  1. They'll sign Stroman just for you.
  2. Ya thats crazy... reminds me of the Glavine/Maddux/Avery/Smoltz Braves if they played like 30 years in that regard lol.
  3. The Dodgers are what the Yankees used to be man. It's crazy the level of winning those f***ers have achieved for so long. I'm not even sure if they've had back to back below .500 years in like 30 years.
  4. Would people want Solar or J.D.?
  5. Ya it's a tough line of looking at a guy for what he's done in the past and thinking how much of it he can do in the future. Some guys age well while some don't and typically it's best just to stay away from it all like the Rays do but it's not easy to hit on practically every young guy like they do lol.
  6. I get the injury concerns and we'd have to talk to him about moving to a corner OF spot with some DH reps to uphold the body but the upside is just too stupidly good to not take the chance. You invested a ton into your high performance department so let's see what the big investment was for. Did people think Ohtani was going to look unbreakable during the same years while getting paid much more? Ohtani has already had major injury concerns in his career too but the whole world was begging for him. Also, realistically teams would eat some of that contract because they'd have to get a return for one of the best players of all time. You cant sell your franchise on this by getting nothing for him. It's a move I would 100% look into if it's possible.
  7. J.D. would be an amazing get at DH given what's available. Get Bellinger if the contracts reasonable or get Teo otherwise. Then bring back Chapman since there really isn't much of an alternative and we're good to go. Springer Bo Bellinger Vlad Martinez Kirk/Jansen Varsho Chapman Biggio/Schneider
  8. Lol @ wouldnt take Trout for free. Got f***ers talking about paying 200M for Bellinger but wouldn't want Trout for free lol.
  9. What did he mean by ethnic groups? I come on this message board to get away from all the racism and here this guy goes. Joking
  10. That's surprising to hear. Everything around this team was trending downwards last season. There was very little excitement to catch a Jays game. Would be hilarious if everything sold out during the couple of days of Ohtani fever lol.
  11. Man we thought he was fat before, wait until marriage sets in for him lol.
  12. Around the ballpark of 6/150M, sign me up. Anything close to 200M and we should run away. Would also suck losing a pick just to overpay the guy.
  13. Damn... made me check if I missed any Trout rumours lol
  14. How does an opt out work for all the deferrals? Does he still get paid? Loll
  15. Don't even have to do that since u already know. Also our best window to win was before the Bo and Vlad extensions. I promise you that if this takes any step back this upcoming season, Atkins will be gone and maybe even Shapiro depending on how it goes. But before we keep going there, let's see how the offseason unfolds. Hopefully some solid moves are made to improve this team's offseason dramatically. In the end we both want the same thing and that's for the Jays to just win and look like an actual playoff threat. Sadly the only year we looked like a real playoff threat was the year we didn't make it lol.
  16. I'd tweak the lineup but sign me the hell up for this. The other alternatives are giving bad contracts to free agents or standing pat so I don't see anything close to being better than this.
  17. Totally agree with you but let's be real, Shatkins are fighting for their jobs. If we take any step back while still having a poo poo farm system, this will be their last year here (especially Atkins). As a result of that desperation, I totally expect to see one or two contracts that fans will hate longterm.
  18. Crazy how we're going from an offseason where we could have gotten Ohtani/Yamamoto to us getting Bellinger is the most impactful move potentially lol.
  19. Report: Ohtani among Dodgers stars recruiting Yamamoto https://www.thescore.com/mlb/news/2792929 Ya... he's signing with the Dodgers lol
  20. Honestly it's still not lol. His track record is all over the place so his contract should reflect that. We paid 150M for Springer who had an actual proven track record even though he hasn't lived up to that. I can still rest knowing it was a smart move.
  21. I never said we need to overpay Bellinger so if he goes elsewhere for 200M+ then whatever. I'm not holding not getting Ohtani against Shatkins either. In the end, I will judge the offseason by who we get and on what contract. I was just listing the calibre of players we need. And sadly we might need to overpay financially because we don't have a good enough farm system to trade for every need. Let's see how things go...
  22. The only issue is that the obvious glaring holes on the team that don't get addressed in the offseason also don't get addressed at the trade deadline. Those same glaring issues have been the main reason we keep falling short whether it be the bullpen, defense, hitting, etc. No team will be perfect but you cant let your weakness be THAT bad.
  23. As I represent the general fanbase, I'll speak of their behalf to say that offseason would not be good. No one wants Martinez AND Brantley since either of them in the field is a disaster. Replace Brantley/Martinez with Bellinger (assuming a decent contract) and that'd be a good offseason.
  24. Teo should be brought in as a part time OFer/DH.
