Goal for the bottom of the lineup should be to just run the pitch count up. He's almost at 40 through 2. Small goals.

 

he would be at 40 if Glenn decided to not swing at the first pitch

How exactly can the Jays call themselves a contender when they throw out the likes of Glenn, Mastroianni, Tolleson and Kawasaki 6-9. None of them given consistent at bats would ever average over .220. That is the worst I've ever seen their lineup.

 

I'm hoping we see Lawrie back soon, Rasmus healthy, Joey Bats back in the field, and possibly a second basemen/third basemen brought in. This musical chair lineup is killing the Jays offense. Nobody gets in a groove...they're in one minute, out the next.

yeah, long fingers...

Because of their record? If the As lost Donaldson and Cespedes on the DL their lineup would look weak as well... When healthy this lineup is very good.

You made a point and then answered it all by yourself .

Honestly you're bang on, this is the best chance we have in 20 years of going to the play-offs and AA is playing circle jerk with his AAA fodder.

Which is why you need depth, you cant just have a great lineup, followed by below replacement level players. Great teams have depth

Okay give me the best players on the best teams and their replacements if they were to get injured..

Would rather see a random fan try to hit the ball instead of bums like Glenn, Tolleson, and Mastroianni.

 

Izzy is far from great but I think he would have been useful right about now...

This stadium must feel like 600 feet long to these anemic hitters... They won't score. This lineup sucks.

 

Yeah, basically.

3-2, and Navarro calls for the curve instead of just challenging a low average no power hitter.

 

Must get out, lets go to the secondary stuff guys

Idk if they're following the gameplan that says throw mostly fastballs but they keep fouling off them, throw more offspeed

They are going to the off speed stuff. Lowrie walked on a 3-2 curve ball
