  1. Bonuses in the US are considered supplemental income. The first million is 22% then 37% Federal for anything over a million. A bonus is also taxed on state of residence, regardless where the employer is. If you buy a house or pay off a large chunk of a house, or pre- pay your property taxes, with your bonus, you can deduct that amount off your total tax liability as well as other write offs.
  2. Mike Carp would be some OF depth on a minors deal..
  3. No, not unless Springer can pitch.
  4. This makes the Jay Bruce trade look like basic foreplay.... I was done and smoking a cigarette and woke up and found out it was just a dream..
  5. Holy BLUE BALLS for the BLUE JAYS Batman! WTF!!!???
  6. Rumors are Red Sox and Baltimore are talking to the Marlins about sending Benetendi and Santander respectively.. You know it will be pitching coming back.. We need to get in there ASAP and cock block them and get some of the Marlins pitching!!!
  7. We are now a hitter rich team. There are pitcher rich teams that need hitters. Blue Jays, meet the Marlins, Indians ,Pirates and Royals.
  8. It is obviously a pre-cursor move..... No sense in worrying yet, they are moving pieces on a chess board, let's see what their final moves are..
  9. Yup, probably some "wall"... We are citizens of the world and should have access to EVERYTHING!!
  10. I thought the question was, who has the the top offenses in baseball, or if we signed Brantley tomorrow. I didn't take the question to be who projects to have in the future or for age group etc. If we did that we need to include guys like Kelenic, JRod, Vaughn etc.. Not saying Vlad will not get there or that for a 21 yr old he is not decent. But he so far has not been someone that moves the needle overall to this point. The Jays have 4-5 players that are better hitters (so far) then Vlad.
  11. A lot of speculation that if the Jays do a deal for an SP from the Reds, it would include Moustakas coming back to play 3b and to eat some of his $$. Not a bad thing at all...
  12. His EV so far kills a LOT of worms, I agree with that.
  13. Some guys on MLB radio are saying *9/10 Brantley goes to TO, the issue is only 2 yrs vs 3yrs.. Other guys saying 7/10... Regardless, seems high probability with only a an issue of years... FWIW *One of the guys supposedly has contacts in his agency..
  14. 66th in wRC+.. Willy Adames had a higher wRC+ than Vlad. He will probably get there, but he is not an elite hitter yet, to consider when comparing elite offenses.
  15. It is difficult, but Miami has done it two years in a row. They are deep and need offense. Musgrove is not an old man. Indians want an OF and catcher and and still have a lot of pitching even after moving Clevinger and Carassco.. SD still has tons.. A guy like Morejon with no spot in the rotation..
  16. Good question Jim... I think Kendrick might be best cost vs reward. Tailion and a few more from the Pirates. I think Gray from the Reds might cost too much. Not interested in Gray from Colorado. I might try targeting a few younger just feet wet or near MLB ready the next tier down in orgs like Miami, KC, Cleveland, SD, Pirates.. I think Miami and KC have some surplus I like.. In other words, instead of using an LGR jr to get one SP, package him and get two or three lesser guys who are near MLB ready or have dipped their toes.
  17. Coincidence they fire their Alpha male in the AM and Springer signs in the PM..???
  18. I usually try and think about baseball to avoid this.. In this case, baseball is the cause..
  19. Not using projections, unless I am then adding Vaughn and guys like that to the equation. A lot of teams have guys that produced like Vlad did/has so far. We both forgot Atlanta, the Braves should be in the top teams conversation also.
  20. I didn't count Vlad, as so far he is name only. If Vlad becomes the guy we thought, then that changes the equation. As of now I was only considering. Teo, LGR, Bichette, Biggio, Springer and a hypothetical Brantley.
