  1. Yes, 1+1 does in fact = 2.
  2. They should do it similar to the NFL. Playoffs are still hard to make but doable. Also rewards the top teams with byes.
  3. One of the dumbest managerial moves I've ever seen occurred tonight. I actually didn't see it, I was working late so I saw the gamecast version. I couldn't really believe my eyes so if something weird happened, like Jansen tried a safety squeeze or something and I just didn't realize it please let me know. But we are tied 2-2 in the top of the 4th inning with one out and runners on 1st and 3rd. JC Romero entered the game 3 batters ago and gave up 2 singles and a HBP. Jansen steps up to the plate with runners on 1st and 3rd and 1 out. Montoyo has him bunt the runner over to second. That play dropped our win expectancy from 73 to 66.5%. Biggio steps to the plate with 2 outs now and hits a single. But Bichette then grounds out to end the inning. Did that really happen?
  4. Surprised that Montoyo isn't bunting Gurriel over to second to get that 2nd runner in scoring position. *Meant Teoscar. Lame joke fail
  5. According to fangraphs that bunt subtracted more Win Probability then any other out this game.
  6. How much did the run expectancy drop when we bunted?
  7. Wait Montoyo just bunted with 1 out already to get a runner to 3rd? What was the point of that?
  8. Yeah the Mariners schedule is probably slightly harder than ours.
  9. It's not time to panic about the playoffs yet. We are up 4 with only 10 games left, that's a pretty significant lead. Our magic number is down all the way to 7. The Jays are playing like absolute dog s*** but the Mariners are not a good team.
  10. We can't magically make his contract go away though.
  11. Lol this was a good one Jim
  12. He's definitely in a high risk category when it comes to COVID.
  13. Joseph has already been DFA'd but that still leaves Jansen, Kirk (who didn't need to be added yet for Rule 5 purposes), McGuire and then Moreno and Riley Adams have to be added. I suppose we could dump McGuire but I'm not sure that I'd be ready to after 45 ABs this year. But anyway, it's a good problem to have.
  14. It's a good move. C has been a huge hole for us and Kirk looked really good in ST. Creates a 40-man roster crunch for us next year. We are going to have like 5 catchers or something so we will need to make some moves but that can be done.
  15. We have a lot of multi-inning relievers too
  16. Atkins has been doing a very good job but the Roark signing from the moment the deal was announced reminded me of the Morales signing. Overall not that significant but a bad deal nonetheless. The Jays probably wouldn't have even have bothered with him if they knew they were going to get Ryu.
  17. People are too harsh on these old guys. Cito, Joe Carter, etc. (might as well lump them all together) are franchise legends. I don't give a s*** that current perceptions have revised their value/contributions downward. Cito managed back to back WS champs for a record setting attendance franchise. Joe Carter was pretty damn good for us until he turned 35 and he also has one of the greatest homers in baseball history. These guys were studs in their prime.
  18. Yeah not good. Hopefully Bo and Giles come back soon and everyone gets healthy for the playoffs.
  19. They said they wanted to keep him on some sort of a schedule so using him as a 2 inning opener for now might not be a bad idea. Could follow him with Ray as the primary pitcher.
  20. That sounds like a Manager of the Year to me
  21. I agree. Dusty Baker is a horrible tactician but by all accounts very good in the clubhouse. Plus he invented the high five and is a big proponent of tooth picks. Maybe in 20 years we will all be playing the bongos who knows.
  22. This thread is really quiet lately. Extend Montoyo.
