  1. The Philadelphia guys are f***ing horrible.
  2. McKinney having a strong spring, has a real shot to break with the Brewers and contribute. https://madison.com/wsj/sports/baseball/professional/billy-mckinney-doing-his-best-to-impress-brewers-brass/article_669cf27d-d60f-5e51-9505-5ea783e199aa.html?utm_campaign=snd-autopilot&utm_medium=social&utm_source=twitter_ In other news, the Pirates signed PED user and domestic abuser Steven Wright. Wow.
  3. So what is with Pompey, too many concussions? What was Lawrie's issue, besides being a little dumb. He had arm and back issues, IIRC. Man, when Lawrie first came up for us he was unbelievable.
  4. I was just looking to see what Dalton Pompey was up to. I was surprised to find out he is sort of out of baseball. Hasn't played since 2020. And he wasn't signed by anyone for 2021. He's 28. Huh. I thought he had a shot somewhere. In other former Canuck baseball player news, Brett Lawrie has been out of professional baseball for 5 years now. I really liked both players back in the day. Kind of depressing.
  5. I've never been too much of a Davis fan, but to his credit he keeps producing. And has plus defense. Last year I wouldn't have cared if he was DFAed. Now I can see him as a long term piece on this roster.
  6. So carry 7 arms in the 'pen until then? Maybe. I do not think there is a prayer McGuire clears waivers. I couldn't care less, honestly. He is as meh as they get. At least in our system where we have all the catchers.
  7. No kidding! Joe Panik will definitely be playing. And that 30-year old 1B who no one gives a s*** about.
  8. No kidding, I will bet for every deal that is made, 9 are seriously pondered by 2+ teams. That would make for a great read, a book on the near deals.
  9. That is exactly the analogy I was thinking of but held back. For the kids.
  10. Does anyone have the Sportsnet ST broadcast schedule? That may be a decent idea to make a sticky in this forum. I took a capture of Hazel Mae's tweet a week or so ago, but there has to be a live link that stays current
  11. He seems like a guy with two decent pitches, and high velo. Nice to have him back. https://www.athleticsnation.com/2020/12/11/22169007/mlb-rule-5-draft-results-scouting-report-dany-jimenez-oakland-as He's older at 27-years old.
  12. No kidding about the catch...he had it at least 3 seconds. And, now I was watching live so dunno for sure, it looks like the runner was tossed out at home. Annoying play all around.
  13. Marquez has such a good team-friendly contract. He is honestly the perfect fit. It would burn up a lot of our prospect capital, but four years of a really good SP. He, plus Ryu and Pearson and our offense give us a shot at greatness. I think I pull that trigger. It could be a ~ 3 + win differential.
  14. Jesus I would do that EVERY time, and I really like Kay. But c'mon, that is too light. I wish, but they would want way more than that. German is a guy who is worth > 3 WAR a season. Four more seasons. He might even have a no-trade clause. The Jays will HAVE to throw in SWR or Manoah. I love both prospects, but they are prospects. I guess what I am saying is this; he has a 4-year window that runs perfectly with our kids. We may have to burn some of our future for the now. I know we all sting from the Dickey trade, but that is just a risk teams have to make sometimes. The best trades are those that leave both teams hurting a little.
  15. What sort of monster deal would it take to trade for German Marquez? He would absolutely be a perfect trade target. The Rockies are horrible and rebuilding, or need to, and Marquez could be ours until 2025. He pitches way better away from Colorado, which also bodes well. Assuming Pearson is damn near untouchable, would it be SWR, Manoah, and Groshans? Is that even enough?
  16. If we get him this offseason is a complete success.
  17. And an offer is objectively the most important step to signing a player.
  18. If need be I would sign Walker to a 2-year, but I honestly think Manoah or SWR could be as good as Walker this season. Thornton is my bet to have a decent season if he has a chance to start...ZIPS seem him worth 1.7 WAR in 2021. I would say 2+
  19. I was reading on https://www.mlbtraderumors.com/ how Gardner and the Yankees have had no talks re: 2021. If we end up trading Grichuk or Hernandez as part of a package for starting pitcher, what if we signed Gardner to a 1-year? He bats left, is typically a Jays killer, forecasted for > 1.2 WAR, would want to make the Yankees pay, etc and he is still a stolen base threat. I would like him as the 4th OF more than Fisher, although Gardner is probably limited to LF and CF in a pinch. Just throwing it out there.
  20. Or Walker. If we sign even just one of those starters and Rosenthal we have had an amazing off season. We can always trade for someone impact during the season. But in the back of my mind I am thinking we should still plunder the Rockies while they are making dumb decisions. Gray and Marquez for Grichuk? #justkidding
  21. Stupid hypothetical... If the Jays started the season with SWR, Manoah, Groshans and Martin in the lineup, what is their WAR at the end of the season for 2021? My guesses: SWR 1.5, Manoah 0.8, Groshans 0.3, Martin 1.2
  22. Oh I totally agree. To walk away from ~ $46M? I sure as hell wouldn't. He is probably hoping for COVID-shortened seasons so that the embarrassment of him looking sad on the bench is quicker. I find the whole thing so fascinating. If I'm Davis I manufacture an injury. He's got to have some aches and pains he can focus on. And stay away from the PEDs. His playing days are virtually over. I hope he doesn't restart PEDs hoping to make a come back at 34.
  23. What do you think the Orioles do with Chris Davis? He has two years left. Do they keep running him out every few days hoping he will at some point provide positive WAR? Seeing him play now he looks like a guy that has totally given up. He doesn't even hit the Jays well, anymore. And that has been money his whole career. In other bad 1B signed to bad contracts, Pujols only has one more year left
  24. Holy crap, this site is amazing! Thanks for the discussion on this...I had no idea this site existed. For me it was only fangraphs. Are there any other sites out there fans show know about?
  25. Right? I think you may see all of these guys signed within 48 hours of Bauer being signed.
