he played 73 games.... but he's been flipped to the wing in calgary so maybe that is why he is having more succes
- Dozzer


Almost certainly. His footspeed is less exposed and he has less defensive responsibility playing on the wing.

Not sure why everyone hates Kadri all of a sudden. He is locked in long-term at an affordable price. better get used to it.

He also played with Komarov and Grabner most of the year. That doesn't help point totals much

Joey batstitsta hits into 3 double plays today

Go Jays!

- senstroll

Their offense will pick it up eventually. It's fun pretending I'm worried until it does though.

They've had good pitching but poor hitting so far. That'll reverse by the end of the year.

Playing with Wayne Komarov helped pad his stats.

The ridiculous celebration after winning the AL East, then the whole AA, Shapiro fiasco, dumb Bautista contract *demands*, has really made me dislike the whole organization.

It sucks because I want to cheer for them, but I also kind of enjoy watching them fail so far.

You can't argue with that contract. It was a great signing.

Tavares at 5.5 is a "steal." Kadri at 4.5 is a solid deal.

when Kadri starts playing with some of the quality prospects coming up - he will get 55-60.

when tavares signed it was less ridiculous since the cap was way lower. cant really compare new contracts to old ones.

I also agree with this.

I wouldn't even mind keeping Komarov or Soshnikov on that line. But make sure the other winger can make a play or bury the biscuit.

No he will just refer to playing for a discount, the way Bautista did.

As if neither of them, or their agents understood at all what the pros and cons were to the deals they signed.
