    "Jays should have traded for somebody instead..." Oh, yeah? Well, who the f*** is available and what is that team asking for in return? Always love the know it alls who don't actually know anything.
  2. Eat My Shatkins
    And f*** the Padres and Mets too.
  3. Eat My Shatkins
    lol f*** I read "Bryan Reynolds to the BlueJays..." And my heart skipped a few beats. Then disappointment.

    The bullpen seems to be improving incrementally every season. You're no longer counting on waiver wire pick ups to come in and fill it out, or on Merryweather to be a key high leverage guy. 1. Romano 2. Garcia 3. Swanson 4. Bass 5. Cimber 6. Mayza 7. Pearson 8. Richards 9. Pop 10. Merryweather 11. Gage 12. Thornton Probably going to have one of White or Kikuchi in there too once the Jays bring in another starter. It's not some daunting, frightening bullpen but Trent Thornton pushed that far down is a good thing IMO. Plus I wouldn't be surprised if the Jays FO is trying to bring in another solid BP piece if you believe the rumors they made an offer to Kenley Jansen. If they bring in a guy like Rogers or Kimbrel, and Pearson/Merryweather finally figure it out, that's suddenly a pretty strong BP on paper.

    Watch the Yankees reel in Rodon too lol Can't let the Mets out spend them
  6. Eat My Shatkins
    Yeah sure, but the roster (core) the FO put together was good enough for 90+ wins If they lose in the playoffs that's on the players more than the front office IMO
  7. Eat My Shatkins
    Probably the most volatile and unpredictable part of a major league roster. Like I said, tough crowd.
  8. Eat My Shatkins
    Jays FO isn't perfect but I don't understand what some peoples f***en problem is. They pretty quickly built this team back up into a perennial 90+ win team and they did it the toughest division in baseball. Went from 2016 being in the playoffs, to giving it one more go in 2017 and failing. Tearing it down and by 2020 they were back in the wild card game and now have won 91 and 92 games the last two seasons. Tough crowd if you're unhappy with those results.

    Well that sucks f***ing ass
  10. Eat My Shatkins
    Of course they wouldn't trade him for a couple bench players. Good thing that's not what Jansen and Espinal are. WAR last year Jansen 2.6 Espinal 2.3 Lopez 2.8 Projected Jansen 2.8 Espinal 2.4 Lopez 2.8

    Other than Rodon, Correa and Swanson there are no more FA's that are worth signing to long term big money deals, so I think the Jays should aim for some pillow contracts. Sign Gallo 1 x $10m Sign Conforto 1 x $12m Sign JBJ 1 x $3m Sign Rogers 2 x $15m ($7.5m AAV) Trade Jansen, Espinal (36.7 TV) to Miami for Lopez (38.7 TV) C Kirk 1B Vlad 2B Merrifield 3B Chapman SS Bo LF Gurriel / Gallo CF Springer RF Conforto DH Rotating Gallo/Gurriel/Springer/Vladdy/Kirk C Moreno OF JBJ UT Biggio BE Spot open for Lopez / Lukes / Barger / Horwitz / T. Morris / some other FA SP Manoah SP Gausman SP Lopez SP Berrios SP Kikuchi CL Romano SU Rogers SU Swanson RP Garcia RP Bass RP Cimber RP Pearson RP White Depth relievers - Mayza, Pop, Richards, Merryweather
  12. Eat My Shatkins
    Still some interesting relievers out there too. Taylor Rogers Craig Kimbrel Trevor Williams Trevor Rosenthal Andrew Chafin Michael Fulmer Seth Lugo Matt Moore Although I doubt any closers will want to come to TO with Romano here, unless they're OK setting up in high leverage.
  13. Eat My Shatkins
    Rodon Bassit Eovaldi Manaea Kluber Stripling Wacha Syndergaard Smyly My hope is Senga though Sign one of these guys and I'm ok with the rotation I think. Then trade for an OFer, preferably a capable CFer
  14. Eat My Shatkins
    Estimated $335 million luxury tax payroll for the Mets lol

    Correa > Bo (IMO) If Bo won't sign a long term, somewhat team friendly deal I would absolutely love to see them sign Correa and then trade Bo for a really good young starting pitcher and/or outfielder (preferably CF). Sign Correa Trade Bo (94.1 value) to AZ for Carroll (77.8 value) and Jameson (12.5 value)
  17. Eat My Shatkins
    If Kikuchi somehow miraculously finds his command then the Jays are in great shape with the rotation. I'll need to see it to believe it myself. His stuff is incredible but he's a mental midget when it comes to commanding it. I could see him going on a tear for a couple months and then suddenly go back to walking way too many batters again overnight.
  18. Eat My Shatkins
    Warmoth was taken in the minor league rule 5 and the Jays took a AA catcher from the Dodgers
  19. Eat My Shatkins
    I thought maaaaybe Adrian Hernandez would get taken because he's young and at AAA, but he's not a fireballer and struggled after an injury last season.
  20. Eat My Shatkins
    I'm still trying to figure out who the #4 starter is, if Kikuchi and White are supposedly their number 5 options.
  21. Eat My Shatkins
    Who is the Jays #4 option then?
  22. Eat My Shatkins
    Haha, well hopefully the Jays land somebody they are after.
  23. Eat My Shatkins
    $20 million for projected 1.8 WAR? lol f*** off
  24. Eat My Shatkins
    The Jays could use him either way.
  25. Eat My Shatkins
    Projections seem to like Heaney. Fangraphs says 2 years $10 million per. K rate sure jumped last year too.
