Blue Jays STUN The MLB! (FULL Toronto Blue Jays Trade Deadline Breakdown)

[@randylevy]

Pearson giving up a HR and getting ejected in his first Cubs appearance might be the most Nate Pearson thing ever

[@KptKrunch9481]

I remember all the hype on this guy when the Jays broadcasters first started talking about him - iirc he was the next Roy Halliday - in his first appearance he couldn't throw a strike to save his life and if he did the hitters tore the cover off the ball - right then and there I said um, no, typical Toronto Hype machine in full swing (no pun intended) what took them so long to dump this guy?

[@EvanMaddick]

After the Deadline, I saw someone post online about our off season needs now: -Catcher -3rd Baseman -Outfielder -Designated Hitter -Starting Pitcher -4 Relief Pitchers I’d also add that we should, if we can trade Bo, which means Short Stop is a question as well. I look forward to when we can all start to discuss all these points. Keep up the great content guys 👍

[@eshep71]

@@EvanMaddick I'm confident that they will try to get Soto first...then plan accordingly. Same as the Ohtani sweepstakes. If they do happen to sign him, it's time to go all in like we've never seen and trade away everything they just acquired in order to solidify the lineup. Perhaps even another big signing or two..(Burnes, Bregman?). Hopefully they will spend in the right situation. If they can't get that second superstar with Vlad, then I think we see the same patchwork we saw last off-season and a rebuild becomes one step closer to reality. We are in a similar spot as NY last year (except judge was extended already, Vladdy isn't) and things are potentially not as bleak as they seem.

[@EvanMaddick]

@@eshep71 Hopefully someone has the sense to offer him that Jays extension, be it Atkins or A New GM

[@eshep71]

@@EvanMaddick despite what anyone says, Atkins is fine. Fans are too reactionary to realize they have a good thing going here. One losing season feels like everything to a fan who never followed the team before 2015. His victories far outweigh his success and if not for Vladdy being a dud the last 2.5 seasons, we'd be universally praising him...not just me. Vlad wants more than the Jays want to offer him. Probably 10mil more. It sucks that he's doing this well now because it's been 3 years since we've seen it and it's time to make a decision. Vlad can single handedly ruin this whole thing if he gets paid and doesn't perform. But losing him in any way will also be a blow.

[@Tango21C]

If they don’t sign or trade for actual stars in the off-season Vladdy will go to FA. There’s no reason for a young player of his caliber to sign an extension with the Jays if they fail to build a team around him. It’s the sad truth

[@EvanMaddick]

@@Tango21C You make a good point.

[@billinburlington5507]

Thanks for an excellent rundown. At 9:33 the BB Trade Values tweet typo confused me… realized Jays traded ( not acquired) LHP Kikuchi. Haven’t been to a Jays game in 10 years. Heard a lot about the changes at this deadline and see the rebuilding has only started. Lots of good moves, lots of work still to do.

[@Corbots80]

Now Im just hoping the Bo can show signs of life by the end of the season. So they can get something decent in return for him in the offseason

[@StephenHunts]

Here Here

[@EvanMaddick]

@@Corbots80 If he is really wanting out (as articles and insiders have been saying), then it’s in his best interest to comeback and do well too. So he can be traded to another team.

[@TwinCitiesOxygen]

I hope Vladdy doesn’t want out to does he?

[@BruceColvin-dr6vu]

Kirk is valuable as a backup catchup

[@lambo2655]

I don't know why Atkins has such a "hard on" for Seattle first it was Teo and now Garcia & Turner.

[@Dulcimerist]

It's the Mariners that like Blue Jays players. They also signed Ray, Thornton, and Saucedo.

[@lunar33icious]

Atkins literally did a Hail Mary on the team to try to keep his job & hope to restock the shelves in the minors. At least they can field a team that makes sense for how bad they're playing. Now the fans can't complain because you KNOW they're not going to pend up playing .500 ball at the end of the season. Might win 80 games overall.

[@SP.007]

14:53 - He'll be the best player we got back this trade deadline.

[@DanielSon69]

Agree, looks to have some speed on the bases too

[@Dulcimerist]

Atkins seems to be good at dismantling pieces of a team to replenish the farm system. He's definitely not good at building a team to compete for the World Series. It's time for Atkins to leave on a high note after making these trades.

[@StephenHunts]

Kirk as our only catcher next year is NOT GOOD!!!

[@drchef4127]

Varsho plays catcher too... So technically we have two

[@StephenHunts]

@drchef4127 true. But we need Varsho's defense in the outfield. Regardless, MAJOR CHANGES need to be made in th off-season to make this team competitive again (preferably without Atkins making those decisions 🙄🙄🙄). Rebuilds take about 3-5 years. So get ready Jays fans(we are in for a few UGLY seasons). Go Jays Go

[@eshep71]

This is how you trade scraps for a superstar. Just wait and see... This offseason, we are in a far better position to make an impactful trade or two. If we aren't rebuilding and are serious about competing, then most of these guys have to be traded this winter...

[@eshep71]

@@bobmowat7190 .. it's the same as a teenage girls diary. Complain, complain, complain. People don't realize that baseball is based on failure. If you can't take it, get out. Lol I fear you're right. It's not as appealing at the end of the contention window as it was 3-4 years ago.

[@jeffbell9391]

@eshep71 This " window " thing was .made up by cheap owners .since 95, when did Yankees window open or closed?

[@jeffbell9391]

@eshep71 I agree you don't want to finish in the middle 15-20 like they did from 95-14 seasons . For what they gave up, Ross gets an A in these trades. The next G.M. James Click of Houston. Vice president Basball strategy for the jays.

[@eshep71]

@@jeffbell9391 yeah, Click would be gone already if he didn't think he was next in line. Makes me wonder if he has influence with that Houston trade

[@eshep71]

@@jeffbell9391 it's more of an opportunity thing I think. Windows apply to teams like us when we have a star player to build around . Vladdy Now, Bautista in 15. Yankees always had a 'window' because they are a destination with payroll

[@brianroach6306]

I am shocked they did not draft a catcher from college in the top 3 rounds

[@jackuzzi5251]

So it's going to tough to see Bichette back in the line-up. He has become a team spirit killer.

[@walter6574]

There is a reason why Bichette is still with the Jays. His stats are not as bad as most think they are.

[@RayToutuver]

Bichette not same as daddy - about time people realized

[@Lilshrek2424]

[@jeffbell9391]

And who works for the jays? James Click former Astros and in the running for the jays if or when Ross is let go as GM

[@Slo_Moses]

Now they need to sign a couple power hitters, another starter and refuel the bullpen.

[@johnplatford3625]

Hey guys its B- grade in my opinion. Jays should have sold Chad Green. His value this trade deadline was astronomical.

[@Corbots80]

If they had an offer worth it. I'm sure they would have.

[@jeffbell9391]

​@Corbots80 I I agree

[@Dulcimerist]

Tommy John, additional injury this season, still owed $15M. Green would've been traded if the Jays had received a good offer, but they didn't receive one.

[@mikakinos4546]

Wish the jays would move Bo. Ya he can hit but the rest doesn’t make up for it

[@jeffbell9391]

Could I get the lottery numbers from you. Or is it going to rain three weeks from today.

[@thebiologicalrealist]

I appreciate that there's plenty of criticism to be put at Atkin's door. But is it his fault that Swansen, Bo and Springer have been crap most of the season? That Romano, Manoah, and Tiedemann were injured most of the season? Or that his top hitting prospect is either a cheater or an idiot? Things that were totally beyond Ross' control played a huge role in how disappointing the season turned out to be.

[@mckessa17]

Atkins stinks they should fire him.

[@paulkelly4202]

Time will tell . I am not believing all of these guys are game changers. A lot of maybes in this video. In the off season we still need a Few starters, Short stop { Bichette will go}, catcher, mid reliever and now we need another closer. I cannot bet the farm on Romano,

[@scubadaddy3217]

Loperfido was known as a strikeout machine in the minors and in 106 AB he struck out 43 times for the Astros and he's 25. Wagner is 26, he's a slap hitting 3rd baseman with little power and is a negative fielder. Bloss was an emergency call up for the Astros and is still really young. Projection for both Wagner and Loperfido is "cup of coffee"/ September call ups as a ceiling. The Astros have one of the worst Minor League systems in baseball, so a #18 prospect for Houston is likely a #30+ guy for other teams.

[@Slo_Moses]

They traded a #4 starter who stunk. Don't get your panties in a bunch

[@douglasmcintyre3297]

'Bout time Atkins unloaded th rather overweight-looking, 'aging-warrior' late inning reliever Yimmy Garcia. The team wasn't winning with him (not his fault) so why not save some $$$ and open up several million $$$ in payroll space by moving him to a contender. All for a couple of quality young players who can play defense and haven't forgotten or been coached out of hitting for average, stealin bases and driving in runs?

[@miscoucoffee]

Get ready for a lot of base stealing in the next few years for Jays. They’re going for speed and youth. 🏃

[@stupidas9466]

Well, your comment didn't age well with them trading Cam Eden for cash. Eden was the best, and really only top level base stealer they had in the organization.

[@RabbiRan]

These comments are everything that is wrong with blue jays fans. Keep babying the team and arguing with people that are willing to have a negative (realistic) opinion about the future of this club. We have been in this mode for nearly 10 years. It is definitely about time to start complaining about the handling of this organization. Shatkins ruined cleveland, now they’ve ruined toronto. Congratulations!

[@joe_quiroz]

Adam you’re butchering the poor guys name.. it’s s pronounced Jon-a-ton .. not YO-NA-TON .. it even says so on his stat profile on that site you’re referencing 😂😂😂

[@davemartin5735]

I see by the comments the Soto fantasy rumors are starting. The Jays could make offers but have an almost 0% chance of getting Soto. The reason is that the Jays would be a significant downgrade for Soto who could go to any team he wants. The Jays are still struggling to find themselves. They are not a competitive team and wont be for at least a couple of years. Why on earth would Soto think that would be a great landing spot? Dude has probably never heard of TBJs they are so underwhelming. If Soto was offered a Billion dollars i'm sure he still wouldn't go to TO. It just doesn't make sense.

[@mitchbluejays963]

So where are all the people saying “fire the front office now” ???? The players have been shit not the guys who gave them playing time.

[@SnailGameHereToFkU]

I totally disagree with you guys take, the Jays suck and you guys supporting the Management of the team is pathetic.
