Oh okay, I get it!!! lol.

I won't be able to post like you do, and I do one pitch at a time. I will try and post some stuff upcoming, I am like a quarter of the way into the season.

I Did sign Vladdy through 2033 for about 27.6 million a year. When I setup the league I lowered all those salary for top players, middle of the road like 10 different types of player down about 20% when setting it up.

But I am still trying to trade him, I have lowered the trade settings to the middle and it is beyond ridiculous best I can get in prospect package is 3 prospects and best is 150th prospect. Or if estalbished players a bunch of overaged players with outrageous contracts. I have lowered it to lowest setting and it does not get much better. I am always friustrated by the trades in this game, but at this point, very frustrated they are not better and more realistic. I realize the market would be limited to 8 to 10 teams, but come on, 150th prospect.

Anyways yes 2025 will be interesting in real life.

In groups I was in, ppl posting Jays going to be first,maybe second and I kept posting no, they will be fighting to not finish 5th, I found the previous couple of seasons everything went so right for them, that not be so lucky anymore. I did not think bo would have such a bad year. But I do not believe in management, they are a joke and I like John, but I feel they need a more experienced manager now and someone with no connections to some of the guys.

I think they will miss the playoffs again.But be a little better than last year.

I was season ticket holder since early 80s and went to a lot of games before than. When first set of reno's happened, my season tickets were almost 4 times as much, and not in same area as before. I was pissed and only went to 20 games, and bought not one thing Blue Jays, and in 2024 I went to one series, bought nothing of Jays things. I wanted city connect jerseys, they sucked ass!!! I bought a couple other teams instead lol. This year I have bought no tickets.

If they don't make playoffs, Berrios for sure opts out.

I think you will need to trade anyone of any value where you can get younger and get some prospects for 2026, and then start signing some guys in 2027, and hopefully with 2026 draft you have 2 or 3 guys come up and a couple guys you traded for, all up by 2029 kind of thing.But for sure you will, I just think longer than 2027 it will take.

I will continue on my merry way, I got rid of so many. I have most of the veterns on trading block. Maybe I get better action at trade deadline. I am back to 500 currently. I will trade anyone for prospects, but have to be half decent.
