  1. Biggio has gone back to his passive plate strategy.
  2. Lynn is a good pitcher. Just like prime Mark Buerhle was. Now it's just his consistency at this point in his career that holds him back, but he'll still through the occasional game like today when everything is pinpoint. He loses even one more iota of control though and he's probably done.
  3. It's one of the things that is a big concern with using ABS at the MLB level. MLB wants the people watching to know the overlayed strike zone is the same one ABS is using. inside and outside is pretty much perfect on TV but the up and down is not.
  4. Keep telling you guys, dont trust the High and low on the TV strike zone. It's bad.
  5. KK and Varsho have the exact same hole in their respective swings.
  6. Wow, Kirk flew way open there and pulled so far off that pitch ... his timing is a mess.
  7. I emailed him. He wants that guy to send his resume in for the open hitting coach position. Feels he has a great grasp on... stuff.
  8. Luis Robert Jr as a trade target. Fits all the needs the Jays want, plus is cost controlled for the next 2 seasons for sure at 9.5m- possibly 4 if they pick up 20M options for 2026 and 2027. Feasible with what the Jays have for prospects to acquire? Would the Chi Sox even entertain moving him?
  9. I could eat that whole thing... and then die happy immediately after
  10. I'd let him sit in AA a bit longer. I'd want to get him to the point where the plate discipline AND the power are consistently showing up at the same time before declaring victory at AA. Only 4 extra base hits from June 10th to today. Plate discipline is incredibly improved though. The last thing the Jays need is another 80 raw power guy slapping singles the other way when he should be killing spectators in the Left Field stands with moonshots.

  12. Sometimes ya gotta make a guy fail to get him to realize what he has to fix. It's risky, but in this case it seems to have worked so far.
  13. Depends. Im sure some quotes could be found from some that might be interpreted as WS threats. They have been annointed one of the great organizations in baseball by some.
  14. They're hitting a bit of a speedbump right now. Since the Jays series they're 6-10 with a -30 run differential. On the season their run differential is worse than the Jays now and only 4 runs better than Boston. Regression has come. The parade is currently on hold.
  15. Lol, this line from Romano is ridiculous. 13 pitches. 2 4-seamers. 11sliders, 9 swings at the sliders…8 of them whiffs.
  16. Utter filth from Romano. Untouchable tonight
  17. Vladdy with an oppo taco! Ltbf +2+1
  18. July 4 Bichette - 1 Point - John_Havok Vladdy 2 Points - LetTheBallFly Varsho - 2 Points- Dylan, Spanky Springer - 2 Points - JaysAllMighty Belt - 2 Points - Omar Chapman - 3 Points - Wilko Jonn Kirk - 4 Points - WryNGinger Merrifield - 6 Points Kiermaier - 7 Points - JaysBlue Off the bench: 10 Points
  19. He's absolutely on par or better than Pillar prime. He's a tier below KK
  20. I know Ive fallen for some of these parody accounts in the past, but this one was way too obvious LOL
  21. Running game is more controlled by the pitchers anyways. I wonder how front offices measure game calling abilities. I think for the Jays it feels like Jansen calls a better game, but i would have no idea how that is is quantified.
  22. The problem with Espinal getting in was that he still wasnt very good and didn't deserve to be there, not that he actually had a big first half. He had a big first month, then went MIA, then a big June. And big .... i mean big for him. His slash line when he was selected as a replacement was .271/.322/.394 with 6 HRs. Wow, what an amazing performance worthy of celebration as one of the stars of the season. I would absolutely rather see a guy who legit had a great 1st half out of nowhere in the all star game over a veteran who's just getting in because of a season he had 3 years ago, and just been kind of above average since.
