    I will go on record and say the Blue Jays will NEVER sign a big free agent player from Japan.

    I was having a good discussion about the Blue Jays with some friends who are super fans over the weekend. It would suck, but it's almost like the way out of the malaise the team finds itself in is to trade the core, including Vladdy and Bo. It's not working, and is just going to get worse until they leave. We can stock the f*** out of the farm and get some high ceiling, controllable talent in return. Or, we can put lipstick on a pig, and go over the $190M payroll threshold with a club that will be worse than 2023. The latter is likely where we are headed, because the former would cost Atkins his job, and maybe Shapiro, too.

    If Tiedemann gets traded, an already bad 2023 becomes immeasurably worse.
  4. Ryu In My House
    It's muddled for sure. Now it will likely be a bunch of meh, unless they can pry some great talent under decent control for a team trying to free up payroll. 2023 has been a BAD year for the Jays.

    I agree. I cannot recall MLB Trade Rumors every being wrong, tbh, and I have followed that site for > 10 years.

    I wonder how many fans like us are passionately following this story? I check my Twitters source, Baseball Rumors, Sportsnet, etc. probably 100 times a day. This would be soooo big. I would lose my f***ing mind. But if he doesn't sign, kudos to the front office for almost making it happen. IMO, they have tried their absolute best and left nothing behind to give this a whirl.

    Jesus Christ.

    There are probably 7 guys in the org right now who would end up with higher fWAR than JD after the 2024 season.
  9. Ryu In My House
    In all seriousness, if the Jays sign Ohtani, could the team live with an internal option playing 3B? Assuming the money isn't endless? If the Jays played Orelvis all year at 3B, what do you think his fWAR would/could end up being? How about Palmegiani? Is it possible for a prospect like one of these guys to hit > 2 fWAR their first year? That would free up cash to be spent elsewhere.

    The only source I trust is Marty York.
  11. Ryu In My House
    What sort of statement or message from the front office would you like to see?
  12. Ryu In My House
    This made me laugh out loud.
  13. Ryu In My House
    That wasn't my takeaway. My takeaway was use them, but also give significant weight to common sense and baseball experience (management). His point about Berrios was a good one. Some players would demand a trade after that. Anyway, I like Sid, and I liked his rant. But I am not sure I agree with him 100% either. I don't have the answers to mitigate this f***ing disaster of a season going forward. The easy thing to do would be to clean house, but is that the answer? Is anyone waiting in the wings that's amazing and will turn this s*** around right now? I don't know.
  14. Ryu In My House
    True. I haven't written him off yet. I think he bounces back next year. I could do without the f***ing awful Manoah commercials on Sportsnet, though. I want to punch my TV, or claw my eyes out, when I see them.
  15. Ryu In My House
    I 100% thought the season was over after the Texas sweep. I wasn't even angry, just resigned to our destiny and was starting to think about 2024.
  16. Ryu In My House
    Anyone like the idea of signing Stroman and Teoscar for 2024?
  17. Ryu In My House
    Keirmaier I would keep. He fits in well, and we have no one on the farm, do we? Wasn't our last good OF prospect Travis Snider? Pompey?
  18. Ryu In My House
    That will fix things.
  19. Ryu In My House
    Vladdy's arbitration this time around is going to be a nightmare. I mean, all the Jays need to do is show a PowerPoint presentation of his 2023 numbers. I hope they settle on a Bichette-like $10M/year to cover the remainder of his arb time.
  20. Ryu In My House
    Such a great idea. Even reading those names makes me uneasy and slightly angry.
  21. Ryu In My House
    I would say a lot of us agree with you here. I liked a lot of his moves, really since day one. But especially this off season. Hopefully he can figure out where he went wrong and correct for 2024. I blow up isn't necessary, but some big changes might be required.
  22. Ryu In My House
    Such a great question. Early on, I was thinking uh oh, > $30M AAV with his next contract. But now...unsure. I really, really like him as a player on this team going forward, but we have some youngsters who could be pretty good, too. And way cheaper.
  23. Ryu In My House
    You know, that's a poor plan for 2024, mate.
  24. Ryu In My House
    Okay, chances are this season is over. What should the FO do for 2024? I think a long term deal with Vladdy makes sense. Do it when he sucks. He should bounce back. I would try to retain Chapman. $22M AAV, 5-years? I would try to re-sign Ryu.
  25. Ryu In My House
    What are you guys thinking for Vladdy, 10-year, $500M deal?
