  1. For a backup C, anything other than good defence, being a good receiver is gravy. Another good move by Rosco! Extend Atkins now😜
  2. I get the sense this off-season is now turning towards a buyers market. The orgs patience and unwillingness to over pay may start paying dividends, starting with the Santander signing. Maybe Bregman doesn't get AAV he's looking for? Maybe Alonso has to settle for something other than the optimal outcome. Could be good news for the Jays.
  3. Seems to have a good head on his shoulders. Likeable guy. The Jays need some of his high energy and enthusiasm after a losing season. Said he will play "wherever the skipper needs me." Feeling pretty good about this signing.
  4. Springer batting leadoff in 2025 tells us that Schneider has not really developed as a manager. You would think that after the past few seasons he has learned to break away from his traditional thinking and become more dynamic in his approach. He has to change it up or we may be in for a long season. Keep doing what you've always done.....
  5. Over at the Orioles hangout... The Santander appreciation thread: https://forum.orioleshangout.com/topic/56195-the-anthony-santander-appreciation-thread/ Surprisingly magnanimous.
  6. Considering that Wilner has turned on old Ross, kind of makes me want to pull for Atkins even more. Yes, Wilner is that unlikeable.
  7. Kind of funny to see posts about Ross Atkins contingency plan. In case you couldn't figure it out last season...
  8. If he gives the Jays 35+ knocks a year then it will be a successful signing. Anything less, considering his one dimensional utility, well, not much to get excited about. A few more pieces to go and we may have something.
  9. You know it was an absolute s*** show when other executives around the league are left dumbfounded. From the Athletic, It was a dubious strategy, especially without a deal in place, prompting one rival executive to say, “My phone has been blowing up all day with ‘wtf Jays.’” An executive still involved in the process took note of the Blue Jays adding to the pool of money they could offer Sasaki, but took some solace in the fact that Wolfe had given the remaining clubs similar instructions. But the Blue Jays’ motivation was clear: They hoped that their push for Sasaki would end differently from their failed runs at Ohtani and Juan Soto, which only teased the fan base and further framed the franchise as perpetual runners-up.
  10. Slander implies false statements were made. None of it was slander. All of it was/is deserved.
  11. I miss reading Olerud363 off the wall posts. I'm sure he would post a screed on this shitshow. Wherever you are, start posting again.
  12. How many f***in cues does this team need?
  13. This is embarrassing if true. How is it that other orgs had a line on this and not the Jays? When/if Atkins ever gets released by the Jays, he will never get another opportunity as gm of another team. Well maybe if the Angels come calling.
  14. Man, that's dark. Atkins is at home tonight watching WW2 films about the USA dropping atomic bombs on Japan.
  15. Jays are like a drowning man grasping at Straws. ....sorry had to say it.
  16. We announce Vlad to 3b after Petey signs. Then trade his fat caboose out of here.
  17. I don't think Cohen is f***ing around. This guy wants a World Series title like now for the Mets. I could see him trading for Vlad then extending him for monster contract.
  18. Even so, with his swing profile it is not unreasonable to expect 25 hr per season is it?
  19. Yeah, I can't picture Shapiro downplaying his proclivity for sexual assault. Let him rot.
  20. CD is going to be giving Olerud a run for his money as most eccentric poster.
  21. Are the Jays one of three finalists or just one of three teams on pursuing him? Big difference.
  22. That's the point. They don't win the WS even if they do all that.
  23. Well, it shows that they are talking at least.
  24. Sure this is sound player management. But safe high floor guys don't include, Luke's, Tiedmann, Orelvis, Barriera, Maroudis, Bloss. Not by my reckoning. I'm willing to be corrected here but I just don't see it. Perhaps Nimmala becomes a thing but...
  25. Well I would dispute that signing Vlad is the best case scenario, there are strong opinions both ways. Given that they sign Vlad, who would you list as a pretty solid core Max, please don't list Gimenez, Varsho, Kirk.
