That Rays lineup is honestly pretty f***ing embarrassing

[G-Snarls]

Happy Opening day!!!!

[Eat My Shatkins]

Caminero didn't make the opening day roster I see.

[mphenhef]

Only two lefties versus Berrios in a Rays lineup. I find that surprising.

Really? Like I get it's not great but their top 5 is solid and you just know theyll still platoon their way to 85 wins at least. They also have somewhat of an excuse because of how the Franco situation screwed them over.

Incoming 3ip/6er Berrios start

[Stangstag]

So they’re rolling with Varsho in the middle of the lineup again.

 

Really hope he can bounce back this year. We need a lefty that can do SOMETHING

[Abomination]

Being without Lowe and Franco really hurts it. If we removed Vladdy and Bichette from ours, they're probably pretty comparable.

They're easily better in that scenario lol.

Removing Bo and Vlad would just force in other STUDS like Clement and Votto though

[Laika]

Cavan Biggio must be feeling the heat. Ernie Clement and Davis Schneider staring at his back. It's like trying to fend off Tony Gwynn and Jeff Kent all season.

[Jays24]

Just a reminder that the Jays had this lineup a few years ago. Now that defense wants to make me puke but boy was it fun to watch them mash the ball.

 

CF Springer

2B Semien

1B Vlad

SS Bo

RF Teo

LF Gurriel

DH Kirk

C Jansen

3B Biggio

 

Wish we were able to add Varsho and IFK instead of Gurriel and Biggio. Now that would be a complete balanced team.

Biggio could literally shoot someone in the middle of Yonge Street and he wouldn't lose his spot in the lineup

it think it looks fine because we're all kind of assuming the Rays pixie dust will turn Palacios into a 30-homerun guy and Caballero into a stud

Semien was such a gem

Also just a reminder you don’t have to be a f***ing toe rag every year. Haven’t even started game 1 and you’re already bitching

Biggio is the second coming of Joe Morgan when he's at danger of losing his roster spot. This tandem is gonna give us 5 WAR from 2B/limited OF opportunities.

Didn't you just bitch about Varsho batting 5th?

 

I was just remembering my favourite Jays lineup under the Shatkins regime...

[Jays24]

it think it looks fine because we're all kind of assuming the Rays pixie dust will turn Palacios into a 30-homerun guy and Caballero into a stud

 

Of course... their track record has earned that type of thinking.

Just 162 more games of bitching and whining to go!

Season opening in the trop sucks but oh well hopefully they can take 3 of 4 for once

[PitaBaby]

Very bittersweet this year, lost my Dad a week before Christmas. He was a HUGE Jays fan I remember in 92 he ran out of gas and trotted 10 blocks home to watch the first game of the World Series.

 

He really hated that Braves crowd chant.

[Jays24]

Why is MLB talking about expansion when you still got teams in Tampa man. It's a disgrace to see the ballpark half empty for a season opener when you're consistently a good team.

[The_DH]

I've got my tv on for a Blue Jays game. Yeah baby!!!!

[Spanky99]

lol @ that abysmal crowd. Embarrassing.

[CJ-Freeway]

Lfggggg Blue Birdsssss

[Angrioter]

Finalmente, inician nuestros lamentos y penurias!!
