Hey, I was wondering if I could write a piece on the history and use of the splitter and how Kevin Gausman has used to pitch to turn himself into an ace.

Blue Jays signed Derek Holland to a minor league deal, if no objections I'll write something on it.

Morning all.

About 20 articles in for the month so far. Let's keep it going. I have some article suggestions below if you need!

Also a big shoutout to Chris and his awesome work this past week. I was on vacation over the past weekend and he did amazing handling everyone's submissions and editing and so forth! 

1. Comparing Kevin Gausman's April to Robbie Ray's April with the Jays last season
2. Predicting when Gabriel Moreno gets promoted
3. Three prospects who could be the next in line for promotions
4. Should Cavan Biggio go back to AAA when he comes off the IL?
5. Satniago Espinal has officially won the second base job moving forward.
6. New information regarding the Jose Ramirez trade (see Jeff Blair's article from sportsnet)
7. Trades you wish the Jays would have made in the offseason (Ie for Pablo Lopez on the Marlins, etc)
8. Overview of Yusei Kikuchi's first month
9. Looking at how Alek Manoah's Cy Young odds have improved through the first month
10. Will the return of Hernandez help with the RISP issues?
11. Overview of any minor league players who retired this year (lots of research required)
12. Minor league contracts handed out that we may have missed (view Jays transactions pages back to March)
13. How Greg Bird is doing since he opted out
14. Blue Jays World Series/Playoff odds after one month
15. Looking ahead to the May schedule

Sure! I do ask for this one you take a look at WynnBet odds if possible (it’s Fansided’s betting platform they’ve partnered with)

Good point Tyson. As far as any “odds” articles go, just wanted to mention that we can only use WynnBet for referencing any odds, or any betting in general. They’ve partnered with Fansided, so we have to be careful there.
