    Anybody else feel like the Jays bullpen is teetering on the edge of becoming possibly elite? Looking at FG roster projections, the Jays are at a point where they have enough quality BP arms where guys like Pop, Pearson and Merryweather might not even start on the MLB roster. Now they add another hard throwing project like Julian Fernandez into the mix. Then you have high end prospects like Tiedemann and Zulueta, who I realize are starters, but could easily start their MLB careers in the bullpen before transitioning back to starters, especially with how strong the Jays rotation looks ATM. Not to mention reliever prospects like Adrian Hernandez, Hayden Jeunger and Hagen Danner who are all right there at the AA/AAA levels and looking good. Seems like they've come a long ways from the days where they had to give damn near 150 innings combined to waiver wire fodder like Thornton, Payamps, Saucedo and Castro.

    Imagine a world where Julian Fernandez figures his s*** out, Nate Pearson stays healthy and Julian Merryweather pre-sticky stuff ban resurfaces... Along with Romano that would be one hell of a flame throwing, bat missing, back end of a bullpen.
  3. Eat My Shatkins
    I'd say yes, although we'll see how Varsho transitions to LF.

    1. Mets 2. Padres 3. Yankees 4. Braves 5. Rays 6. Astros 7. Cards 8. Jays 9. Dodgers 10. Guardians

    Man it's exciting knowing the jays have three legit CFers patrolling the OF now.
  6. Eat My Shatkins
    Still wouldn't mind Cueto on a 1 year deal
  7. Eat My Shatkins
    Plus there is a chance Ryu comes back and makes an impact mid season, and Pearson/Merryweather are also wild cards although they are no longer counted on to make an impact it will just strictly be a bonus if they do.

    Eovaldi to the Rangers Too bad, still had slim hope he'd sign with the Jays 2/34

    You said "Bassitt was nice, otherwise id say worse for sure." That's a quote. You said nothing about hitting
  10. Eat My Shatkins
    Next years projections were included in my post Incoming guys projected for 4.7 WAR Outgoing guys projected for 4.1 WAR So worse how?
  11. Eat My Shatkins
    The Jays FO could very well believe Moreno will be a star and still decided to trade him because they also believe Varsho is (and will continue to be) a star and fills much more of a need for the Jays right now than Moreno, for obvious reasons.
  12. Eat My Shatkins
    The Jays replace two OFers who combined for 3.4 WAR (4.1 projected WAR) with two OFer who combined for 5.7 WAR (4.7 projected WAR) but you'd say without Bassitt they'd be worse for sure? How do you figure that? Should also note that the two OFers leaving were below average corner OFers and the two coming in are above average to elite CFers

    Kekai Rios He's had 10 PA's in AA in his career The Jays only have two catchers on the 40 man, Jansen and Kirk. Varsho is the defacto 3rd string catcher right now. Bec and Ellison are slated to start as the AAA catchers right now Lots of off season left though
  14. Eat My Shatkins
    Well s***, I just saw that the Giants signed Taylor Rogers. Maybe the Jays can get Chafin?
  15. Eat My Shatkins
    Kikuchi started 20 games for the Jays last season to the tune of negative 0.7 WAR and the Jays still won 92 games as a team. They can afford to trot him out again as a 5th starter if that's what they want to do IMO.
  16. Eat My Shatkins
    Luxury threshold be damned.... Sign Conforto or Profar Sign Cueto or Kluber Sign Rogers or Chafin You'd be adding about $25-30 million AAV or so? I'd like that team, a lot.
  17. Eat My Shatkins
    This is probably why the Jays were reportedly talking to Cueto. I would love to see Cueto or Kluber brought in on a year deal just to fill out the 5th spot and as a result improve the depth by knocking everyone else down a notch.
  18. Eat My Shatkins
    San Diego Overpaydres
  19. Eat My Shatkins
    Yeah there is lots of potential there for sure, none of it MLB battle tested though. Well, except for Ryu but he'd still be probably the biggest question mark out of all of them at this point.
  20. Eat My Shatkins
    If Berrios bounces back to 3-4 WAR and they somehow miraculously unlock Kikuchi we should have a pretty damn good rotation. Everybody needs to stay healthy too I guess, because the depth is still not very good, or at least not very proven. White/Zulueta/Tiedemann does have potential to be solid depth though.
  21. Eat My Shatkins
    Think so? His last three seasons he's only accumulated 0.7 WAR and last season was -0.2 WAR I figured he'd be signing cheap somewhere and then trying to bounce back and prove himself again.
  22. Eat My Shatkins
    Is Chapman cooked?
  23. Eat My Shatkins
    Definitely
  24. Eat My Shatkins
    If he puts up another 7 WAR season he'd be stupid not to IMO
  25. Eat My Shatkins
    True. Although both have nearly identical projections.
