Blue Jays Discussion: The official Davis Schneider Appreciation Society

[Bjindaho]

It even almost seems like everyone is throwing shit at the wall and seeing what sticks since no one knows anything.

I would agree with that.

Honestly, I think there are 3 finalists for Ohtani and two of them are in LA.

Lol lets not play verbal gymnastics, Soto is heading to the Yankees, a divisional rival.

I have no idea what you mean by "nothing happens" as one of the two big names we were rumored to be interested in is currently at the end stages of becoming a New York Yankee.

"Nothing happens" refers to the two players you are upset about the Jays not getting still being available. Yes, it seems like it's close to done with the Yankees, but these things fall through all the time. It's not done until it's done.

I just love the speculation by American reporters who can't compute in their heads an elite superstar considering the Igloos in Canada, especially those summer 30°C ones

 

[Da Cool Rula]

Monday i thought there's no way they sign Ohtani. Yesterday I started to think well maybe its possible. Today I'm not sure. The soap opera continues.

 

[Dr.Funk]

 

[Discoverer]

That would make sense, and it would help them continue the strategy of adding left-handed bats to play in their little league park.

What's that weird C you're using. No understand. Also 30 degrees in below the freezing mark of 32. So cold baseball.

 

[Eyedea]

I wonder if playing in Korea with the Dodgers against San Diego would at all be appealing to Ohtani. It's not too far from home and he could have friends and family at the series.

I believe there will be a series in Tokyo by 2026 so I’d imagine whoever gets him will play in that series lol

Who said that?

 

[Suntouchable13]

Vladdy likes to talk, right? So I am hoping he is talking to Ohatani every day.

 

[Woodman19]

Who said that?

No one, it's just the stereotypical view that we live in a frozen tundra and don't exist to most of them lol

 

[ER89]

Guess it's hard to drum up clicks without 2 American teams seriously in the mix.

Seriously it's so annoying lol

Man i will say, if ohtani doesn't sign and Soto to nyy, this off season barring trades has the makings of a snooze fest/ failure for the Jays

And that's not in management the fa is bleak. Paying belly 250is gross imo.

Advanced trade talks are not "nothing", the deal by all accounts seems to be imminent.

He's not the one doing the verbal and mental gymnastics.....just putting that out there.

Can you showcase where I've done this?

 

[Woodman19]

If we don't get Ohtani, I want no part in FA unless it's on a one year. Going to have to move assets to upgrade the lineup if we don't want to kill our financial future.

 

[Canada4Gold]

Yankees Soto trade falling apart now because all the MLB ready arms they were going to trade to San Diego got stolen in the rule 5 draft.

Kidding of course

 

[Dr.Funk]

 

[jetsforever]

Lose-lose where we don't get him and Yankees do
Let's hope something out of the blue comes up to mess this up last minute

 

[Dr.Funk]

I have some level of interest in Bellinger, Hoskins, Justin Turner, Joc Pedersen, Mchael Brantley

So, Platoon bats and injury risks. (Some cases both)

 

[red devil]

 

[Hannibal]

We are about to crash down the earth.

 

[Seath The Scaleless]

Ugh no thanks.

 

[Canada4Gold]

Ugh no thanks.

Once we sign Ohtani you kind of have to go cheap in the OF/3B. Of course if we don't sign Ohtani and this is a move then gross.

 

[Woodman19]

Last offseason was the all defense offseason, we need some legit offense this year.

 

[Bjindaho]

He wouldn't be a bad option if he could be had for 5M or so (as an expensive 4th OF)
