GDT(2/3): Tampa Bay Rays @ Your Toronto Blue Jays - Archer vs. Stroman - 7:07 PM ET

[Jimcanuck]

Should have moved Tulo in the offseason. With EE and JB walking after the season, that would have left Martin as the only big contract.

[Lil Looper]

Firesale?

 

Is everyone expendable?

[fatcowxlive]

Not even my GDT can stop this shittyness

[TheGrandslamMan]

You forgot to mention, against the f***ing Rays.

 

I believe they're the lowest scoring team in the league. Well maybe not after these 2 beat downs.

[Belliss101]

16-4 are hits. My dead lord

[gruber92]

Only 4 hits tonight..

[Jimcanuck]

Firesale?

 

Is everyone expendable?

 

Everyone but Sanchez

[Belliss101]

Is anyone here crying? I've got tears streaming down my cheeks

[gruber92]

f***, even Donaldson is struggling.

[BlueJays]

What happened to Donaldson? He's becoming a trash

[TheGrandslamMan]

Holy BABIP Batman.

 

I'm not sure why everyone brings this up all of the time? Of course every hit isn't going to be ripped for a line drive or a dinger, a large percentage are gonna be ground balls through the hole and duck snorts. It goes with the territory. It's why being able to strike batters out is so important.

 

I'm not sure of the numbers, but it doesn't seem like Stroman often has guys striking out swinging.

The ride was fun but now it's over.

 

The Curse of Caleb will have us out of the playoffs for the next 20 seasons.

[Terminator]

The Jimmy Paredes era begins.

[gruber92]

Holy f***..

[Terminator]

God damn. Should have given Paredes an AB against Dyson.

. @lawandchocolate How have you seen a lack of effort? "Looking flat" doesn't count. Impossible not to look flat when not scoring.

I hate you

[Angrioter]

Annoying team to watch. Cavs by 20

[TheGrandslamMan]

How much do you think the clean sweep of the front office had to do with the morale of the team going into the season?

 

After all from what I've read they pretty much insulted Bautista and Encarnacion with their contract offers... Not good to have the 2 start players feeling slighted.

 

I'd think there would have had to be a feeling after the additions made last year of "wow AA really has our backs". Having a new front office coming in and doing things their way could turn a lot of players off and ruin some of the morale.

I wonder how much Bautista can demand on the free agent market if he has a mediocre season and the Blue Jays finish last? All the games where Bautista and Encarnacion were swinging for the fences and individual stats might not work out so well for them.

[BlueJays]

So, Gibbons might be canned in a week or so if this keeps up. Hopefully they keep on losing.

[Effit]

Another stellar night for Toronto sports.

Bautista still probably gets a 4 year deal. Edwin on the other hand might be looking at accepting the QO if he keeps hitting like this.

[Belliss101]

Another stellar night for Toronto sports.

 

Lol...you didn't actually think the Raptor road was going to continue past this series did you?

[burlingtonbandit]

So if the Jays lose the next 2 games when he isn't even managing does he still get fired?

AA quit on the team so I don't think it plays much into what's going on

The spotlight will be on him if he gets traded and tears it up with his new team into the playoffs.

[King]

Well..

[Effit]

Was hoping they wouldn't get totally blown out. Still doesn't change the fact that it's a terrible night for Toronto sports, regardless of what I thought or didn't think.
