When was the last time we actually had a lefty bopper?
Justin Smoak? Michael Saunders? I guess Belt counts. Colby Rasmus??
This front office has been abysmal at addressing the LHH weakness
Conspiracy theory:
Ross watched the interview and didn’t like it, brought Bassitt to the principal’s office and told him to smarten up and walk his comments back or he’s getting shipped to Sacramento in the offseason
Bassitt:
“The team has some problems and they’re unfixable. I won’t say what they are.”
Next day:
“The problems are Gausman, Berrios, Bo and Romano”
Loll ok then
Yeah it is a dumb argument, which is why its stupid for Laika to say people are flat-earthers for not agreeing with him.
People gotta speak with less finality on here. Everyone acts like they have secret insider info and their opinion is the correct one.
You're simple-minded and that's fine. But you're likely wrong. If you listen to the full segment it seems more directed at the front office.
But I understand if you have a 5-minute attention span you probably didn't get the full picture.
It seemed to me he was alluding to the front office IMO.
Or just the fact that he knows players don't really wanna sign with Toronto because Canada Bad
The fact that he feels there are "unfixable" problems in the Org is a bit alarming. Seems to go on to say he respects the coaches and players but dislikes certain people in the front office...
So. Who are the guesses for "problem people" in the FO right now? Is it Atkins? Shapiro himself?
Yariel kinda looks like Kikuchi IMO. Good stuff, but loses control at times and gives up a lot of HR.
Not necessarily a bad thing, we just need him to build his innings and improve his control just a bit.
