  1. One of the biggest things Atkins was responsible for amidst the turmoil, was getting under the lux tax. I bet it's like 50k under. (It's estimated at about 3m over)

    I'll always say that Votto didn't get called up because of the tax. Couldn't risk a single dollar.

    Getting under saves us 500k of international FA money and a 5th round pick if we sign a FA with a QO. Burnes, Santander, etc..

    (It's still 500k and a 2nd round pick to sign one regardless, But 1m if over the tax)

    Hate Atkins, but getting under the tax is his job and he deserves a huge applause if he makes it.

    Sasaki would be nice..every dollar counts. The Jays have had a relationship with him for many years.

    Tho we already have the top SS committed too …

  2. Seriously guys, this is Shapiro & Atkins you’re dealing with. Sasaki is not coming to Toronto, you know that and we all know that. Can’t wait until we get good news from the Jays…oh wait, that won’t happen!!!

  3. We're getting Sasaki for sure!

    Oh, sorry…I meant Yoshihiro Sasaki, a 28-year-old submarine reliever with a 4.78 ERA in the Independent Baseball League of Uganda. The analytics department really likes his potential and Pete Walker thinks he sees something in Sasaki's delivery that he can work with.

  4. I'm completely and utterly disgusted with the Blue Jays management/owner. No Bo or Vladdy, but believing for some reason that other stars will want to come here for ANY amount of money…chasing rainbows.

  5. Stop! Just stop you guys. What a waste of time talking about the Jays being an option. Atkins shouldn’t even waste his time trying to be a “finalist”…..once again.

  6. 1. Less media around the Jays
    2. League best defence which will only help improve his numbers and get him a big payday when he is eventually an MLB free agent
    3. The Jays don’t have a reputation for wrecking guys arms, their SPs aren’t abused and stay mostly healthy

    I think these things would help attract Sasaki. I don’t think the Jays are favourites but I think they have a good chance

  7. why don't we all just accept that while you are led by incompetence no one is coming?
    the Jays are in on __________has to be a joke in other cities.
    The only people that the Jays will sign are bartenders for the new right corner bar. How this management team has survived for ten years is beyond comprehension.
    Quiz:
    other than a few who left on their own terms how many managers got big league manager jobs after being fired by the Jays. Answer: 0

  8. lets play a new game, instead of reporting on "what ifs" and "maybes" and "there's smoke over dem hills", lets just not report anything at all, we're all getting f*cking sick at this front office banging their heads against the wall and telling us everything is going A-Okay when we're likely going to be losing both Bo and Vlad and becoming a basement dwelling team for the next decade or so…
