  1. Montoyost it is. Sac bunts, s***** hitters leading off, “playing the game the right way”. Old school time.
  2. Charlie Buntoyo. Ned Montoyost. Let’s come up with a nickname for our sabermetric guru.
  3. That lineup with Vlad at 3B and Biggio at 2B actually looks above average, or am I crazy?
  4. No reason to have Stro pitch the 9th. At all. Luckily he was out by 109 pitches but it’s a 4 run lead and you just burned your best reliever rather than starting the inning with Tepera who was warming up in the previous inning anyway. Montoyo was in the Rays org for that long but resembles Ned Yost more than Kevin Cash. Nice win though.
  5. Stroman throws 5 pitches, 3 of them hit the strike zone on Gameday, but 4 balls and 1 strike were called. I ain't staying up for this. Laz Diaz can EAD.
  6. Good. I like Shatkins, but this is the one time I hope everyone bashes them. They deserve every bit of it.
  7. Did Gameday glitch or was that strike 3 on Teoscar really 5 feet outside?
  8. Seriously, Shatkins deserve to get bashed for this. I've never seen a front office so determined to not call up their young superstar even after they got the extra year of control. Vlad was ready for the Majors last year. It's bad enough they made him wait for 2019 (which is understandable given the rules), but now they have to prolong it even longer because......reasons. It's ********.
  9. I'll believe it when I see it. Has a future elite player ever been treated this like? I don't mean held back for service time reasons, that happens a lot, but held back even after the service time limit has passed? Seriously guys, he's yours for 2025. That was the whole point of this. Bring his ass to Oakland and play him on the big league team already.
  10. Khris Davis got a good deal. The market hates two things: players in their 30's and DH's. He's both. Smart of him to take the deal now. An extra year would have been better, but AAV wise he did well. Ten years ago he would have fared better but the market has changed too much.
  11. Yeah seriously, Vlad is one of the only reasons to watch the Jays this year. They got that extra year of control now, so just call him up as long as he's healthy. Waiting until a home game is such a pointless reason. Just call him up for the Oakland series, and spend all weekend hyping up that Tuesday would be his first home game. The unnecessary waiting is so stupid. DH him for a few of those games. Who cares. As long as he's up and in the lineup.
  12. Once again Samad Taylor sits so the suckage that is Logan Warmoth could start. I know he's a former 1st round pick and all but the guy is straight up ass as a hitter, and likely isn't good enough defensively to overlook that. Can't wait until he's flipped for some equivalent of 2018 Aledmys Diaz and we can all move on. The way Tercet feels about half the players in the Jays system is how I feel about Warmoth.
  13. There was nothing wrong with Anderson's "bat flip" (or toss). The game is already losing the young demo. They need more Anderson's, not more Grichuk's. It's one of the reasons why I have no issues with Stroman and wouldn't mind him extended. If Stro were in the NBA or NFL, and was as good in those sports as he is in baseball, then he'd be a mainstream star. His personality works today, even if it annoys some. He just happens to play a sport that wants its players to hold back their personality and isn't as mainstream. I have to watch "play the game the right way" as one of the team's vetrin's for the next 5 years? Ugh. Whatever. Hopefully Vlad's personality takes over.
  14. It's pretty much a given that the Jays will use openers this season, possibly a lot. Just depends on when. Injuries and ineffectiveness from their starters will speed up the process.
  15. I know I'm supposed to like Grichuk because he's a Jay, but if he's a Brian McCann "play the game the right way" type, then screw him. Keep pimping the homers, Tim.
  16. Pannone faced a batter last night, because LOOGY, but he'll probably be needed for 2-3 innings tonight. Can't wait for the 3 batter minimum.
  17. No command and hard hits allowed. Damn, I'm rooting for Thornton just because of the Keith Law stuff. Don't let that smug douchebag feel good about himself.
  18. I don't think much of DSJ, but Brito is not even on DSJ's level. Let's get serious here. You can say he's overachieving or a replacement level talent, but don't insult the dude by comparing him to Brito.
  19. Yes, unlike Brito and Hansen, you can dream on Teoscar's potential. If everything clicks for him he could turn into a decent big leaguer, but it would have to be everything clicking (2018 stat cast numbers + 2019 SSS plate discipline + average ish defence rolled into one). Or just make him the DH and let him focus on hitting and base running. I'd be fine with that too.
