Throw Long Bannatyne

Quote from: Blue In BC on December 23, 2025, 05:42:16 PMI saw that. He was most often listed at WIL along with Hladik but IIRC both lined up at multiple spots depending on injury situations.

All this doesn't quite answer the question about Awe. He's played WIL in the past. I'm not sure if Sankey is only a MLB type. Hladik is currently a potential free agent.

So who plays where with the addition of Sankey is a TBD along with cumulative SMS costs at the position.

Sankey is an old school MLB, great against the run but not against the pass, Awe is more versatile, if they played them both it would be pretty scary.  Hladik is the prize, I'd be surprised if BC let him walk away without an attempt to re-sign him.

Sankey at MLB, Awe at WIL is a Team 100 level pairing...  although not as clean.
Unabashed positron.  Blue koolaid in my fridge.  I wear my blue sunglasses at night.  Homer, d'oh.

Looking at just the DTs, we have had league-top guys pass through here.  Nevis, Stove, Sayles, Walker.  Even Poop was pretty darn stout... until he didn't FIFO.

We haven't had a monster DT since Sayles or Walker.
Never go full Johnston!

Depth would great but getting everyone on the field or playing time plus SMS issue. It was the reason why it was not a good idea for the Bombers to consider Sankey.

Maybe Hladik won't re-sign and negotiations were not going well? He could be another Canadian looking for $200K+ as a starter.
One game at a time.
