    Kikuchi looked like an ace for a month or two last season as well. Then he fell apart. Hopefully he stays locked in this time.

    Haha. I'm completely relaxed TYVM Just hoping Berrios bounces back. The rotation could be magnificent, a lot of fun to watch and not a drag on the BP.
  3. Eat My Shatkins
    Sure hope they didn't sign a dud with Berrios. Really need a bounce back season from him. That's a lot of money for just barely above replacement level starting pitching.

    I know it's just spring training but FU Rays!

    Looking forward to Varsho staring slow as a Jay and listening to the whining about it from simpleton's, and then having that same group of morons point out every time Gurriel/Moreno do anything good in AZ lol
  6. Eat My Shatkins
    Both the Fernandez's throw heat. If either one of them turn into something it'll be found money.
  7. Eat My Shatkins
    Hopefully Barriera has a Tiedemann-esque season in 2023 and just tears through the minors with high 90's left handed heat and plus secondaries.

    The pitch clock is going to mess with some pitchers for sure, but I think it will help others. Kikuchi might be one of the pitchers it helps. Less time for him to think in between pitches and just get to the mound and go. Probably a good thing for a guy with incredible stuff but a problem with a mental block
  9. Eat My Shatkins
    Maybe my reading comprehension is lacking but how in the f*** is Senga ranked so high? 35th? He hasn't even pitched an inning of MLB yet.
  10. Eat My Shatkins
    Yes I'm pretty happy with it. I was hoping they'd nab Cueto (1.1 fWAR projection) but Kikuchi is projected for 0.7 fWAR and has great stuff, I don't see a problem with him as the #5. White is projected for 0.5 fWAR himself. I'm no expert on other teams rotations around the league, but I doubt too many have their 6th SP projecting that well. As for the depth after that, Thompson, Hutchison are certainly solid depth guys and then you high upside lottery tickets like Juenger, Zulueta and Tiedemann all with MLB caliber stuff. Guys like Lawrence and Hatch (who had to pitch for the Jays last season a bit) have been pushed all the way down to at least 9th or 10th on the depth chart it looks like. Not to mention Ryu is hanging around as a wild card mid season acquisition. Not sure how better we reasonably expect it to be. Nobody has 7 or 8 proven MLB caliber starting pitchers at their disposal, that I know of.

    Hmmm. Interesting take. I actually love the Jays SP depth this season.
  13. Eat My Shatkins
    f*** it would have been nice if Bogaerts had taken the Jays offer. Nice to have options after signing a premier player playing a premier position for no acquisition cost besides money. Could move Bo to 2B, could trade him for a nice haul. f***ing Padres and Mets are an abomination. Hopefully neither one of them win a world series with their ridiculously bloated payrolls.
  14. Eat My Shatkins
    Not to mention Belt will be hitting in a much friendlier hitters park
  15. Eat My Shatkins
    I read somewhere that despite the Jays lacking left hand relievers, they have some right handers with strong numbers against left handed batters. Someone here probably knows.
  16. Eat My Shatkins
    I'm reliever greedy. I'd still like to see Britton and/or Reyes brought in somehow. I don't know if either of those guys will get an MLB deal having missed last season, but boy would it be great to get them on MiLB deals with invite to spring training.
  17. Eat My Shatkins
    Love this. How nice will it be around August when we're all probably clamoring for some bullpen help at the trade deadline, to have Chad f***ing Green waiting in the wings about to return?
  18. Eat My Shatkins
    I really like this signing.
  19. Eat My Shatkins
    Manoah had 17 innings pitched at low A, then because of COVID didn't pitch in any games in 2020. Despite that the Jays still placed him in AAA to start 2021 and after only 18 innings he went straight to the bigs. The Jays weren't f***ing around with Tiedemann either last season. Promoted him through three levels at 19 years old, and he dominated at every one of them. If he dominates again to start this season I could easily see the Jays bringing him up by June or so. One big difference though between now and 2021 when they brought Manoah up right away, is the rotation is currently waaaay better on paper than it was back then. But if they have a starter struggling and Tiedemann is dominating, I have no doubt they'll bring him up.
  20. Eat My Shatkins
    By the end of this season hopefully Dasan Brown and Gabriel Martinez are in AAA or at least lighting up AA. Means they'll be close and possibly be ready to contribute to the Jays in 2024.
  21. Eat My Shatkins
    The Jays (somewhat) depleted prospect pool is not a surprise. Look at how many prospects they've graduated and traded over the last 5 seasons. And the funny thing is, the ones they've graduated have turned into decent to great MLB contributors, while I've yet to see any of the ones they traded provide anything of value at the MLB level yet. Of course, the jury is still out on a few of them, Moreno especially, but I'd say the Jays FO has done a great job of keeping the keepers and trading the rest for actual MLB talent.
  22. Eat My Shatkins
    Rosenthal claiming the Jays have interest in Britton. If he's healthy and has that sinker working he would be a great fit. Especially being a lefty and also with the new outfield dimensions at Rogers. With guys like Britton, Reyes and Rosenthal still kicking around out there as free agents, definitely some low risk high reward potential.
  23. Eat My Shatkins
    So we're about to be bombarded with a ton of stupid threads and a lot of broken English?
  24. Eat My Shatkins
    Haha I think you forgot one very important word. Luckily you didn't forget the 'w' otherwise one might think you been mastering your kegels
