    I already said that because of age and the fact we already have Varsho under contract, he should be our starting CF in 2024. All things even, KK is the better overall defender. There is a reason why KK was CF every single inning he played with not a single soul wanting Varsho to play there while moving KK to LF. Unlike the year we had Semien at 2B who majority thought he'd be better at SS over Bo defensively. We had KK signed to a 1 year deal and still played him at CF everytime over a guy who is supposed to be our future. There was a reason for that but don't let logic get in your way lol.

    You see, you look at those numbers and think they provide the complete picture. While its a great summary, youre not factoring things like teams dont run on guys who are known to have strong/accurate arms. So i should give credit to Varsho because of him getting more oppprtunities? There are certain things I will rely on my eye test when I was able to see both for a full season. KK is the better overall fielder and actually has a proven track record at CF with no slow down at the moment. Just my 2 cents.
  3. Jays24
    For that reason, I think we'll end up with Chapman, Teo and a good DH. While I'd love Bellinger for his left handed bat and plus defense in the corner OF, 200M for a sporadic player is insane.
  4. Jays24
    Ya you say that but I think KK is still a better defender with a better arm at CF. Just a massive fan of KK tbh. But with the age factor, you obviously stick Varsho in CF and get a masher in LF unless Varsho brings you have a stud that helps you right now (doubt it).
  5. Jays24
    We won't bring KK back simply because he makes Varsho look useless. I'd rather have him patrolling CF even at age 35 or whatever he's at.

    Impatient Jays fan here. Please give me something so I can start dreaming of a 2024 championship and then cry the following offseason for it not happening...
  7. Jays24
    Shapiro is looking at more construction projects. This is solely on Atkins lol.
  8. Jays24
    Yup, you focus on that part while I focused on the other part. Explains how we talk on here lol And the entire baseball world was ok with our "game planning" of removing Berrios after the 3rd inning right... nothing to change there lol.
  9. Jays24
    False, don't even wait at 3rd... ignore the 3B coach and get gunned out at home instead

    Hey I'm not saying this is completely on the front office. The level of idiocy that we all see on the bases is mostly on the players. That reflects on their poor IQ/instricts and probably spills into other aspects of the game too like hitting approach. Just meant that everyone should be looking into readjusting their approach top to bottom since we haven't accomplished anything.
  11. Jays24
    Ya the money makes it hard to swallow getting Bellinger. I think Shatkins would be smart to not go 200 without any team opt outs. But man... getting that left handed bat right before vladdy would be ideal. Plus his defense in the corners would still probably give us the best OF defense in the majors.
  12. Jays24
    Whatever they were telling our hitters this past season should probably be reversed. To get that many career low years at the same time from so many hitters probably tells you it could be a strategy problem. Don't want to take the blame from the players themselves for sucking entirely but there could be a bigger possibility here.

    https://www.sportsnet.ca/mlb/article/bichette-says-reflection-needed-organization-wide-after-blue-jays-elimination/ Not saying Bo "blasted" the team but simply said it's time to rethink what's being done currently. I swear it feels like some of the people totally wiped it out from their minds how the majority of the fanbase felt after we got swept in the WC round yet again. It wasn't a pretty few weeks and a lot of people were calling for some heads to roll...
  14. Jays24
    Maybe a team/management that has accomplished absolutely nothing should be open to criticism/discussion? You realize that you only get better in life if your hear the hard things and not only surrounded by "yes men" right. Who would know better on what's happening internally than the players themselves. Bo also made a comment about things needing to be changed so guess it should be f*** him too right? Anything to avoid looking at our precious guys in charge lol.
  15. Jays24
    Bo has already started throwing shade and we'll see how that ends up lol.

    Teo is the perfect platoon/4th Ofer who DH's during the other times. Perfect world, we'd get him and Bellinger, especially if Chappy is out of our range. RF Springer SS Bo LF Bellinger 1B Vlad DH Teo CF Varsho C Kirk/Jansen 3B Martinez or cheap 1 year filler 2B Biggio/Schneider Against lefties, we sit Varsho while putting Teo in LF and Jansen/Kirk at DH.
  18. Jays24
    Ya Chappy may have turned down a contract offer before but I'm going to guess reality will sink in for him. He has not earned anything over 100M based on his recent play. Guys like Semien, Ray, Bellinger and many more had to reup for 1 year in order to earn the contract they thought they deserved. It's either that or Chappy has to revise his expectations on a long term deal.
  19. Jays24
    Polanco is horrible defensively at 3B isn't he? We cant go from Chapman to him defensively even if his bats better. Rather just overpay Chapman slightly to keep the "Ohtani whisperer" around in his contract year.
  20. Jays24
    Of course I liked it because that's how you talk to people too, including me. And you just called me a clown for no reason loll. Whatever, enjoy your day.
  21. Jays24
    Ya it's a habit that I get made fun of by a lot of people... can't help it. *trying very hard not to add an lol there too
  22. Jays24
    Ya but you can do that without having to be so confrontational all the time. The Jays haven't won a World Series and haven't really come close in like 30 years (except 2015). Being critical of them should be expected considering we're not even a small market and people want more. Expect some to be able to vent frustration on here. That is all.
  23. Jays24
    To show that particular post is not super serious and that I'm being lighthearted with my remarks
  24. Jays24
    If you read my post, I said I would be very happy for 2024 but make no mistake would not like to extend a lifelong fatass to a 10 year deal. That is all.
  25. Jays24
    https://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2023/12/cody-bellinger-reportedly-seeking-200mm-or-more-in-free-agency.html So time to shift our attention to Teo, Chapman and the best DH on the market? Rather spend there than get suckered into a 200M deal for a wildly inconsistent player that I'd love only on a cheaper deal. Springer Bo Vlad Solar Teo Kirk/Jansen Varsho Chapman Biggio/Schneider Back to being stupidly right handed heavy but I'd rather have a bunch of good right handed hitters than crappier lefties just to have balance.
