00:00Now, the Toronto Blue Jays, they try to sign everybody and they only end up with few.
00:04It just seems to be the way that it went.
00:05They did end up landing a big fish, so to speak.
00:08Finally, they got somebody to sign their George Anthony Santander goes from Baltimore to Toronto.
00:14The Orioles are like, ah, we'll just plug somebody else in and he'll hit 30 home runs.
00:18But it feels like George that Santander was definitely like not the best fit for the Blue
00:24Jays.
00:25Like, really?
00:26Like in the end, I don't know that it would have made that much of a difference, but they
00:27had to sign somebody.
00:29They just kept striking out on all these players.
00:32Guerrero did not get signed, so he's playing for a contract.
00:34Usually that goes well, but of this lineup and Guerrero will be the monster in it.
00:40The key name here, without a doubt, hold your nose.
00:44If you look at Bo Bichette's numbers from last year, I don't know what happened to this
00:48guy last season.
00:50You talk about arguably the most dynamic up and coming shortstop in all of major league
00:55baseball to fall, not off the cliff, but off something that I can't even say here
01:01on the air.
01:02What, George, happened to this guy last year, man?
01:04Like I gotta believe maybe he's not what he was two years ago, but there's gotta be a
01:09big bounce back from him this season.
01:12I'd agree.
01:13He's someone I sort of have highlighted on my cheat sheets there that don't forget about
01:17him.
01:18I don't want, I'm not grabbing him early.
01:19I'm hoping he drops late.
01:20Now shortstop is somewhat deep, by the way, in fantasy drafts.
01:23You can get him pretty late in drafts.
01:25So if you want to take a shot there, but yeah, they have some decisions to make here.
01:30I mean, I kind of like that.
01:31I like the Blue Jays every year.
01:33I mean, I love the pitching staff, Gossman, Schurz, Bassett, Berrios, Francis, I think
01:37it's a good staff.
01:38You know, the bullpen, okay, it needs a little work there, but I think they can keep them
01:42in games here.
01:43But Greg, if they're not in contention, which is really hard not to be by the trade deadline
01:48nowadays, but Guerrero would have to be traded, right?
01:52He wanted 450.
01:53He went down to 420.
01:54They wouldn't even talk to him about it.
01:56He's going to get that in the open market.
01:57So they're going to have to trade him.
01:58Maybe they got to trade Bassett too, depending on what kind of year he's having here.
02:01This is a weird year for the Blue Jays.
02:03They don't play well.
02:04These guys have to be moved at the deadline, but we're going to get nothing for them here.
02:07So we'll see how this works.
02:09On paper, this looks like a decent team, right?
02:11It looks like a decent squad here.
02:13So I'm very curious to see what's going to happen here.
02:15Springer's going to do some lead off, Guerrero's going to hit, Santander, his defense is not
02:21good by the way.
02:22Good luck.
02:23But hey, they brought the fencers in too.
02:24So there's not much field to play there.
02:26Yeah, they don't care.
02:27Yeah.
02:28Yeah.
02:29And also off the bench, the sensation named Davis Schneider, if you remember him from
02:32last year, could be back in some playing time, depending on how things work out with some
02:36of their other players.
02:38Starting pitching is concerned to top two guys, Solid, Gossman, of course, Jose Barrios,
02:45of course.
02:46Then it's Chris Bassett.
02:48Max Scherzer refuses to retire.
02:49So he's back again, this time with the Blue Jays.
02:53And then Bowden Francis is one of their nice young pitchers.
02:56They think that could help them a lot this season.
02:58But I mean, I don't know.
03:01I mean, I guess a late round pick on Scherzer would do.
03:03I mean, he's a Hall of Famer, another guy that is.
03:05But Gossman and Barrios for me.
03:08And I'll stop there.
03:09I mean, Bowden Francis, get him late, he almost threw a couple of no-hitters last year.
03:15But once again, it's another band box you're pitching in there.
03:17That's what makes it so tough, I don't think anybody in Toronto.
03:19I want nothing to do with Scherzer.
