So, Kim goes to SD, as does Snell and Darvish - glad the Jays aren't in that division. All other NL West teams should look at doing a dump and run. So now what?
Well, kind of quiet but the Jays did sign a few guys recently. No one to make you jump up and down, but enough of an excuse to start a new topic.
As expected the Jays have
decided to go with AAA Buffalo, AA New Hampshire, A+ Vancouver, A Dunedin (lowest level of the minors now). Goodbye to Lansing (who should find another affiliation - probably Oakland it appears), Bluefield, and GCL Jays. The DSL team might survive though.
The Jays non-tendered two players today - AJ Cole and Travis Shaw.
When I awoke yesterday and heard a lot of rumbling about Blue Jays news, this wasn't my expectation.
Like an early holiday season bonanza and your team has money to spend...
OK, the big one I kept putting off - who are the starting pitchers in 2021 and who could come here?
Part 5 - like the last one, we have a strong incumbent but good free agents exist. Could the Jays force Biggio to go elsewhere on the field?
Part 4 - a position the Jays don't need to upgrade at, but just might anyways and shift Bichette to 3B or 2B depending on an assortment of factors we can't know.
Jays are doing OK so far in the awards season.
Part 3: Now for the position with a premium free agent, maybe the #1 free agent, available for the right price. Jays have kids. Lets see if the Jays should consider blowing a fortune on an upgrade.
Part 2 - the big position for question marks, with not a lot of options out there. Third base.
Yet another Hall of Famer has passed on. This has been a bad year for pretty well everyone, and it's been especially terrible for some of the most legendary baseball players of all time and Whitey Ford was as unusual a legend as one could ask for.
