  1. Gibby would have tied Pete Walker in ejections in this series alone. Charlie is the biggest bitch I have ever seen in sports. Not just baseball.
  2. Cash stood up for his player, Pete Walker stood up for his player, and Charlie f***ing stands there like a scared kid.
  3. Pete Walker is awesome. Charlie is now apologizing for all the whole thing.
  4. That's why "overpay for 1 year of Noah Syndergaard" is still my favorite FA option.
  5. At least the Jays can hit Kiermaier now. I'm trying to look on the bright side.
  6. The biggest thing that went wrong this season was unrelated to the roster or to Buntoyo. It was the fact that the team spent four months away from Toronto. Can we quantify how many wins that cost them over the season? No clue, but I'm sure that impacted them negatively to some degree. A spring training facility, a minor league facility, and constantly having the sparse crowds cheer the other teams isn't the ideal situation. So it's probably more valid to blame the Canadian government for the team's April-August performance rather it is to point to bad luck or injuries (compare the Jays injuries to other teams). In the grand scheme of things, the latter was way more on the Jays side. Hell, when both of their catchers got hurt, Reese f'n McGuire came in and BABIP'd his way into a solid season. Biggio got hurt, and suddenly Espinal was a 1.5 WAR player over 200 PA and even Valera has looked competent recently. I just don't see how the bad even comes close to the good.
  7. A lot more went right for the Jays than wrong. A lot more. Like, a ridiculous amount more. When 2 of your FA signings turn out to be a MVP and Cy Young candidate respectively, that's good luck. When your rotation stays healthy pretty much all season, that's good luck. No important player other than Springer missed time. The bullpen injuries involved Yates (signed him knowing he was hurt), Phelps (injury history), Chatwood (sucked after sticky stuff crackdown), Merryweather (lives on the IL), Borucki (not quite Merryweather but extensive injury history), etc, etc. This is why prior to this September run this was looking like such a disappointing season. So much went right that it would be a shame if they didn't at least make the WC game. Thankfully they've gone on a tear since then and hopefully they end up making the WC game, but I don't think it's fair to even compare what went wrong versus what went right. Apples and oranges.
  8. That's exactly how it played out. I refuse to believe Montoyo does anything other than crumble the moment someone confronts him.
  9. Wouldn’t surprise me if Montoyo apologized to Cash first.
  10. That ball 4 was actually a strike in Joe West's zone.
  11. At least West's incompetence is funnier when it happens to the Rays.
  12. Richards clearly not getting the Rays strike zone.
  13. Joe West is retiring after this season. No one will miss him.
  14. Kirk is either the worst framer of all time or the umpires really don’t like the Jays. Some of these calls are ridiculous.
  15. Plunk KK only when it won’t impact the game. No sense doing it this early.
  16. Ban cheat sheets while on the field. Seems like an easy fix.
  17. Has Montoyo ever gotten ejected? I don’t think he’s ever gotten out of the dugout to argue anything to my recollection. I honestly don’t know how the league continues to allow this umpiring to continue. It’s horrible for baseball and I’d say the same thing if the calls were reversed. No one pays to see the f***ing umps determine the outcomes of games. If robo umps aren’t part of the next CBA, then someone f***ed up.
  18. Ump screwed Valera in that AB but how the f*** did he get caught looking on a clear strike?
  19. Man that SN camera work for the last two pitches was straight trash.
  20. Sounds like Kirk got on base and Jansen came in to pinch run. Either way, it lead to Montoyo doing one of his favorite things, which is stapling Kirk to the bench.
