Yeah they won...

Yeah I still don't like them, especially the whining after the trade deadline. Some of the prima dona's on the Jays may want the organization to trade away its entire future for one run at a penant with a group that could mentally collapse at any moment ... I prefer what Anthopoulos chose.

Depends on Stroman/Sanchez and how EE, Lind and Lowrie do when they come back. One worrying thing I heard is that the kids are on a pitch count and will be shut down if innings get too high. Can you imagine how this city would explode if those two get shut down with a few weeks to go and Jays are in a position to do something.

Has potential to be damn interesting, that's for sure.

I think the leafs are creeping into your Jays analysis

I agree on the Bautista and Janssen (think it was him) who were complaining about not getting players.. I would think they would feel that they are good enough to win without anyone else...at least thats what I would want to hear from them

I don't like the whining but these opportunities don't come along very often - especially in AL East. Too many guys about to become UFAs and you need to show them you are serious. This team could take a big step back w/out Melky, Jannsen and others.

Not really. AA will only make safe deals. Won't pay up at big moments.
- Canada Cup


Yeah he has never made any big deals only safe ones.

Except for that time when he brought in seemingly half a team over a 2 week periond and gave up like 4 of the top 6 prospects in the organization.

So they make a deal now ... and they *don't* win?

What is left as the current core (that couldn't win anyway) begins to fade away to other teams and we have nothing of value in the farm. Then no free agents want to come here and the whole thing snowballs for how many more years of futility?

This

Also, I soured on this core last year, with the Lawrie Ahole tweets and Bautista arguing with the umpires and the 3 or 4 pitchers injured pretty much every year... with the World Series swagger in April, and then almost being about the worst team in baseball.

Since when this board turned into F@#$N baseball buzz??

Baseball is as much a sport as darts and bowling are.

and if they gamble and lose ...

Those guys all leave anyway, AND you have nothing in the system, and who wants to come here?

My feeling is that guys who whine like that will be gone regardless and they don't have a winning attitude.
