OT: Toronto Blue Jays v3.0: MLB Free Agency

[Tofveve]

this is suck

 

[Lunatik]

I'm proud of what our boys did this year. But this ****ing sucks.

 

[Tofveve]

Oh well, good run. KC was always a tough team for us.

 

[Tofveve]

I'm proud of what our boys did this year. But this ****ing sucks.

Yeah. Seems like such a waste having a guy on third with no one out.

 

[Wayne Primeau]

Well, at least Fox got who they wanted to the World Series.

 

[Ace Rimmer]

 

[Tofveve]

And too bad about Price.

 

[Lunatik]

Now for the off season, which scares the **** out of me this year.

 

[Zirakzigil]

Now for the off season, which scares the **** out of me this year.

Could lose a lot of good players. I really hope Price and Estrada come back, Price especially.

 

[Lunatik]

Could lose a lot of good players. I really hope Price and Estrada come back, Price especially.

I really want both back. We've already lost one starter in Buehrle

 

[Wayne Primeau]

I really want both back. We've already lost one starter in Buehrle

If I’m Anthopoulos, I’m throwing insane money at Price. I’d give him 20M more than his demands.

 

[Lunatik]

Price will get close to a $200,000,000 contract. $25-30 million for 7+ years is pretty much a guarantee.

 

[Zirakzigil]

Price will get close to a $200,000,000 contract. $25-30 million for 7+ years is pretty much a guarantee.

Rogers can afford it. Hopefully the playoffs have them seeing dollar bills and they will be willing to toss money at Price. Heck sign Price and Greinke and the pitching will be set!

 

[Anglesmith]

Saw they lost, and just assumed they went down without a fight in the ninth... just checked the box score... no words.

 

[Lunatik]

I am looking at the contract situations and so much about MLB free agency makes absolutely no sense to me. 32 year old Colabello is still under team control next year and has 3 seasons left with arbitration rights. He will be 37 before he is an outright UFA

 

[Johnny Hoxville]

Totally did not watch the Flames, I was all about this. I seriously feel heart broken right now. Once I have a chance to reflect I'll appreciate the season they had more, but I feel devastated and sick right now. The way this game went, Joey's homer in the 8th, then how it ended. I really thought this season was destiny for them.

I just can't believe how down I am right now.

I know what you mean. I PVR'd the Flames game and turned it on as a distraction, but I can't focus and I can't stop thinking about the Jays.

 

[Volica]

Saw they lost, and just assumed they went down without a fight in the ninth... just checked the box score... no words.

That was a heart breaker, for sure.

A guy on third with no one out, Dalton to boot, who's fast as all hell. Any fly ball into the middle outfield or deeper (maybe not towards left, but centre or right field) and this game would probably go to extras.

I don't know if Dioner was the right call to replace Goins. who was hitting fairly well this series (wasn't last night, but still) and Revere got a bit too trigger happy. Can't really ask for more than Josh Donaldson to come up representing your last out. Unfortunately he grounded out... but man, that some high highs and then some low, lows.

Looking forward to the off-season. I think the Jays should probably pass on the Price sweepstakes. He's going to be commanding a lot of money this year, I don't think it's worth throwing 150-200+million his way until he's in his late 30's. I'd probably go a bit of a different route, look at some middle rotation relief in Samardzija, Gallardo, etc. Like the Stro-show get the ball on opening night, find out what you have in Sanchez and Osuna... A lot of possibilities there.

 

[Anglesmith]

One thing I realized last night is that Bautista is now the franchise record-holder for home runs in a post-season. Not sure if it was mentioned already in this thread.

Also, a lot of people get focused in on what we can lose this off-season, but we can also pick up the free agents from other teams.

Also an excellent point.

Apparently on Spotrac there is a FA tab which clarifies alot

The UFAs we have are:

I'd like Price, Estrada and Lowe back. Navarro leaving will free up some money with all the raises coming and Martin's huge boost in salary for next year.

Great season.. terrible ending. We just didn't have the post-season experience we needed IMO.

As for the off-season, Price is a must IMO. We need that guy to get to the playoffs. And I think he showed he can pitch in the playoffs the last few games. Yeah he's going to cost money, but the potential ticket revenue from a winning team totally counteracts that.

Estrada I'd be OK with too, but at a reasonable cost.

Not sure what will happen with Goins/ Travis. Personally I think Goins defense is too good to pass up, and I think by trading Travis we could get a legit piece for the bullpen or an upgrade at first base in return.

AA walked away today from an offer for an extension.

i had a feeling that would happen. Having a baseball guy as president would affect him dramatically

This is really lame, his 5 year extension that was offered was more than likely filled with a bunch of stipulations, which would severely inhibits his power. I'm sure Shapiro is great, but I feel like this was a big blow to the Jays.

I'm not big into baseball, but I caught on the radio that his contract stipulated that he wouldn't have the final say in player personnel movements, etc. Is this regular in baseball? Are GM's just talking heads or...?
