  1. Our team would have just stood there waiting for the home run. That's the difference between us and the Royals/Indians.
  2. The Indians are just unfairly good. Damn, hope Shapiro can build a team like that in Toronto.
  3. Jays confirm Gibbons will be fired by June next year, effectively wasting several months of next season because of their fear of change. Oh joy.
  4. Good season. Dump Gibbons and Bautista, keep Edwin, and let's have an even better season next year.
  5. LOL at everyone predicting a Miller choke. He's the AL version of MadBum. Good luck with that.
  6. What else is he going to say while Gibbons is busy (mis)managing a series?
  7. Yet another reason why I have the username I do. Thank goodness AA is gone.
  8. Bye, Jose! Thank you for laying the groundwork for this run back in 2010 and 2011. Screw you for becoming such a jackass once the team got successful. Have fun convincing some other team to overpay for your washed-up skill set. We need all the money we can round up to keep Edwin.
  9. Texas fans, maybe. Red Sox fans already were where we are right now, just last series. And they weren't exactly loving it.
  10. So did I... then a certain blowhard opened his mouth again.
  11. Pretty clear who the real stars and leaders of this team are, and Bautista isn't one. Sorry, casuals.
  12. Jose has some nerve talking s*** all series when he's washed up and we're down 3-1. At this point, I feel the same way about him that I felt about Price last year. Let some other sucker team overpay for him in the offseason. It's not like our offense isn't already a disaster with him. Shapiro needs to focus on getting Edwin resigned and ignore all the casuals who still think Jose is the Bautista of 2010-11.
  13. Why ruin all the new players in a rebuilding year by letting Gibbons "coach" them up?
  14. I will say this: if any team could match the 2004 Red Sox' comeback, it's this one. With the way our offense can pile up runs when they're on a hot streak, there's a chance. Not a good one, but still a chance.
  15. No way. Gibbons is on the same level as them, at best. We can do a lot better than him. Some fans are just scared of making a change because it's a risk.
  16. We can only hope he was just saying that to be respectful to Gibbons. Otherwise, we just replaced AA with an AA clone.
  17. Nice revisionist history. I've repeatedly given AA credit for the Wells trade, for fleecing Billy Beane on the Donaldson trade, and for bringing in Tulo. But the Napoli trade, the Mets trade, the Marlins trade, the Price trade and the Gibbons hire were all disasters, and his approach to free agency was incoherent. One minute, a hat was literally being passed around the locker room so the players could help pay for Ervin Santana, because any contract above 1 year/$0 was "bad value" to AA. (Somehow, paying in prospects for washed-up old players was "good value," though.) The next minute, AA was blowing $82 million on Russell Martin's choking ass. And let's also not forget about how he let Encarnacion walk to Oakland, only to luckily be able to bring him back. Overall, he did more bad than good for this franchise, and we're still dealing with the consequences.
  18. Gibbons is yet another example of how AA screwed this franchise. Again, even with the talent we have, we are very fortunate to have made the ALCS two years in a row. Thanks to the horrible decisions he made, this core still never had a prayer of going to the World Series.
  19. Not really. I've given Cleveland plenty of credit. They're the better team with the better manager.
  20. You are the saltiest poster on this board by far. Can you ever give credit to any team that isn't the Jays?
  21. At least Barajas only cost $1 million and we were only stuck with him for a year.
  22. AA handed that choke artist Martin an $82 million contract. Again, I'm so glad to be rid of that idiot. AA f***ed this franchise over in so many ways, it's amazing we even made the ALCS back-to-back with this core.
