But he hasn't had a hit in over a year in the 7th inning or later that tied the game or put the Jays ahead (or whatever that stupid random stat was). Suxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
I get that - but it's not like there's a #4 starter throwing 89 on the mound. The game was packed full of fundamentals when pitchers like this toed the rubber day in and day out, facing the lineup 3-4 times a game. It's A LOT more difficult now to execute those fundamentals.
I was going to say that - probably f***ing around talking to him and not paying attention. Vlad reminds me of Vince Carter. I understand the talent, but the player himself drives me insane as a fan.
I may have missed it, but I saw an article that said NY was considering DFA'ing A.Chapman. Seemed like click bait to me, but still interesting. He's been awful this year, but still...
Agreed. I think in an ideal world, we'd finish 3rd in the WC Standings so we can go through Cleveland and NYY before having to face Houston. Doesn't look like that's going to happen though, so we're probably going to need some luck if we get through the WC round.
I believe the Yankees game is on Apple TV today. Can you imagine the uproar if Judge hits 61 (and 62?) during the game today when it's only available to Apple TV customers? Fans can't watch it and their own hometown YES announcers can't call the game? The bitching and moaning would be incredible and I would love ever second of it.
This has disaster written all over it. Not that I agree with it, but if this doesn't work out for Schneider, he may not shed the "interim" manager title and we may be looking for someone new to lead the 2023 Blue Jays.
