  1. Another scoreless inning or two from Tempura would be nice here.
  2. Wow that was a bad start. This is where not having a long man and going with Leone/Tepera instead of Bolsinger is going to hurt. Someone might get Neil Wagner'd tonight.
  3. Man, nothing is guaranteed at the Trop.
  4. Nice one pitch DP. Gibby 2.0 pulls Stro at the right time and brings in the right pitcher. The power of sabermetrics has taken over.
  5. Lol, the Trop is a s*** hole. No fans and a s*** stadium. Move them anywhere else.
  6. Seriously. Can play practically every position well and is useful offensively against lefties. Perfect utility player off the bench.
  7. Pearce hitting lead off tonight. The transformation to Gibby 2.0 has been good so far.
  8. That is definitely a concern. Only players under 30 are Travis and Pillar. I think they will be fine but age is not on our side with position players.
  9. The "singles or die" offence this series was furstrating as hell. Get the hell outta Baltimore. Oh wait, 4 at the Trop is next. Just great.
  10. The Jays have turned into the Royals minus the BABIP magic. Need 3 more singles.
  11. Britton is due to blow a save dammit.
  12. The 2013 deals were worse, but jury is still out on Norris, Boyd, and Hoffman as well. The JD trade was a no brainer, had no problems with that one, but the others were all suspect to varying degrees. Disagree about being able trade Tulo and getting value back like what the Jays traded originally. Great defensive player but old and expensive. Not sure how many teams would absorb that deal and give up good prospects in return.
  13. Great pen, hit home runs, and Bundy/Gausman are good. They'll be in the thick of it.
  14. O's are going to be good again. Bastards.
  15. Time to hit 4 singles in a row so the Jays can score again.
  16. O's hitting homers, Jays hitting singles. Ugh.
  17. I know, I'm not blaming Shatkins. It's going to take time to make the system better. That was my point. They have it on the right track.
  18. Tulo, Martin, and Pearce are hitting consecutively anyway. Just put Pearce in front of the other two.
  19. Two straight years without a pitching prospect anywhere near AAA, and exactly one position player prospect in Buffalo since Shatkins took over. Boy, they're going to have to pull back. So many prospects to promote and not enough big league positions to fill. Btw, system is probably middle of the pack. Once Vlad moves up and some of the other younger talent moves up, it will gradually improve.
  20. They should put Pearce behind Morales, followed by Tulo and Martin.
  21. Goins has somehow convinced two front offices, one that is big of sabermetrics, to think he's an MLB player. That's nuts.
  22. Teams can win and build a farm at the same time. It's not easy, and you have to eventually part with expendable prospects to add players in trades once you're high enough on the win curve to justify it, but AA hurt one to help the other. Eventually that is/was going to catch up to him. Shatkins did a good job keeping them a playoff team in 2016, and the 2017 team looks good enough to at least be a wild card team again, but still a long ways to go to clean the farm up.
