Collins DHing today would make decent sense if we hadnt just sat through 2 games of Tapia getting starts in the OF. Like, with what a normal person would do with this lineup, 1 game out of 4 with Collins as a DH is at least defensible. It's not defensible when your better hitters are getting the same amount of starts as the scrubs. Biggio not playing today (barring an injury we don't know about) makes no sense. -
even Biggio as a DH would be preferable. Dude still projects to be league average. The floor of the lineup drops so much with guys like Collins, Tapia etc getting starts over Biggio.

Really hope this DH shuffling doesnt get out of hand. Already seen Tapia get more starts than he should get over 3 weeks and now Collins in there. Kirk and Jansen should both be in the lineup every day with one as the DH, expecially with a 3rd catcher around to be the emergency fill in if the starter gets hurt and you dont want to lose the DH spot. I would move Chapman up a slot or two also, though that's not much more than hair splitting. He's just too good to be in 7th behind Gurriel and Kirk.

General Blue Jays Discussion Thread (2022)

Meh, i'll fight anyone who wants it. Yonge and Bloor at midnight. -
Yeha. By no means was he great of course, but so many calls that could have gone his way didn't, and when you force the soft tossers to throw meatballs to get stirke calls, they get hit around. I didn;t really see a problem with Jansen's framing either. That many missed calls is just an umpire that has very obvious holes in how he calls balls and strikes.

General Blue Jays Discussion Thread (2022)
John_Havok replied to Grant77's topic in Toronto Blue Jays Talk
Maybe they do, maybe they don’t. 3 games isn’t evidence of anything one way or the other. One thing is glaringly true though. You’re a f***ing idiot. -
No reason for Tapia to have started 2 out of 3 games…that’s just stupid.
-
Doesn’t mean he didn’t just make 2 bad throws.
-
Manoah will be starting Game 1 of the ALCS at this rate
-
Lol, ryu can’t catch a break. Yeah some hard contact here but two straight wrong throws by gurriel, seeing eye single and now he gets hit by a grounder….
-
Can we just stop throwing the cutter please? It’s garbage
-
That Vladdy HR was absurd
-
Anyone have Jansen as the Jays HR leader by game 3?
-
Just turned 19…
-
I will not. He looks like late stage Freddie Mercury.
-
Love your arm Romano, but that 'stache has got to go. That's wrong on every level.
-
Hate to defend it, but it was Tapia... that was going to be the best case scenario. If they let him swing it would have been a force out at 2nd and Tapia at 1st.
-
Its the easiest change in the world too, just a tiny bit of interaction from the umps with even the most basic explanation goes along way.
-
So many balls beaten into the ground in front of home plate today. it's an epidemic
-
god this ump sucks, his strike zone is 5 inches wider on each side. Is this Joe West dressed up and just goofing on everyone?
-
2 on Teoscar now... i ,mena, given the situations they were i dont think they were intentional, but... he's gonna get pissed.
-
WTF vladdy... get that ball in the air....
-
Wind must have got that one too
-
im shocked. Tapia hit a grounder.
