    One Day at a Time, Great series.

    Not bad use of AI.

    How long have you waited for this?

    I think he would be one of my high leverage guys. I cannot believe he touched 97 mph recently.

    Someone DMed me that Spanky is the most blocked profile on this forum. I blocked him after he called me "mate" too often, like he's from the UK or something.

    I keep thinking about the Angels and Mike Trout. Not the same thing, but they gave him a big contract and just kept on messing up on all fronts. Such as waste.

    Key contracts expiring after 2025 According to MLB / team-reporting, here are some of the major Blue Jays salaries set to expire after the 2025 season: Chris Bassitt — ~$22 million MLB.com+1 Bo Bichette — ~$17.6 million MLB.com+1 Max Scherzer — ~$15 million (one-year deal) MLB.com+2BetMGM+2 Chad Green — ~$10.5 million MLB.com Erik Swanson — ~$3 million MLB.com If you sum those up alone, you get roughly $68–69 million of payroll relief (gross) just from those five names.

    I’m not sure people realize just how much the luxury tax mechancis might be restricting what the Jays can commit long term. The Jays barely avoided a tax penalty in 2024 by trimming payroll (ending ~$233.9M), and going over the 2025 threshold (~$241M) opens them up to stiff penalties, especially if they do it repeatedly. Right now, management has some breathing room — they’re projected ~$13M under the 2025 limit after arbitration and contract commitments. But a big extension for Bo might blow that wiggle room away, risking them going into the second- or third-tier tax zone. That’s a serious deterrent. In short, I think an extension is unlikely. But who knows.

    They Jays have some interesting free agents after this season. I think the Jays make a strong offer for Justin Bieber. I hope the Jays have strong interest in bringing back Dominguez. Before last night's game, I thought Scherzer was washed. Now I am interested in a 1-year deal to bring him back. I do not think Bassitt comes back, and I think Berrios may opt out (IIRC). So 1 more year of Max may really work well. IKF and France will not be back. I don't think the Jays can afford a long-term Bo contract, but I have no idea what happens there.
  12. Ryu In My House
    I agree. I think there is a decent shot. I don't know what gets him, 5-year, $125M? I think the FO has to be commended for signing and trading for character guys, guys who are great in the clubhouse and great team players. I think Bieber fits that bill. I strongly suspect there is mutual interest to get a deal done.

    I would be surprised if any starter gets more than two times through the batting order.
  14. Ryu In My House
    Why does Vladdy seem to dislike the Jays so much? Did they screw his dad over somehow? I legit don't know the story.
  15. Ryu In My House
    I'd keep Nance over Scherzer, but I guess they may want that "veteran presence". IMO, Scherzer is absolutely washed. I honestly wish they would stop talking about his sage role in the clubhouse.
  16. Ryu In My House
    Any guess on the ALCS roster? I think the Jays have until Sunday morning to figure s*** out. I will bet Bichette is back on. IKF off? Bassitt back on. I think Scherzer is left off. It will be interesting.
  17. Ryu In My House
    Laurer is for sure better. Scherzer is washed, for one, and the Yankees typically bring 5+ lefties to the batting order.
  18. Ryu In My House
    If we're up 3-2 going to the bottom of the 8th, I would actually run Yesavage out there for two innings.
  19. Ryu In My House
    It is one of the best comeback years I can remember. I was actually okay with the FO releasing him over the winter if they had decided to do that. I thought he was washed.
  20. Ryu In My House
    Just reading through some of the articles, and listening to the talking heads last night makes me believe that Bo feels ready to play, despite some results of imaging and other diagnostics, and they want to confirm he can't hurt himself anymore by playing ASAP with the information from a second opinion. At least I hope that is the case. I guess we will find out soon enough.
  21. Ryu In My House
    I am still stunned we got Fisher for Cavan Biggio. Fisher really could be a big part of this bullpen for a long time. Just, wow.
  22. Ryu In My House
    Bo is getting a second opinion with a specialist regarding his knee sprain - the results will determine the length of his IL stint. Blair and Barker say this is not good news.
  23. Ryu In My House
    Interesting you ask that. I am unsure, but he seems to easily understand English instructions when I see him on TV.
  24. Ryu In My House
    I feel like this is a question that's been discussed often, and I realize this is hypothetical... If Bo extends, does the Jays middle infield get better with Gimenez at SS and Bo at 2B? MLB AI thinks so... Projected Jays Middle Infield (Giménez SS + Bo 2B) Defense: Much stronger, above league average. WAR: Could add +2 to +3 WAR over a season compared to current setup, largely due to Giménez’s glove and Bo’s positional realignment.

    I am still shocked at Springer's turnaround. I actually thought DFAing him over the winter was a tenable option. It's like found money.
