GDT- Rays @ Jays (Game 1/3) 7:07 ET

[Jays24]

The Jays would have had better offensive success if they went to the batters box without a bat

[Omar]

Can someone get a hit tonight and preserve what little remains of our dignity? Do it for the poor children.

[BTS]

I realize that everyone is angry and the knives are out. But there's absolutely a scenario where Shapiro is retained and this team thrives. You don't need to replace the President to fix the development issues on the baseball ops side.

[CJ-Freeway]

Those board members have gone M.I.A lately loll.

 

As they should lmao

Shapiro has to own it.

Of course there is

 

There is a scenario where Atkins is given an extension and the team thrives

 

The question is what are the odds of that happening

But the product on the field is the most important part of his job and the main thing people give a crap about. This guy has been talking about construction projects for like 7 years. The fact he didn't feel it was necessary to can Atkins after last year also made his seat a lot hotter.

 

Now I can live with him staying if Atkins and Schneider are canned immediately but he shouldnt have much leeway. This team is trending in all the wrong directions and we haven't even achieved any real success with him yet. They've been here for 9+ years now ffs.

If there is any accountability on the baseball performance side he should go. He is 100% in charge of baseball decisions also.

[5ToolPhenom]

Friday night divisional rival game and it's not even being offered by Sportsnet? Unreal. Don't even know why I bother paying for it at this point.

[Omar]

[o2cui2i]

Hard to watch

[Jays24]

Jansen saved us the embarrassment of a lifetime... thank you!!! Lol

[HomeRunHomer]

Everyone's job is safe.

[Omar]

everyone's job is safe.

 

lol

[Jays24]

I f***ing knew Jansen and Babe would save us!!!

[BTS]

If there is any accountability on the baseball performance side he should go. He is 100% in charge of baseball decisions also.

 

I don't even know if he's interested in keeping the job, but he can probably buy himself another 5 years by firing Atkins, saying that there's been a failure of development here, then poaching Matt Arnold or something and giving him complete autonomy over baseball ops. That would be fine.

[The_DH]

Jansen and the Babe. The only hitters worth watching.

[Omar]

 

The power of towelly cannot be denied.

[philly30]

Maybe a perfect game would have sparked some changes

[BigCecil]

We have a pulse. Had one big comeback this week. Lets have another.

[Omar]

Schneider is going to bench Jano and Davis Schneider tomorrow.................just because.

 

 

edit...........and Varsho too.

[Jays24]

Of course, it was a scheduled rest day from their "high performance plan" made back in April lol

[Omar]

Well at least the people in attendance got something to cheer for. We've all been to games that have been duds. Terrible downer leaving the ballpark.

[Jays24]

Don't worry folks, Vogelbach is here to watch strike 3 down the middle

[BigCecil]

Should have taken the easy out of Silverbach at 1B. 2 run lead.

I saw the Jays get absolutely lambasted at Yankees stadium a few years back. That absolutely sucked. Fun to go to the park, but that wore off quick when the Jays started booting the ball around and giving up bombs. Hard to feel good when your team can't even do the simple things, like catch and throw.

[keggy]

Diaz made the correct decision with Vogelbach running, it just went to s***.

[Jays24]

You have got to be kidding me... f*** you Springer

[BTS]

It remains absurd that Springer gets the most PA of anyone on the team

[Delgalladay]

And the guy that has no business batting leadoff ends the inning
