    They've won 100+ games in 6/7 years and haven't won less than 91 games in the last 11 seasons, 11 straight playoff years too. Only 1 WS though.
  2. Eat My Shatkins
    Honestly, the biggest bat the Jays can add is to have Vladdy resurrect his career and put up another 6 fWAR season.
  3. Eat My Shatkins
    No kidding. They "take a step back" and still win 100 games, then the next off season add a 3rd MVP to their line up and a pitcher good enough to be an ace (when healthy). Probably not done either. I bet Yamamoto signs with them too.
  4. Eat My Shatkins
    What would you rather the Jays do: 1. Aroldis Chapman for 1 x $10m 2. Jordan Hicks for 3 x $40m 3. Josh Hader for 4 x $80m 4. None of the above I like our bullpen and it's depth, there are much bigger holes to fill right now. But damn I love the thought of a potential super bullpen like Hader, Romano, Green, Mayza, Swanson locking s*** down in late innings.
  5. Eat My Shatkins
    I wonder if they'll get Yamamoto too?
  6. Eat My Shatkins
    Looks like it's done
  7. Eat My Shatkins
    Yeah I went and looked at that today. They'd literally have to give him away and eat a huge chunk of that contract, which they'll never do, so yeah....an Angel for life.
  8. Eat My Shatkins
    The contracts are no doubt risky, but signing Bellinger, Chapman and JD Martinez is probably the absolute best the Jays could do as far as FA's go. Probably the most formidable line up they could put together at the moment without doing it via trades. LF - Springer SS - Bichette 1B - Guerrero RF - Bellinger DH - Martinez 3B - Chapman C - Kirk / Jansen 2B - Biggio/ Schneider / Espinal CF - Varsho One more for the bench out of Lukes, Clement, Horwitz, etc Probably not much money left after that to sign anything more than maybe some depth pitching, but the staff is pretty solid on paper as is.

    This is why I like the idea of taking Yelich from them while grabbing a few other things. They are cheap and Adames and Burnes are both a year away from FA. Manoah for Yelich, Burnes, Adames. Toss in a couple low value, near MLB ready pieces from our 40 man like Jiminez, Zulu maybe... Just need a capable DH after that.
  10. Eat My Shatkins
    Pretty sure it's the salary that counts against the luxury tax payroll, not the AAV
  11. Eat My Shatkins
    OK, now I want Bellinger on the Jays again.
  12. Eat My Shatkins
    Man, Mike Trout cannot be worth much in a trade. He's gotta be worth way more to the Angels than they'd ever get in a return unless they ate a f***ton of that contract. Hard to believe he's already 32 years old. $35.5 million AAV and he's averaged 3.7 fWAR the last three seasons...well basically three "half seasons" because he is always injured now.
  13. Eat My Shatkins
    You realize the 40 man roster includes the MLB roster right? The MLB roster that won 89 games last season? Not many "minor league teams" win 89 games in the major leagues you f***ing nitwit. f***ing amazing that people without even two brain cells to rub together can muster the ability to log on here.
  14. Eat My Shatkins
    Yelich, Burnes, Adames (4.1 trade value) for Manoah (11.8 trade value)
  15. Eat My Shatkins
    Then move Bo, or put Adames at 3B?
  16. Eat My Shatkins
    He has negative value. Even if they ate some of his contract you could probably get him for a couple low level lottery tickets or 40 FV schlubs from the 40 man, is my guess. But the Jays could use a 4 WAR LFer though, so I wouldn't be opposed to getting him.
  17. Eat My Shatkins
    I love the make believe narrative you like to spout about how the GM of a team that's averaged 90 wins per season the last 3 years and made the playoffs 3/4 years in the toughest division in MLB is somehow "fighting for his job" lol Here comes the "0 playoff wins" retort, I'm ready.
  18. Eat My Shatkins
    Springer had a steadier track record than Bellinger up to free agency, but counter point Bellinger is 3 years younger than George was and also has an MVP under his belt. 24.5 fWAR for Springer up to free agency, in 7 season. 21.6 fWAR for Bellinger up to free agency, in 7 seasons.
  19. Eat My Shatkins
    What if Bellinger sucks? Would it still be a good off season? I'm sure you'd be one of the first to be looking to hang Atkins for signing him to a $200 million contract if he ends up as a 2-3 WAR player going forward.
  20. Eat My Shatkins
    WTF? They've been in on every big name out there so far. You can lead a horse to water, you can't make the f***er drink.
  21. Eat My Shatkins
    Yeah, the general fan base would flip out for sure lol
  22. Eat My Shatkins
    Gimme: Brantley 1 x 10 Martinez 1 x 12 Urshela 1 x 8 Montas 1 x 8 Hicks 3 x 9
  23. Eat My Shatkins
    Looking at Profar on fangraphs, he's really got this good year/bad year thing going on, and last year was a bad year. Might be a decent training camp invite on MiLB deal? -2.0 fWAR last year, probably not getting an MLB deal?
  24. Eat My Shatkins
    Haha, I'm the same. I keep telling myself what he was last year is what we need, and what he'll be going forward. I also tell myself that his down years were more a reflection of his shoulder injury and COVID than him being a phony. Jays seem to be after him, hopefully they know what the EFF they're doing.
  25. Eat My Shatkins
    Zips has the Jays projected for what..86 wins right now? Probably still going to add a LF, 3B and DH. Chapman, Bellinger and Martinez would add about 7 wins to the projections
