  1. Only 17 more singles between now and the 9th, and the Jays may get to 7 runs. Just have to hold Seattle to 6.
  2. The M’s brought in their version of Barnes and the Jays powered their way to 3 straight outs.
  3. Yeah I'm not going to blame Barnes here. He's on the roster in a mop up role but the Jays seemingly had no one else to use with Hoffman and Garcia not available. Even if the latter two were available, it wouldn't have mattered. This one is on the bats. They had plenty of chances.
  4. Hopefully Gimenez bunts to start the next inning.
  5. Didn't realize Barnes is 35. What the hell do they see in him other than an easy DFA once Swanson comes back?
  6. Yariel in with the ghost runner is terrifying.
  7. Looks like no Jimi or Hoffman today, which isn't a bad idea given how often they've been used, so would be nice to win a close game without having to use those two.
  8. Running full speed into Tellez doesn't look fun.
  9. My guess is he's waiting for Varsho to come back, which doesn't explain why he doesn't just swap Gimenez and Springer now that George is actually hitting, but I try to avoid getting into John Schneider's head for my own sanity.
  10. https://www.sportsnet.ca/mlb/article/springers-a-swing-driving-offensive-bounce-back-for-blue-jays/ The above was about Springer. So it was reported a few weeks ago that Barger was told by the org to do things offensively last year that he wasn't comfortable with, then Davis Schneider said he was focusing on hitting singles last season instead of trying to do damage, and now this with Springer. Don Mattingly, hitting coach from hell, should be studied.
  11. I mean, 2024 Vlad on the 2023 team would have made them pretty decent even with their flaws. The Jays need to bank on something like that. Basically the 2023 team except Vlad and Bo hit like stars at the same time. Only time that's happened since they came up is 2021. Definitely agree they need more though. If nothing else at least a starting 3B. Not sure where that comes from though.
  12. For better or worse this team is going to mimic the 2023 team. As long as it leads to a post season berth that's fine, but chicks definitely won't be digging this team. Pitching, defense, and singles (lots of singles) will be the formula.
  13. Yeah Green isn't good anymore. Hoffman-Garcia-Little-Sandlin is probably the depth chart.
  14. Yeah I don't get using Fluharty here. Hopefully it doesn't backfire.
  15. That Gimenez MVP season ended quickly.
  16. Wow, Garcia dominated the Braves best hitters there.
  17. Bassitt's had a great start to the season.
  18. Too close to overturn, but this is MLB, so who the f knows.
  19. At least the Jays worked the pitch count up in that inning. Man, what a helpless feeling it must be to be facing another team's ace and having Kirk on the bases. The Jays need multiple hits in order to score anyway, but definitely when Kirk is the lead runner.
  20. Wow Roden crushed that one. Great to see some exit velo with him.
  21. 104.4 mph double by Roden followed by some good base running. All we had to do was call him out.
  22. Barger about to go 3-4 with 3 opposite field singles averaging 89 mph.
  23. Yeah I think Clase is an interesting prospect. Not sure there's a high probability of him panning out, but there's power + speed + CF in his profile, and he's still young. That's far more intriguing as a lotto ticket than the 25-26 year old platoon bats in the system. Unfortunately as you said he's someone with maybe some untapped power potential coming into an organization that probably prefers the slap hitting profile he's shown in AAA this season, so not sure if it's the best fit for him to reach his offensive ceiling.
