  1. The red on red blue jay symbol on the jersey makes me want to vomit. Art's post is spot on. The White, Grey and Blue jerseys are magnificent and they should stick with them.
  2. I remember reading an article suggesting he was unlucky last year and some of his peripherals (spin rates maybe?) suggest better results. I suspect he wants to start and would improve any number of rotations around the league; however, I'd welcome him to the Jays if that were ever a fit.
  3. 2016 K% was only about 1% below his career. It looks more like 2015 was a spike to me. I think he'd be a solid piece, although relievers with low GB% scare me a bit in the RC.
  4. Yikes - I didn't see that in the photo the first time I glanced at it. Thanks for making me go back and look. At least it's not gory. I thought he'd be skinnier than that TBH.
  5. They also have AJ Reed. I see absolutely no reason why the Astros would choose to trade for Smoak instead of giving Reed the opportunity.
  6. Steroids do a body good.
  7. Strong disagree if guys like Walker and Edmonds aren't going to get in.
  8. Good news on a couple of fronts: 1. This hopefully will be a 1 year thing in celebration of 150 years for Canada. 2. They appear to be using red undershirts. Question - will this replace the blue jersey's this year? The sportsnet app feed I read called the red jerseys their "alternative for 2017" - which is what I thought the blue ones were...or are the blue ones their 3rd jersey or something stupid?
  9. A lot more players would accumulate SB numbers if their managers allowed them to run freely while being caught 33% of the time. Vlady stole 181 and was caught 94 time. He was a terrible base runner and it would be very short sighted to factor in the number of SB's he had without acknowledging he probably shouldn't have been attempting most of them.
  10. http://www.fangraphs.com/statss.aspx?playerid=14697&position=P Did his fastball velocity really jump from 89.2 to 93.5 last year? wow. Holy extreme flyball pitcher too!
  11. CJ Cron suxxxxxxxx. Valbeuna's going to play 1st most of the time.
  12. NNNOOOOOOOOO. ffs.
  13. Deeper than our bullpen depth?
  14. I hate the look of the blue undershirts with the red jersey. Hopefully they at least get red undershirts
  15. Whoever it is that lives beside Heyman should go over and punch him in the face.
  16. What's with this new trend? It's bizarre. Next he'll get $150K in bonuses if the Jays sell 4M hot dogs in a season.
  17. That's Phillip Humber. I can see why they wouldn't want to list his name.
  18. Yeah - we complained a few days ago that it's a f***ing joke that Vlady is going to get in on the first ballot while Walker and Edgar won't (let alone Clemens, Bonds, etc.).
  19. Guys like AJ Pollack, Carlos Gomez and Lorenzo Cain have already had peaks higher than David Ortiz. The only thing I can say about Ortiz is he's had a pretty big impact on the game (couple of WS with the Red Sox after 100 year drought, DR influence....f***, I don't know).
  20. Except Vlady probably should have DH'd for most of his career because he was f***ing horrific in the field. Edger > Vlady all day long bud. Get your weird eye checked.
  21. um...I think you nailed it. They appear to be plugging holes with short term deals until some of the prospects are ready to contribute. If they are able to sign Valbeuna or Moss and maybe a bullpen arm or two, then with the advancement of Stro, Sanchez, Travis, etc. and a full season of Liriano, there's a chance this team is better than last years.....all while stockpiling prospects and without handcuffing the budget long term.
