they dont just lose when they are trying to get back to .500, they get crushed.

 

Being outscored 72-20 in those games.

 

Edit: 68-20. Still

Another 0-2 count leads to a homerun and 3 more runs...Catcher tipping pitches in that AB imo...annoys the crap out of me

 

Or maybe Stroman's been dogshit today... :rolleyes:

Time to predict a solo HR from Smoak to lead off next inning.

 

Well he hit the single that would have scored JB last inning. But then it would only be a 5 run deficit instead of 6......

So at the beginning of the season most people would have said the starters were our biggest strength. What happened?

This team could make the playoffs but they arent gonna beat Houston or the yankees. Just sell and build around Vlad and Bo. Dream '19

 

Anything can happen in the playoffs (god knows the Royals should not have beaten the Jays in 2015 if just looking at talent), but the bigger issue is whether the Jays are even good enough to get there. It's getting to the point where I'm not sure if they are. Good enough to be around 80-85 wins? Sure. Will that be enough to get to the 2nd wild card? Maybe, but that's a pretty s***** spot to be in. I wouldn't trade any assets to get help for this year. Maybe some C level prospects but nothing that we might end up regretting.

Our offense, and injury.

Seems the only part of the team that has not underperformed is the bullpen (although a couple of them have been total dogshit). But offense, defense and starting pitching have all been overall bad. This team needs a trade to inject some new energy into it. They need a guy like Mookie Wilson back in '89 to come in and provide a spark.

Agreed. But if there's a chance to get that 2nd wildcard there's no reason to blow it up either.

The odds of failing this many times to get back to .500 must be astronomical.

 

This is just stupid at this point.

 

Gotta think there's a psychological aspect. They've played so bad in these games.

Steven Vogt brings a lot of veteran presents and is a clear upgrade at backup C for minimal cost.
