Everything just fell perfectly into place…

1. Man don’t you get tired of regurgitating ish on X. This is insufferable

2. I honestly don't believe the Jays need any other players at this point . Later on they can always make a trade if needed and they have a lot of talent that is tradeable without having to give up any frontline players .

3. Still is lining up?!? How's losing Bo and Tucker?! That lined up for you?!? Toronto is a mess.

4. He hit .909 ops in Yankee stadium and below league averages in the rest of the league. He only hits well in the smaller parks, he would be a disaster on the Jays in Rogers Center.

5. I don't know why i keep coming back, this like passing an accident you don't want to look but you have too…

6. Nope keep what you have . Get a pitcher to close games. Like we had in Tom Henke

7. Best Plan B 😂
   IMO jays need a outfielder especially since Springer and Varsho are off the books after this season. Bellinger can also play first which can give them plenty options on defence

8. Come on Nick your so gullible when it comes to Atkins wake up please you know we are not getting him

9. Jays already have an outfielder that hit 44 home runs 2 years ago.

10. They wont get Bellinger. He may not be back with the Yankees but the Jays are not going to overpay for him.

11. Of course it all fell into place 🙄

12. Loporfido is a much better option than Bellinger!!! Please nooooooo!!!

13. Fuck Cody Bellinger, would be a massive mistake and overpay , save money for the trade deadline go after quann and extend him

14. Jays owned him in the playoffs the idea is to get better.

15. Can Okomota play left field? If so, here is an idea, sign, 3B Eugenio Suárez. Not really a prototypical Jays player, verrrrry swing & miss, but he could anchor the 5-6 spot in the line up. This only works if Kazuma Okamoto can be converted to left field, or possibly, Suarez can play 2nd base? This could be a deadly line up if this works out. Thinking outside the box…

16. The focus should have been Bo – it wasn't – Jays miss-out BIG. You're not beating the Dodgers with offense.
    Right now the focus should be pitching-pitching-pitching, and more pitching. The starting depth is deepest I have seen since the WS years, concentrate on Tieds becoming healthy (DON'T turn him into a pen guy) – go get your pen as stout as your starting staff. You have money (if needed) trade for guys with price tags (although we all know with Shatkins he is willing to overpay with prospect getting awful ROV) but get it done. NOT Varland types you have a vision for in the future, go get guys that get it done today, they don't have to be big ticket guys, but guys who win. This also means down in Buffalo, pump up the pitching staff, get it stout, make the competition heavy – you're going to need the depth in July, August, September and going into playoffs. You want to beat the Dodgers then you must out Defensive them and it begins with pitching. See where things are at in the season, and if you need a bat, trade for one. There's plenty of offensive to get the team through the first months and take it from there – usually an "unusual" steps up and becomes a welcomed stick.

17. Are we believing Scott boras now? Did I miss a meeting? Hes going back to yanks. Book it

18. Stop it your getting fans all fired up again

19. We are fine as currently constructed. No need to go crazy on Bellinger

    The trade market is where we need to focus now.

    We could use another high leverage RP

20. OK, but we need a centerfield option just in case after next year doesn’t go properly

21. Go knocking on Detroit’s door for the side on board winner

22. Run away from Bellinger. It won’t age well and we already have the Santander contract to deal with. Barger needs to play daily and should not be a platoon.

23. This guy has terrible takes

24. Trade any or all of Lukes, Schneider, Santander, Loperfido, Straw, Berrios, Francis and a few prospects for Tatis and Miller. Pipe dream, but it’s better than Tucker and Diaz would’ve been by far. I think the Jays could provide a package that could get them both. Otherwise stay pat for now.

25. This feels like deja-vu 😂😂😂

26. I'm a Blue Jays fan and a Bo Bichette fan… Adding Cody Bellinger will be an advantage to the Jays.

27. All this focus on Tucker, Bo, Bellinger without a solid closer is very short-sighted. Looks what happened in the WS last year. Jays can't be awesome without a reliable closer.

28. I would sign belly over tucker

29. Jays should give Belli 6 years .. the AAA free agents are going to get ridiculous money .. so grab the A free agents and lock them up.
    Jays need a quality lefty bat in the 2hole that also offers great defence.
    Remember it was Varsho who grounded out with IKF on 3rd.
    Jays lefty bats let them down in the World Series.

30. We got egg on our face with the Tucker thing and LA as that is ridiculous. He just took a bag.

    Bo was pissed not getting respect and, rightfully so, moved on.

    That's Mets deal was a revenge f*uck from Cohen.

    If we have a chance to get Bellinger for 6-7 years for $215M, it will add a bat to this potent lineup and takes him away from the Yanks.

    That is my take…

31. Why not plunk free agent Austin Hays into a platoon with Nathan Lukes in left and play Santander at DH and first base until the deadline.

32. Imagine the dodgers sign him hahaha

33. Austin Hays. Hays can crush left-handed pitching (.949 ops in ‘25) and would be a good platoon partner.

34. If we can do a 3 year 100 or 7 year 200m I’d do it

35. Give Bellinger 1yr $40M with a team option on year 2 for $35M

    Maintain flexibility for next years FA (Skubal)

36. More rumors that will lead nowhere.

37. Bro, you are batting well below the Mendoza line on all your rumors 😂

38. We need another bat and closer. Jays need to sign Bell to keep up with Dodgers

39. The Toronto Blue Jays should be known as the call center that free agents contact to get better offers from other teams

40. "Everything is lining up perfectly for the Jays" He says for the 1 millionth time this offseason. None of it happened but I guess if you say it enough times you will be right eventually
