Lukes hitting a home run and then getting benched the next day is hilarious.

Lukes hits a home run and is rewarded with a seat on the bench

This team really does hate hitting for power doesn't it?

I f***in told you guys lol

Even at .500 we are off to a good start with this schedule

The power will regress to the mean and when it does we should be able to pair it with good team AVG and OBP to score enough runs for our elite defense and good pitching

If we can get to the trade deadline while in contention we can trade for more power then

Need to nip this losing streak in the bud though or the "good start" won't be so good anymore

 

 

They’re only gonna trade for more power if they think they need it, which unfortunately this FO seems to think isn’t actually a need.

[Terminator]

Risked my board reputation (which is literally the only thing I have going in my life after my 3rd divorce was finalized last week) on a pro-Nathan Lukes take earlier today and the Jays don't even put him in the lineup tonight 🤦‍♂️

Bassitt would have to suck a lot for the rest of the year to end up at 2 WAR. He already projects for like 3.5

Bassitt's start has been amazing, but unrealistic to expect he maintains that trend.

I said this prior to the season, come out at .500 after this month and it's gravy, whether we mix it right is another story. Hah!

Unrealistic to expect Chris Bassitt to win the Cy Young? Nah 

[G-Snarls]

Their ground balls get through but ours don't 

f*** 

[Spanky99]

[Spanky99]

Nice turn.

Sweet job by Francis getting out of that mess.

[Spanky99]

Wow... Bassitt actually knows what he's talking about, who knew?

This schedule was emphasized by the team.

[Laika]

Have to love hard lineouts 

[Terminator]

I hate this sport

[Omar]

Bowden can't hang em like that.  Sheeeittt.

[hanton]

Player Barger everyday and he makes that catch

[Brownie19]

Game over 

[HomeRunHomer]

Lucky that was hit to center.

[hanton]

[Laika]

3-0 so we just need like 15 singles now no problem

1 run scored in a tiny ass ballpark. You can’t be swept by this Astros team:

This series is exactly what everyone saw coming when the pitching has a few bad games, and the offense doesn't show up...at all. 

Complete and utter unwatchable trash

You know Vlad is good for at least one so only 14 more to go

[slips96]

Are we ever going to hire a hitting coach that has a clue about hitting?

[Spanky99]

Ball 4 idiot.

[Terminator]

What the hell is Taters swinging at lol, that ball was 2 feet off the plate

[bronson44]

Take the f***ing walk

[PitaBaby]

Come on Georgie.

[Spanky99]

That was a hanger, damn.

 

[Spanky99]

Attaboy Georgie, put the team on your shoulders!

[hanton]

Vlady is slow as f***
