Colorado is asking for an "Adam Eaton" type return for Charlie Blackmon. Let me see, Older Less years of control Less track record Career year matches Eaton's average year Idiots. This pisses me off. Coloardo is a decent fit for us trade wise - yet they appear to be operated by relatives of Dave Stewart FFS.

General 2016 Blue Jays discussion thread

I like the symbol they came up with. -
Speaking of Blackmon...has anyone noticed the similarities between Pompey & Blackmon? Good BB%, Low K% throughout their minor league careers. High wRC+ in A and AA, which dropped in AAA. Both run the bases well, yet aren't excellent defensively. Blackmon developed late (in relative terms) and obviously I'm not suggesting Pompey will do the same, but I thought it was eerily interesting. http://i.imgur.com/uPw4aPP.jpg http://i.imgur.com/IZKJ03B.jpg I certainly wouldn't give up Stroman for Blackmon...but I do think he'd be a great trade candidate if you could get him for the equivalent of the 2 WAR player he was in 2014-2015 (Steamers projects him at only 1.3 WAR this year).....and then you hope the improvements he made last year stick. If we got Blackmon at a reasonable price, I'd be comfortable going into the season with Upton/Pompey in LF.

They don't need Smoak. They have Desmond Seriously though, adding Smoak into a deal for one of their OFers (allowing Desmond to play the OF - opening up 1st base for Smoak) is a pretty good fit for the Jays.
-
I wouldn't get to worried about this. Reporting to the media in the middle of December that Smoak is going to be glued to the bench because he's s*** is not a good idea (even if it's true).
-
I mean once they're in the US.
-
Christ - just make them watch GGG, Chopped and Cut-throat Kitchen all the time like I do. I can cook a mean steak sandwich on a branding iron with one arm tied behind my back now! Seriously though - you'd think the Jays would do a bit more to help these guys adjust. And is that a picture of Ang?
-
Can you elaborate on why you think it's a mistake?
-
It appears we are super horny for LH outfielder.
-
I could point out the Smoak extension and completely derail your point.....but I still disagree with your overall premise as it is.
-
If the comp pick is valued at $10M, then full market value for Jose is probably 2 years $30M (assuming he could give us 4.5 WAR in 2 years). I'd probably do that....as long as the "other" OF we get is strong defensively (Dyson or Puig please)
-
Pillar can't hit either and he provides a ton of value to this team. There's a chance if given 550 PA's that Pompey could provide as much value as Revere or Dyson could (2 names often mentioned as options).
-
Like the Angels...
-
Would Osuna fetch Conforto?
-
Valbuena in a platoon at 1st with Pearce with Pearce platooning with Upton in LF (Pearce plays vs. RHP) would probably be very effective and provide a significant amount of versatility to the team. Ideally you'd pair that with a RF who's above average defensively. Christ that would have paired well with Fowler playing RF. Puig & Dyson would both be good fits in that scenario now.
-
Shatkins already wisely stated they would not offer player options or opt outs.
-
You stick him at 1st and let Pearce play the OF...
-
Excellent job slamming home my impeccable setup...
-
how many times have we seen once elite, but now 37 year old players coming off a poor year simply continue to decline before retiring?
-
Just think - we can collect 2 comp picks for Jose and EE (valued at $20M) and sign Valbuena to a 2 year $18M deal...it's like getting him for free - and he was significantly better than Jose last year. It's a win-win.

-
My phone just said the Jays are unwilling to give Jose a multi-year deal.
-
No it's not. The top 10 picks are protected. Those teams would surrender their next highest pick. http://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2015/10/explaining-the-qualifying-offer-system.html Rockies surrendered the 11th overall pick to sign Ian Desmond. They are dumb.
-
gezz - I wonder why.
