    They need another one other than Clement?
  2. John_Havok
    I mean, he's probably a nothing burger long term,but how many catchers does the complex team even need? Besides, he doesnt even have to change anything other than when to show up at the park.
  3. John_Havok
    If he hit ball in the exact same gap with the bases empty in the top of the first he would definitely not have tried for third. To me, that rule is the exact reason it should have been scired a double. So, the fact that he was only doing it trying for the cycle shouldn't be a factor.

    Looking at some older video of Toman shows he has changed his stance a bit this season.prebuosuky he was standing very upright in the box whereas now he's leaning in and a bit more compact. The HRs he's been hitting lately aren't wallscrapers either, they've been big boy HRs waaay out of the park

    Hell, you could hit 5 singles in a row and not score. Single, single to RF with lead runner thrown out at 3rd and batter still at 1b, single to RF with lead runner thrown out at third again and batter stays at 1b, single, single. Bases loaded, 2 outs, 5 singles in a row, no runs. Vlad pops out to 3rd. That would be the single most 2026 Blue Jay inning i can imagine

    But all calls get reviewed after the fact by MLB as well amd may be changed. things get changed from hits to errors, errors to hits or triples to doubles + error just as a few examples. I doubt theyd change the scoring on that play since it resulted in a cycle, but... yeah it was clearly a double with advancing to 3rd on the throw. It was the left centre gap, Harper probably couldnt leg out a legit triple in the right centre gap unless it took a bad hop off the wall.

    Yeah, would be nice to see where rhe stuff is sitting. Probably give him a good 7-10 outings before even trying to judge though

    Tiedemann has survived another appearance. WS will be easy to make now
  9. John_Havok
    Not super interesting yet but the 22 year old Italian catcher they signed this year has 6 HR in his first 50 PA at the complex. He should probably be bumped up a level.
  10. John_Havok
    Came here to say almast exactly this, but i'd have used far more insults and expletives Every team in baseball gets nuked like 10-15 times every year. Easiest games in the world to just get over and move past.
  11. John_Havok
    4-5 with 2 doubles. HR and a single. Swinging a hot bat for sure
  12. John_Havok
    Yes, but his size still increases injury risk over and above the usual catcher injury risk. So far we havent seen that extra risk turn into anything, but it's still there

    He is now. Sent Dallas down and called up Little to get another lefty for this series. Fluharty has pitched in back to back games now so its probably a prudent move. Lets just hope he's figured at least a little something out
  15. John_Havok
    I mean, every catcher is typically a higher injury risk than other players so trying to your backup into more games as a DH probably isnt a great way to keep him as healthy as possible to cover for the current starting catcher who's even more injury risk thanks to his eating habits. That, and if this team is going to go anywhere it needs Springer to get right. He can't do that on the bench
  16. John_Havok
    I just heard half the message board have aneurysms
  17. John_Havok
    Cool info. I like it
  18. John_Havok
    He ate 7 of them. That had to be enough.
  19. John_Havok
    He needs healthy starters more than aything. How lomg were they basically bullpenning 2 out of every 5 starts because only 2 starters were healthy and the other was Lauer?
  20. John_Havok
    Friendly tip, put that guy on your ignore list. It'll save your baseball IQ points
  21. John_Havok
    Just the owners trying to spend less in the draft again. NCAA loves this idea for sure though
  22. John_Havok
    Dub Gleed up to AA from Vancouver, has 3 games there now. King was allowed up to 89 pitches in his start yesterday in Vancouver. Wasnt super efficient as he only lasted 5 innings and gave uo 3 ER, but only 1 walk vs 7 Ks so still a decent battling outing
  23. John_Havok
    Obviously I have no idea what has or hasnt been said to Vlad by Schneider or Popkins or whomever, bit i would hope that some form of tough love has been tried. Like...piss him off a bit and see what happens. Publicly, of course you have to support him and say all the cliches about fighting through it and how hes a veteran and he'll figure it out, hes just one adjustment away from being himself...and all that s***. But, privately Id want to rip his head off and just say "listen dipshit, we're paying you 500 million dollars for the next 10 years, play like you f***ing deserve it...ass"
  24. John_Havok
    This would be the very definition of ret*rded. Id fire my GM if he even brought this trade to me to get approval.
  25. John_Havok
    It's one of those situations where you're thinking... damn, about time the Jays get a kid that can olay a corner infield spot that has pop and could actually be a regular. Kind of seals the death warrant on Springer coming back next season as DH if Keys can play 3rd though, since Okamoto would likely be the primary DH in that scenario. It would be massively helpful to the payroll if they could get some more regulars at league minimum in the next few seasons.
