General Blue Jays Discussion Thread (2023)

[Masterbather]

Yes, for sure.

 

If Vlad, Kirk, Manoah decide to party and pig out in the offseason, nothing the team can do.

 

Really, the best hope they don't Panda their way out of MLB.

 

Well you're right there's nothing they can do to force them to smarten up, the organization should be open to bad cop once good cop doesn't work though. Professional athletes are like children, if they know there's no discipline they will not respect authority. Send them down, take away playing time, and if even bad cop doesn't get through to them you got to just get rid of them. You just can't go forward with players like that.

Nice. This fatty conversation helped the Jays cruise to another easy victory. Now let's keep it going.

 

Why are all the white guys like Chapman built like UFC fighters but the Latinos except Espinal built like doughmen? Should the Jays resurrect the White Jays of the mid-2000's?

 

Discuss.

Geoff Baker was an idiot.

[Dick_Pole]

Good idea. We should build a jail cell with a giant hamster wheel inside of it down at the complex in Dunedin. Option Kirk to the FCL and lock him in there and only give him access to water and a head of lettuce each day until the playoffs start. Crank the heat up to 120 degrees as well.

 

By the time playoffs start call him back up and he should be a good 30 pounds lighter. The World Series will be easy to make.

 

Just spam his email every morning with this clip until he gets the message:

It would be great if it was that simple

Honestly thought we were 100% toast after the Texas series. Crazy just how quickly things turned with that perfect improbable weekend.

 

Please don’t f*** this up down the stretch here

Yeah it's hard to wrap your head around it but the AL West playing each other so much helps us a ton.

 

The worst case scenario is that one of the M's or Rangers go 3-4 but even if that happens we damn near hit our magic number anyway if we play .500 ball. If one of them goes 2-5 or worse they are basically screwed and it gives us a cushion.

[Ehjays]

The Blue Jays announced that they have selected the contract of outfielder Cam Eden. Infielder Ernie Clement has been optioned in a corresponding active roster move with infielder Mason McCoy designated for assignment to open a 40-man spot.

 

 

This must be a pinch runner move. 53/57 in SB attempts this year in 131 games

 

 

 

[Grant77]

 

At least two thirds of those are stolen on the pitcher in mybopinion.

I want us to trash Cole's ERA as much as we can over 2 starts

[Masterbather]

Do you really see this offense trashing Cole's ERA?

 

The guys chasing a Cy, he's going to unleash fury on our noodle bats.

 

We have to run up his pitch count and hope to beat the bullpen again.

No

 

What I want to see and what will probably happen are two different things.

[Governator]

I can't believe Biggio is batting 3rd.... and I'm okay with it

The sooner you accept he’s the best player on this Baseball team the better off you will be.

So they finally found nothing wrong with Manoah and still gave him an injection to reduce inflammation. right

dissecting manoah

[John_Havok]

 

Heh…when he “runs”

[JFD]

Sort of ironic that Shatkins old Gaurdians team is so damn clutch lol

[TheHurl]

Man it feels like 6-4 shouldn’t be that hard

 

I try to think of what is the most 2023 Jays thing to happen. The one that pops into my head most is following that 5 game win streak with a 4 game losing streak (1 down), followed by a 5 game winning streak and being 1 up with 1 to play...losing but Seattle also loses to backdoor the Jays in.

[Captain_Obvious]

dissecting manoah

 

What does the Vlad story have to do Manoah?
