Well, apparently you can't question anything you're told, now that the FCC has managed to oust Kimmel. Very scary situation over there...

Yea, and further to this point about situational pitching, it seems as though the Jays (or Schneider?) are very big on having a LHP facing a pivotal (and, for some reason, not so pivotal) LHB, which is why we tend to see so many pitching changes. This irked me yesterday in particular, when a...

I believe that is also the over/under line for John Schneider pitching changes this post season...

15 homeruns against in only 62 innings for Hoffman; that is ugly! But his usage has also been pretty crazy. This was his 3rd appearance in 4 days, which was preceded by a 4 appearances in 5 days stretch. He needs regular rest, not a few days off in a row then back to the grind. Jesus.

Yea, Varland has the makeup but he's been scuffling alot. It looks like the Jays are doing some tweaking with his pitch selection, etc, so I wonder if that's causing some issues. Domiquez has been really good and I thought he was going to come in for the 9th last night, considering he only...

Yea, and Bieber is definitely more of a question mark too, considering how long he's been off for. Definitely worth making this deal, though. Potential ace for a young, non-elite prospect.

Ok, I'm going to try this....from this season..maybe Easton Cowan straight up for IR Aaron Ekblad?

What Carlton said. And I know this probably means next to nothing but I do like the idea of a right-handed RW; I think the rest of our wingers/centres (save Nylander and Roy) are lefties? Knies Matthews Konecny :love:

I mean....if the Leafs actually win the Cup this season, wouldn't that undoubtedly mean, in some way, shape or form, it WAS because of his disappearance?

I was a big fan of picking up Konecny before the Flyers signed him long term; is there a hint of chance he's available? Like, we gave them a 1st and a pretty good prospect for what appears to be a 4th line winger, they have to be willing to help us out a bit? :unsure:

I think there are alot of folks who are angry that Marner didn't sign and either blame him (anti-Marner), or the team (pro-Marner). Obviously the plan was to extend him, and it just didn't work out.

Oh, I understand people who wanted to see Marner traded years ago, before the NMC clause kicked in, bemoaning how this turned out, absolutely. They have carte blanche to criticize management's decision to keep the core 4 together. The ones who always wanted Marner re-signed; however, no rue for you!

I have to say, I don't really understand the hyperbole and the rehetoric from each of the "sides" (i.e. anti vs pro Marner) about this whole situation. Marner wasn't traded 2 years ago before his NMC kicked in because Shanahan/Management wanted to keep him long-term. Then, within the course of...

Running or ruining? Either way, same answer. ;)

I should say, the Vladdy from the last 2-3 games is the Vladdy we need to see much more consistently. Made a fantastic diving stop yesterday, drove the ball very hard (in the air!) RBI's, walks, very dangerous! He smoked a fastball the preceding game way out of the park, which is what he...
