  1. No Hatch? Anyone hear the deal with Manoah? Named to the sixty man, then nothing.
  2. Would a Ken Giles for Dustin May trade make sense for both teams? Especially if the Dodgers sign a top FA pitcher, could be fair value.
  3. Someone explain Warmoth’s floor again. I missed it the first time. Was it “ How low can you go”?
  4. Coupla thoughts: Our minds should be eased somewhat by Shi stating Kay is a big strong guy. Will give Tabbie something to drool over. Jays lost the risk premium in this trade big time. Maybe 2024 is the year the Jays are looking to compete. That’s disappointing. I liked Stroman. Don’t mind a little personality, and at the very least, you cannot argue that he didn’t make the most of his talent. Ross Atkins is a nerd. Only hired because he’s a little bit worse than Shapiro in faking a smile. Yeah, Shapiro is busy doing other things, such as other things. Gimme a f***in break. Dunedin. Whoopdedoo. That in three years? Nuff said, for now.
  5. I wonder if the Blue Jays would have drawn 7500 people if they were unfortunate enough to have a home game scheduled this evening?
  6. Yep. Let’s hope Raps don’t Rap tomorrow.
  7. Thanks Ang. I did not know that. Already glad I took the plunge by joining. Beautiful country you’ve got there. Only seen the touristy things, I guess, but I loved it. People there are so nice. Not just my opinion, everyone I have talked to said the same thing. Cheers.
  8. Thanks Pendleton for the welcome. Wasn’t sure how to write that, since the objective here seems to be eat your own. Your namesake could pick it at third. To further expound, I have read these boards, this one and the official one, for so many years I care not to remember. Just never posted. My first question is to Ang, who seems to be a really cool guy. For so many years, in the eighties, San Pedro de Macoris seemed to produce every second SS in baseball. Was it a statistical abnormality or did something change? Don’t worry, I will catch up soon.
  9. Apparently, they plan to tear it up and use it as confetti when the Raps win the Eastern semi’s. Gotta keep Bell happy. Hello. First post. To paraphrase one of my all time favorite movies, “ Looks like the wrong year to join a Blue Jays forum”. Dodgers, Expos, then Blue Jays fan. ( still love the Dodgers) Let’s get this out of the way, yeah I am old, 62, actually, and remember the 63 World Series. It’s a young 62, though. Look forward to talking baseball with all of you.
