Jays Stymied by Angels in Series Finale

Yeah, I mean, you know, Jesus Sanchez is a guy that Nick Ashbourne had mentioned to me yesterday.

Blue Jays Talk
Jays Stymied by Angels in Series Finale

You know, when roster crunch time comes, you know, as much as we talk about David Schneider and Lenin Sosa, and we've kind of already talked about the Pignango move with Barger.

Blue Jays Talk
Jays Stymied by Angels in Series Finale

We do actually have, to Justin's point, some news on Springer and Barger.

Jays Stymied by Angels in Series Finale

John Schneider was asked about it today, so we'll play that in a sec here.

Blue Jays Talk
Jays Stymied by Angels in Series Finale

But, I mean, yeah, I don't think, at the very least...

Blue Jays Talk
Jays Stymied by Angels in Series Finale

I think Justin is right that he won't get DFA'd, probably, likely because asset management, he's making a fair bit of money as well, right?

Blue Jays Talk
Jays Stymied by Angels in Series Finale

I suppose it's possible he could get claimed, but if he doesn't, then the Blue Jays are just DFAing him to free up a spot, because they're still going to be on the hook for all that money.

Blue Jays Talk
Jays Stymied by Angels in Series Finale

So, I think for that reason, probably won't get DFA'd, but I will say, I don't think it's out of the realm of possibility, given his lack of production, right?

Blue Jays Talk
Jays Stymied by Angels in Series Finale

Because if you're 18 and 22, and you're really scratching and clawing for every win and every run, and

Blue Jays Talk
Jays Stymied by Angels in Series Finale

you know you're kind of I've said this before I've used the term redlining you're starting pitching in your in your bullpen and all these injuries all these things are happening at the same time even for what I do believe is still a good team I mean you you kind of don't have the luxury of just like waiting for someone to figure it out like you kind of do for a Vladimir Guerrero Jr because he's going to be here for the next 14 years but I don't know if you have that luxury with guys like you know Lenin Sosa and Jesus Sanchez and David Schneider for example

Blue Jays Talk
Jays Stymied by Angels in Series Finale

Yeah, that running grab when he just kind of caught it at his knees with the snow cone catch in his glove.

Blue Jays Talk
Jays Stymied by Angels in Series Finale

I thought, oh, baby, that's an adventure.

Blue Jays Talk
Jays Stymied by Angels in Series Finale

So you mentioned Springer and Barger, and so did Justin.
