Quote from: theaardvark on April 27, 2026, 07:40:25 PMUDFA deals are spec at best, unless there is actual money included. Any idea if any of the top guys got money in their UDFA deals?

Quote from: JockitchwithRich on April 27, 2026, 01:32:32 PMJays need to shut down the Red Sox, who now replaced their Mgr., and have won two straight. Another series win would most definitely help the Jays keep their heads high
As a team, the Jays have a low whiff rate but Okamoto is an awful exception to that

Ridley Grieg from Ottawa.
Good feisty playmaker who is quite decent at the dot, finishing around the net, pushing the play and distributing
Quote from: Blue In BC on April 27, 2026, 07:26:29 PMThe in season spending is a balancing act, no doubt. However the amount spent is known after the last game. It's what left is a little easier to evaluate once you get into December. If for example they wanted to give Kramdi or Lawson a $50K signing bonus but only had $32K left, then it's an easy decision to over spend $18K.
Obviously we didn't over spend the SMS but the same example could be used for Ottawa that did.
Quote from: Tecno on April 27, 2026, 01:28:42 AMYa, this may be the worst season start in a while for OL continuity. The C is an especially touchy position to toy with. Let's hope we pick our C wisely in TC and ride with him the whole season, and it turns out to be the correct choice.
At least if we go 3 IMP there's a good chance the 3rd is Vant or Rand, who both have extensive experience and tons of real game reps in our system.
I hope that if we actually end up with 2 or 3 totally new guys on the line that the hoped-for massive talent improvement will overcome the lack of week 1 gel.
