  1. It’s a flawed process if you look at only how they turned out now. Specs are an asset. Although a spec might be worth nothing or very little currently, if you used the past value and traded them for something that is of value now, then you made your mlb team better via the draft.
  2. I would vote Stottlemeyer’s Bloody Tampon. That guy seems like he is in a pressure cooker and coco loco..
  3. Weight loss doesn’t necessarily equal significant cardio improvement for the short term. Overall, significant cardio is needed for a pitcher throwing the ball 90 plus repetitively and then sustaining that over optimally 6 innings or plus. Weight loss will help, but how he loses that weight will make a difference. If you are Josh Hader, you can do sprints all day long and give it 110% for an inning. SPs need to have a balance between short burst cardio and long term to sustain the short burst for 6 plus innings.
  4. That is what Crossfit is basically and Core centric. However, back to my premise as an outsider. It appears he was going for the bulk muscle/hey, look how much I bench method vs what he should be doing as an MLB pitcher on the new clock.
  5. I remember being in Denver for Jays series in mid 2000s. It was in the early afternoon before a night game and I saw Halladay and one other ICR jogging in the neighborhood near the team hotel and not to far from the stadium. I have no idea, but I don’t get the sense Manoh is out distance jogging prior to games and at altitude.
  6. There is muscle/bulk working out and cardio working out. Manoah needs to do lighter weights more reps and more core/cardio workout. He looked gassed. Benching 300lbs doesn’t matter with a pitch clock.
  7. $$$$ Industry chatter is they want to cut budget. Maybe to the point of being below the luxury tax.
  8. Another Skull and Bones guy. Not important he was a pitcher. Most important is he is Ivy league.
  9. That article doesn’t have my favorite scenario. Trade Vlad Jr for Soto. Padres save a lot of money and we get better, change culture. Yankees are already in discussions with Padres, we better act fast.
  10. The saying is just make the playoffs and a team can get streaky. A streaky team can go either way obviously. However, by the fact they are a streaky team, shows they can win in streaks. The Jays longest winning streak of the year was 6 games, once, they also had one 5 game winning streak. Compared to other teams, such as the Ranger and Diamond Backs, who each had many more streaky winning periods. As far as the Blue Jays were concerned, it was unlikely a team that had shown over 162 games that it could not even go on many sustained winning streaks, would all of a sudden go on one in the playoffs.
  11. On paper, maybe, with a capital M. Each of them was very inconsistent and none of them were firing on all cylinders at the same time.
  12. 2 run game bro. Phils have a lot of bashers, ain’t close to over.
  13. They teach you to make the turn and go to 2b if the throw goes through. I have never been taught or seen taught, go regardless if they cut or not. You make the turn with the ability to get back to 1b or go to 2b. Big difference between drawing a throw or cut and sacrificing yourself. You are not taught to sacrifice an out in that situation. They would have cut it, the run would have scored, the Phils would prevent the runner going to 2b and you have two outs runner on 1b.
  14. Carroll was basically at the plate when they cut it. They were going to cut regardless to prevent the runner to go to 2nd if he just rounded first but stayed within range or they saw him dancing out in no man’s land. Point being they were going to cut regardless and that’s what the players on the field would be shouting based on Caroll’s proximity to the plate.
  15. If the fielding team thinks they can get the runner at home with 2 outs and no one else on base they will. Regardless of what the runner rounding first is doing. If you cut the ball in that situation it is because you know you can’t get the runner at home. Two out with Carrol running.. You don’t need to sacrafice yourself for nothing to get him to score.
  16. Blue Jays system base running showing it’s ugly head.
  17. A lot of studs, leadership and steady hands at the helm in that series. Blue Jays have a lot of work cut out for them. We don’t intimidate anyone..
  18. Garcia is a stud. Solid leadership also.
  19. His body shape/type affects his mechanics.. So they have a symbiotic relationship IMO.
  20. I don’t understand why we can’t have more than 3 SPs in the SP spots?? I voted against the change. However, even if it was going to pass, I understood it to be only changing RP slots to P, not restricting the amount of SPs you can start???
  21. I will give him high marks for his handling of the media and the stadium renovations so far. However, he is not a design architect nor the Media relations VP. At the end of the day he needs to deliver a WS. Going to be much harder next year. Where do you stop saying, ok, one more year…?
  22. If you guys are done filatiating Shapiro. What does it say about their process that it took them 164 games to recognize there is an offensive problem and communication/informational flow issue and need the off season to deep dive and fix it. The issue were very apparent by May. Nothing changed by July, nothing changed end of July, nor into October. Failure to identify and process flows that fail to adapt accordingly. Successful companies are able to pivot or use the two way door approach to decision making. Wasted season, wasted time in the window. hi
  23. The Blue Jays offense can't even hold the jock strap of 4 of the 5 teams left and might be able to sniff the 5th team. We would have only been postponing the inevitable if we made it by the Twins with our pitching.....
  24. No he does not.
  25. Isn't Gibson better then Kremer...?
