  1. "Front runners" again eh? More like "Blue Jays used for agent leverage" once again
  2. There is plenty of things wrong with the ajays front office, and they've made many mistakes, but not signing this "core" to massive extensions isn't one of them. The biggest whiff so far is failing to draft and develop enough talent.
  3. Mismanagement of Alec Manoah? Lol
  4. Yeah i get full page pop up ads on mobile still.
  5. Back to where he had some success. He's been ass the last couple seasons
  6. Any chance you can fix the "Go to first new post" feature on the site? It's doesn't always take me to the first new post, a lot of times it takes me to the first new post from a few days ago and then I'm scrolling trying to find where I last left off. It works well on other sites I use and it's glorious.
  7. Dodgers with the estimated $352 million LTP
  8. I agree, was just going off the apparent discussion on sirius that leaffie posted. Vientos, Sproat and Williams is enough for me, and that's gotta be in the ballpark at least.
  9. FYI the Mets top 3 prospects per fangraphs in 2024 were: SP Brandon Sproat FV 55 OF Drew Gilbert FV 50 SS Jett Williams FV 50 All three reached AAA last year. Add in MLBers like Vientos and maybe Baty and I do that all day long rather than throw $400+ million at Vlad.
  10. Ok, but that's as much on the core as it is on Shapiro and Atkins. I mean they won 89 games in 2023 despite core player Vlad posting 1.3 WAR. If he doesn't sped the whole season being a complete donkey at the plate maybe the don't have to play the wild card series, where they got eliminated with him getting picked off 2nd base as the trail runner.
  11. So you agree that this is the darkest days of the franchise since 1988? Three 90~ win seasons and three post season appearances? I dunno, I remember much darker days
  12. No kidding. Worst timeline in the Jays history? LMAO c'mon And they made the playoffs three out of five seasons with a pretty weak core to build around. Bo and Vlad are poor defensively, prone to mental errors and are very inconsistent with the offense, and can be very easy for pitchers to exploit their weaknesses. This FO is far from perfect, I realize that, but people whine about them like they just missed the post season 5 out of 5 years with prime Ohtani and Trout to build around.
  13. Maybe we can sign Naylor as an FA next off season after Vladdy walks! lol
  14. Yeah, I was surprised too when I looked. Now that I look further, he played 0 innings in the OF last year 1 inning in 2023, 37 in 2022. So he hasn't played any significant amount of OF since 2021. Pretty much 1B or bust for him. Hopefully, because the Jays were rumored to be in on Naylor, it means they are shopping Vladdy to see what offers they get.
  15. True, but I don't think anybody is going to trade for a 1B and make him a DH when he's never DH'ed before unless he's on board with it. Just sayin. And if I was Naylor, going into FA year with 2800+ innings as a 1B and 0 games as a DH, I would not be on board with it. He does have 1000 innings as an OF, but didn't play any OF last year
  16. I would have loved it, but if he wasn't interested in DHing most of the time, then unfortunately he wouldn't be a good fit. I'd imagine heading into his FA year he probably wants to play 1B as well as hit.
  17. Yeah it's not lagging at all right now. Awesome
  18. I see they've got a separate prospect forum now too, moved a bunch of threads over there too.
  19. f*** sakes
  20. I just assumed they tried to trade for Arenado prior to the Tucker trade. I don't know where else they'd plan to use Parades 2B and SS are covered, as is DH and he's hardly played any 1B in his career. And it's not like he's an incompetent at 3B
  21. They traded for Parades. He's been replaced
  22. Don't let silly things like your facts get in the way of his emotional bias'
