  1. Blue Jays fans are delusional FFS. How are people still spending money to go see this team? What a f***ing joke! What a waste and f*** Rogers! Everyone needs to start boycotting this team because it's ridiculous the prices they charge for tickets and for concessions.
  2. What a f***ing disappointment that was! What a waste of time and money to go downtown today, pay for a ticket, beers and whatever! I'm out.
  3. If you want to build up an audience on Instagram or Threads, that could be interesting. Would be willing to help. Send me a DM.
  4. Yeah talking about the 3-4 WAR Freddie Freeman, not the 6-7 WAR version. Hosmer was such a disappointment geez. I hope you're wrong, but that is a very good comp unfortunately.
  5. I will be wearing my Bobby Witt City Connect jersey tonight, but will be cheering on the Blue Jays. It's my only time that I could wear this jersey, so have no choice. Or it's my Italian WBC Vinnie Pasquantino jersey haha.
  6. If anyone has tickets for tonight that they want to get rid of, let me know.
  7. Heck, I would even take Freddie Freeman production from 2024 onwards from Vladdy: Around 20-25 HR's, .290-.300 BA, .850 OPS and gold glove defense at 1B.
  8. There was probably a lot of pressure from Rogers to get Vladdy extended, especially after missing out on Ohtani, Soto and some of the other big-name free agents the previous offseason. I thought $500M was way too much at the time, but even then I never expected him to be this bad. At worst, I figured he’d settle in as more of a 3–4 WAR player like he was in 2022.
  9. Varland should be good to go tonight. If there’s a high-leverage spot, though, we’ll probably have to lean on Fisher. I’m not sure you want to push Rogers or Fluharty to pitch three days in a row, especially with no off-day tomorrow. Hopefully Spaghetti can give us 4–5 innings and SWR can cover another 2–3. If that happens, it would go a long way toward keeping the bullpen from getting completely burned.
  10. One of the worst wRC+ amongst anyone in baseball haha.
  11. Yeah it's tough to get excited about this team even if they do make the Postseason. Anything can happen in October, but this group doesn't feel special like the 2025 group unfortunately.
  12. Hopefully Yesavage gets back soon. And like you said, Scherzer actually wasn’t pitching that badly for a stretch. At this point, if he can just give us five innings and allow three runs each time out, I’ll take that every day of the week. I actually like Spaghetti too, and I’m interested to see whether Pete Walker can unlock a little more out of his arm. There’s definitely some potential there. The biggest thing is Vladdy needs to snap out of it. Then hopefully one or two other bats catch fire down the stretch - whether it’s Kirk, Lukes, Bateman, Sanchez, Okamoto, etc. We don’t need everyone hitting at once, but we desperately need a couple of those guys to get hot alongside Vladdy.
  13. Pitching wise their top 4 in the rotation have been able to stay healthy all season. Guys like Williams, Messick, Bibee, and Cantillo haven't missed any starts. They also added Foster Griffin at the trade deadline to upgrade over Cecconi. A healthy and durable rotation goes a long way over 162 games, especially when it comes to not overworking the bullpen every week. As for the bullpen, it's been more stable and its a bit deeper than Toronto's. They didn't have the issue like Toronto had in April with Hoffman and Little imploding. Cade Smith, Gaddis, Sabrowski, Holdermann, and Festa have all been reliable and not as overworked as Toronto's pen, which makes a difference. Offensively, they've been disappointing and you could even argue worse than Toronto's haha. J-Ram having a down season, Kwan was awful earlier on, and they've been running a slap-hitting infield of Rocchio, Bazzana, Martinez, Arias, and Schneemann for the most part. DeLauter has been solid when healthy (129 wRC+) and Adell was a nice addition at the deadline who could get hot and hit a bunch of HR's in bunches. Wild stuff indeed.
  14. Yeah, that rotation and bullpen is probably the best of any of the Wild Card contenders. They’ve already won six straight and are starting to create some separation between themselves and the rest of the pack. I also wouldn’t count Cleveland out of the division race. If the White Sox fade down the stretch and Cleveland keeps rolling the way they have, there’s a pretty realistic path for them to take the division.
  15. He's literally made of glass. Just make him a DH moving forward.
  16. We need Vladdy to do this.
  17. Yeah he should have kept his mouth shut and stopped complaining. Definitely a fool.
  18. Eric Lauer with the Dodgers: 7-1 record, 3.76 ERA, and 67 innings over 12 games (11 starts).
  19. Yeah agreed. If you're going to use him out of the rotation, this is the time. Sure you can limit him to 4-5 innings per start if they're worried about his innings.
