Tony Romo Posted July 30, 2018 Share Posted July 30, 2018 Donaldson hurting himself and us not getting a top prospect for Osuna sets us back 5-10 years imo. Not a fan of the trade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No word on what is coming back at this point. https://www.sportsnet.ca/baseball/mlb/report-blue-jays-trade-roberto-osuna-astros/ Wowwwwwww. Personally I like. Two solid prospects and a reliever to replace Osuna. Him coming back would’ve been a major distraction in the clubhouse imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very intriguing indeed. 2 plus pitches and above average command. However, the PED suspension is somewhat concerning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tortorella's Rant Posted July 30, 2018 Share Posted July 30, 2018 lmao Well, the only bright side of this is that this team is so unbelievably far from being a good team, especially in their division, that even with Osuna they were going absolutely nowhere any time within the next few seasons.

Having Travis's bat in the lineup as a DH sometimes and letting other regular players have a day off is a valuable thing. As bad as Morales was to start the season I do have to give him some credit, yes his power numbers are not good for a DH, but I was shocked to see where is average actually is after how bad it was to start the season, so I have to give him some credit.

RUPERTKBD Posted July 31, 2018 Share Posted July 31, 2018 Loup and Axford moved by the Jays today. I have to confess I'm a bit disappointed that we didn't see even more movement, but Shatkins did a decent job. In other news, JA Happ apparently has contracted Hand-Foot and Mouth disease. https://www.sportsnet.ca/baseball/mlb/yankees-j-happ-contracts-hand-foot-mouth-disease/ I didn't even know this was a thing....I've heard of Foot-in-Mouth disease....It's something Donald Trump has had for years....

ChuckNORRIS4Cup Posted August 1, 2018 Share Posted August 1, 2018 I was actually happy to see them acquire some young pitching in return, I heard a couple days ago they were going to do this and they did, so I have to respect that, it was actually good to see, would of been nice to trade Granderson though as well. Hopefully they can do something with Donaldson, would suck to lose him for nothing, so hopefully he comes back and gets into a groove quick to maybe force a team to trade something for having the rights to maybe negotiate a contract with him first. Next year will be interesting, guys like Morales and Martin will be on their last year of contract, so expect to see them moved and hopefully get some more prospects. Not sure what they're planning with Pillar he isn't signed for next year, would like to get ride of Tulo, but who knows with that mess, might have to be stuck with him for a couple more years or he comes back and magically plays like his old self but I doubt it lol. But overall I definitely have some more interest in this organization again after the moves the last couple days, so that's good to see imo.

RUPERTKBD Posted August 1, 2018 Share Posted August 1, 2018 So whenever you're feeling bad about the state of the Jays, you can just imagine being a Mets fan after the beatdown they suffered at the hands of the Nats last night. Final score was 25-4 and here are a couple of the better post game comments: "Bono, Jimmy Carter, Amnesty International, Oprah & Bishop Tutu call on the UN to intervene in the senseless slaughter of Mets" "Should be noted that Jose Reyes says he is not available to pitch tomorrow. So there's that going for the Mets right now." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RUPERTKBD Posted August 1, 2018 Share Posted August 1, 2018 I think I'm as disappointed in the injury to LG jr as I am anything else. https://www.sportsnet.ca/baseball/mlb/blue-jays-gurriel-jr-expected-weeks/ Gurriel's streak of consecutive multi-hit games was one of the few things left to cheer for when watching a game. With momentum and repetition being such a big part of what makes a hitter successful, it's long odds that he'll be able to carry that streak any further when he rejoins the club. Only two more games to tie a 95 year old record.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
