Darvin adams getting healthy, who comes out?
wbbfan replied to wbbfan's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
Yeah and with a play off spot clinched no need to rush him back. idk about politics but they have made some head scratching decisions with the roster so who knows. -
http://www.bluebombers.com/2016/10/24/219774 Point 3 on the list says the bombers expect darvin adams back at practice this week. So the question is where and how does he fit in? He was playing his best ball when hurt, certainly draws into the line up. Would love to go all IMP at wr, but I dont think we will start the extra nuck. Dressler is a lock, I think gurley gets more time to find his fit in the system, mcduffie is a DI and half of our return combo I dont see us having fogg start at DB and return kicks and punts so I think he stays in too. Denmark, adams, and smith for the final 2 imp spots with mcduffie the back up. The way hes played this year id sit smith. Hes young and well worth having around next year, but both denmark and adams have been much better. gurley dressler adams denmark and smith with mcduffie as the back up/returner/di. Man that would be nice though. Weve gone from a team that struggled to put together a wr core at points this year to having an embarrassment of riches.

It would be. Even getting a real lead off hitter and moving JB to DH would help a bunch. The whole staff was. Would be good to bring in some veteran arms to compete in camp and push guys. And provide insurance incase we have some set backs.
-
Also the jays are reportedly picking up the option of joe biagini. Who was not as good post all star as pre but was still one of the few strong consistent arms out of the the pen. and a great pick up over all.

100% if hes back next year he needs to be the DH full time. EE as the full time at first base. Maybe dalton pompey takes the next step to be an every day out fielder. Other wise pillar and saunders then get another OFer. Really dont want melvin upton back unless its at 4th OFer money. Which wont happen. IIrc hes owed some stupid amount of money. A good lead off hitter who fills an out field spot would be great. I dont worry about joey bats or bating average in general. But his slash was down across the board. 12/13/16 years when he was banged up his performance dipped a ton. The 10/11/14/15 years bautista is worth every penny and worth riding into the dirt. But betting on that production out of him at his age and injury record, with the limited bucks the jays have had to work with is a dangerous bet. If rogers is gonna loose the purse strings then why not.

I wouldnt say thatd be a massive failure. Ending up as the cross over team is a good spot to be in. Cross over or home play off game is a great spot either way. Plus the turn around from previous years and the first 1/3 of the season really we are playing with house money at this point.
-
I actually think thatll happen as well. But I think wally rests a couple guys in the last game.
-
Yeah. I could see EE going to FA and taking the best offer. If you wanna jump teams for a legit chance at winning it all you dont stay in the ALE. Too many strong teams. One cold streak and you go from a pennant to the wild card game or contending for a pennant to golfing come play offs. EE and JB have given a ton to the franchise. If joey bats gets a stupid amount of money to go finish his career else where im not gonna be sad to see him go. If hes back im going to be holding my breath we dont have too much tied up in him being healthy and productive this coming year. EE it would hurt to see walk for a better chance to win. Seeing him in the ale would be awful. Got a ton of love for both these guys though and if they get more money then we are willing to offer then good for em.
-
News says both EE and bautista are being tendered by the jays. I hope they keep saunders. Im a little surprised they are tendering bautista. I think thatll be the most money he gets.

Not sure how much of a following the nba/raptors have around here. Thought id throw out a thread for it though. Just saw on the score that jared sullinger the raps off season signe is out 2-3 monthes with recovery from the foot surgery he just under went. Really sucks, he would have fit with the raptors soo well. And the east is looking much improved this year. Looks like patpat will get the starts for the time being. Rookie pascal siakam seemed to get the most minutes of the young bigs. He has a similar package to biyombo with out as much length. Poeltl could should see a bump in minutes from this too.

Winnipeg Blue Bombers Fans Choice Awards
wbbfan replied to Noeller's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
the penalties on td returns are whats killing him. I dont remember any of them being pivotal in the return either. MOP/MOSTer medlock. With out him we arent even .500 imop. MODP Mo. The D has been turn over monsters. Mo has led the way, but hes also had clutch tackles, and been very good between turn overs for 6. MOC harris. Great blocker, great pass catcher, great runner. Despite getting far to few touches in several games, being forgotten about in the pass game for many weeks in the middle of the season, and having a brutal OL early in the year. MOL, bond. Hes been the best and key to our OLs turn around. MOR. Its soo hard to choose between the two. But im going with fogg including the amazing returns and tons of turn overs. -
montreal plays calgary, and hamilton. TO bandwagonmen plays edmonton dirty old regina plays bc twice. Montreal vs calgary LOL. Hamilton is in the heat for first in the east while the blackriders gades redblacks play us. I think montreal loses out gets the top pick which then goes to BC. Hamilton wins the east. No way the wally buono coached BC sucks lose 2 to dirty old regina. They might rest vets in the last game, so the crieders might win 1 game. I dont think Edm takes it easy on the tigernaughts. And even if they did half the CIS teams might beat these bandwagonmen. Race for the bottom finishes 1. messtreal 2. arblows 3. crieders. Jones trades a late season spark for a 2 spot drop in the draft, then realizes that 2 western teams that finished well ahead of them in the standings have the picks before them. And had stellar picks the previous year. And that calgary is still a thing. So they begin building again hoping for the division to capsize, or the cross over.

would love to see Ricky ray torch the stumps. Doubt it happens though.

cant say, injuries are kept soo close to the vest with this regime. When ever the media asks about a player they get a vague game to game type answer. he was injured in the pre season. With a community owned team that has a huge debt to the tax payers you better believe people worry about wasted money. Especially with the poor draw the bombers have had this year.

pro sports isnt fair.

Id be surprised if upton is here next year.

Miller starting contract extension talks with Walters O'Shea
wbbfan replied to Jpan85's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
4 years for a HC that was on the hot seat for a good portion of this season is too much. Especially in the cfl. Weve had too many years in the past paying 2+ coaching staffs worth of guys. Especially with our ticket sales this year. 4 or 5 for walters is good imop, hes done a fantastic job finding talent via all means. Mos Id say 2 years plus a team option would be ideal. -
him and keeping. A ton of wasted money right there.

Gonna be a good race to finish the season. I hope we either cross over or host the semi.
