  1. Is this legit? What kind of contract is he looking at getting? What's the precedent for KBO stars coming to MLB and having success? Is this guy the answer to the Jays hole in LF?
  2. Hahaha "Pukeworthy" What a drama queen. My god
  3. So it's the Jays high performance departments fault that the tubby crew can't stop pouring sugar and carbs and calories down their gullets? That's on the players, not the Jays.
  4. Damn. What team is going to give him that contract?
  5. Look at that, a reasoned and even keeled view point. But don't worry, an Atkins whining strawman builder will be along shortly to tell us all how we think Atkins is "perfect" and hasn't made any mistakes and that how the only reason we think the jays haven't won a playoff game under his tenure is because we think it's ALL been bad luck and nothing else. lol
  6. Again, no one here is arguing that it's ALL bad luck. Atkins whiners just keep building strawmen though.
  7. That's the point dude Atlanta won the WS when they snuck in with 88 wins. Then they lost 3-1 in the first round with 101 wns and 3-1 in the first round with 104 wins Playoffs are a crap shoot. All management can do is build a team that can get to the playoffs consistently, and then hope they catch lightning in a bottle at least one of those years.
  8. Absolutely agree. We want Ohtani pitching at a high level in 2025 and beyond if he's a Jay. No need to increase the risk by sticking him in the field, much less 1B when we have a multitude of guys to play that position.
  9. Fair. Especially with Anderson. Rosario doesn't project too much lower than Chapman though but for a lot less money and term
  10. lol I look forward to a time when I don't have to see off season pictures of the obese trio "getting in shape" anymore. Hopefully all traded in the next couple seasons so we don't have to watch them balloon up in their late 20's and early 30's because they can't control their eating habits and now have fat juicy contracts and financial security locked in.
  11. I wonder if the Jays could get guys like Rosario or Anderson to come to TO and play 3B on a 1 year deal to try and rebuild value? Just point at Semien and say "worked for Marcus" Although he played 2B for us, but still.
  12. It's still a pretty good roster. Top 5 pitching staff (on paper) is a great place to start. The holes at 3B and LF are amplified though without Ohtani's bat at DH
  13. Jays24 and the hyperbole In every single post, it's hilarious
  14. He had an 85 wRC+ bat last season Not nearly as abysmal as you like to exaggerate it He projects well too
  15. He has a career 96 wRC+ Basically a league average bat
  16. History shows that Varsho has been a league average bat. Why do you have to make things up all the time?
  17. I'd hate to trade Manoah right now after that s*** season. If he bounces back you'd get a f***ing massive return next off season. Of course, there is a risk that he'd tank his value completely. Hopefully the FO has a good idea if he can bounce back or not. Gausman Berrios Yamamoto Kikuchi Bassitt Hard for him to bounce back though, if he doesn't even have a rotation spot lol God I hope they get Yama
  18. The teams management isn't perfect, but 91, 92 and 89 win seasons, playoffs 3/4 seasons.....they certainly seem decently good with those results.
  19. Signing Yama and Ohtani would be nucking futs. Talk about an embarrassment of riches when it comes to pitching. Gausman Yama Berrios Bassitt Kikuchi Manoah Tiedemann Plus you have a legit ACE in Ohtani tucked away for the future
  20. Well it's a worst case really, and it's also just replacement level filler. The heavy lifting needs to be done mostly by others, all these guys need to do is not drag the team down. And you never know man, Schneider came up and had 2+ fWAR out of nowhere.
  21. Well, it would leave 3B, LF and 2B kind of question marks I guess?? But there would be Biggio, Espinal, Schneider, Barger, Orelvis, Lantigua, Lopez, Roden, Clement, Horwitz, Morris, Palmegiani, Jiminez to potentially fill out those spots. Some of that mud has to stick right?
  22. Supposedly the Jays have a "unicorn" budget from Rogers if they are able to land Ohtani. I really don't think they have much restrictions right now when it comes to going all in this off season. Let's hope they land some big fishies
  23. I don't know who's available, but if by some miracle the Jays sign Yama I would bet on Manoah + getting dealt for a solid bat from somewhere. It might happen whether they sign Yama or not.
  24. You can package Manoah up for a solid bat probably. They were just speculating that's what they were shopping for Soto, one of the best bats out there. The point is if you can add a potential ace like Yama, you do it and then find a way to use the excess pitching to upgrade the offense.
