The best thing about that take was the patronizing.
“It’s obvious to anyone who understands prospects”, “you guys can’t read a stat line”, etc.
Rhys on a 1 year deal coming off an injuryWouldn't surprise me to see them go after either a non-tender, or just trade for someone who's borderline. Like a Tyler O'Neill is probably not getting the 5.5m or so his arb needs to be, so I could either letting them non-tender and you sign them, or if you are willing to pay that money, give them an a-ball pitcher for his rights. Grabbing someone like him along with a Joc Pederson ss like platoon LF/DH options makes some sense.
Kirk is going to age so badly.Yup it was a stupid trade from Day 1. I don’t see how anyone wanted to keep Kirk over Morano.
They had good attendance so points for that but with a high payroll to balance it out.Yeah, they’re running it back.
When they hired these losers I thought we were in for a decade of futility. I hoped Atkins would be gone after 5 or 6 years and Shapiro after his second GM failed. I did not expect Atkins to become the longest tenured Jays GM other than Gillick.
And any “but they made the playoffs” arguments are meaningless. Ash and Ricciardi would have made 12-team playoffs too, despite having serious financial constraints.
So nice of the Blue Jays social media to wish Canadians a Happy Thanksgiving. Oh wait, they have not posted anything in 5 days.
The 8/9th of the Atlanta-Philly was insane
the moron simply does their biddingNone of this stuff even matters.
If we have a manager whose specialty is self-sabotage, we’re not winning shit. I can live with Shatkins if they must stay, but they have to get rid of this moron.
