GDT - Jays vs Rangers Game 3 - April 7th @ 2PM ET

[Jays24]

What a disgusting display at the plate. Hopefully this is the low point of the season.

 

With the Springer news, this has to be rock bottom. Lineup has to be reshuffled at the very least.

[Ex Player]

Time for a self-ban. Do the right thing dude

As soon as he posted that I started to get worried

 

Jays cant hit a pitcher who had a 5.35 ERA last year, and has a lifetime 4.61 ERA

They also struck out 12 times today

[Deadpool]

What a crap series. The lineup needs to be shuffled before next game.

 

With the Springer news, this has to be rock bottom. Lineup has to be reshuffled at the very least.

 

There are three batters on the Jays with wRC+ above 100 right now. You guy want the lineup to be Bo, Vladdy, Grich then a bunch of guys who haven't been able to hit their way out of a wet paper bag so far this season?

 

These are good hitters (for the most part) and it's been a small sample size, AND they took 2 of 3 from the Yankees to start the year. It's not like Football where they only play 6 games all season so losing 3 is crippling.

I knew Springer would be injured most of the year

Hazel Mae going for the Donald Trump look I see. Her spray tan makes her look like a pumpkin.

Not really... I'm not speaking of moving everyone based on a 6 game sample size. I've wanted Vlad batting 3rd from the start with Biggio moved down where he will be eventually anyways. Until Springer gets back, I'd try the following:

 

Semien

Bo

Vlad

Teo

Gurriel

Biggio

Grichuk

Tellez/Panik

Jansen/Kirk

Moving Vlad up is probably a smart idea at this point, regardless of the small sample size.

 

Other than that, nearly everyone is slumping at the same time. That’s a recipe for disaster.

Agree. 3-3 record, 2-1 divisional. Not so bad considering we’re missing our best player and most of the lineup hasn’t been hitting at all. They’ll pull it together.

Also keep in mind this is still a very young team.

 

Tellez (who looks about 36 is only 26).

Biggio 25

Vladdie 22

Bo 23

Gurriel 27

Teo 28

Etc...etc

 

Young teams are usually inconsistent.

I'm sure the bats will get going soon. No worries

Literally impossible, though it would be deserved.

[Spanky99]

Ryu vs. Gibson

 

All signs point to this game being easy to win.

 

You lost yesterday, jackass, this loss is on you and you should feel bad.
