This isn't really true. There are plenty of everyday people who mail it in on a daily basis and still get paid. His poor performance this year will cost him money next year (just like it should in most professions). The key is to join a union....the majority of them mail it in and get raised despite their poor performance!

How much does Hutch hate life right now? Opening day starter for the best team in the AL - and there's a 0% chance he's ever on the playoff roster. That's gotta suck man. If the Jays win the WS - does Hutch "feel" like a champion?
-
Because that happened once? I think the last time something like this happened was in like 1983. It would be a gross overreaction to change the format based on this year.
-
Exactly. Another factor is the ALDS is only a 5 game series. An inferior team is more likely to get lucky and win in a 5 game series than they are in a 7 game series. I'll take the WC team without their ace until Game 3 in the ALDS everyday of the week.

Technically, this is true. However, the big factor you're missing is 1st in the AL plays the winner of the wild card, instead of playing Texas. I think that's a HUGE difference.

That's pretty awesome man. Get that baby in a frame!
-
+1 - how on earth don't people see the reason they need to push for 1st in the AL East?

He looks like a Sergio Romo clone to me. Romo's slider only averages 78 MPH - which is about what this guys throwing that frisbee at...

127 km/h!

Keep in mind that at the beginning of his tenure, AA had a limited budget to work with, which may explain why he elected to take on players with character flaws - as there was perceived value there. There's obviously also a chance he undervalued strong leadership and team chemistry and has adjusted accordingly. There is no answer to this people; however, IMO, talent wins and winning creates good chemistry.

I love me some Stephen Brunt. Best guy on TV/Radio in a landslide. -

TIME - why isn't Jeff Blair on the list?????? -
The view from TV is better than any seat in the house if you want to "watch" the game. It's all about the atmosphere when you go to the game and I can guarantee you won't be disappointed for Game 1 of the ALDS. Don't overthink this one man...
-
I don't mind giving Donaldson essentially 2 days off in a row. We need him to bring the rain the playoffs with fresh legs.
-
Dude - Buehrle was the BOSS in June/July...you're 1 for 2 there my friend.
-
He'll likely be non-tendered now. A good reminder that bullpen pitchers are volatile.
-
Um - you get better views on TV than basically any seat in the house. I was Section 114 Row 2 last night and almost every pitch looks like a strike from there...
-
Ah - didn't know you could open the windows a bit. I get it. Hookers are not allowed in your nosebleed seats either, so that's another added bonus...
-
I guess you're there for the party - but if I'm sitting 500 level, I'm doing so solely for the atmosphere (view is awful). If you're in a hotel room, the view is awful and you're likely watching the game on TV a lot.......do you even get the atmosphere through the glass????

Holy crap - Stubhub executives must sleep on beds of money! What a scam.

When do tickets for the ALCS and World Series go on sale to the general public?
-
Shockingly not everyone has to drink (to escape the reality of their s***** life) to enjoy a baseball game

Could Smoak have a breakout season in 2016?
Brownie19 replied to abola2121's topic in Toronto Blue Jays Talk
On the flip side - I don't think Cola racks up the golden sombrero last night either. Very surprised Gibby didn't pinch hit Cola after Smoak struck out 3 times and comes up with a runner on 3rd with 1 out. -
Game 1, Game 2, off day, Game 3, Game 4, off day, Game 5 - can't you go Price on 3 days rest Game 4 and Stro on 4 days rest Game 5?...perhaps I have that schedule wrong...

Serious: Is tonight's game the most important since 1994?
Brownie19 replied to TRM's topic in Toronto Blue Jays Talk
BAM. nail hit on head right there.
