General Blue Jays Discussion Thread (2023)

I wonder if they keep Mattingly on board.

[hanton]

I was never on board with getting rid of Martinez but it's time, don't care about a "strategist" being reassigned (whatever that means)

[Sorrow]

Jays decline Merrifield's option as expected as per Matheson.

[Jays24]

So we do remove people for underperforming in their role. Crazy how Atkins can still keep his job while sucking at his. Guess it pays to be bed buddies with your boss lol.

I think Hudgens was the first guy that should have been given the axe as the team was generally unprepared to face opposition starters this past season. They had a huge negative run differential in the first inning and were constantly playing from behind.

[TheHurl]

I don't understand the relationship with Hudgens. He left once already and they brought him back in this role that no one can explain properly and now they don't let him go just move him around. Oh well as long as he doesn't have any players ear anymore it would seem it is a good thing

Now for the worst time of every baseball seasons where fans argue stupid meaningless baseball awards. It is also the time where there are some interesting roster moves. I am admittedly poorly researched this year. Does anyone have a list players which need to be added to the 40 or exposed to the rule 5?

[MikeM3]

Thanks for reminding me how s*** our coaching staff is. Atkins is supposed to be a nerd and he's got this dumb Maga hitting coach and dui Pete Walker

 

Listen to Donnie ecker or Brent Strom talk and wonder if we're playing the same sport

Bluejaysnation put the following article out a while back, unsure if it's 100% accurate but its probably really close.

Macko is a big one for sure, Lantigua an interesting possibility

That just means you google women's underwear often. It caters to your interests. Are you just looking at them or buying them as well?

Also, Berrios.

[Ehjays]

Could we get 3 or perhaps 4?

[Ehjays]

Moreno won for NL C

[Spanky99]

KK makes it 3.

[Angrioter]

Moreno + for Varsho

[Ehjays]

 

Recap

[Grant77]

We got 3 gold gloves and our most deserving player (a strong platinum glove candidate) didn't get one. Go figure.

I thought he'd win too.

Nah Kwan is clearly better

Voters hate anyone that splits time between multiple positions

Interesting for Moreno they must have valued his DRS of 19 pretty highly but devalued Varsho because he split positions? f*** it. Who cares. GG’s are mostly ******** anyway.

[wamco]

Trip in traffic

[Jonn]

Varsho not winning one is very much ********. We all s*** on that guy but he was far and away the best LF in Baseball and he's probably a top 5 CF as well.
