Lingering guilt over costing us a couple of Super Bowl runs with the Hutch deal.
I just caught this for the first time on the weekend and I found him very well spoken, open and articulate.
The Jays landed a great pitcher and an even better person. Always refreshing to hear an...
Johann you're killing with the Jenneke signature. I re-read your post three times before I digested any of the words.
It might be a good idea to start Romero. Not that he deserves it but if all...
Sigh-last summer I dropped close to $400 on a Majestic authentic white Jays jersey with #15 D'Arnaud. I will still wear it -along with my JMac jersey. :mad:
Sigh -if you see it at the park just...
That was funny. Good stuff.
While I don't like the thought of moving TDA for a 38 year old journey man cum ace it does seem like a good opportunity to solidify the rotation. A bit short sighted...
Lee is under contract for at least $ 109 million or up to $ 124 million with team option.
Ellsbury owed 8 million this year and is arb eligible next year then a FA.
Seems like a pretty accurate...
KC-wild thoughts of Butler as a Jay.
The Phillies are such a mess I wonder if they would trade to move some contracts ?" All their money is tied up in 3 starters ( two of which are older) and 3 infielders. It just gets really odd when...
I would love to see a Billy Butler type on the Jays but without gutting the prospects I can't see it happening. The reports indicate that the Jays seem to be at their threshold for salary and any...
Well said Jet.
I like Cooper. He's an in house solution to a glaring need and allows AA to allocate any remaining money/ assets towards acquiring pitching help.
I think Coopers skill set is very...
If the Jays are going to make another move involving moving assets/ taking on salary I really hope its for another front of the rotation starter. We have lots of pop in the line up so I would like to...
Maybe Gibby will give Mickey Brantley another shot at Hitting Coach. He would be a refreshing change from the "wait for your pitch swing really hard" mentality that leads to a lower OBP but a lot of...
Thunder dome !! Two men enter- one man leave !
Russ Adams ! Still makes me cringe when I see his name.
My father in law was a southern university educated Naval Commander but every time he tossed out a southern colloquialism like " y'all" I smirked and had to remind myself that this guy is not the...
Was really hoping that AA was going to add to his legend by dragging Felipe Alou/ Tony Larussa out of retirement. Wishful thinking.
Or going in another more progressive direction and hiring a...
Tough travel schedule, tough barn to put up big power numbers ( which effects $ come contract time ) , lack of national endorsement options, and absence of a winning tradition.
Most of which...
Love Sizemore but I would sign him to a league minimum with a whack of incentives for games played. Or days not on a disabled list !
I hope the Jays spend whatever money they have left on another...
I like Rasmus. He's a young hitter and as a CF we don't need him to be a 30-100 guy. Improve his OBP a little and if he hits 20 hr and drives in 60 then he's golden.
His gait/ way he moves reminds...
I would gas up my car and head on down to Philly and help Doc move.:D
Even if he's losing velocity he will still have location and the love of every fan
he pitches in front of. Even if he's the #...
Wow !!!!
I have wood. Yep. Not ashamed to say it !
I think the lack of talk about Kuroda likely stems from prior years and him wanting to remain on the West Coast. After all he did invoke his no trade clause in 2011.
Last year he surprised the...
I would think only Trout and Vernon Wells are untouchable. For completely different reasons ;) And if they sign Greinke they will still have CJ Wilson in their rotation.
I only mentioned Weaver as...
Plugging someone into 3rd is ( ie Chavez) at an acceptable cost is far easier than getting a controllable top of the rotation pitcher for peanuts.
If you have a trade or scenario where the Jays get...
