  1. I don't think so. I keep running him out there every ~ 5 days until he can figure it out, and the game slows down for him. Or he gets hurt. Probably the latter.
  2. I didn't realize this until just now, but Eric Thames and Justin Smoak are both on the same Japanese ball team...both seem to be having a good season out east. https://www.baseball-reference.com/register/team.cgi?id=35df3a92
  3. He better have.
  4. I agree with you. Manoah and Pearson should be in the SP rotation as soon as the service time clock thing is passed (for Manoah). I keep getting into it with Mike Wilner on Twitter re: this. I say play the kids, Monoah, Austin and Groshans now. Especially if the guys on the roster suck. I would rather the kids suck and earn valuable experience than having a s***** vet who has a low ceiling.
  5. I don't think I poo pooed it, in fact I liked it IIRC (could be wrong). But now, at least for me, it makes all the sense in the world. We get a rental+ who really solidifies a position that has been a bit of a nightmare, and Biggio can be used where he adds more value, plugging holes everywhere. And, as a bonus, it lets the kids mature in the minors a little more and gets rid of Panik. Seattle, while overperforming, isn't really a contender. Maybe we could grab Seager for a couple of B prospects? No idea what the trade world will be like this year.
  6. Good article on SN today: https://www.sportsnet.ca/mlb/article/way-early-trade-deadline-planning-blue-jays/ Kyle Seager would be a great add. I wonder if his option would kick in for 2022 automatically if traded? That would be awesome. With Seager on 3B, Biggio could be the super sub, and Panik maybe loses his job.
  7. I almost have a 12 wRC+ so far this season.
  8. Newish GM, and a couple kids ready to step up and have impact. And Ohtani can DH when he doesn't pitch. And, this is the fallout after the meeting where essentially (and reportedly) Pujols refused a part time position.
  9. I agree with you. I would rather promote Manoah after the service clock deadline has passed, honestly.
  10. I think Kay is the answer, long term answer, for one rotation spot.
  11. Whew, good. And yeah, I meant compared to the new trainer.
  12. Does anyone else find her incredibly hot?
  13. I am a little more concerned that we will be going 0-for at the catcher position for the foreseeable future.
  14. I second your thoughts! Great way to sum it up...it was sort of an annoyed feeling I had on the subconscious level.
  15. He was also Tom Sellick's replacement in Mr. Baseball. A must watch if you haven't.
  16. Without Googling I think Bill Caudill was a bad signing. Adjusting for current dollars it was a huge contract at the time.
  17. Mike Wilner said that that there was a lengthy investigation that resulted in a definitive result. MLB would not have done this unless there was a clear trail.
  18. I agree. If he is not < 95% and he re-injures himself I will be super angry. He is ours for 5-years. He doesn't have to come back before he is ready. Hopefully he was held back because Scherzer.
  19. Yeah, I was really puzzled, too. Maybe they didn't want him back versus Scherzer? That is what I am thinking now.
  20. it's a pain in the ass. Sorry. I will show myself out.
  21. I think the $500K salary/year is thanks enough. And the per diems probably help.
  22. A few days ago they (The SN/Jays panel) threw up some numbers and graphics that showed he was either number one, or close to it, in terms of defensive metrics for catchers for the league. I haven't actually looked at the fWAR. Throwing runners out if super important, but so are a million other things as catcher. But, in sum, Jansen's offense has to improve. He's like the auto-out on a slowpitch team that only has 9 players show. Kirk hasn't been much better, but he is starting to barrel up his contact at least. A team strength going into this season is weirdly one of the weaknesses, albeit with a SSS. But if I am triaging, I fix 3B first.
  23. I know this doesn't work, but I would play Espinal at 3B as much as possible. I like him there defensively, a lot, and I think he has a shot to be a plus bat. But we will be sent down as soon as Teo and George are back up. Then, more Biggio! Yay! #noodle.
  24. Jansen is so bad offensively that when I am watching a game a few minutes behind live on PVR I will fast forward his at bat. There is no reason to watch an auto-out.
  25. I disagree - all three of those guys would scuffle at 3B.
