Nah, now more delusional Leafs fans are going to think they're winning the Stanley Cup next season 😂

Don't worry, Dubas's long lost twin will lead us to the promised land!

Most people understand Barger is young, has upside, and could absolutely give the team a boost. Nobody is saying the opposite. But pointing out that there are still flaws in his game, or that expecting a sophomore slump is reasonable, isn’t “wishful thinking” or negativity. It’s just a realistic assessment of a young player who still has to adjust as the league adjusts to him.

Some posters seem to take any criticism of the Jays’ roster construction, development, or young players as if it’s a personal insult. That’s where these discussions go sideways. You can be optimistic about Barger and still acknowledge that there are legitimate concerns. Those two things aren’t mutually exclusive.

The problem isn’t people being excited about him. The problem is acting like any cautious or critical opinion automatically means someone is cheering against the team.

Noone said he didn't have flaws. Nobody suggested he was an elite, absolutely can't miss player who will transform the lineup.  A fan of the Blue Jays just optimistically said he thought Barger would help the offense.  Telling him that's just wishful thinking is just utter nonsense. End of story.

Watching you jerk off your uncle is gross 🤣 Almost everything he says is negative drivel.  The organization is in the best shape it's been in the last 30+ years.  We were inches away from a championship. If you can't be optimistic about this organization right now - GTFO!

Jays looking mentally defeated.  Tough loss 

It's hard to see. I imagine this one stings a lot.  They knew the expectations going into the year and it's probably really starting to weighing on them.

So elegantly put, Why are you such an angry person?
