  1. Even if you don't think Gibbons is responsible for this team's collapse, he is still a s*** manager. Why keep one around when you don't have to?
  2. I'd argue they wasted a perfectly good season keeping him on board this year. I know this is AA's team and they probably did not want to rock the boat coming off the ALCS appearance, but the win curve won't be this high again for a while, and they wasted it with a nimrod managing it. You don't know when a chance like this will come around again.
  3. When the previous GM nukes the farm system to create a one year window with guys in their 30's, that's the reality of the situation.
  4. Shapiro and Atkins will fix this s***. It might take a few years, but I trust them. They did everything they could to prolong AA's little window as practically every pitching decision they made either worked out or was fixed when it failed (Storen), but the old ass offense couldn't hang.
  5. Unfortunately I am watching the Jays feed, and Buck/Tabler are either blind, ignorant, or both. It wasn't by much, but the replay showed that the throw beat Tulo's foot just barely. It was the right call by NY.
  6. Baltimore's pen in a Wild Card game scares the crap out of me.
  7. I don't get why Bautista isn't leading off. He was doing it before. Why not again? Just f***ing move everyone up in the lineup and bat Carrera last. I mean, come on.
  8. Saunders would accept the QO seconds after he found out it was offered. I'd pass. No team is going to lose a pick for him, and 1/17 is way too much money for him on a one year deal. Pearce would be good. Gomez would be good (though he may not be a buy low anymore with the way he is hitting for Texas). There are options.
  9. According to the imbecile who manages this team, your closer should be in a 4 run game.
  10. Nah, this front office kept Gibbons specifically to scapegoat him (at least I hope that was the reason because the guy wouldn't manage above Double-A anywhere else). If the Jays miss the playoffs or lose the WC game, then the hick who never should have been rehired in the first place will be sent packing. Much like last year, this team is going to have to win in spite of Gibbons.
  11. John Gibbons managing a one game sudden death game is the scariest damn thing in baseball.
  12. Thank god Osuna was there to save that 4 run game last night. Who needed him fresh for tonight?
  13. Yeah I think it's pretty much a lock that Sanchez pitches the wild card game unless they absolutely need to win Sunday's game. He's been the best starter on the team all season. Whatever happens, he's the guy you want on the mound next Tuesday. Happ would be fine too, but the way the rotation lines up, Sanchez would make more sense. Have the Dickster have his last start on Sunday before he rides off into the sunset. If that was his last start of the regular season last night, man, what a season he's had. I was a big Sanchez doubter, but he's been absolutely amazing since the start of spring training onwards. Huge transformation.
  14. We live in a world where the Jays will probably make the playoffs and Zeke will be starting in the outfield. Never imagined that prior to the season.
  15. Nice. Win at least 1 of the next 2, and Jays should be good.
  16. My guess is Gibby's gonna ride Osuna until the Jays clinch, hopefully soon, and then he'll scale back until Tuesday. Hope it doesn't back fire.
  17. Let's be real, if Gibby brought in another reliever, he'd end up bringing Osuna in the minute a base runner got on anyway. Unavoidable.
  18. Doubts about what? Me defending the Jays? Lol. All I do is hype up the current front office every chance I get, but yeah, I'm a Yankees fan in disguise. You got me.
  19. Yeah, Headley is spot on. And that sucks because I'd rather be defending the Jays than the damn Yankees.
  20. If Donaldson was hit on purpose, then I'd understand. He was hit accidentally by a young pitcher who was probably aiming for the middle of the plate when he threw that pitch given how bad his control was. It happens. There was no need to protect your teammate in that case. I mentioned the Rangers because in their minds, they did the right thing by standing up for Dyson getting embarrassed by the Bat Flip, and Odor for standing up for himself when Bautista made a deliberately hard slide. You can't have it both ways. That's why I think baseball rules and old school thinking should be extinct. If somebody (whether it was Happ, Gibbons, or whoever) was willing to take that chance given where the Jays are in the standings and how much every win is worth right now, then you know old baseball unwritten BS has gotten out of hand.
  21. Or Happ could have realized that Donaldson hbp was an accident and focused on winning the game instead. Crazy, I know. Using the logic presented here, Bush and Odor should be praised for what they did, sticking up for their team and themselves. But of course, that won't be the case.
  22. Definitely Happ's fault. If he doesn't deliberately hit Headley, then none of this happens. I like Happ, but this is on him.
  23. Don't matter. Happ showed how big his dick is by defending Donaldson against an unintentional hbp. That's a true teammate who puts his team first. Can't wait until the baseball unwritten ******** is over with.
  24. Jays win the World Series. Fire Gibbons the next day. That's still my dream, and god dammit, I'm going to hope for it even if I know it won't happen.
