Hell yes. I love Melky lol. He'll give us that extra step we need in outfield. We've got some really really good outfield depth now. Bautista, Rajai, Bonafacio, Melky, Gose, Sierra. I mean he was using PEDs, but he's still a good bat to have for sure.

Terrible without the PEDs.

How was I forgetting Rasmus too lol. And he's not terrible. Assuming he wasn't on PEDs before he was a Giant, he can hit for a good .270 avg from what I can see. I like that lineup

 

[elcheato]

The Jays still start Lind?

 

[snipezo]

Lind aint btting cleanup, not a chance.

 

[Elite]

They'd more than likely bat Melky 2 instead of Rasmus too. Rasmus sucks

 

[snipezo]

Rasmus is inconsistent but dude has a sweet swing. I think he'll be fine.

 

[Elite]

If your OBP is under .300, you suck

 

[Mexi]

i was going to applaud whoever signed melky

good job Jays

 

[snipezo]

Rasmus had a decent first half until he started sucking when the Jays started losing. I wouldn't give up on him that easily.

 

[RipCity32]

Jays aint fucking around lol.

 

[snipezo]

Lol "milkey" im gonna have to start callin him that

 

[Mr.Baller]

Man could we canadians get more excited then this for baseball ? Since the Expos are gone I never got that excitement for MLB but now ... DAMN
100 % getting tickets for the season
Now lets just wish that thus whole thing works out the way we want it ... Sucks that the deal is still under review

 

[Mexi]

dont forget Mighty Maicer in yout sig^ lol

he's a really nice player

geez, Jays had quite the offseason

 

[snipezo]

No way Selig vetoes the trade.

 

[Mr.Baller]

No way Selig vetoes the trade.

But why is this taking for ever ? I don't remember BOS-LA trade taking this much time ...

 

[snipezo]

It's like a 12 player swap. Pretty sure some of em are still taking physicals. I wouldnt worry about i.

 

[Mr.Baller]

btw ... do you think our off-season is done ? I still believe AA is going to come up with one more move that would end our off-season on the right path
