I “was” just watching Jeff Blair taking calls from BJ fans. Is Jeff Blair ok? Does he have some emotional issues? He just flipped out on two callers in a row. I turned the channel .

Good grief. I don't blame Blair a bit for losing it with those idiot callers. Some fans really need to realize how little they know and keep their mouths shut.

Looks like MLB did a top 100 and team re-rank.

Top 100: MLB.com 2018 Prospect Watch

Jays: MLB.com 2018 Prospect Watch

Vladdy (2), Bo (9), Alford (41) and Pearson (86).

The Jays list is fine from 1-4 but the rest is strange. Warmoth (5) moved ahead of Jansen (6). Urena is still pretty high at (11), Smith (18) and Biggio (19) still seem low. Looks like Diaz isnt there.

Its possible they only re-ranked the players that made the top 100 and will do the rest later.

What a weird list.

Jansen should be a top-50 prospect in MLB, and that's being conservative.

Alford should have dropped considerably.

Warmoth is a flat-out bust. Stick a fork in him. Not a top-20 prospect in the organization.

My question about the Osuna stuff is the suspension is retroactive but he was on paid leave. Seems like he’s getting to keep money that shouldn’t be his

I will also say I hope we don’t give Osuna away for nothing. Look at Chapman who had the same charges. Yanks got him for nothing and traded him for a massive haul a couple months later.

Wow. I was expecting a much longer suspension and certainly wasn't expecting it to be retroactive.

I expected much worse for Osuna.

don't want to make light of it - but some team is going to give him a 2nd chance and I sure hope it's us.

I kind of feel the same. I hate the thought of burning an asset. It’s not like he’s done with baseball. He will have a long career and it may as well continue with us at least until this season is over
