    I would say his job is to manage expectations. If they strike out, the blowback would be massive and actually very counterproductive to them in the short term. For the time being, they have the attention of all jays fans everywhere so let's see where that takes us.
  2. Jays24
    We're at the point where we are getting at least Lindor or Springer. Would be wishful thinking to get both and would be heartbreaking if we lose out on both. A move has to be coming any day now
  3. Jays24
    Oh its worth everything hearing that lol. Really don't think we need a catcher and definitely need a CFer but its hard to be upset if we went that route. I am assuming our package to the Indians will be dependant upon who we get from free agency.
  4. Jays24
    With rumours of Lindor... lets say in free agency we get Springer but then trade Gurriel or sign Realmuto and then trade Kirk. Would you rather have Springer/Kirk or Realmuto/Gurriel to go alongside Lindor? Yes, I realize we'd probably have to give up more if Kirk is the main player going out for Lindor.

    Story of my life lol

    In a normal year, id be with you but with all the stars aligning and our management just adding more fuel to the fired, expectations are sky high lol.
  7. Jays24
    2 of the top players at their respective positions playing the most important spots on the field in their primes. All while batting in the top 3rd of the order and moving other players to positions they can be even more productive in. I guueeessss id be okay with that lol.
  8. Jays24
    My wish list is signing Springer, trading for Lindor or even Bryant and then signing a guy like Paxton. Just want 2 impact positional players (preferably at CF or SS/3B). If we end up with Bradley and Kim as our big moves, I'll consider a huge disappointment.
  9. Jays24
    For us or in general? Springer on a 5 year deal would be great. He can always move to LF/RF for the last year or two of that contract. Cant see that going south much.
  10. Jays24
    Man, it will get depressing if we lose out on all the major free agents. We gotta get at least 1 of them.
  11. Jays24
    I've mentioned it before that whatever players the Rays want in return for Snell, I am keeping those players on our team forever. I dont trust us winning a trade with them lol.
  12. Jays24
    The moves we've all been waiting for lol
  13. Jays24
    The main reason why Lindor makes sense is if we can get Springer. Grichuk has no trade value so we'd have Teo or Gurriel available to fill a need on the infield. A single domino can lead to a flurry of other moves which would all be about best allocating our assets. We can always use those assets for a pitcher and sign an infielder instead as well. But lindor checks a lot of boxes for us short and long term. Gotta trust our management to make the best decisions since they got us into this great spot currently.
  14. Jays24
    Lets get Jose Ramirez from them too and turn it into the 2020 version of the Marlins trade... but hopefully with better results lol.
  15. Jays24
    How can you say we don't need one of the best young players in baseball? If you get a realistic chance at one of these players then you try to make it happen. Defense is a huge issue for us and Lindor not only adds elite defense at one of the most important positions on the field, he moves bichette to a position that he has an easier chance to become elite at (2B or 3B). Oh and being a great top of the order bat and great baserunning is a nice to have too.
  16. Jays24
    Ya but the problem is the most players in his position sign contracts that take them to their late 30s. He has all the leverage to ask for it like the Betts/Harpers of the world. If we don't give him what he wants then he just waits for the following offseason when more teams should be recovered from Covid.
  17. Jays24
    We already spent 8 million of that on Ray. If we signed Springer or got another big named player, we'd be left bargain bin shopping for the remainder of our of needs. Hoping we are closer to the 70M dollar range.
  18. Jays24
    If the Jays get Springer, Lindor, a #2/3 calibre starting pitcher and 2 good bullpen additions... what do you think our expectations would be?
  19. Jays24
    Why the hell would he take that contract when hes better to just test free agency next year? Lindor is getting at least 300M extension for like 10 years. The last few years might suck like most of these contracts do but thats the cost of doing business with an elite talent.
  20. Jays24
    Or its gonna hurt those players if they're eventually traded within the next year or or so to upgrade their spots lol.
  21. Jays24
    This just makes too much sense with all the reports for it not to happen at this stage. Sign Springer to make Gurriel more expendable and trade for Lindor. We would have a dream lineup if this went down.
  22. Jays24
    Moving Gurriel who was just nominated for a gold glove (as questionable as that may be) doesnt make sense. His value as a corner outfielder is much higher than a 1B. Also his arm is a cannon and it would be a waste at 1B. I forget how he looked at 2B but maybe 3B could be possible?
  23. Jays24
    I think free agency will let us know exactly where Martin and Groshans stand with the team for the upcoming season. If we sign a big named OF and big named IF then i don't expect us to begin the clock on them. Lets hope free agency goes well so they can take their time and be part of the team beginning in 2022 to fill in the potential remaining gaps.
  24. Jays24
    So damn curious how this team will look in a months time. One or two major free agent signings will tell us everything.
  25. Jays24
    Can free agency pick up already. Just skimmed through 2 pages of zoinks talk... fuk lol
