GDT: 1/3 Toronto Blue Jays @ Los Angeles Dodgers(10:10 ET)

Varsho wtf, at least slide

[gruber92]

What a savvy trade good ol' Ross pulled off for Varsho.

[Captain_Obvious]

Varsho sucks..lol

 

Varsho needs to re-learn how to hit. He has been atrocious offensively.

[Jonn]

Varsho is going to have a wRC+ under 70 soon at this rate. If he has options left and can be sent down, then they really need to consider it. Even for a great CF that’s s***. In LF it’s horrendous.

 

He for sure has options. He just might be over the service time requirement to reject an assignment. He would have to agree to it.

[Omar]

I noticed that s*** on Groves pants in the second inning.

[WryNGinger]

What was that in the 3rd? 3 outs on 6 pitches? ffs...

Captain obvious strikes again! They bought high on Varsho. He's a decent defender, but no where close to Keirmaier level which the defensive numbers might have suggested last year. I'd trade him for Bellinger at this point.

[Jonn]

Jason Heyward had a great rookie year. But he seemed like he was paid for what he could do based on that first and third season. He was never consistently very good.

[gruber92]

If Merrifield is leadoff we probably have a run by now..

 

Yeah, it's time but I bet they're hesitant to make the move because Springer is a lead off lifer

[saskjayfan]

aren't you suppose to throw him out rather than let him change his pants so he can't cheat anymore?

[Jonn]

I believe the umpire has desecration to tell the player to change whatever they don't like. They don't have to automatically eject them unless they have 100 percent concrete evidence of cheating.

[tossingthiscoin]

It's almost impossible to score 2 runs given this poor offense.

[Omar]

Come on, you know full well those rules don't apply to the Dodgers and the Yankees.

[gruber92]

WTF is Berrios throwing 3-1 change ups to the #8 hitter? Holy f***ing maddening.

2023

WAR = 1.9

BA = .211

OBP = .273

SLG = .355

OPS = .628

 

At what point Ross Atkins should swallow his pride and correct a disastrous offseason move.

[spats]

They can't keep running him out there. If they can't send him down, then sit him.He is lost out there. At the very least , he should be batting 9th. I'd rather see Luplow, Lukes or Merrifield in left.

[BigCecil]

Hey. take it easy. You are talking about our clean up hitter to start the season.

 

He has 2 options.

[Captain_Obvious]

Captain obvious strikes again! They bought high on Varsho. He's a decent defender, but no where close to Keirmaier level which the defensive numbers might have suggested last year. I'd trade him for Bellinger at this point.

 

He has actually been at Kiermaier's level when playing CF. Let's not be rash over a month of complete sucking offensively.

[Jonn]

I agree they have to do something I just don't think they will send him down. But they need to find someone to play LF the rest of this Season.

Never according to everyone here...look at dat WAR

You are being too generous to say his war is 1.9. I'd prefer FWAR more than BWAR in terms of batters, and Varsho's fwar is 0.7.

[JFD]

Yeah, it's time but I bet they're hesitant to make the move because Springer is a lead off lifer

 

Lead off lifer having the worst season of his life

[BigCecil]

Jason Heyward had a great rookie year. But he seemed like he was paid for what he could do based on that first and third season. He was never consistently very good.

 

Yep. This is his best offensive year over 200 PAs since 2015.

[BigCecil]

Like it or not your buddy Pham is coming.

[Jonn]

I don't believe Varsho is a complete lost cause. I watched him a lot last year. He was a dangerous hitter and you felt he could go deep at any time. But you don't get that feeling at all this year. He got all messed up in Spring and got away from his strengths and after some initial improvement going back to an older approach it has completely snowballed on him now. These issues could probably be addressed in the off-season but we need offense now. And hope they can address this.

[Jonn]

Like it or not your buddy Pham is coming.

 

At this point I don't care I just want to win lol. I am tired of getting zero production from LF.

[Jays24]

Take the sticky stuff away from the pitcher and he looks mortal eh lol

[Blue Jays Lurker 2023]

Trasho = minus 2.8%

 

Win Probability Added for Offensive Player

Given average teams, this is the change in probability

caused by this batter during the game

A change of +/- 1 would indicate one win added or lost

[Captain_Obvious]

Springer .. killer of ralies .. he has been s*** lately.

[jaysguy44]

Oh piss of George, been absolutely useless lately
