Can we at least agree roku sasaki sucks?


by lozen m

I thought I read his salary is $58,000

That's exactly why I said give him an extension and ask him for a bumgarner. And yeah it's because he was on the team for about 2 weeks.

It isn't literally nothing. Just very close to nothing. I would very surprised if it changed the Blue Jays' winning percentage by more than half a percent, and not shocked if it changed it by less than a tenth of a percent.

Yeah the only chance is that the fielder grabs the ball, and somehow completely messes up the throw in. Falls over or the ball slips or something. There is maybe a 0.5 percent chance Badger somehow ends up on 3rd.

Dodgers c. -135 tomorrow. Come on Toronto don't let everyone down.

Bummed out as they are letting the thread down. :(

Hard to throw him under the bus when he's a big reason they're even there and even had a chance in this game. He's been a beast all post season. He'll be a big part of their chances in game 7.

Sure. No reason to blame him for anything other than the specific baserunning blunder. The only reason he was on second base was because he hit an absolute laser in the gap two minutes before the double play.

They are giving me a reason to feel young and alive again.


I can't believe they are giving better than 100-1 odds on several players to win the WS MVP. All it takes is one big swing late in the game to win the award.


I have to assume by design the only other pitchers who throw for either team will be the savage for the jays and Yamamoto/glasnow for the Doyers

If for any reason anyone else throws a pitch something has gone horribly wrong

Fair enough, I have in my head like 3-4%. I'm likely wrong.

No major league player has a salary of $58,000. League minimum is $700K

by SABR42 m

The MLB minimum is $760K, but he's been in the majors for less than a month.

This article says $57,000

Everyone is pitching this game. I'd easily take the over on 10 pitchers being used tonight. Apparently I don't know how to internet because a few Google searches on what the odds are on pitchers used tonight yielded nothing useful.


by lozen m

Did you not read your own article?

It says MLB minimum is $760,000.

That's for the entire season. That works out to roughly $4,000 per day. So if you're in the majors for 2 weeks you get paid that rate for 2 weeks.


If you want some practice at being disappointed, hour of Leafs before baseball.


by lozen m

It's prorated. He was only in the big leagues for a short period. That isn't his annual salary.

See I told ya.


No way Ohtani can pitch a good game and hit a homer. No way.


And for instance he can't pitch a perfect game here.


JAYS


For DK fantasy he does not count as a pitcher, only his hitting scores. With Gramps starting I had a team with O as captain and Glasnow, but wound up with two 5-1 Dodgers with Barger, all hitters. Need ‘em to bat around on the old fart.


All's well that ends well, I guess, but Max was terrible that inning. After he gave up the hit to Ohtani, he hung a breaking ball horribly to Will Smith, and then somehow got Freddie out on a center cut fastball. He won't make it four innings unless his location improves.


he's got wim bro. the anti-kershaw


Tim Hudson opened the Madbum game

Ain’t nobody out here giving a **** about scherzer with the savage in tow


um


Again wtf guys!!!


vintage jays bail out a shaky ohtani in the 1st
