We just got the top player available this offseason lol... Wtf are you talking about?
And Ryu is one of the best starters over the past 3 years.. you're clueless on that..
deGrom? He's homegrown.
Cole? Why would you want to pay that much and that long for a pitcher!?!Those better players were mostly extensions.. Trout, Acuna, Tatis, Etc.. they weren't FA's..
What will your excuse be when the Jays extend Vlad to something similar?Once again, your tax argument is false. They aren't taxed much more if at all than most states, and considering Rogers can afford to overpay for FAs it doesn't really matter.
Winning is all that matters.. players will come when the team is a winner and sustainable. Which we just saw this offseason. -
Jays players won't be paying any Canadian tax until they play home games in Toronto again. Pretty sure their taxation depends on the game's soil location. As for payroll, I'm pretty sure the Jays were paying in USD all the way back in the 90s for sure. Possibly earlier, but I wasn't paying a whole lot of attention to Jays payroll when I was in high school.
I've previously expressed a doubt about Ryu's lone playoff performance for Toronto, but it was a single game. I've got to assume he'll be better the next time around. He's certainly capable of putting up shutdown numbers despite the low velo. Ray is putting up great K numbers, Matz looks like the missing piece in the Mets rotation, and Manoah is no doubt going to be great. I'm a lot less concerned about the starters and much more concerned about the team getting relievers slotted into solid roles (and for sure, getting Merryweather back). The offense is so good Springer coming back is just gravy, which is wild considering how big of a deal his signing was.

It's just insane how Vlad has turned into literally the guy everyone dreamed on. He's leading the world in everything.
This team is going to be cheap and affordable for years. They have no more dead money after this year, and one of the best farms in baseball besides being already one of the youngest cores in the game. It's an envious position to be in.
They can overpay just about any free agent and still be in amazing shape this next offseason. And that's AFTER they just spent 150 mill on Springer lolAnd they've always paid in USD.
The fact that they can offset tax differences with overpayment by having enviable payroll flexibility and obviously one of the richest owners in sports makes that whole tax argument a non issue..Winning brings players..

Sure hope he stays hot, but this season is already a dream season for him. Just brilliant.

Losing to a 4th place team like that gotta suck

That was a blood bath.

Jays could be really scary if they can land some decent pitching in the offseason
*relief pitching. Starting pitching is actually doing solid right now.
Agreed but that's still not as solid as I would like to see it. Either way, these guys are fun to watch as a fan
No need to wait for offseason. Trade for an ace this deadline.
Ryu, Ray, Manoah, Matz 2-5 is great...
Scherzer will do
If the goal is postseason, yes. If it’s WS, no. They’ll need more depth with pitching and that defense will kill you in the postseason; it always comes up big in October.
-
I have Ryu, Biggio, Teoscar, Grichuk, and Lourdes on my fantasy team. A lot riding on this team!

The defense is middle of the pack this year.. which is fine with that offense..
And ya, a lot riding on Ray staying great which is iffy.. Pearson needed to get it together. -
Just went back to check the final score! Wow, 8 bombs! That was kind of awesome. Wish I had of watched it.

You’ll be back in 4th soon don’t worry. I’ve never seen people so excited for a 4th place team like the blue jays fans on twitter lol. It’s funny. I guess they’ve been so bad for so long. I get a crack out of trolling all of you.

That didn’t make sense but okay. I might need a Canadian to American translator to help me on this one.
How does one say enjoy your 4th pace finish in the queens English or French?

It's a pretty bad look to diss on someone else's fandom. It's highly personal, as I'm sure you know from following whatever team you follow. I think it's reasonable for all Jays fans to be pretty excited about this team.
"The Queen's French" has me wondering, which queen? Marie Antoinette?

Doesn’t even say the queens French. I knew there had to be a language barrier.
Y’all blue jays fans too fun to troll though.
