Good to see Griff back, thanks for the link. The robo ump is polarising and I’m totally anti. Sure it’s sucks to see bad calls, but losing that much of the human element? No thanks. I’d rather see them get rid of the superimposed strike zone on tv.
Following up on the Lourdes/Teo moves you discussed above, it occurred to me that with the rule changes this year, MLB will likely see a significant increase in base running. Replacing those two with Varsho and Kiermaier will be a a major improvement on the base paths for the Jays.
I'm curious as to how much of a factor you think this was for Shapiro/Aikens in making these moves? It the long "run" it could end up being a significant means of creating runs.

This was awesome. You definitely had to.
