Re: 2014 Blue Jays
I might get two amazing rants out of this. So, let's resign him (he does, after all, hit 2.2/10 at bats. 3.5/10, however are Ks)!Comment

Re: 2014 Blue Jays
I'm not the biggest fan of Rasmus. I can see AC's argument but he seems like he doesn't take the game too seriously as he's had discipline problems. I dunno, every time I hear him talk it sounds like he's on downers or something LOL
He's an improvement over Gose offensively though for sure.Member of the Official OS Bills Backers Club

Re: 2014 Blue Jays
Jays are 38-46 in the 84 games Rasmus has played.
He's hitting .201 in the 46 losses with a .235 OBP.
If they continue to play him and he doesn't get hot, there is simply no way the Jays are making the playoffs.
I think there is an argument to be made to play Gose over him, especially if the Jays have already made the internal decision not to re-sign Rasmus. If Rasmus is as good as gone, you might as well try to develop Gose either to increase his value in the off-season as part of a trade or to groom him as the starting CF next year. Neither happens if you use him strictly as the fourth outfielder.Comment

Re: 2014 Blue Jays
That's actually 10000% what it is. There is literally one player in baseball who has that impact and it's Mike Trout. Colby Rasmus does not have a +/- Mike Trout effect."Twelve at-bats is a pretty decent sample size." - Eric ByrnesComment

Re: 2014 Blue Jays
I was listening to PTS yesterday and Jonah Keri made an interesting point that the Jays will probably let Melky walk because he'll demand too much money but then he said that the Jays, rather than going the free agent route should look to trade for a young OF who has some potential. Jackie Bradley Jr's name came up as one potential guy to get.Member of the Official OS Bills Backers Club

Re: 2014 Blue Jays
AA & Gibbons are coming back next year. Not surprising, as Rogers won't want to pay out anybody's contract. Jays fans better hope that Sportsnet's NHL coverage gets monstrous ratings (and advertising $$$) this coming season.Originally posted by Thrash13Dr. Jones was right in stating that.

Re: 2014 Blue Jays
"sigh"
FU ROGERS!
Well at least the article states that Melky wants to stay here. That guy is the straw that stirs the offense's drink.
Still...FU ROGERS!Member of the Official OS Bills Backers Club
