OT: The Toronto Blue Jays

[MyNameIsJonas]

The sadness of this offseason so far is only magnified by a certain idiot cunt who i'd very much like to lose visitation rights with his kids, and not get a refund on the tickets he bought to Disney Land

I'm sure MLB will allow them to play in a 5000 seat college stadium for those few years.

The Vegas AAA stadium seats about 9000, which is roughly what the A’s drew in Oakland the last couple of years.

Jesus Christ, no wonder we lost Ohtani.

 

[GEEMAN]

Do we know yet where the A’s are going to play from 2025-27, after their Oakland lease expires and before the Vegas stadium is built? Haven’t really been following it.

Christie Pitts , it holds about 250 seats

Speaking of DH at-bats, guess who's in the Best.Shape.Of.His.Careertm?!

Too much fitness, usually a bad sign.

 

[MyNameIsJonas]

Giants sign Jung Ho-Lee to 6/113M deal.

Anyone who claims to know whether this is good or bad is probably lying.

Nice numbers oversees and can play a decent CF from what i know.

Would have been open to him as a LF for us, but im just as okay not having this happen.

 

[LeafOfFaith]

Not so jung ho about that signing then.

 

[MyNameIsJonas]

I have zero interest in banking on DH PA for Jansen and Kirk, both have injury histories Jansen only works as a DH vs LHP and KIrk maybe not at all. Do not let how you feel about these guys cause you to not sign a DH only bat.

 

[MyNameIsJonas]

This could in theory remove the Giants from the Bellinger sweeps, which based on what i hear, and fit, leaves the Cubs and Jays as i assume NYY is out cause Soto, and SDP cause broke.

 

[zeke]

trying to care but failing.

 

[Aberdeen]

And for that reason...I'm out.

Wake me when they''ve made the playoffs next.

If Kirk's bat rebounds (and I fully expect him to be better, the question is how much), he's too good a hitter to just be a backup C.

Not saying they shouldn't add a bench bat who can DH (a la Belt) just sayin' don't forget about Kirkie.

Dec 3rd:

We're going to pivot to talking about Varsho and Manoah bounce back seasons, and going into the details of Alejandro Kirk's off season workout routine within the next 2 weeks.

 

[axlsalinger]

Dec 3rd:

congrats for coming up with some obvious things to talk about

Yeah, we have a great track record with our fat guys working out hard in the offseason

Make him earn everything. He and Jansen are rarely healthy together. Don’t sacrifice the quality of the DH you get because you might want to put Kirk or Jansen there. Batshit stupid

 

[MyNameIsJonas]

Within 2 more weeks were going to be seeing hype articles on Barger and Orelvis after the team signs guys like Justin Turner Joc Pederson or Michael Brantley to 1 year deals and how nice it is to compete now, but also not block "top" prospects.

Rowdy Tellez to Pittsburgh.
