General Blue Jays Discussion Thread (2022)
jaysblue replied to Grant77's topic in Toronto Blue Jays Talk
This has been my issue with the team this season. They're wasting ABs on players like Tapia especially when hitting him at the top of the lineup. He shouldn't be playing this much even now with Biggio and Merrifield here. If Tapia is in the lineup, he should be batting at the bottom. Like you said, a team like the Blue Jays who are trying to contend for a Wildcard spot shouldn't be playing him as often as they have, especially when he also hurts you in the field as well. If the Jays miss out by one game again, it's because of the organizations incompetence when it comes to roster utilization and construction. I hope next season this front office realizes that guys like Springer are fragile and they need some adequate roster depth behind him and others. During the offseason, bring in a solid 4th OF who could play all OF positions and who wouldn't hurt you if he has to play for an extended period of time. -

Awful lineup today. Tapia shouldn't be batting leadoff. Shouldn't also have both Tapia and JBJ in the lineup. Shouldn't be sitting your starters against an ace like Gerrit Cole. I understand Springer since he's injured, though Lourdes or Merrifield should be out there or heck even Biggio who has 2 HR's off of Cole. -

Billy Hamilton will be leading off soon once the Blue Jays sign him! -
I might do the year subscription. Pay the one time and it's like getting two months free. Depends on how much sports I'll watch during the winter and spring next year. At least I'll get a lot of US Open coverage over the next two weeks which is why I'm thinking of getting it. In the winter, at least will have the Leafs, Raptors, some NFL games, CFL games and also the World Cup in November/December. So it's pretty much like Sportsnet Now. So you get all 5 TSN Channels?
-
I'm thinking of signing up for TSN Direct. It's $200 for the whole year.

One of my favourite spots! I've been both times when I was in town. They're actually a lot of cool restaurants/bars around Cleveland, especially on East 4th Street. It's not as bad of a city as people make it out to be. I've always had fun when making a weekend trip both times catching the Jays or Raptors.
-
Blue Jays still haven't played on Sunday Night Baseball yet. I know it'll never happen because ESPN only wants US markets, though with the Jays current roster of young talent, you think they would put Toronto vs. New York or Boston one Sunday night.

Just make your password LetsGoBlueJays2022!

Likely not renewing MLBTV next season. Don't see the point. Blue Jays games are blacked out and some games are streamed on YouTube or AppleTV. Sportsnow App is the best bet for the entire year. Can watch every Jays game and they always air either the Yankees, Red Sox or Dodgers.

That's why its so crucial to take advantage of these years, especially 2023. No messing around. -
Meh, I think Kadri can age well into his mid-to-late thirties. A lot of veteran hockey players can still play at a high level above 35. As long as he doesn't have any ongoing injury issues, he'll be fine.

Spanky would make the best manager!

There goes the Browns season.

Andrew Miller or Drew Pomeranz would be fantastic! -

I said this a couple of weeks ago. Doesn't hurt to try. -
Would be nice to see both Pujols and Wainwright back again next season with the Cards.

Could be the next Marco Estrada for the Jays. If you can get 2.5 WAR from Strip every season, that's great! -

Geez man get a sense of humour. Stripling with the Dodgers was always a decent back-end starter who could work between the rotation and bullpen and provide a team with rotation depth if someone went down and not hurt the team by being in the rotation for a month or two. He definitely has earned the opportunity to be a full time starter moving forward after the season he is having. Don't make it seem like Atkins pulled a miracle by trading for the guy. I'm all for giving him a reasonable extension for 2-3 years as a No. 4 or 5 starter, though nothing crazy. I bet if Stripling was on another team, you would be saying his season has been a fluke thus far. Your Mike Wilner homer side is showing well yet again! -
Yeah like you said, even if you scrap cable which most have, you're probably paying more if you have subscriptions to all these streaming services. Android Box is a good substitution for cable. Just need to buy the box and it's $15 per month and you get pretty much every single channel worldwide almost haha. I only have Netflix, Prime Video (because of my yearly Prime Membership), Paramount + (for South Park and only $5.99 per month and there is a lot of other content), MLB TV and a yearly subscription to Sportsnet Now (in order to watch Blue Jays games). I'm thinking of getting rid of MLB TV for next season since Blue Jays games are blacked out anyways, and Sportsnet also airs Yankees/Red Sox games or some late night west coast Dodgers games. As a Browns season ticket holder, there are some perks. Have free access to NFL Red Zone and NFL + and a free Madden 23 download haha. Gotta look into them. I'm sure I get special perks as well with Bills season tickets, have to check.
-
Yeah definitely can pay for gas money haha. It's easy to make a day trip out of it for Buffalo. For Cleveland would have to stay overnight most likely, make it a weekend. Only was is if it's a Sunday 1PM game, leave really early Sunday morning and come back later that night, though that's a lot of driving just for one game haha.
-
You gotta hope that pub has an Amazon Prime Membership haha.
-
Plan every season is to go to 1 or 2 games in Cleveland and sell the remaining games. Make a weekend out of it. Would be nice if I could pair a Guardians game one weekend as well. Probably would go to 3-4 Bills games since they're closer. Browns and Bills season seats are very reasonable especially for upper bowls. With Cleveland, was able to sell all my games last season above my cost. First year with Bills tickets, so we'll see how they work out. If the Bills ever hosted KC or Tennessee in the Playoffs, that would be sick!
-
I'm an Amazon Prime Member though that's ridiculous. These streaming services are starting to get into sports now like Apple TV and YouTube with baseball. It's annoying.
-
Also, have Browns season tickets as well haha. Sec 535, Row 26. Third year I've had them.
-
Told ya it was a great day to bet huge money on the Jays haha.
