[RobinThicc]

Yeah seems like weird lineup construction but those top 5 are just too good to separate. And the quality between them and the bottom 4 is quite a wide gap

[Stangstag]

How is tellez still on this team lol

 

Brutal start but he’s been much better as of late. Wouldn’t be surprised if he went 2-4 with a couple XBH today

[Omar]

Reese is the backstop again....

 

[Slyfisher]

When are the players going to call a players only meeting and hold ppl accountable? Enough mental errors! We're not good enough right now

[Spanky99]

I'm almost at the point where I'd be satisfied with a single victory.

[Daniel Labude]

Need to put together a good offense, defense, and pitching game

[Jimcanuck]

D'you take the over or under on 50+ HR for VGJ this year

[EdwinsParrot]

Jays today: lets win it for vladdy

 

Vladdy: k

Vladdy: k

 

DUMBtoyo: I GOT YOU

At this point the question has to be thrown out there. Vlad Jr. might be the best hitter the Blue Jays have ever had? He's going to be competing with our best offensive seasons ever as a 22 year old.

Long as he keeps the weight down, I'll give it a yes

[Jimcanuck]

Also, all that work VGJ put in at 3B over the past 3-4 years is paying big dividends at 1B, IMO

[gruber92]

Vladdy is one sick individual.

[gruber92]

Long as he keeps the weight down, I'll give it a yes

 

100% if he stays in shape, he'll be the best Blue Jays hitter of all time, surpassing Delgado.

[Omar]

Umpires who "anticipate strikes". Buck hitting the margaritas early today.

[gruber92]

I can't believe Adams didn't get the start today. I guess with tomorrow's early start he'll get the nod.

[connorp]

Brutal start but he’s been much better as of late. Wouldn’t be surprised if he went 2-4 with a couple XBH today

 

.467 OPS last week. Right at .700 2 weeks, little under .700 for past month. Though admittedly that qualifies as much better than his start

[Jgarza868899]

Good eye rowdy

[Deadpool]

Ha ha, f*** you Red Sox.

[Orgfiller]

lol Vasquez

[Deadpool]

[RobinThicc]

[Omar]

Yes Biggio!!!!!

I mean it certainly didn't help him at all last year, if anything it was a detriment since he was chasing balls he had no business going after. He's just a legitimately athletic dude and losing all that excess weight made it show up, not to mention it's evident he's put in a ton of work defensively to get to where he's at right now.
