Yes, someone was arguing with me about Merryweather the other day 🤔

😆

I believe the comment was C grade prospect

- mr.sir


Hah ..well that meh prospect is throwing 99mph past the Stankies. My understanding was that he was a high ceiling but high risk type. Injuries and inconsistencies but if you could figure him out he had decent starter or back of the bullpen potential.

All that said ..advantage pitching in April.

Hopefully he's on his way to good health.

But if you're Dubie and at best, you've got Freddy and Soup going forward don't you have to grab a number 2/3 guy b/c the concern that one or both of those guys re-injuring themselves has to be real?

Either way he's got another week to measure the need to get another guy.

Wait a week, evaluate trade options for position players and see where things sit.

What kind of pitching depth do Jays have this year?

Ya I think so. Get deep into some negotiations but don't bite yet. Prices will come down.

Bullpen is pretty deep. Lots of good/great prospects. Starters behind Ryu is razor thin ..big drop off.

Looks like they're sniffing around on another starter. And they need Pearson to get healthy.

They better do more than sniff -- razor thin / big drop off after Ryu is spot on.

“Hey Wedgie, what are you watching!”

“Almost Famous on Turner Classic Movies.”

“What’s it about?”

“It’s the heartwarming story of a musician - played by Billy Cruddup - who cheats on his wife by having sex with a 16 year old, played by Kate Hudson.”

“That sounds really franking creepy.”

“Yeah, it’s worse. They allude to the fact that he had sex with her the year before, when she was 15. Oh, and he transports her on a bus across state lines, so he should be charged with the federal crime of sex trafficking.”

“This is on Turner Classic Movies?”

“Yeah, not sure how this thing is still considered to be a good movie.”

Not to be that guy, but Penny's age is never established in that movie. I mean, Kate Hudson was 20-21 when they filmed Almost Famous and she definitely doesn't across as any younger.

Anna Paquin's character? Yeah, let's talk about the Leafs. This is a Leafs forum right? Do they play tonight? Gotta go check... I'll be right back, I swear!

I’m starting to think the leafs don’t make a trade until right near the deadline. Give them time to accrue more cap space and time to see what the goalie situation will be like. 7 day quarantine helps now too.

Hope he can keep it up, Jays finally win a season opening game. Love that play by Semien. The moon shot by Hernandez was nice too
