We got Ray

pitching and an ELITE TOP OF THE ROTATION arm is the biggest need. We just addressed it.

Seager, Correa, Bryant, Freeman, Story et al all still on the board too, boys

This is a game changer for sure. Now go get Story, and Bryant.

We finally have a strikeout pitcher again. Yes Gilbert looks to be one but so glad to get Ray. Pitching is bigger then offense. Still need a bat though.

Guys, we took Ray from not only the Jays but the Angels.

That matters too.

So the Jays give Gausman 5/110 but lose Ray to 5/115. That seems odd.

I'll take a real power pitcher any day over that knuckleballer!
We won that deal.

And we SHOULD be the favorites for those two players. Really, REALLY should be.

If Jerry gets us Bryant and Seiya. Then I won’t egg him at spring training. But this is baby poop so far. Yes we had to have Ray but this gets us really nowhere without 2 more solid bats

Jon Heyman says we're in on Javier and Bryant.

There you go right there!

Honestly did not think we had a chance at Robbie Ray. I mean, a left-hander that just won the Cy Young, I figured he would want 7/175 or better, and that he would get it. But this deal seems pretty reasonable.

it is a head scratcher. For them.

The only worry about Ray for me is he doesn't have a huge track record. But he did figure it out. He dominated last year in the AL East. He's been a workhorse. Hopefully we can push him and get another 200+ innings out him in '22 and he leads us in big games.

Damn for our team I want Bryant.
You're on roll Jerry....GET ER DONE!

And in other news - the Pirates signed former Mariner Ben Gamel ($1.8M). And reportedly the Jays are interested in Kikuchi.

Kikuchi for Ray? Jays would be taking a big step down!
