  1. Kirk's a machine as long as there are no runners in scoring position lol
  2. Springer does what Kirk couldn't. Could have won some more games with this switch earlier.
  3. A sac bunt like play is all we can hope for right now lol
  4. Problem is the whole lineup is filled with number 7 to 9 hitters so that's why they're hoping Kirk can actually provide something. Agree that we might as well try others hoping for different results though.
  5. Alonso was on record stating that he didn't choose Toronto because they didn't have a clear long term direction even with us having a higher offer. I'm sure this would apply for many others so I wish we could have done this at the start of free agency to potentially add better players.
  6. This franchise has never had to suffer that long with a bad contract. You should think back to 2017 when we ate the backend of the Tulo/Martin deals... now times that by 7 lol. This contract will impact the working budget for those Jays teams and we will all still here crying about having 35M less to spend on more impactful players. Heck, half of this board wanted to DFA Vladdy a year ago when he was making 20M lol.
  7. I'm sure everyone is happy to see Vlad here for the next 7 years but it's those years 33 to 40 that will hurt this franchise. Vlad just hasn't been good enough for any franchise to want to eat the back half off that contract.
  8. Ya let's hope he doesn't shift the weight off his shoulders to his belly now that he has no financial incentives left for the remainder of his baseball career lol
  9. Ya its a great sign from an ownership perspective but we need management who can better identify how to build a complete team and develop a respectable farm system in parallel. Rogers has never invested more financially under anyone other than Shapiro with the results trending in the wrong direction It's to Shapiro's credit to get ownership to open their wallets but it's also on ownership when they need to cut ties with management for results just not good enough.
  10. Jays have a top 5 payroll right now and it's debatable whether we'll be competitive in the long run. If our offense remains like the 2023/2024 version then ownership is just flushing money down the toilet.
  11. This contract is deserving of a player who has consistently performed at his 2021/2024 levels. Jays are pissing away 250/7 at the backend assuming he actually plays up to 250/7 in the front-end. For the record, I would have overpaid Alonso on a 5 year deal and traded Vlad for some win now players than agreeing to this deal.
  12. Don't worry, we will win games with the score Toronto 0 Other Team -2 Our amazing Defensive WAR will take away runs from the other team lol.
  13. 2 outs, no one on... calling a Kirk single lol
  14. Screw the torpedo bat, we need to pullout the WonderBat lol
  15. Personally would have kept Moreno who seemed like an athetlic freak for a catcher instead of the guy who's a complete opposite longterm lol.
  16. Jays have a "high performance department" that they spent millions on... it's crazy that of all players they could have extended during their time here, they chose Kirk lol.
  17. Kirk continues to be a useless scrub every time the team needs a big hit but don't worry, he'll get you singles when the bases are empty with 2 outs. Exactly what you want from your number 5 hitter...
  18. Can Schneider start wearing high heels so he can hit those damn high fastballs... his MLB career is dependent upon it.
  19. If anyone is looking for offense, Ovi just broke the Goals record.
  20. No Roden after beasting yesterday... oh of course because it's against a lefty and our righties are all prime Mike Trouts. Also can't wait for the high leverage Mason Fluarty appearance over Garcia/Hoffman/Green. Took me just over a week to become this unhinged lol.
  21. How do you have a top 5 payroll on baseball with a s*** lineup and no real high leverage lefty in the bullpen? Wtf are we going to do when the eventual injuries hit like they do every team...
  22. Please fire everyone and start all over. It's killing my entertainment experience
