I’m not torn about McGuire. At one point was highly touted but seems like an average at best catcher.
Yeah Collins having options is the key here looks like.

Plus Collins murders baseballs apparently. High exit velocity guy which this front office loves.

Greg Bird released


The Toronto Blue Jays released veteran first baseman on Monday.
Bird, who signed with the Blue Jays in March, posted a .261 average with two home runs and six RBI in 23 spring-training at-bats

Here is how known Blue Jay hater Marty York thinks they will do this year


@history_rob Since you and many others have asked me, here's how many wins I think they'll get this year - 71.


I know this guy hasn't been relevant since probably the 90's if he was ever even relevant but I just can't stop looking at his Twitter. It's amazing the takes he has.

The guy is a certified idiot. How a religious organization can have him as the face is something else. Takes the contrarian approach on everything. Anyway, hope this is the last mention of him for awhile. I think they’ll hit 96.

What are you looking for? For general status Yahoo is good. For rookies of the year candidates and top prospects I generally do several online reads to get a general consensus as in baseball opinions vary outside the top three prospects at times.

For a fantasy baseball head to head yahoo league draft. Last year I had just relied on the yahoo rankings, and a few rankings I had found online.

I was going to post this in the fantasy thread, but it looks like no one has been in there for months. I'll keep it short. There are a couple of teams available in a dynasty league that is 8 years old, Yahoo. Deep teams, prospects. Looking for new managers that will stick around, and are interested in creatively building a team over multiple seasons. If anyone is interested, send me a message and I'll put you in touch with the Commish. I've been in it from the inception, and only finished in second last year, so it's competitive. Couple of Canadians, the rest American.

Rogers Centre changes this season:



Quote:
A brand new Astroturf field was installed last year, but the team didn’t get the chance to play a full season on it and become comfortable, said Thomas Farrell, director of field operations. The previous field was convertible, so it could be rolled up. Now it’s permanent. A shock pad has been added underneath the turf and sand added to the infill mix, so the field behaves more like real grass, Farrell said.

I'm going to go ahead and blame our SP issues on a short spring training season.

Hoping we turn things around here soon.
