NY Yankees @ Toronto Blue Jays - Sept 23, 2020

[bones10]

Imagine not wanting three Hall of Fame level hitters in favour of slap hitters who can steal a base.

 

Imagine watching baseball for years, spending literally hundreds of hours of your life and not having a clue what makes a team and or player good.

[Jays24]

Having a #1 and #2 hitter who can hit around .300 and steal lots of bases makes our team worse??

 

 

Its over man. Let it go lol.

[gruber92]

Atta boy Vladdy

[Spanky99]

Attaboy Birds! Booyah!!!

[Ex Player]

When the alternative is any of Jose Bautista, Edwin Encarnacion or Josh Donaldson, yes, significantly

Remember I said playoffs.

EE hit career .220 in 34 games with just 4 dingers and 16 ribbies and an OPS of .695 in postseason.

 

Bautista and Donaldson were better though. I'll concede that

[Orgfiller]

Not the hardest hit ball but those little bloop line drives have a higher xBA than most of his crushed groundballs.

Ex-Player bro, played little league with Ducey...

[Jays24]

Who needs to catch pop ups when you get RBIs like that lol

[gruber92]

Vladdy's run threat created a run.

 

LOL

[Orgfiller]

Vlad wreaking HAVOC on the bases. 200 IQ plays.

[bones10]

Thanks Sanchez lol

[EdwinsParrot]

lmao nice

[Spanky99]

Thanks Sanchez, ya big dummy.

[Jays24]

Does Vladdy think he's playing Little League? If that throw was on the mark, he's out easily. But hey, we'll take it lol

You realize these fellas face the best pitching during the PS, no? How about that Joey Bat Flip? Edwins walk-off HR in the WC game?

[Terminator]

Vlad Jr.'s Baserunning = 1, Gary Sanchez's Defense = 0

[Spanky99]

Now you're trying to find s*** on the kid, for nothing.

[Spanky99]

These dingleberry's don't realize if the Jays beat the Yanks in the next two they can catch the pinstripes?

[JFD]

Kirk should be starting

That doesnt change the fact EE's postseason stats were s***.

I repeat, that Jays team was unbalanced and too much geared towards the homerun.

 

If you wanna see a nice balanced team have a look at the 2015 Royals, they had everything, high average and power hitters, and also guys who could run the bases. They also had a good bench IIRC.

 

Anywho, I dont wanna get more off-topic. Back to the game

[wilko]

Lol wtf Vladdy.

[Spanky99]

f*** guys???

[EdwinsParrot]

what an absolute mess

[gruber92]

These cross ups can't happen, holy f***.

Noice.

[Orgfiller]

Gurriel doesn't always get the best reads but at least he finishes the play a good deal of the time it seems.

[EdwinsParrot]

coulda been a lot worse

[bones10]

I'm a bit confused, is the first round of the playoffs in the California/Texas bubble, or is the alds/nlds onwards?
