    Wow huge break for the Jays.

    Why didn't Vlad let it go? Would have been a K.

    Garcia has been incredible this season. Top of the O's order and you had confidence that he could get out of it, and he did.
  4. glory
    Man, Jimmy is awesome.

    I think that's the annoying part of the 2023-24 Jays. Springer not calling Vlad off is going to play huge here because the team can't score to save their lives. Defense has to be perfect every game. Of course, pulling your best starter in the 5th inning on 88 pitches when he's dominating and the pen aside from Jimi and Romano is ass cheeks doesn't help either.

    JS not getting himself tossed there is some weak s***.
  7. glory
    That’s the thing, I don’t mind pulling Kikuchi with Mountcastle up but not in the 5th inning when you only have 2 good relievers.
  8. glory
    Are they seriously pulling Kikuchi with 88 f***ing pitches and pitching this well for Pop?
  9. glory
    Cavan Biggio with tears in his eyes watching that KK at bat.

    Vlad and Bo being dangerous again definitely changes the dynamic of the lineup, especially now that they've conceded that DS is a starter, and Jansen is getting the bulk of the catching time.

    Acquiring Chisholm works in multiple ways as it would make Mattingly's head explode and maybe Donnie would resign immediately after.

    July 2025 at the earliest.

    There was an organizational shift in 2023. Something drastically changed within with the org with the way they viewed offense, both in the Majors and Minors, and I have no idea who the culprit(s) is or was. It's like Atkins saw what happened in Game 2 of the Seattle series and said "we aren't Guardian enough", and proceeded to model the entire org around Cleveland except without Jose Ramirez and with a $100m rotation rather than developing it internally.

    AA in 2015 was more “analytical” than AA in 2013. Either that or he just got better. Going from “building a track team” or whatever Beeston described it as when they acquired Reyes and Bonifacio to getting JD, Martin, Saunders (pre injury), Travis, etc, was a pretty big shift. AA is obviously smarter now after LA, but in hindsight after seeing what Atkins has done, I think even pre-LA Alex would have done as good or better had he stayed. Which is more an indictment on how disappointing Shatkins has been (especially from an analytical and player development standpoint) than longing for AA.

    Agreed. Considering Turner can’t hit righties anymore (decline started last season and gotten worse so far this year), they could easily find a way to get Horowitz into the lineup a few times a week against RHP. I get that he has options and they are just using it to their advantage but I agree there is something slimey about keeping a 26 year old in AAA when he has nothing left to prove there and rostering a fat slob with no value who plays the same position. I’m not even a Horowitz fan but he could potentially help the big league team if used properly.

    Man, I know Kirk is fat and slow, but not being able to beat that grounder for a pro athlete is ridiculous.
  17. glory
    Back spasms according to Twitter. Damn, dude just can't stay healthy for any prolonged period of time.
  18. glory
    Atkins looks like a nerd. That's probably why we all assumed that he would be analytically driven. It's the furthest thing from the truth in reality.
  19. glory
    Tonight's 5-9 in the order: Vogelbach, Kirk, IKF, Biggio, Clement. Unless Jansen is hurt, it's criminal that they are not using him at the DH spot. This is going to be a long season folks.
  20. glory
    Ohtani is getting in the HOF regardless, IMO. His prime was literally unmatched by any baseball player that ever lived, especially considering the context of how baseball has changed since Ruth's time. Even if he doesn't rack up the counting stats, he's a lock.
  21. glory
    I really hope Springer bounces back because otherwise we are going to see Joe Carter 1997 leading off every game until 2026.
  22. glory
    Sucks that Manoah is going tomorrow so this might be short lived but man it feels good to see a game like this again (assuming the Jays hold on). Usually when the Jays are down 3-0, it’s easy to give up. Being down 7-1 and coming back is great to see.
  23. glory
    DS better play every single game from here on out. He got enough rest days in April.
  24. glory
    It will never happen but they really need to consider calling up Horowitz and running a Horowitz/Turner platoon. Turner’s splits against RHP are progressively getting worse and he’s nearing 40. That’s probably the best way to optimize the DH spot at this point.
  25. glory
    It depends on what kind of year Jansen has. If it's another good offensive season with 250 PA because he couldn't stay healthy, then he'll definitely have suitors but it won't be a huge bidding war. If he finally gets 450-500 PA and hits like he has since 2021, then I'd imagine it would be a reasonably high AAV with a 3-4 year term. Hard to say. His injury history definitely complicates things. The Jays really should have extended him after Moreno was traded.
