  1. I wonder if Conforto would have no interest in signing with the Jays seeing as they already have 3 OFers with KK, Springer and Gurriel? He probably wants a full time spot all gift wrapped and guaranteed.
  2. Kikuchi with the 16.8 K/9 and 2.28 xFIP out of the pen last year could potentially be a weapon, especially if he can cut down on the walks just a hair. It'd be a smart move to bring in a steady #5 like Cueto and then let Kooch work 1-2 innings at a time in middle relief and fine tune things. By mid season he might be a legit high leverage lefty if he can build up his confidence. I still would like to see Taylor Rogers brought in too. Could end up with a pretty killer back end of the pen with Romano/Pearson/Rogers/Kikuchi if everything clicked.
  3. I would love this. Manoah Gausman Berrios Bassitt Cueto Kikuchi White Zulueta Tiedemann Pretty solid starting pitching and tons of depth.
  4. Thanks peeps. It'll be interesting to see how much more they spend. That $233,600,000 number also includes Ryu, and IIRC they have that insured so while they are still over the threshold, they at least have some $$ coming from insurance.
  5. Jays luxury payroll estimate is now $233,607,143 according to FG with the Keirmaier contract. What's the threshold for luxury tax again?
  6. Vlad could replace all of Teo's offense all by himself if he bounces back. And then some.
  7. Nobody seems to be digging Gallo as a possibility for the 3rd/4th OFer?
  8. So it wasn't reported that the Dodgers tried to sign Bellinger after they non-tendered him?
  9. Correct me if I'm wrong but was it not reported that both the Dodgers and Jays tried to sign Bellinger before he ultimately went elsewhere? Then both pivoted to KK?
  10. Sweet Now sign Conforto and Rogers/Chafin FIN
  11. lol I wish you would step back from that ledge, my friend
  12. That baseball trade value site has Jansen/Happ median value set at: Jansen 24.9 Happ 14.9 FWIW
  13. I didn't see anyone do it but the poster I quoted said that people were changing their tunes about Senga
  14. I said I wanted Senga on the Jays, and now that he signed somewhere else I also said f*** him, but I did not change my tune and say I never wanted him anyways.
  15. No point in trading Jansen "for the best starter you can get" Might as well just try to sign one of the free agent starters still available, like Thor, Kluber, Wacha, Stripling or even Manaea as any of those guys are probably better than any starter you get straight up for Jansen IMO
  16. I hope Senga crashes and burns
  17. Is Gallo poised for a bounce back season with the elimination of the shift? Left handed power bat, platoon with Gurriel in LF and do some DHing?
  18. "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.
  19. And f*** the Padres and Mets too.
  20. lol f*** I read "Bryan Reynolds to the BlueJays..." And my heart skipped a few beats. Then disappointment.
  21. 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.
  22. Watch the Yankees reel in Rodon too lol Can't let the Mets out spend them
  23. 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
  24. Probably the most volatile and unpredictable part of a major league roster. Like I said, tough crowd.
