    This is free on MLB TV today, just a heads up for anyone outside of sportsnet areas

    Yep. This is why its not on the FO for not getting it done. When 50% of the parties involved in a negotiation don't want to do it, the other 50% isn't at fault.

    I'm trying to imagine the piece of humble pie Vlad will have to eat of he has a 2-3 fWAR season. I mean, there's no doubt he would eat that slice and probably the whole pie, but..it would be entertaining. Problem is, that likely sucks for the Jays playoff chances unless everything else goes perfectly

    Don't look now but....

    I have a feeling if Atkins tried the McMahon walk he'd look like an even more gimpy version of young Forest Gump.

    Not a good pitch to swing at Heineman... damn

    I've said this from the beginning on instant replay. The only consideration that should be used by the replay room is "Can you definitively declare the runner/batter to be out?" If that answer is no, he's safe. End of replay.

    Yeah, but it's incredibly difficult to pick up wins against premium pitching trying to string singles together. You know that. Vlad and Santander specifically need to start hitting for power. It's nice that some unexpected pop from Gimenez has shown up, and Heineman, but they need it from the guys who are supposed to provide it too. Jays have the same amount of team HRs that the Yankees hit in 1 inning a game or two ago. That has to change.

    Its always nice when young players are willing to listen and negotiate on pre-FA extensions. Neither Bo nor Vlad ever were it seems.
  10. John_Havok
    100% this.
  11. John_Havok
    Possible, but that seems like trying to manage a problem that doesn't exist yet. I'm not a fan of that approach when you look at the downside of what might happen if the first game after the day off they also get shitcanned and have to blow out the pen again. Take it as it comes and don;t manage problems that don't exist is how I would go at it.

    Cowser out 6-8 weeks with a fractured thumb from, sliding into 1B like a moron.
  13. John_Havok
    Yeah, ive been watching the swing tracker during the games, Springer had the 3rd fastest swing out of anyone in yesterdays game at 81.8 mph on his lineout. He can still get the bat around just fine when he gets what he wants and takes his A swing. Problem was, with that swing he didn't barrel it and it only left at 75.4 mph.

    Ya know, this "lose one, win one, lose one, win one" s*** has to stop. The season is saved for now, but another loss and it's probably over again.
  15. John_Havok
    Just dont sprain your thumb, take a break and switch hands every now and then.
  16. John_Havok
    Horseshit non-strike call ump...
  17. John_Havok
    He certainly could. Dude throwing upper 90s with nasty breaking stuff.
  18. John_Havok
    lots of duck snorts falling in today... lol
  19. John_Havok
    Sandlin and Yariel wouldn't have been available. ...He could have used Little, but then Little wouldnt have been available today in a lefty heavy lineup. THe other trash cans had already been used. Who else should he have gone to?
  20. John_Havok
    Great look when your "best" hitters just stand there staring at strike 3....

  22. John_Havok
    Pretty sure Jimi has pitched the last two days.
  23. John_Havok
    Holy Heineman!
  24. John_Havok
    I like that he has that swing in his arsenal, as like a 2 strike approach or something, but not on a first pitch. He's probably the easiest hitter to pitch against. Just throw him inner half fastballs and the worst result you end up with is an oppo single, and most times it will just be a flyout.
  25. John_Havok
    To a point. Today its kinda like he was unlucky to get into trouble, and lucky to get out of it. He could just as easily have given up 6 runs. Walking the tightrope ...
