Blue Jays Discussion: 2024-25 Off-season: The free agent watch begins (and sometimes old baseball radio broadcasts)

we are gna do this thing where we get a few players that are gna be shite at batting but shatkins believe can make them into good hitters despite having a horrible track record of batting development the past two years.

I think santander would be a ridiculous mistake. The only bat that truly interests me is alonso.

All the available hitters have flaws, but I'm curious what you feel makes Santander so bad. He's been a consistently very good hitter over the last three years.

How can he be worse than Belt or Turner, which was their "solution" the last couple years.

Yeah obviously he will cost more, but will no doubt be better.

Well i just think to get him we would need to offer 5 years. I think the last two years will be absolutely brutal if not the last 3.

Santander at 3-4 is an easy yes.

I’m curious about this, as many seem to share the sentiment. However nobody seems to have an issue with giving Teo 3 years.

I love Teo and would be thrilled to add him, but I think Santander is the better fit. He’s 2 years younger, and a switch hitter. Both are adventures in the OF, granted Teo has better foot speed.

I’m good adding either, but I think Santander is fits better as a protection behind Vladdy.

The media guys are now linking us to the likes of Max Kepler and Joc Pedersen.

This team is toast with these guys in charge!

Where did you see this?

Yeah I think I would prefer Teo because he's Teo. But setting that's connection aside, I might pick Santander.

If I'm breaking the bank is like to do it on the best hitter available
