You're thinking of Vanek.

Vanek was a gambler.

The folks on TBS have it right. The most dangerous thing to this team is the layoff coming up.

I was hoping someone would notice. I had an old HG shirt of my brother's, and i used it as a gym shirt in high school. Cool points were off the charts,

Could be but the offence has their confidence back now after losing it in september. Id say the most dangerous thing to the jays is the fact that in a best of 7 cleveland and boston have the edge on paper.

I don't know. The pitching for all 3 remaining team's right now is ordinary. Stroman and Estrada might have the best performances outside of Bumgarner in the entire postseason.


And the entire TBS studio crew just randomly started singing Oh Canada.

Waiting for the air date . It is going to air on A&E and FYI networks . Show is called Operation Build . Better stop. Certain folks do not like me talking about my business. Just really excited right now. Sealed the Australia deal to and I have the first Cellular amplifier ever approved by the government in Australia. They were illegal till now.

keep the first 4

if you let buff slide for gostibehere, it's ok as well

I guess if you can keep them for many years, you need to keep gostibehere

the jays can set the pitching staff the way they want to now, something they couldn't do with the play in game

So with the Yakapov trade on Friday, the Blues have 820k of cap space left. Could we see a Shattenkirk trade for less than what asking before the season starts?

Issue is we are running out of space too, so if it was to us, it would have us trading something like a Girgensons and 2nd rounder (maybe, if we are lucky) for him, we would have to move a Franson (which we would all want) for next to nothing or maybe even have to pay (a pick) to make it happen.

I think I would still want this, bad, just saying there would be a few moving pieces (different trades) that would be needed to make this happen.

The only way around this would be not signing Risto til the season officially starts (and Cody McCormick can go on LTIR) giving us another 1.5m to help, leaving 5.78m / season for Risto (after a trade for Shattenkirk). Actually we would have whatever was traded too, so Girgensons 1.25m too. Alright maybe we would not need another deal to make it happen.
