The Jays currently have 2 aces it looks like (Manoah and Gausman), you want to basically replicate the Philies with Halladay, Oswalt and Hammels? Not that i'm against that.

Another thing to note...

Semien's value last year was purely based on his power.

He's never been a great contact hitter or getting on base at an exceptional rate, although his 2nd last year on the As was overall a better...

It's going to be the Yankees, Astros, probably the Twins and 2 AL East teams for the Wild Card game.

The only real race atm is if Cleveland or Chicago can overtake Minnesota and which 2 AL East...

The baseball gods saw that the Angels were not close to a .500 team and so they put their plan into action.

Soon the Angels will win 3-4 games to restore balance.

Tbh let's look at some things.

Jose Berrios vs Marcus Stroman = Do we really want either of these pitchers right now? At the time keeping Berrios was the right move, but yeesh, not looking pretty...

There are bad pitching staffs

The Nationals: Team ERA 4.91


Then there is the Reds: Team ERA 6.71


Yeah, the Reds team ERA is almost somehow 2 runs worst than the 29th spot.

You'd expect to have more offensive production right of the bat and gradually get to their norms when the season starts, not this year.


Here's some stats for the teams leading their fields in...

It's truly sad that a team with a rich history of the A's has been reduced to this and it's an inevitability that they'll be moved.

Obviously you still want that player.

The reason why I bring up this question is injuries.

For premium defensive positions that require the player to put their body on the line much more often,...

Go 15 for all I care.

This guy legit could be our Miggy, except that we drafted him out of the gate.

I don't think the Jays have 'that guy' in the HoF yet where you hear their name and you...

Whomever gives Judge a 7+ year deal at $200 million+ is going to regret it.

Pujols was a way more accomplished hitter when he hit FA and the Angels soon regretted that contract.

Judge is a...

We really just switched Gausman for Ray, both pitchers had outstanding years, Kevin is 31 Ray is 29 years old, both pitchers could suddenly have a bad season.

Both got 5 years and Robbie Ray got...

As we all know the Sultan of Swat started as a pitcher pretty much robbing him of some counting stats with the bat.

What would Ruth's career look like if he was an everyday outfielder to start out...

The one thing the Jays need to make sure that they have enough money to lock in Bichette and especially Vlad long term.

The Jays had a good offense, not a historic one overall.

To get to historic levels your offense needs to be able to knock in close to or over 1000 runs in the year.

Semien is not going to hit close to 45 homeruns ever again.

Props to him for having the most homeruns for a 2nd baseman in a season but the guy is probably going to regress massively next season. ...

From a ratings standpoint only.

A wire to wire chase with 4 teams to the bitter end with the playoffs being decided by the 9th inning and now you have the Yankees vs the Red Sox in a death match...

It was a nice season everyone.

Boston just went up 7-5.....

That split against the Twins is probably going to cost us.

Were doing exactly what we need to against Baltimore so far but it may be too little too late.

We need to hope the Nationals hang on...

I think moving forwards many players will flirt with 60, but it took Roids to get to 70+.

In order for 70+ home Runs to be possible sans PEDs, a player probably has to have the power of a Stanton...

And yet they can still make the playoffs without having to face the dodgers because the Braves are underachieving relative to their pythagorean record.

We really have to hope the Yankees go on a slide because I think the hot month is probably over.

I think the Red Sox have a wild card spot on lock honestly.

I mean, that the risk you take when you sign FA entering or in their 30s.

Ryu is 34 and is maybe on the decline of his career.

Like Soto was GREAT last year hitting Avg .351 OBP .490 SLG .695 OPS 1.185 WAR 2.1

But honestly i'm more impressed with him this year considering the sample size.

Avg .314 OBP .457 SLG...

I'm honestly not going to put much stock into making the playoffs last year.

Not only was the season a 3rd of the usual amount of games a season has, but the Jays were only 5 games above .500 and...
