Hope these guys continue to climb up the ranks as they're going to be a key part of the team's future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orioles' Davis rips Bautista: 'He's a guy who's easy to dislike' A new chapter in the ongoing feud between Bautista and the Orioles was written on Saturday afternoon thanks to Baltimore's star slugger, Chris Davis. While speaking to fans at the Orioles' annual FanFest, Davis took a moment to rip into the Toronto Blue Jays' star outfielder, who's long been one of the most detested athletes among Baltimore's sports fans. "He's actually a pretty good dude - said no one ever," Davis quipped, according to Jon Solomon of CBS Sports. "... He's a guy who's easy to dislike." http://www.thescore.com/news/1219372 While I disagree with the way Chis Davis went about this interview, he isn't wrong.

Really thought Alford would've been rated higher, seems like Vladdy has been doing well for himself though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beary Sweet Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 Just heard on Tim and Sid that the Jays have signed JP Howell to a 1 year deal. He had a sub 2 ERA. Here's hoping he becomes a valuable part of our bullpen this season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's hoping he becomes a valuable part of our bullpen this season The sub 2.0 ERA was in 2015. Last season it was slightly over 4.0. Still, big swings in ERA isn't all that uncommon for relievers and I'm okay with his lifetime ERA of 3.77. Howell has a pretty good SO/BB ratio (about 3/1) and a decent WHIP of 1.4. Looks like a solid replacement for Cecil. I'll be interested to see what the money is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems a bit low (I'd say B-) but Boston traded for an ace and NY signed a player back they traded away at the deadline for some major prospects. I have no issues putting either team ahead of us. Baltimore should be a D though considering they didn't replace their catcher and Tampa Bay should be an F for selling.

We don't have a capable replacement for Edwin. Expecting that much out of the pickups combined is asking way too much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
