Would still prefer to see Kikuchi moved to the pen after deadline. Obviously it depends if they add a starter. I don’t want to see him making starts against the Yankees and Rays down the stretch. And I’m sure the Jays don’t either. He can pitch in mop up or if pitchers fail to go deep into games. Start him low leverage and depending how he looks. Give him a slightly larger role.
I was never a fan of the Shatkins nickname. Shapiro will long outlast Atkins. As his job is way more than just the performance of the Baseball team. He’s been wanting to make these changes and renovations since he took over. So this must be an extremely exciting time for him.
This is a big trade deadline and stretch drive for Atkins though. It could go either way.
I would like to hear way more from Shapiro. Everything he is saying is f***ing music to my ears. I remember listening to Beeston and wanting to drop kick my tv
I would like to see a whole new roof. Not sure how much they can change at the top of the stadium. But making it see through. Maybe making it so more of it can open up would be fantastic. You see the roofs that other teams have. Ours is just a complete eye soar. Only the Trop is worse.
I think they need another Starter regardless. Stripling rarely goes deep into games. We never know what we’re going to get from Berriors, and Gausman has been extremely shaky lately. Only Manoah has been consistent all year.
I wouldn't give Vlad or Bo half of those contracts. On what planet is Vlad worth $400m? I could see a little bit more arguement for Bo because he plays a premium position. Well currently he does. But I don't think either are deserving of those mammoth franchise changing deals. Hard pass.
It's crazy how Baltimore built a shut down bullpen seemingly out of nowhere. It's a big part of their success or atleast charge towards the .500 mark. That offense is relatively mediocre and the rotation is as well.
This is the worst time of year for it lol. I have already blocked over 10 accounts and were still days away from the deadline lol.
A good rule of thumb though. Is no non American player will be unvaccinated. They had to be vaccinated in order to get into the US.
Only American players who have never had to leave the country will be unvaxed.
Ah I see. I wonder what kind of Infield upgrades they could be making. I assuming this is going to include the walls and behind home plate area.
I can see more triples being hit at the Rogers Centre once these renovations are made.
The window for them to get the vaccine is closed. No point in trading for someone who is 15 days away for playing with your team if they get the vaccine today. We need players who can come help now.
I thought we were getting a new stadium. I swear they said something along those lines not even 2 years ago. I definitely read it. This definitely looks better. But I had higher hopes personally. This doesn’t show the concourse which needs a s*** load of work as well.
Has Merryweather? I know Romano has. I was talking consistently but yea you’re not wrong. I just feel the velo needs to crank up. Obviously missing bats is most important.
Bentendo still has a 6 week process to come to Canada if be plans to get 2 doses. Unless he gets Johnson & Johnson he could do it in 15 days.
Doesn’t sound like a substantial return so hopefully that sets the market on not overpaying.
Wow. That was a pretty dominant appearance. Seems like the Jays bullpen is low 90’s to mid 90’s. And everyone elses is mid 90’s to high 90’s.
I can think of one guy in the last decade who hit 100 MPH. The Cardinals had 4 in 2 games.
