  1. At least Jerj Springer is 28 years old again Dead red statcast page
  2. The xSLG for Vlad and Bo matters but those are missing doubles, almost entirely. I can't recall either of them hitting any or many would-be homers that died on the track. Both are just slapping the RF alley and getting defended. There is a chance Santander is just a bum from now on. Ring the alarm bells, fire Ross.
  3. I just don't know where the Jays are going to find any pop. I guess Varsho coming back soon will help. I guess Barger could start getting to his power a bit more often if he gets some playing time. But that's about it internally. Bo is showing no signs of wanting or having the ability to hit for pull power anymore. Bo and Santander will start hitting more but a pair of 25 HR hitters is ho-hum, every team has that. Orelvis, Loperfido, Schneider, McAdoo... everyone in AAA and AA sucks from what I can see. Outlook, weak.
  4. 2024 - the Toronto Blue Jays almost never hit homers and they suck 2024-2025 offseason - Ross Atkins acquires and promotes multiple hitters who can barely hit the ball out of the infield 2025 - the Toronto Blue Jays never hit homers make it make sense!
  5. It's just a personnel thing, probably. It's tempting to blame Mattingly or the coaches but at the end of the day it is more likely a combination of these two things: The team being built around a few hitters who the organization thought were Power + Hit dudes who ended up aging into hitters with much less HR power than anticipated. This applies to Kirk and Bo, but also Vlad to some extent / from time-to-time. The team being filled in with hitters who don't hit for power. Clement, Roden, Wagner, Gimenez, Straw, Lukes... Those 2021 to 2023 teams featured guys like Chapman, Jansen, Semien, Teoscar, a younger George Springer. Simply put, the personnel had more pop.
  6. Max Meyer is an Ace now.
  7. Griffin Conine hit a ball 117.4mph this year Reminder, Toronto traded him for Jonathan Villar, one of the worst Blue Jays of all time. -0.7 WAR in 22 games.
  8. Probably not gonna be a watchable game today
  9. Hopefully Lucas can just limp through five innings Castillo isn't who he used to be.
  10. Paxton Schultz and Dillon Tate up. The Sandlin news is a tough one. Lat strain. Could be a while.
  11. You're a nutcase. Barnes tossed 1.2 clean inning on April 4th and had not pitched for a week before that. In context that series you were crying buckets about the decision to use Little against Soto, and you were slamming Fluharty like a n00b fan who had never heard of him. That is the context. Have a nice day buddy. Go curling with JaysBlue whydontcha
  12. Budgets are a thing Other than the Dodgers, no team in baseball has a perfect roster Meat!
  13. Must win game Easton Lucas' career will be defined by this performance. I've never flip flopped on an opinion in my entire life, I still believe in Santa
  14. Barnes wasn't even mentioned in the post sequence Lol you are an actual psychopath just like always. Welcome to the new board, Grant.
  15. Don't believe this is true. I said that about Little and Fluharty when you were complaining about them, like a dingus. Link A month ago I said Barnes blows and I don't get why he is here. Link
  16. Milking Rogers
  17. Not the reason we lost at all but it was just obvious that he has nothing tonight. Terrible fastball and doesn't even have an out pitch I could see so what's the point? I don't get it honestly
  18. K, DFA Barnes please he has absolutely nothing
  19. Romano getting Shrek'd again. His ERA is like 13.00 now. Edit: another homer. 15.26 ERA and has turned a blowout win into a nail biter
