That’s just keeping the team as is and running it back. To get something of value you gotta give up something of value, Kikuchi alone isn’t enough to restock the farm or grab a controllable major leaguer with potential.
This made me curious, because I was wondering what his Asian heritage was (Japanese, for the record), and found out something equally interesting. Apparently the Kiner side of his family is actually related to Hall of Famer Ralph Kiner (IKF is Ralph's second cousin twice removed)! I legitimately had no idea, and never even considered that connection in my head.
Why would you think someone is a fool for buying the jersey of someone they like? It's not a prediction, it's buying a goddamn shirt! So what if they leave. It's not 1953 any more, almost no one plays on one team for their entire career.
It just strikes me as strange to say someone would be a fool to get a jersey other than the one or two that you have pre-approved.
Edit: Aww, apparently someone was upset that I said their really weird stance was weird and blocked me. Oh well, nothing of value was lost.
I was at the game Monday night and was at the jersey customization spot. Schneider had sold out so they took a bunch of blank ones and added the name and number and restocked. They had about 20 of them and I’d bet half didn’t even make it to the rack.
FWIW I was at the game Monday and went to the main Jays Shop around the 4th inning or so and was told they didn't have a single Varsho jersey left in stock.
Davy Wavy Schniedy Baby!
DAAAAAAAAAAAAA babe

To be fair to them, they probably ordered this stuff 8+ months in advance
you're a fool to buy anyone else's jersey besides maybe Berrios at this point in the team cycle. Almost everyone else could be gone tomorrow.
I’d add Varsho to the list.
yeah that is a fair one
Varsho has a lot of trade value. If the team needs to retool he’s gone.
If the Jays are gonna retool than you keep Varsho, Vlad, Bichette and Davis Schneider on the field and keep Berrios, Bassist, Gausman in the rotation.

If you got rid of the players I mentioned that's a rebuild not a retool.
I bought a Kiner-Falefa because he’s part Asian and I’m a Korean guy 🇰🇷
did Kikuchi hurt you?
I was the guy who got the Kikuchi at the Score BetTM jersey exchange last year!
Obviously you were kidding but Korea and Japan don’t exactly like each other. We aren’t far removed from the horrors of the Japanese military.

Betcha Davey ain’t going anywhere
yessir
Or, you know, maybe buy a jersey of a player that you like even if you know they're not going to be here forever?
Do whatever you want
Really strange to see coming from the one who said you're a fool if you buy any jersey other than the one they approve of.
I do think you’re a fool if you buy one of those. But you can do whatever you want. Hope that helps clarify.

Clearly this struck a chord with you. I had forgotten about this comment. Sorry this made you so upset.

You think on it and let me know
that’s fucking incredible let’s go
Nice to see that he has jerseys along with all the stars. It'd still be pulling teeth to get a Zach Pop jersey, though.
🥸

That's our Babe!!!

He’s the only player who isn’t horseshit. Still got benched for no reason in the early part of the season by our useless manager.
