Blue Jays Discussion: The official Davis Schneider Appreciation Society

[canucksfan]

I was actually thinking about Eden a few weeks ago. Great base runner and very good defender. Good bench piece and fits a role the Jays currently don’t have

Top 10 "hosed" AL batters (% strikes called outside the zone, min 500 pitches):

Cavan and Schneider really going to benefit from robot umps.

5 of the top 9 'hosed' players being Blue Jays indicates that there is some sort of ingrained ump bias issue. That seems beyond random.

Great pinch running option for Kirky late in games.

The more I sleep, the crappier I feel. The once-in-a-blue-moon I am so wiped I sleep 10 to 11 hours, I wake up with a headache and feeling sluggish throughout the day.

More than half the day sleeping? Couldn't fathom.

I'm the opposite. When I go 10+ hours, I feel like I can run a marathon. Less than 8 hours? Hit or miss whether I can somewhat contribute to society or I'm a useless zombie that needs a light nap mid-day

Kikuchi is living the dream lol

I mentioned him as the guy who should have been added instead of McCoy.

Other than Espinal we’re talking about guys with like 98+ percentile chase rates. Have to imagine players that don’t bite on anything outside are going to have more pitches around the corners/slightly off the plate called strikes.

 

[the valiant effort]

Kiermaier is the kinda guy you keep for as long as he wants to stay.

LOL

Takes me 3 days to get that much sleep

Bro what!?
This has gotta be some kinda mis translation or its quite the revelation damn

 

[fancy lad]

jeez. sounds like more than just soreness.

fingers crossed he's good to go for the playoffs if we get there.

I think that the Jays depth is shining through. They have faced some injury issues late in the season. Some teams wouldn’t be able to handle losing the whole left side of the infield for as long as the Jays did. Of course, the pitching staff staying intact helps, but still. Biggio and Espi stepped up. Then guys like Horwitz, Schneider, and Clement also helped to keep the ship afloat. Lots of credit to those guys. If Vladdy now needs some time, Horwitz will be just fine in his place.

Also have Belt coming back as well.

O yea, when he is due back? Haven’t heard many updates on him.

 

[MS]

I'm guessing a lot of everything that's happened over the past couple months is tied to the knee injury that he suffered in mid-May and that it's never really healed properly.

Qualifying Offer value to land around 20.5

Should be interesting with Chapman…

I'm offering that all day everyday.

I'm pretty sure I've come to the conclusion I'm not signing him to a long term deal. The D is still amazing but the bat just hasn't been what we thought it could have been coming to Toronto from the Coliseum. But if he somehow accepts that QO I'll take one more year at 20.5 til we can figure out if we have something with Barger or someone in the system.

That said he's not accepting with the FA market as thin as it is.

Easy decision I think. You qualify him. If for whatever reason he takes it, you take 1 year of Chapman at 20 million if he goes out and gets paid elsewhere you get an extra pick.

This. 1000%

Rays got him from the Indians for nothing in an inconsequential trade years ago and now he is seen as a top 10 prospect in all of baseball on some lists.

Don’t trade prospects to the Rays.

Never trade with the Rays at all. Their vets fall off a cliff when they leave and they develop fringe prospects into stars.

He's probably nothing as a 25-year-old corner OF with a 118 wRC+ in AA, but I've always found Robertson to be an interesting bat for some reason even though his numbers weren't very good. This year his wRC+ was 77 at the end of June, but then it was 162 the rest of the way.
