  1. I appreciate your nuanced take on this Jim. However, there really is no room for voters to not vote for him using the merit argument. Might as well abolish the HOF if a pitcher like Schilling does not have quals. I remember him dominating the Blue Jays in 93. Think about the offense on that team and he was able to handle them. Just one iota I remember. Schillings career is HOF, no if ands or doubts.
  2. He was a six-time All-Star, three-time World Series champion, World Series MVP and National League Championship Series MVP. He finished runner-up for the Cy Young Award three times. He played 20 years in the majors and finished with a 3.46 ERA and 3,116 strikeouts. He is one of 19 pitchers to record 3,000 or more strikeouts. The only retired pitchers in the club who are not in the Hall of Fame are Schilling, Clemens and CC Sabathia. Justin Verlander and Max Scherzer are still playing. Curt Schilling earned runs allowed in 19 career postseason starts: 2 1 6 0 0 1 1 1 1 2 1 2 6 1 0 0 5 2 1 2 ER or fewer in 16 of 19 starts. He is the the best big-game pitcher of my generation an unequivocally belongs in the Hall of Fame.
  3. https://syndication.bleacherreport.com/amp/2634131-curt-schilling-posts-anti-transgender-comments-on-facebook.amp.html This about covers it. He prefaced the Muslim comment with “Extreme”. I think it is ok to describe those who fly planes into office buildings extreme. He has an opinion about bathrooms.. I guess you are not allowed to express it. He lost his ESPN job and that is their right. Hall of Fame should be on merit unless your are a serious criminal or pedophile etc. 90% of the country agrees with one statement and at least 50% plus with the other. Yet he is getting cancelled from the HOF
  4. Some BS that Schilling is getting the shaft.
  5. I see a solid 5 with that list, though I would prefer Bassit. However, I don't see solid depth. I don't consider Kickuchi and White solid starter depth. Trying to skate by on 5 SPs IF we even pulled something like that off (the top 5) is not a recipe for success. We need more depth even if that top 5 comes to fruition.
  6. Agree. If we could sign Bassit in FA and trade for Lopez or Perez that would be a very nice rotation!!
  7. Apart from Reynolds, the more I look at it, I think AZ or MIA makes the most sense. Guys like Lopez or if we could pry Perez and AZ has a lot both in OF and pitching I like, with Varsho being ideal on the position player side.
  8. As has been pointed out, this is a newer regime. I believe Cherington and others who ended up there had a lot to do with why the Blue Jays are good now. The Pirates have a lot in the pipe or on the cusp and I think when it is the right time, they will make the moves. I wouldn’t be surprised to see them competitive this year.
  9. Talking smack about Lowe is fighting words for Laika. Choose your weapon.
  10. They are lacking pitching. They are trying to get some. What’s the point in Semien and Seager etc if not.
  11. I wasn't aware of the Club House issues. I do know if Winker gets right, he can rake.. I think the Brewers get more upside/risk. I knew the Mariners needed a 2b....
  12. I have tried to pry CFs from L54 before... Not happening... It's like trying to take cake from a fat kid;)
  13. Actions speak louder then words. I hadn't heard it be, "The Priority" Teo trade makes me a believer... Maybe..
  14. Love to hear those two words, "Run Prevention" as our priority... Boingggg!
  15. LOL Kolten Wong..
  16. Assuming all stay healthy, yes. That list also looks like a frequent flier list of the IL
  17. Not saying we should cut him. My point was/is, did anyone really expect him to be BOTH healthy and good at this point and term of the contract. If you did, then you are definitely an optimist...
  18. Did anyone really expect a healthy and good Ryu at this point? I know I didn't..
  19. This Team run prevention (Pitching and defense) when we start the 23 season needs to surpass the offensive value of Teo and where we were at last season and then it is a good deal for the overall Team build. Too early to make any assesment, but a def step in the right direction.
  20. I have Witt, Semien and Edman to play SS... Should I aquire another?
  21. I agree BTS. I think Jim should trade him to me in LOD at a discount reflecting the above.
  22. Who is our 4th starter if only one spot open? Remember the goal is to make the team better by ST, then it was last year. I hope to hell their plan is not just to plug in guys to fill the spot. I wanted us to sign Montero and Bassit in addition to trades. Montero is off the table, but Bassit is still out there. Miami and AZ have pitchers to move...
  23. Threads and threads and polls talking about OF... Hardly any talk about SPs... We need at minimum of two solid 2 SPs and more pitching or having Mike Trout in CF won't matter...
  24. The teams with the top 4 defensive UZR all won their divisions. Teams hitting their way to Championships is an outlier. There is no doubt the Jays need to improve run prevention to take it to the next level and be more consistent. Teo was a step in the right direction. Houston won/dominated due to their run prevention, not their offense.
  25. The prospect rankings vs real difference in talent is negligible when you are talking top 25. Jo Adel was #1 a few years ago and Dylan Carlson was 15-20 and I would much rather have had Carlson.. Kelenic was ranked #1 and not doing so hot yet... I can go on and on. Thomas is young, he didn't do well in his first go at the majors, it happens. Thomas has good historic perifials and fills a position of need for us. To rephrase, I would be happy with Thomas for Moreno. I don't think, and you seem to agree, we would get a pitching spec worth a s*** as well. I would ultimatley LOVE Varsho... Don't see it happening from the D-Backs side, but that would be sweet.
