    According to MLB Ray threw 26 pitches, 24 of them for strikes...is that right? That's a good sign if true.
  2. Eat My Shatkins
    That's a whole lot of pitchers that i want to see tomorrow. The game isn't on TV though is it? Like, every single f***ing guy I want to watch every pitch they throw, except for maybe Liriano.
  3. Eat My Shatkins
    lol Got me. I was supremely annoyed that the Red Sox had acquired Kris Bryant. Then extremely relieved that they hadn't.
  4. Eat My Shatkins
    Exactly. Now, if the Rockies want to include Story with Marquez, that's the basis for a massive blockbuster. Jays would need to be pretty certain they could get Story extended though, and that one of him or Bo would be fine moving to 3rd.
  5. Eat My Shatkins
    That'd be 3 of our top 10 prospects? Way too much.
  6. Eat My Shatkins
    Odorizzi is an if too. He's not guaranteed to be a better option than Ray or Pearson. He's just a way more expensive 'if that wants multiple years of commitment.
  7. Eat My Shatkins
    Hopefully the Jays are in contention and swing a deal for a guy like Luis Castillo or German Marquez mid season.
  8. Eat My Shatkins
    Probably end up putting Liriano or Mayza on the 40 man. They need another lefty reliever on the 40 man, unless they aren't going to stretch Kay out? Speaking of lefty relievers, is Kirby Snead any good?
  9. Eat My Shatkins
    He's the youngest in the group and in my opinion brings the best offense/defense combo. He'd also bring his championship experience with him too. Don't get me wrong though, I'd be pretty excited if any of them signed with the Jays.
  10. Eat My Shatkins
    Yeah, Bo better be a damn good short stop long term to miss out on an opportunity to nab one of those guys. I would have never even considered Correa but then the Jays miraculously lured Springer in. He'd be my first pick, move Bo to second and then have Martin and Groshans battle it out for 3rd. Not sure if Bo would be happy moving to 2nd. He should be though, in order to add a player like that and increase the teams chances at winning it all.
  11. Eat My Shatkins
    How good of buddies are Springer and Correa? Just wondering.
  12. Eat My Shatkins
    wtf?
  13. Eat My Shatkins
    I really wonder how many of our top prospects make their MLB debuts this season. So to hard gauge them with the missed MILB season, but these guys haven't exactly been sitting around twiddling their thumbs either. Getting lots of work in at the Dunedin facilities against stiff competition and training their asses off too by the sounds of it. Specifically guys like Martin, Groshans, SWR and Manoah. It'll be interesting if guys like that make a push. There isn't too many turds left on the 40 man that you can't wait to see get punted.
  14. Eat My Shatkins
    Who has a better season, Matz or Walker?
  15. Eat My Shatkins
    Anybody have any insight on Zululeta? Apparently the guy packs some heat (95-99 mph) and some decent secondaries too. Where does he project to start the season? Fangraphs says AA.
  16. Eat My Shatkins
    Too bad about Rosenthal but I guess it was a pipe dream to hope the Jays would throw that kind of money at another right handed reliever when they already have Yates, Dolis, Romano, Phelps and a bunch of other potential right handed options as well.
  17. Eat My Shatkins
    I think people are too concerned with the pitching. I know they're just projections, but fangraphs has the Jays ranked pretty favorably in projected pitching WAR. The starters are ranked 4th in the AL behind the Yankees, White Sox and Twins if I remember correctly. Of course that's based on Ray bouncing back to his career norms and Pearson breaking out a little. Other than Bauer there wasn't a lot out there in free agency this year that really moved the needle much from what the Jays already have.
  18. Eat My Shatkins
    Hopefully by the time the deadline has passed this season, one of Marquez or Castillo are Jays. Or f*** it anyways, both. lol
  19. Eat My Shatkins
    Merry Spring Training Eve everyone
  20. Eat My Shatkins
    Brewers going to trade for Drury from the Mets next? Lol
  21. Eat My Shatkins
    If they can find another legit high end starter (at the right price) then I'm all for it. Going to have to be via trade now though in my opinion, because any of the free agents that are left will just get tossed onto the pile of hopefuls the Jays already have.
  22. Eat My Shatkins
    Most here know this I'm sure, but a reminder: Robbie Ray from 2017-2019 33-15 W/L 3.72 ERA 618 K's in 460 IP 12.1 K/9 4.4 BB/9 1.4 HR/9 Then whatever the f*** he tried to do to his delivery in 2020. Hopefully they get him back to what he was before, then we can flush 2020 down the toilet and voila the Jays have a legit #2. Guy is only 28, I'm sure they can get him back to form. I know it's hard to picture though, because he was so s***** last year. But supposedly there is a legit, identifiable and fixable reason for the shittyness. Fingers crossed. Also, Pearson has the stuff to be an ace. We all know that. The Jays top 3 SP's have a chance to be amazing. If that happens all they need is a couple more guys to just be average (Matz, Roark, Stripling, etc)
  23. Eat My Shatkins
    Yeah you're right, he was pretty good.
  24. Eat My Shatkins
    Haha. The last time the Jays traded for Price they had a juggernaut offense and should have won the world series. They would have too if it wasn't for the lucky ass royals and some godamn disgusting umpiring at crucial moments in the ALCS. And to go along with that juggernaut offense, the Jays had the used up carcasses of RA Dickey and Mark Buehrle along with Hutchison and Estrada pitching the bulk of the innings until they traded for Price and Stroman came back from injury. Unless a couple of aces fall from the sky and land in Atkins lap that's kind of what this team is going to have to do too. Hope 1 guy steps up, hope 1 guy rebounds and then try to trade for a top of the rotation starter if they're in contention.
  25. Eat My Shatkins
    Yes it certainly would be outmatched, but IMO signing Walker or Odirizzi isn't going to change that.
