    I just want to record which rotations you think are better than the one AA constructed this year (prior to the Stro injury). Also - what elite pitcher took KC to the final last year?
  2. Brownie19
    Unfortunately - that's how Gibbons manages...
  3. Brownie19
    Aren't they the same person?
  4. Brownie19
    While you're crafting your list of better rotations, why don't you learn me on that teams that ARE built to put up runs when they're up against the other teams best pitchers like David Price.
  5. Brownie19
    I'm amazing how you don't even get my point... How many full season's has Wacha pitched?
  6. Brownie19
    Ervin Santana, Andrew Miller and David Robertson sure would have helped our rotation....awesome.
  7. Brownie19
    It's not like he was pitching in Petco last year....Brewer's stadium is a launching pad too.

    I love how you downplay Stroman because he's never gotten through a full season - and then throw out how Wacha is great and is better than anyone in our rotation. The Dodgers have Scott Baker and Carlos Frías in their rotation right now. Is that the type of depth you're talking about? Listing 2 great pitchers and then referring to them as "depth" makes me wonder if you know what the definition of depth is...

    This isn't MLB 2015. Leaves LA with no CFer and EE or Gonzo as a bench bat. Obviously from the Jays perspective, that would be an awesome return....I mean how amazing would it to have any one of those 3? But it's just not happening. Dodgers need pitching with Ryu and McCarthy hurt (just like AA, the Zaidi is a piss poor GM who didn't sign multiple stud veteran FA pitchers to serve as their 6th and 7th starter).
  11. Brownie19
    Wat??? Selfish? Did they not share their poutine with you at Harvey's or something?
  12. Brownie19
    Said every GM in baseball. That's Captain Obvious - you can take a break now. Have a kitkat.
  13. Brownie19
    Do you think the Cards GM and the Dodgers GM are terrible too because Wainwright and Ryu/McCarthy got hurt? Storman Hutch Dickey Buehrle Norris/Sanchez/Estrada That's the rotation AA put together. Care to tell me which rotations in baseball you consider to be good enough? Which ones didn't rely on unproven arms or aging veterans? Which ones had ample depth to deal with major injuries to their best pitchers? I'd love to see your list.
  14. Brownie19
    AA also bought that Stroman voodoo doll and stabbed it in the knee!!! fire him!!
  15. Brownie19
    Does anyone hate defense and/or baseball more than Hanley Ramirez?
  16. Brownie19
    If we are sticking Valencia and Goins in LF - what about Smoak? The man needs some at bats but is glued to the pine with E5 and Jose at 1st and DH for the foreseeable future.
  17. Brownie19
    Wasn't someone pumping his tires this spring?
  18. Brownie19
    Agreed - get your best hitters more at bats. This is close to the "optimal" lineup that JFaS suggested...
  19. Brownie19
    I'd still have Hoffman ranked above Castro.
  20. Brownie19
    Why is it so difficult to realise that some fans were caught up in the hype and feel good stories re: Norris and his van this spring while overlooking the fact his command would likely hold him back from being an effective ML pitcher this year? It's a real thing too - which is evident when you see people talking about him "getting his control back" instead of saying "the control issues he's always had are really holding him back right now"....I guess kudos to the jays for selling it to the fans. That said - I've been flogging this horse for a bit too long and I will take you advise and shut'er down. Thanks for calling me out. I had a sip of the kool-aid myself, even if I thought the van stuff was stupid.
  21. Brownie19
    Getting it back? He never really had it to start with. This was a glaring issue going into the season that everyone seemingly ignored because he had a cool beard and lived in a van.
  22. Brownie19
    You're suggesting we deal Hoffman for 1/2 a year of Cueto (say a 4.6 WAR pitcher). We dealt 2 good prospects for a full season of Dickey at $5M coming off a 4.9 WAR season. And with Dickey - we had a much better chance of extending him (which we did). That's the comparison I'm making.
  23. Brownie19
    As compared to trading Hoffman for 1/2 a year of Cueto? Are you too stupid to follow the context of the conversation?
  24. Brownie19
    Something tell me we should be able to get someone under control for more than half a year if we were willing to deal Hoffman. See Hamels, Cole.
  25. Brownie19
    If this is true - why do so many people on here continually bring up how bad the Dickey deal was? (the complaints re: Marlins deal should mainly relate to salary issues).
