General 2016 Blue Jays discussion thread

[HERPDERP]

Brandon Webb was so f***ing good.

 

its a shame, the guy was a workhorse and immune to injuries and then it just hit him like a wall

[Krylian]

A younger Osuna. Really impressive how he's gotten in shape.

Where is the game day thread

[Stangstag]

Stroman is basically having the same control issues that Sanchez had last year

[bones10]

Made a s***** one

[RealAccountant]

Anyone else trying to avoid this team right now. Hope they had a good draft and there is a turnaround soon

More like indifferent.

 

I think this team will be competitive at the trade deadline but I don't think this team is good enough to beat both Boston and the Orioles. The pitching aside from Estrada and Sanchez has been mediocre (and Happ is clearly outperforming his numbers), not to mention Sanchez won't last long due to the innings limit. The offense is s*** (its already June) and the bullpen is a clusterf***.

 

I will get more excited looking at the prospects we'll be getting at the deadline. Sell.

Getting the playoff drought out of the way last season has at least made me less angry when the Jays lose. The window is nearly closed on the Bautista years, but I've accepted it and am taking whatever I get from this season at is comes. The draft and development of prospects definitely seems more appealing now that I'm seeing how mediocre the big league team is.

Looks like Romero syndrome to me.

[RealAccountant]

The bullpen is probably the worst part. Loups only job is to get out left handers and we all know what happened yesterday

 

I think it's time to tank the thing

[Governator]

Looks like Romero syndrome to me.

 

If Stroman starts walking 5+ every start I might agree, but I think he's become too predictable for his own good. Refining his game approach in AAA might go along way.

[Stangstag]

Apparently Tulo may have suffered a setback in his rehab. Dunedin play-by-play announcer made a tweet about a setback to Tulo but deleted it very quickly.

[puphood]

Can't just hang this lack luster effort on one guy. Little consistency to no hitting from Martin, Pillar, EE, Travis & Tulo. Since Travis has taken over @ second base there seems to be a lack of double plays and my onion of his defence remains the same as last year "middle of the road". The Jays were expected to give up some defence by putting Travis on second but get some predictable hitting which has not happened. Martin has been a sore spot both defence and offence. I can't go on its to painful.........

Probably for the best now

I change channels,but every time I do,there is some sort of Mohamed Ali tribute going on."YAWN"

So it's back to the Jays,then I usually fall asleep.

Headed to game in an hour

 

F Yeah

Hopefully it's nothing minor.

Injury update:

 

- Tulo was removed from today's intrasquad game in extended ST with discomfort. Gibby said it wasn't him being reinjured but Tulo was hesitant to keep playing after feeling discomfort, no timetable anymore for return.

 

- Bautista's fine, he was ready to play but Gibby decided to give him off today. Also hinted that he's available for PH duty.

 

No news on Cecil or Morales but both eying a late June possible return. Who knows. No BP sessions for Cecil yet but Morales had light BP sessions

Hope your right Gov,something has got to be done though,and the sooner the better.

[THANOS]

As long as Barney continues to play like this, Tulo can take all the time he wants.

Agreed, but careful about suggesting he could tweak anything with a AAA stint, some here will crucify for it.

[Jonn]

Defensively he continues to be stellar but hes no longer hitting which is to be expected.

[VE2OH]

Travis is down to 154

[Governator]

Travis is down to 154

 

He should eat steak and broccoli.

[burlingtonbandit]
