Dude!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Where in the hell have you been????????????????????

I've been around, mainly trying to steer clear of message boards. The M's are close now, so it seemed like a time to reappear.

Welcome back.

Welcome back.

Thanks bro. I probably missed about 20k of your posts.

Go Mariners!

For me, while I'd love to get Jose Ramirez, I'd like a longer timeline than 2 years. Get Semien and some top of the rotation FA SPs. Or as an alternative to Semien, if they can trade for Jorge Polanco without giving up too much of the farm.

Who do you like for a SP. I like that Rodon is young but he might not even pitch in the playoffs due to more injuries.

For those who want Semien, why would he and the Blue Jays not want a reunion?

He thinks the Blue Jays "became the best team in baseball."

They could easily pay him considering Guerrero, Bichette and Biggio are making zilch.

If I'm the Jays I pay him 3-years $80 million and call it a day.

Here's a listing of the FA pitchers, sorted by 2021 fWAR.

Gausman, Ray, ERodriguez, Stroman are all fine.

You could say that about any FA. And you can say the same about our payroll.

Thanks. Yeah I still like Gausman out of that Group. Ray seems a little fluky, ERod had a 4.74 ERA and 1.39 WHIP, and Stroman is a SJW so not my type of human.

To get him, I'd go at least 4 years. He's blocking Biggio, BTW. If I'm the Toronto GM, I'd try to sign him, but even without him Toronto will still be one of the top hitting teams. Toronto is lacking in pitching. so I'd spend to sign SP and high leverage RP.
