    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

    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

    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.

    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
  7. 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)

    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.

    Warmoth was taken in the minor league rule 5 and the Jays took a AA catcher from the Dodgers
  12. 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.
  13. 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.
  14. Eat My Shatkins
    Who is the Jays #4 option then?
  15. Eat My Shatkins
    Haha, well hopefully the Jays land somebody they are after.
  16. Eat My Shatkins
    $20 million for projected 1.8 WAR? lol f*** off
  17. Eat My Shatkins
    The Jays could use him either way.
  18. Eat My Shatkins
    Projections seem to like Heaney. Fangraphs says 2 years $10 million per. K rate sure jumped last year too.
  19. Eat My Shatkins
    I can't see the Jays blowing their wad on a 40 year old pitcher for 3 years even if it is reigning CY winner Justin Verlander But who knows, maybe they have a bigger wad than we anticipated?
  20. Eat My Shatkins
    Kikuchi had a rough year but he still projects as a 1.2 WAR pitcher and White put up 1.3 WAR last season and projects as a 0.8 WAR pitcher. Kikuchi started 20 games for the Jays last year and they still won 92 games, and White combined to start 18 games for last season for two playoff teams. I dunno man, if those are your projected 6th and 7th starters I think you're doing pretty good.
  21. Eat My Shatkins
    Yeah, that'd be awesome. Sign an OFer (Conforto? Nimmo maybe?) Trade for a somewhat controllable young starter (Lopez?) Sign Senga Manoah Gausman Berrios Lopez Senga Kikuchi White Solid rotation depth that can spill over into the bullpen, and then you have guys like Tiedemann and Zulu really close too.
  22. Eat My Shatkins
    Is there any projections on Senga? I'm still hoping the Jays nab him
  23. Eat My Shatkins
    The thought of adding another bat like that is sure fun, but with Espinal/Merrifield and possibly even Barger in the mix, sure seems like they'd be better off addressing the OF or starting rotation with that type of money. But WAR added is WAR added I guess.
  24. Eat My Shatkins
    Xander isn't coming off a down year though looking for a show me contract like Semien was? Not sure if that's what you meant. I like Bo and all, but I would be fine with trading him for something we need if they can sign Bogaerts or Correa. A high end MLB SP or a young CF with control perhaps?
  25. Eat My Shatkins
    lol as if the Rays were in on that deGrom bidding war.
