    Jays just need to relax a bit. A bit too aggressive. El Capitan knows the deal.
  2. John_Havok
    Why? You're better than this.

    There is absolutely zero justification for Dickerson hitting leadoff. Even ignoring the fact that he's likely the 8th or 9th best hitter in the lineup at the best of times... he has the biggest hole in his swing at the top of the zone against velocity. Always has had that hole in his swing. Always will. Cole lives at the top of the zone with premium velocity. Dickerson is 4 Swinging Ks waiting to happen unless Cole makes massive mistakes, which is not something you would plan on or think "well maybe if Cole pitches like crap this guy hitting leadoff will pan out... " Garbage managing from a garbage manager.

    It would be incredibly fun though, to watch all those old writer's heads explode if Vlad actually does win the triple crown, and then don't vote him as MVP. The entertainment it would cause would be tremendous.
  5. John_Havok
    Nice recovery.
  6. John_Havok
    Always nice to see Chuckles take out his ace, who is dealing, only at 80 pitches, for a reliever to come in and start missing the zone with everything

    f*** Springer….gift the error right back to them
  8. John_Havok
    Wow, yanks are an error factory today. Gotta get at least 1 here
  9. John_Havok
    Springer doesn’t look good, every swing he’s bending and stretching something. Definitely not ideal
  10. John_Havok
    Yeah, statistical anomalies are fun

    Might have been traded or released since the jacket became a thing?
  12. John_Havok
    Nice, Nate strikes out the side. A few more of those low leverage situations and he might be ready for something a bit more important
  13. John_Havok
    Oh you can’t do that….that’s a HR jacket, pitchers should have their own. The juju on that jacket is now gone.
  14. John_Havok
    It’s a bit of both because actual results can vary widely from pitcher to pitcher dong the exact same thing because of those things that are not in the pitchers control. The perfect example is Matz vs Ray in August. Both pitchers had very good ERAs, but only one of them actually pitched well.

    No kidding, I hit send, switched back to the game and first pitch after hitting send was the double, lol
  16. John_Havok
    Didn’t think I’d be tuning in in the 5th to see a no hitter in progress with an 8 run lead.
  17. John_Havok
    True. But they’ve also gone 7-3 n their last 10 and made up exactly….0 games.
  18. John_Havok
    I also went to Costco after it was 8-2…. Though I hadn’t realized they came back until this morning, which was a very nice surprise. Still doesn’t mean Manoah shouldn’t have pulled after 5 Chuck, I still want you fired.
  19. John_Havok
    Nice Grichuk, probably an irrelevant play at the end of the day, but good f***ing job.
  20. John_Havok
    Like wtf Charlie. Your entire pen is rested and this is a must win game….f***ing joke to leave Manoah in there when it’s so blatantly obvious he was struggling with everything. I get the train of thought that you want him to try and get through the bottom of the lineup, maybe,..but after the lead off walk…that should have been it. Fire this f***ing clown already please.
  21. John_Havok
    Too late. A f***ing blind man could see Manoah shouldn’t have been in there
  22. John_Havok
    Manoah has to come out…like now. He’s not even close right now. Whatever has him off, he needs to get out before he walks the bases loaded for the top of the lineup….which of course means Charlie would put in our worst reliever to give up a bases clearing double.
  23. John_Havok
    Depends on the type of pitcher. Guys like Ryu would likely be done a great disservice as the hitters would be less likely to offer at the borderline pitches with 2 strikes, which the human umps get wrong a lot more often than balls in the zone. It will all come down to how the zones are programmed for each hitter, and how much data the teams are going to be eligible to get after the games.
  24. John_Havok
    Of course. They were leading baseball prior to this cold stretch at .282 A two week cold stretch does not define a season.
  25. John_Havok
    You might want to look up the MLB stats on RISP. Jays are hitting .267 with RISP, which is 3rd in MLB trailing the #1 and #2 places teams who are at .271 (Houston and Washington)
