JaysAllMighty Old-Timey Member Posted July 13, 2022 Posted July 13, 2022 Lets give him a chance first
Carlos Danger Old-Timey Member Posted July 13, 2022 Posted July 13, 2022 He is who I wanted after Gibbons in the first place. Hope he is here to stay and this is a waste of a thread.
Terminator Old-Timey Member Posted July 13, 2022 Posted July 13, 2022 For the love of god I pray he takes away that home run jacket and the sunflower seeds
John_Havok Old-Timey Member Posted July 13, 2022 Author Posted July 13, 2022 He's starting Tapia in his first game as manager. THis is not a good start.
Brownie19 Old-Timey Member Posted July 13, 2022 Posted July 13, 2022 For the love of god I pray he takes away that home run jacket and the sunflower seeds Agreed. I hope he makes them all shave and get haircuts too. No long hair, no beards, no sideburns. If they bat flip or don't run out groundballs - benched. We need more order on this team.
wilko Old-Timey Member Posted July 13, 2022 Posted July 13, 2022 He's starting Tapia in his first game as manager. THis is not a good start. Plz fire.
wilko Old-Timey Member Posted July 13, 2022 Posted July 13, 2022 Lets give him a chance first He went in way too early with that hand shake. That's a fireable offence.
Solaxys Old-Timey Member Posted July 13, 2022 Posted July 13, 2022 "I don't think there's anything that's going to be that different moving forward" - Schneider
John_Havok Old-Timey Member Posted July 13, 2022 Author Posted July 13, 2022 "I don't think there's anything that's going to be that different moving forward" - Schneider Dont read too much into the press conference. Its not like he was gonna come out and say "yeah, Charlie was a f***ing tool with no clue. He'd never hold anyone accountable and was more interested in his bongos than the lineups. Total muppet. Everything will be totally different going forward."

John_Havok Old-Timey Member Posted July 13, 2022 Author Posted July 13, 2022 Hehe ya for sure; I was just adding satire to the thread. Then keep up the good work. i've got another great thread ready to go if the Jays lose tonight.
Jays24 Old-Timey Member Posted July 13, 2022 Posted July 13, 2022 Not a single thing will change in terms of roster/lineup management. That was clearly a collective effort. Now I hope the players take him seriously and cut it out with the fooling around. It's cute when you're young and not expected to win but not when you were one of the World Series favourites.
Jonn Old-Timey Member Posted July 13, 2022 Posted July 13, 2022 About time this thread was made. His body language at his Introductory Press Conference physically disgusted me.

I hope he grabs Tapia, holds him down with one hand, shaves those ridiculous dreadlocks with the other and tells him he needs to earn them back.
Omar Old-Timey Member Posted July 13, 2022 Posted July 13, 2022 I hope he grabs Tapia, holds him down with one hand, shaves those ridiculous dreadlocks with the other and tells him he needs to earn them back. Skinny Predator would drop him like a bad habit.
vaff Verified Member Posted July 13, 2022 Posted July 13, 2022 His first line up indicates he doesn’t have a weird platoon fascination like Charlie. Who used our crappy left handed hitters vs righties, just because they hit left handed. Ignoring that our right handed hitters actually hit righties well. Extend Schneider.
glory Old-Timey Member Posted July 13, 2022 Posted July 13, 2022 First game, Tapia starts. Thread is necessary.
vaff Verified Member Posted July 13, 2022 Posted July 13, 2022 First game, Tapia starts. Thread is necessary. But he’s hitting 9th. Charlie would have him 6th or something.
polar bear Verified Member Posted July 13, 2022 Posted July 13, 2022 For the love of god I pray he takes away that home run jacket and the sunflower seeds 100% behind you here.
BlueJays Verified Member Posted July 13, 2022 Posted July 13, 2022 First game, Tapia starts. Thread is necessary. Nothing wrong about him playing. The big difference is he is batting 9th.
BCZ Verified Member Posted July 14, 2022 Posted July 14, 2022 Just getting ahead of the game. Literally came here to make this thread. Beat me to it.
BCZ Verified Member Posted July 14, 2022 Posted July 14, 2022 Nothing wrong about him playing. The big difference is he is batting 9th. Was thinking this as well.
M.E. Verified Member Posted July 14, 2022 Posted July 14, 2022 I know it was one game but not sitting around waiting for the HR was a nice change. 2 Hit and Runs and a SB. Who knew that was possible?
John_Havok Old-Timey Member Posted July 14, 2022 Author Posted July 14, 2022 Nothing wrong about him playing. There's plenty of things wrong with him playing. If he starts 2 games out of 7 ... yeah, okay. But 5 or 6 out of 7 is a joke. He brings nothing to the table offensively, defensively .... the only plus to him is running from 1st or 3rd or 2nd to home ... so essentially he's a pinch runner. Too bad Zimmer is a better pinch runner and a better defender. I'd rather them punt Tapia into the sun, keep Zimmer and bring up someone else to fill the time until Atkins can land a real left handed bench bat. They finally cut bait with Morontoyo, maybe they're ready to do the same with Goldilocks.
