General Blue Jays Discussion Thread (2023)

[Grant77]

Springer, Biggio, Bo, Vlad, and Chapman are a combined 18-37 against Shawn Armstrong. Small sample, but big results. Maybe we can actually score some early runs.

Really need to win this one so we can save bullets tomorrow.

 

Step up and finish it boys

[Laika]

Need to just treat this like a playoff game and manage the bullpen aggressively

Agreed. Then you call up Bowden Francis and throw him to the wolves tomorrow.

Yeah, so we're sitting Belt?

[Grant77]

Yeah, so we're sitting Belt?

 

I think the point still stands, despite Belt's wonky back.

[G-Snarls]

Yeah, so we're sitting Belt?

 

Radio crew saying Belt told Schneider his back is hurting a bit today, so they don't want to risk using him on a day game after a night game

 

f***

Okay. I thought it was the Jays radical load management at play.

[Masterbather]

If only we had another pitcher instead of Richards to throw out there. Maybe if we had another stud pitcher we could have pushed back our leverage guys another inning.

 

I've been told we have "enough" pitching though, thank goodness we're not overloading all this goodness with more greatness.

I just don't get why Richards is still on our roster. Francis is a lot better than him lately.

I can think of someone that might even be better than that 🤔

I thought that was a spot for Jackson but he pitched 2 innings yesterday. His stuff worked in that same position

Maybe, that's going to happen sometimes especially in the playoffs when you run through arms like it's nobody's business. This was basically managed like a playoff game.

 

I think the main point is, you can never have enough great arms. Never heard a manager ever complain about having too many great pitchers.

 

He didn't really want to try to pitch Richards there, he just had to.

Jesus christ Belt

[Masterbather]

Jesus christ Belt

Yeah, dude is made of glass, I like him, it's still been a good signing, but he's made of glass.

[hanton]

Bowden Francis gets the start tomorrow

[M.E.]

Congrats Jays Fans!!!!!! What a rough up and down season, but they are through. LETS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!

[Masterbather]

Thank you Rangers!

 

Now go f*** yourselves!

[L54]

f*** ya the fellas are in

[bones10]

We’re in!!!! Let’s win this s***

[glory]

Jays are in and don’t have to use Gausman tomorrow! We made it through this frustrating as hell regular season. Now time to get hot in October.

[WryNGinger]

Start all the scrubs tomorrow! Rays scrubs vs Jays scrubs. Must see TV. (actually that might be kind of fun to watch)

[Stangstag]

What time we thinking??

 

4 games on Tuesday. Phillies probably get the night/preferred timeslot.

 

The timeslots last year were 12, 2, 4, and 8. Jays only got the 4pm slot because they played the Mariners and they couldn’t play much earlier.

 

Phillies/Dbacks - 8pm

 

That leaves 4pm, 2pm, or 12pm.

 

Im thinking if we play the Rays, it’ll be 4pm. If we play Twins its probably 12pm

I think Astros get preferred slot.

I think Astros get preferred slot.

 

They never have in the past. I think they played at like noon or 2 last year in the DS series

f***kkk the only time it sucks to be a west coaster for sports, might be calling in for a few days next week

I thought they’d get the most eyes. I can see Philly/Harper though I guess

What the hell is the point of these stupid slots? Shouldn't all the game just be at 530 through 8:30 overlapped a bit, make sure games are shown on main channel in market on some secondary market out of channel. Wouldn't they get more viewers with that scheme as compared to a noon Tuesday game?

 

Also, sorry for all my crazy posts, I obviously did not understand that there is no horrible demon god of fate making sure the Mariners win, I thought for sure there was. My wife is madder than you guys and now I am pretty sure she has got me an appointment to get boosted to kill me with the myocardiditis. I sure hope I survive the boost tomorrow.

[bones10]

I think we definitely want twins by the way, Tampa has seen all of arms a lot in the last week. Diaz, Arozerna, Lowe and Ramirez are tough outs.

This act is wearing thin. I admit I too was mildly amused at first. But now you're at the point of beating a dead horse.
