OT: The Toronto Blue Jays

Teo should be shipped out. He is junk.
Im not against this, but he was pretty good post his AAA call up and i think i prefer him as a DH than Grichuk, McKinney, or Fisher as corner OF. Not that says much.

EE on one year doesnt accomplish anything long term and in the short term we arent winning shit in 2020. So beyond nostalgia and mentorship, what does he do? I prefer a gamble on Shaw, Bird, Tsutsugo or Franco. Or take on someones problem and get prospects. Myers or Desmond maybe
 
Who are the premier free agent pitchers, who may be available next year?

Is ryu going to be with the money it will take to sign him?
 
Can someone explain this new 3 batter rule this year .

Let’s say the Jays are up 3-2 in the 7Th .

Charlie puts in a reliever who gets rocked for 2 home runs .

Can we not take him out since he can’t hit the back of a barn that night ?
 
It will make for some interesting moments if that is the case.
Imagine trying to hold a lead, and the pitcher comes in a walks 3 batters in a row because you cant take him out lol.
I wonder how long before the pitchers start taking a knee and faking an injury to be able to be able to be taken out of a game if they arent able to hit the side of a barn?
Tell the pitcher to go in and pitch the one batter and tell him to go down and pretend he is injured so you can use the next matchup you want.
 
But if the manager call for a lefty on lefty matchup, and the pitcher walks him and he doesnt have his "stuff" that game .... couldnt the pitcher just say his shoulder doesnt feel right, therefore negating the minimum 3 batter rule?
It could skewer the whole idea of speeding up the game?
Just wondering

Too many fake injuries and the league will step in. But yeah, where you draw that line, very hard to say. Although to be fair, of all the stupid rule changes proposed recently, I don't hate this one as much as some of the others. People will complain at time, but in the end, it won't really matter.
