Both didn't wan't to play for their previous teams.
Traded to Toronto. Fills a hole in PG/CF

Only Difference is Lowry played good on his previous team.

Are you saying Rasmus didn't? The guy was a 4.3 WAR player in 2010.

Terrence Ross = DJ Davis
Explosive athletes that scouts felt were taken much higher then they were projected to go in their respective drafts this year. Both possess as much upside as anyone in the respective draft classes.
Want: Trae Young, Michael Porter Jr., DeAndre Ayton, Jaren Jackson Jr, Marvin Bagley III, Mohamad Bamba, Shai Gilgeous- Alexander, Elie Okobo, Jevon Carter

Yeah, Rasmus was awful for the Cards in 2010. A 24 year old centre fielder with a .850 OPS and .366 wOBA? Atrocious!

I know it's a former, but David Purcey = Joey Graham, in the sense of having all the tools to succeed, but way too inconsistent and resulting in a journeyman.

On a career production level. Tmac was a star on the Magic and Rockets, but started off as a Raptor ready to make the next step. Carlos had his best years with us.


delgado = vince carter..

joey bats hasn't done anything but become the homerun king for 2 years straight, which is pointless when you look at a hitter overall.

Vince was a premier player for longer than a 2-3 year stretch is what the poster is implying.

It's true man it's that time of year when the Jays are out of it and the last couple of months
are pointless and NBA and NHL FA is pretty much over and there is nothing left but CFL and
WNBA which will make you slit your wrists lol. I'm really appreciating the Olympics to bad it
will be over in a week. I'm not usually a movie guy but I always catch up on Movies and shows
in August and September until we get to training camp and debate if we can get 8th lol

Escobar isn't lazy. And he actually produces. I don't see the comparison at all.
