    Ross is eating dinner tonight at Harbour 60 - I know the hostess at the front desk, she can get you a table right next to his.

    Big series win against the Cats. Keep it rolling against the Cards this weekend!

    Lodolo could be a nice buy low. Kinda remind me of when the Jays went out and traded for Robbie Ray at the trade deadline - during the season he was struggling, though showed previous success during some seasons in Arizona. Lodolo kind feels like that.

    Well you're blaming him for guys like Bieber who has been on the IL for majority of the season and Scherzer who pretty much we already knew is toast. Gausman had his struggles in June but he's turned things around from the looks of it. Yesavage hasn't really under performed. He's had some awful outings where he has lost control - BB/9 is an area he has to work on if he wants to take the next step. Occasional struggles come with any young starter. Expectations from the Postseason set the bar really high and I even admit expected Yesavage to pitch like a Paul Skenes right out of the gate, but those were unfair expectations and his minor league track record never suggested that.

    How about Dylan Cease, Spencer Miles, Louis Varland, Tyler Rogers, and even Jeff Hoffman's bounce back? Can't blame Walker for Bieber sucking and not being 100%, or Yesavage who yes has had some growing pains as you expect from any young starter. Gausman had a rough stretch there for a bit but seems to have come out of it.

    Nats bullpen sucks. Let's hope for a comeback!!!!!

    We needed that slash line from Vladdy this season FFS!

    Good time to buy low in the LOD.

    They need to be getting him in the lineup more frequently, even with Kirk back. He needs to get consistent AB's at least 4-5 days per week.
  13. jaysblue
    I don't think Bieber is 100%. Something isn't right. Likely an IL stint coming up.
  14. jaysblue
    I would have said "huge loss" but when you look at Vlad's numbers this season, shouldn't be tough to replace him if its an extended absence lol.

    Jazz, Tatis, Riley, and Merrill as well. Tatis is starting to hit better as of late at least.

    Some CF's who could be moved perhaps: Bryon Buxton Oneil Cruz Steven Kwan Tristian Peters Jake McCarthy Lawrence Butler Luis Robert Jr. Dylan Crews Colton Cowser Jacob Young TJ Friedl Esteury Ruiz

    Big moves like that could really light a spark under some of the guys in the clubhouse. Even if it doesn’t work out this season, acquiring Skubal would give you an exclusive negotiating window before free agency, while adding Miller would potentially create the best bullpen in baseball next season with Miller, Varland, Rogers and Hoffman. As crazy as it sounds, it could make sense as part of a retool for 2027 if you can sign Skubal to an extension haha.

    Let's hope he increases his trade value with another good showing like last week.

    I never said pitch usage was irrelevant. The point is that you’re treating it as the entire explanation while dismissing the psychological side as a “narrative.” Poor outings outside the ninth only prove the inning isn’t the sole issue - not that closing pressure plays no role. You can’t throw just any reliever into a save situation and pretend there’s no mental difference between protecting a lead in the ninth and pitching in an earlier inning. Some pitchers handle that pressure without issue; others clearly don’t. At the end of the day, I think we can both agree that Hoffman has pitched much better since moving out of the closer’s role, while Varland has continued to do an excellent job taking over the ninth inning. Whatever the reason, the Blue Jays’ bullpen is in a much better place now than it was in April and early May, which we can both applaud.

    Pretending the mental side of the game doesn’t exist is incredibly simplistic.

    Jays bullpen at the end of games with Hoffman/Rogers/Varland like damn! We just need some of our starters to go a bit deeper and pick up the slack like Bieber & Yesavage and maybe if we could score around 5 or so runs a majority of the time, things wouldn't be that bad geez!
  23. jaysblue
    I still believe!

    He was already at 75 pitches in the third inning.
