LOL when did I ever say I was an ex player? I said ive played baseball throughout my childhood, thats all. I've only been banned once because of an instance exactly like this where you pick fights with people but the mods always chose you over everyone else. And you clearly started with the name calling first but then started crying when someone responds. Brock will see over time with your actions as it's always YOU who gets into it with EVERYONE so I don't need to expand on this further. Just give it another few days lol.

Ya I don't get being this annoyed... if you don't like it then don't open the damn thread. This news is being reported everywhere. It's the off-season where we're still expected to make a lot of moves.... like wtf are we supposed to talk about lol.
-
Let's not go into my life... Im not here to debate with who people see as the board drunk and the Mods feel sorry for so he's never been banned lol. You are the single reason why the previous board couldn't grow with a bigger user base because you'd throw insults at them until they left. The new management will soon realize what I'm talking about if they don't yet. If they want to, they can probably go through most of your past interactions and see how NUMEROUS users have stated this themselves. Mods in the past did a great job of deleting many of your interactions but let's see if they continue to clean your mess on here lol.

https://www.si.com/fannation/mlb/fastball/news/toronto-blue-jays-one-of-several-teams-interested-in-former-top-prospect-yoan-moncada Just another source feeding off the original tweet to please Spanky lol. We're all sick of these "rumours" and just want the Jays to finalize their roster already. I've been checking here almost daily in hopes of some exciting news this off-season, it's depressing lol.
-
Well, we know where Shapiro is headed after being fired from here lol.
-
Sounds like you're more annoyed with the Jays than me tbh but I'm good not posting it for discussion. Free agency is changing daily so what was reported a month ago might not be applicable today. I also don't see how you can't just skip the threads you don't care about whereas we're all forced to read a bunch of different crap within 1 massive thread to hear updated news on various players. I'm good with what the majority wants and can save myself the headache of posting these here then.
-
Do you not want stuff like this posted? We always used to post stuff like this but in just 1 big thread where there would be like 5 different convos going on simultaneously. Dude has 22K followers so it's not like it's a nobody reporting this. Seems logical that teams who don't get Bregman would fallback to guys like Monchada who has been discussed here a lot actually as a potential bounceback candidate.
-
Francys Romero reported that teams are circling free agent third baseman Yoan Moncada as everyone waits for Alex Bregman to make a decision. Moncada has had a career all too typical for recent White Sox prospects. He started off strongly, peaking with a 140 OPS+ in 2019, having another very good season in 2021, and then spiraling due to injuries afterward. He will enter his age-30 season in 2025.

I've said that this is an awesome strategy to employ. We literally have nothing to lose except building some goodwill with some agents and maybe get a player we weren't expecting to get under market value. I said the frustration comes when this is the same strategy being employed when this team has no choice but to build through free agency the past 2 off-season. The only options we had this off-season were to either overpay free agents or rebuild. Right now the Jays are choosing Option C that no one wants, which is to suck at both lol.
-
Of course we know we stink. You don't gotta tell me when I've been "crying" about the bad moves we've been making the past few years while you and your crew were loving everything these guys were doing lol. The topic here was why we've been "in on" so many guys. This isn't a 1 year problem. We have been reported to be in on free agents even when we were winning the past few years. We do our due diligence on majority of the free agents and make lowball offers on the ones they don't absolutely love and make actual offers for the ones they do. It's why our name seems to float around on so many guys.
-
Just using logic based on the reporting that's available. Would love to hear your analysis rather than your pointless 1 liners lol.
-
Ya I think Shatkins just like to stick to their price points and hope to find a bargain. It's like the guy who sends decent trade proposal in fantasy but never quite good enough to make the deal happen. In a normal world, this is a great method of targeting free agents to ensure you don't constantly overpay guys and screw your team long term. The only problem with the Jays is that they don't have a good enough farm system to utilize this strategy now since most believe they need to spend their way out of this mess or just full out rebuild. That frustration is just coming out in different way for folks lol.
-
While I agree with the pessimism, reaching "finalist" status does mean you have a legit offer on the table. Now whether any of the remaining free agents take that offer is another story. Jays seem hellbent on not trying to overpay anyone so are hoping some of the players fall into their price range, which could happen with folks at this stage of free agency.

Seems like a follow up on the original tweet. Not sure why a Cardinals account has more info than our own folks but here we are.

Ari Alexander of the Houston-based NBC affiliate KPRC2, has reported that three teams appear to be in on the former Astros third baseman: the Detroit Tigers, Boston Red Sox, and Toronto Blue Jays. The Tigers are looking to spend and compete after a surprise postseason run in 2024 while the Red Sox have toyed with the idea of moving Rafael Devers off third base where his glove can be problematic. The Jays could use both Bregman's steady glove and solid power at the hot corner. It's always concerning to see a power righty come out of Houston given that the Crawford boxes are easy exploits for pull hitters. It turns out, Bregman actually hit slightly more career home runs on the road than he did at Minute Maid. -

Give the guy a break, I'm pretty sure he's looking at the possibility of using free agency to potentially add to the team if the parameters of the players and team align lol. -
Ya I get Vlads performance has made this far from a black and white issue when looking at the long picture. At this stage, he has set the beginning of training camp as the deadline for any extension talks. Everything he has said since becoming a Jay is that he wants to be here forever. We just haven't seen anything reciprocal from the Jays management team but they should already know what their cutoff price is by now. I just don't understand why communication with your best player has to drag for so long. I thought the Jays brass would be arranging these meetings ASAP so they can also move accordingly for the rest of free agency. This lax approach is just weird for me... like what else are you doing with your time that is more important.
-
I think the Jays missed the boat on maximizing any potential return by not doing this right away in free agency before other teams could already plug those holes. Vlads been with the organization long enough that there needed to be a lot more back and forth communication on an extension before today. At this stage, it would be anyone's guess what we could get back but my assumption would be that the Mets would offer us the most in such a scenario.
-
Ya I wanted Teo all along but we desperately need to improve our offense from the corner OF spot and he's the best player out there for that. We still need 1 more power bat in the top 4 of the lineup but I doubt this team will be able to add it.
-
So maybe the Spanish reports were true that we've given him a formal offer that hes close to accepting. Hopefully it's at the 4/82 mark but feel like the Jays are gonna have to give the extra year to get anyone to sign here this offseason. Let's see.
-
We don't need another serious organization in our division. This is what teams probably said about us from 2022 - Present Day lol
