Skill wise RAdickey is better than Sanchez
But the route of going with him means that we need to win now meaning this fucking year
He already said he wants to go test himself in the FA, and he'll get roughly the same amount of money that Sanchez is getting
Having Dickey over Sanchez puts a timer above the Jays heads meanwhile with Sanchez or Greinke you have opportunities next year, or the year after
Turning 39 is MUCH MUCH more different than turning 29 or 30

Way too big of a gamble


why are you acting as if greinke and sanchez are still available

Fuck you if you trade away d'Arnaud...
We spend like 5-7 years building up pieces and prospect only to give every single one of them away for overrated, overpaid, overpriced players bringing no youth to the team or any future contention
They're trying to win now but fuck they could have done that by spending money on players during FA and keep our prospect to replace our current players and build a stronger core


I agree with this to an extent. If we are going to blow D'arnoud and Noah I'd rather go after someone other than Dickey. Although his 5MM salary is clearly the biggest attraction for the Jays,.

The addition of Syndergaard makes this a fairly lopsided trade in NY's favor.

I'd rather have them try and pursue Garza again than go for this shit...

I expected the Jays to get more than just Thole when they included Snydergaard, but at least they finally got rid of Buck's ugly contract. I'll hold my judgement until the two unknown prospects are named.

They said the prospects to be named aren't very significant
I think this is like the one ballz deal AA will make unless the extension with Dickey is some ridiculous shit in favor for us
