Boston Red Sox vs. Blue Jays - Sept 10 to 12

[Ex Player]

Zeuch gets the start tonight. Thank god no more openers

 

[Jonn]

We still have a shot at the 4th overall pick. Only 2 games in the loss column behind KC. They are in a decent run of form as well. Hopefully we can continue to pile up the L’s while they play atleast .500. 3rd overall looks a lot less likely. Relying on the Marlins to put wins together is bleak at best.

 

Its crazy that 5 teams are on pace to lose 100 games or more this year.

Generally not a fan of tanking, but I would love to see how this front office approaches the draft with a high pick + a larger bonus pool.

[Ex Player]

First pitch homerun, thats not gonna help your confidence....LOL

[Abomination]

That was a hell of a throw.

The Blue Jays were 7-1 against the Royals this year so they own the tiebreaker. They'll have to be a game worse than KC.

Not that I expected Tellez to come through there, but that was some ugly umpiring, and you could tell even w/o the box.

Turrrrible!

[saskjayfan]

seriously, why do we need to play smoak and Grichuk right now.

[BTS]

Man, you guys still watching this s*** have my respect.

[saskjayfan]

hello....the jays can afford betts

[Deadpool]

Is that the best place to spend the resources? I'd be happy to pick him up, obviously, but I would rather buy a top-flight pitcher in our situation.

[Barkerfan23]

Not a good start so far

[saskjayfan]

Man, you guys still watching this s*** have my respect.

 

some guys like numbers....others actually like watching ball!

[Deadpool]

I hate giving the green light 3-0, and that is why.

[glory]

Man, you guys still watching this s*** have my respect.

 

Seriously. I know Jays fans are used to mediocrity, and not outright dog s*** tanking, but seasons like this are absolutely brutal to sit through. I hope we are not still tanking next season.

I'd spend the money on the best player willing to come here to be honest. I'd rather buy a top flight pitcher, but if none will come here I'd rather spend the money on betts than sign a couple second tier pitching options.

There are 15 MLB games being played tonight.

Have you looked at the starting rotation for next year? Pearson won't be up till at least a month into the season. Given his lack of innings it might be later than that. We might add 10 maybe even 15 wins, but we aren't going to be good next year either.

fair enough..

at a boy davis.

It's called being a Toronto Blue Jays fan.

[Barkerfan23]

Lol Fisher is such a zero

[saskjayfan]

Fisher with 10Ks in his last 17 plate appearances....I'm sure glad I get to watch that.

[gruber92]

at a boy davis.

 

I think Davis has an actual shot at cracking the 25 man next season.

[Barkerfan23]

I'd take him over the likes of Hernandez and the fish

 

At least he makes contacts

It's also the fact he plays a very good CF and is a great base runner.

They definitely seem to rate him a lot higher than Alford. It's nice to see a guy who can play defense in the outfield. He needs to get the bat going though. He could be a decent 4th outfielder though.

[Deadpool]

Cavan! Nicely done!

[Spanky99]

Nice to see, Biggio!
