Ponce apparently done for the season: https://www.sportsnet.ca/mlb/article/ponce-plans-to-be-blue-jays-biggest-cheerleader-after-season-ending-surgery/

No Chayka please. He definitely came across as a snake oil salesman and like you say, didn't have any success in Phoenix. I'm intrigued by Moldaver. Essentially he's a salesman and I think that's a big part of the GM job, and I think he'd only come as GM.

As long as the moves the GM wants to make fit under the budget (which should be quite large) they should have freedom and flexibility. The President should step in if the GM starts making moves that are self-serving and not in the best interest of the long term feasibility of the club. Pelley...

If there is a de facto better name available I have yet to hear it. I still think the Leafs should be trying to poach Tulsky.

My guess would be Gillis President, Sundin Senior VP, Cassidy (head coach) as the 3 hires. Pridham named GM.

Berube is a bad fit. He should be let go today. (If he catches on with another team Leafs don't have to pay a portion of his contract, perhaps all of it). New GM should come in a select the new coach.

I'm starting to come around to Mike Gillis but I think I'd prefer him as President with another GM below him. If Carolina gets bounce I want the Leafs to poach Eric Tulsky as President and GM. Carolina is known for being "frugal" with their front office. I'm assume the Leafs could outspend...

Brandon Pridham and Ryan Hardy handled the exit interviews.

Berube should be released. It was obvious to anyone watching the games he could not (or did not) get this team to play the way he wanted them to play. This team played disjointed for the entire season. Treliving didn't give him the players to win but Berube didn't get much out of the players he...

I don't think you can compare it. The Jays bring in way more revenue than the Leafs (or at least they are right now). But yeah, The Leafs should have fired the coach if it was the pertinent move. Cost should not have been in the equation.

Rantanen's first season was only 9 games so it didn't burn a year of his contract. Rantanen's RFA year he had put up 209 pts. Rantanen also made the All-Star team in his RFA year, Marner did not. Rantanen is also 6'4" - 220 lbs. It was bad management by the Leafs not the respective players...

Maybe this AI GM thing ain't that bad...

Just goes to show how 'wrong' AI is all the time, thinking it would be immune to the "1967 curse". Laughable!

Haha. First thing I texted my friends last night. Start bringing him in late in games and let him get his bat going. He’s a black hole right and having a black hole in your leadoff spot, it’s terrible.

😃

Regardless how we feel, as fans on this website, Tie Domi seems to be friends with everyone, everyone seems to love him. Maybe he should be considered for part of the Leafs management team? Not sure what capacity or role but one thing has struck me recently, as a GM, you can identify all the...

Yeah, all the cool kids are on LinkedIn nowadays.

Am I catching strays??? 😅😂

I want Verhoeff so bad. I figure he could come in immediately and play next year.

6 of the Jays 9 starters are currently hurt. Can't remember the last time I saw that.
