  1. Yesterday was the perfect example of why teams have moved to batting their best players 2nd. More at bats. Watching the game end with 2 on and Vlad in the on deck circle yesterday just sucks. There's a very high probability that Lukes is a sub 100 wRC+ hitter this year. He's a 31 year old journeyman.
  2. It's so frustrating that Vlad has some BS mental block about hitting 2nd. I'm not 100% sure Lukes should even be on this team, let alone hitting 2nd.
  3. You think people don't know that? Obviously a slow start is meaningful and will impact our ability for a good season and potentially a playoff spot. You think fans want to hear people tell them the obvious, doom and gloom post, suggesting the season's over 8 games in and that the FO and coaching staff are all morons? Like what the f*ck do you suggest they do? Panic moves because their chances of winning the division dropped from 30% to 15%? Trade Jojo Parker and Nimmala right now? Bench Varsho? Send Barger to AAA? Cut Springer? They could have send Little down to AAA a game or 2 earlier - sure, but that's minor in the grand scheme of things. There's very little that can be done right now that makes a lot of sense. Want to vent with nonsensical posts - try Facebook. Nobody wants that here.
  4. Did I miss the discussion on the Jays acquiring Tyler Fitzgerald?
  5. Drastic moves after 8 games just isn't wise. Panicking rarely works. I mean obviously Little needs to go to AAA, but they've made that move. Things may go completely south. That's always a possibility in baseball. But it's far too early to say with any confidence this isn't still a very good baseball team that has a great chance to make the playoffs. People saying that may ultimately be correct, but that's just luck. They have no idea at this point. I honestly think people say s*** just to setup the "I told you so" moment, which must make them feel good about themselves (otherwise, why do it?). Injuries are adding up though. Need to get going.
  6. Dude - he's spot on. There are SEVERAL other options full of uneducated and irrational fans. It's essentially every other option there is. I've always felt this place was special because it was full of highly educated fans who understand the game more than the typical fan. That's the primary reason I've spent so much time here for past 13+ years. Winning always brings more casual fans. For lots of us, it can get a bit annoying. Obviously new members are awesome for the board, but not at the expense of this place morphing into Facebook. I come here for educated debates, news and to learn more about the game. I don't come here for irrational nonsense. Go vent on Facebook. I'm sorry. But that's how I feel. I'm actually cool with you. You're fine. I just enjoy getting you going these days, which is a d*ck move LOL. Maybe it helps me get over the frustrations of this brutal start.
  7. Just think of the haul we can get at the deadline for Gausman!
  8. Sure am glad the FO went out and got this guy. Excited to see what he's got.
  9. It probably plays down. Corbin wouldn't make the Barrie Baycats bullpen.
  10. C'mon man. Games can be stressful. Its hard not to jump off a cliff. Several times a week.
  11. Jomboy Media (@jomboymedia) • Instagram reel WWW.INSTAGRAM.COM 24K likes, 365 comments - jomboymedia on April 3, 2026: "A special moment for Ozzie Guillén 🥹". That's a pretty nice moment for Ozzie.
  12. At least last year was fun. Back to 2024 I guess.
  13. He's always had elite velo and stuff. Control? Not so much
  14. How do you take Burgers hot bat outta the lineup?
  15. Perhaps - still brainwashed
  16. No - I'm a glass case of emotion during love games. The passion overwhelms me. All rational thoughts go out the door. Thankfully I have this place to vent and share my nonsensical beliefs.
  17. How soon until the "Fire Popkins" thread is made?
  18. Quoting his ERA after 1 game this year is certainly a choice.
