Come on everybody, all jokes aside but how long until heads start to roll? We’re not far from a 1/3 of the season being gone and we continue to fall.

Now let's build on that fact and get to what it really means?

 

They've given up 1, 1, and 3 runs in the past 3 games... And are on that verge of not sweeping the Reds. Do we feel good about the offense scoring 7 runs against the Reds and winning 2?

 

who said I was feeling good? I just stated the fact that we won this series, that's all.

These guys are so much better than this and that’s what makes it so frustrating.

 

Are they? Or were we duped by a bunch of career years last season that we'll never see again?

With the bats being as dreadful as they have been, we're over .500

 

It can only get better. It has to.

Thats the hope, but they have to go out there and change it. Can't sit there and say it will come

Our daily refrain lol. I do agree. I just thought it would happen by now. I'm good enough I'm smart enough and dammit people like me!

I'm asking for an actual opinion rather than just "fact".

This team is on pace to score 200 runs less than the 2016 Blue Jays. 2016 Blue Jays were first in walks. Had really good seasons from Edwin and Donaldson. Were 5th in runs. There were moments of frustration, but if this team could score at 2016 Blue Jays levels they'd win 100 games.

 

This is something completely different. Total collapse by every single player (well compared to expectations).

 

I guess the good news is the 'problem' of signing Teoscar, Bo, Vlad long term is no longer a problem... I mean none of those guys look to be irreplaceable any more.

 

Not saying they are going to be this bad forever, but problably have established them selves as Vernon Wells, Adam Lind, Aaron Hill types, rather then perennial super stars.

You'd hope. They're completely in their heads right now.

Yup. Our expectations are so high, it seems like forever.

Come on guys - we could still win this! Too much doom!

 

 

Only a few of us here that have a positive attitude for the GDTs. Kind of fun to watch all the crying when our team isn't winning every game.

Yes, 2008 is more apt...

Ya. Ugh.

Either way, we'll know where we stand after this next road trip. Somewhat defining of a little blip before the surge of AL East.

No one said they need to win every game

Yep. To be fair Vlad took a pretty big swing at setting high expectations with his trailer/movie comment and Rogers marketed hell out of it. Walk the talk now.
