Davis Schneider appreciation thread

[L54]

In 3 games Davis Schneider has as much fWAR as Vladdy, Varsho, Espinal, Biggio, and De Jong have combined for the Jays this season.

 

15 PA and 0.6 fWAR

1266 PA and 0.6 fWAR

 

Lmao that’s hilarious

[Buster]

He does something a bit unusual with his back foot at the end of his swing.

[Masterbather]

Y'all jinxing him into 0-fer Cleveland series.

[Big Sexy]

Let’s go boys!

 

Get behind the team!

 

Exciting few weeks ahead

[AMS528]

Y'all jinxing him into 0-fer Cleveland series.

 

Funny enough if he went like 0-14 in that series his numbers would still be decent on the whole.

[Daniel Labude]

Great 1st series, should have been up well before now

[polar bear]

Oh he is very appreciated trust me. 9 hits and 3 games. Couldn't possibly ask for more lol.

 

10,11,12 maybe.

[Captain_Obvious]

Y'all jinxing him into 0-fer Cleveland series.

 

His mustache should be able to absorb most of the jinxing energy. There has been jinxing since game 1.

[Terminator]

Extend him on a 12 year deal

[Captain_Obvious]

Davis Schneider has a wOBA of 0.775 vs xwOBA of 0.544. He is clearly getting a little lucky and will just settle around 0.550 wOBA for his career.

[Terminator]

[Krylian]

0 for 2. 2Ks so far tonight.

 

Release him.

[Terminator]

Extend him on a 12 year deal

 

I'm lowering my extension offer to 11 years after tonight.

[Jonn]

Even the best look human sometimes. He will bounce back. Gavin Williams was f***ing ridiculous tonight.

Yeah I didn't see any bad ABs, he was just beat, he didn't beat himself.

[keggy]

Release him.

 

Schneider is a mirage. Take away 3 hot games and he has a career MLB wRC+ of -100.

lulz

[TheHurl]

Goodbye Schneids! It was a nice run

[Masterbather]

I warned you MF'ers

[Jonn]

I warned you MF'ers

 

He walked twice. Hardly a bad night.

 

Not playing him yesterday was comically stupid considering how hot he has been.

He was absolutely robbed a base hit by Gabby Arias, that was a majestic play.

[jaysblue]

I'd be all for bringing Merrifield back but certainly not at the price of $18 million. He's had a nice bounceback season but I'm not sold on him being able to recreate his 2023 success.

 

Agreed.

[G-Snarls]

Agreed.

 

Yes

 

2-3 year contract for Merrifield at reasonable AAV to be a super utility guy would be great

 

Would not give him 1 year 19M

[jaysblue]

Yes

2 years/$24-25M would be reasonable for both sides. I don't want Merrifield getting in the 15M+ range per season given his age.

[Terminator]

Well well well…ole Terminator here has been calling for more playing time for Babe Schneider daily for the past week.

 

But Cavan Biggio has been playing so well there wasn’t any room for him (he actually got his OPS above .700 for the first time in years).

 

But guess what? They squeezed Schneider into the game anyway and what does he do? Hits the game winning bomb.

He is also 2-17 with 11 Ks...

 

Still better than Espinal lol

I wonder if they'll be able to squeeze Davis Schneider and his .367/.472/.700 slashline into the game tonight. Going to be tough with Biggio on the cusp of OPS'ing .700 again but we'll see. Maybe they can find a pinch hit at bat or two for him this series.

Can Davis Schneider hit the 100 mph Grayson Rodriquez will throw at him? Don't know. Biggio can't either but he's gonna just stand there until he gets a floppy breaking pitch and then loop it 341 feet over the right field wall.

 

Pretty conflicted about this one. On one hand Biggio only has to pull a ball 340 feet to right for a homer, but Schneider would have to pull it about 430. On the other hand if neither can catch up to Rodriquez anyway, Biggio's 340 foot oppo pop fly to left will be an out by 100 feet, but Scheider's 340 foot oppo pop fly will be a homer.

 

Yeah. I hate these f***ing bastard Orioles rigging their stupid park.

They need to roll out the best defending team to prevent runs. Even at the cost of losing!

[Olerud363]

Yeah. I hate these f***ing bastard Orioles rigging their stupid park.

 

 

Eventually there will be a game the Jays lose because Vlad or Bo or Springer pulls a 400 foot fly ball to left, out of 29/30 parks and Gunner Henderson or even worse Adam Frazier or somebody hit's a 338 foot fly ball to right that just goes over.

 

That's what the park is designed to do. Hasn't happened yet but it will, hopefully not this week. But probably this week. Yeah. Probably tonight. Keep that in mind for your homerun contest. Varsh, Belt are good bets... though I guess Bo could go oppo. Did last year I think.
