  1. The Gomes trade, yeah it looks awful now, but at the time it seemed more or less fine. The Happ trade actually looks decent right now even though it's still too early to tell. But those were not his worst. These were: Marlins trade (epic bad) Dickey trade (stupid) Napoli for Francisco (yikes) Aaron Hill and John McDonald for Kelly Johnson (god f***) Travis Snider for Brad Lincoln (senseless)
  2. I find those kind of insults lacking because they're too far-fetched, just call him dumb... that way it'll hit him close to home.
  3. Sad because there were so many times when we should have won games and didn't. More so then vice-versa.
  4. I know. I'm just saying I never figured they would spend regardless of what was said. The only reason Rogers had money for 2013 was because Nadir Mohamed decided to go out with a bang.
  5. With the oversized Buehrle and Reyes contracts did you honestly expect that they would spend any money...
  6. If Chad Mottola was the hitting coach in 2014, the Blue Jays would of gone 162-0 and won the World Series.
  7. How does a fan fall in love with a bench coach?.... you literally never see anything he does.
  8. None of the Alomar's would make good coaches/managers.
  9. Lol, ouch
  10. OK......... please never talk to me ever again. Thank you.
  11. This is actually a good idea except that the manager would never do this because he'd be putting his job in jeopardy.
  12. OK but Gibbons not winning with "high pay-roll team" has nothing to do with Gibbons, AA has over-valued and over-paid for players.
  13. You didn't have to get so carried away. Essentially I blame AA for the moves that he's made and the players he's put on the field. I blame Paul Beeston for allowing AA to make those moves. I can't blame the players because they've pretty much all done what they were supposed to do (what you said is not true). But I most definitely do not blame Gibbons. Obviously something needs to be done, and it's not changing he manager. It's acquiring better players, in particular at those positions that are lacking.
  14. No. You said they are "both" going to the play-offs. Oakland may not even win a WC spot let alone make the "play-offs". By the way, I have no idea why you're not on my IL already.
  15. I’m really disappointed in this board. Every year it’s the same spiel: the Blue Jays are losing therefore the answer must be to fire the manager. What is your succession plan? Firing the manager in itself does not help the team. Who do you suggest can do a better job than Gibbons? While I’m sure you think this is easy to answer, it’s really not. It’s easy for the simple-minded to point a finger at an individual rather than a group but it’s just not right. Gibbons is a good tactician, I would say above average in terms of major league managers. There are a lot worse out there. He’s better then John Farrell and Farrell won the World Series last year. He’s better than Brad Ausmus and the Tigers will likely win the division.
  16. Wildcard berth is not playoffs IMO. Though Detroit should still likely win the division.
  17. Firing Gibbons would be just the dumbest thing imaginable. In no way, shape, or form is this season on Gibbons.
  18. Well, if you can't beat them, bean them all (???)
  19. All they do is play good baseball everywhere all day
