  1. I can picture Romano getting warm in the 9th.
  2. Merryweather, Gage, Richards should wrap this up.
  3. Hyde knew the call all along, he just wants Manoah to get cold. Dude is playing 8D chess. Oriolytics.
  4. When Chapman comes back Biggio needs to be taking outfield ABs away from Tapia.
  5. If the infield always played in, Guerrero's batting average would be 1.000
  6. Tigers have like a 1% chance to win the division, Jays have about 20%. If the Yankees lose 1 or 2 key players those probabilities can change dramatically. It's June. It's not mental gymnastics because the Yankees have historically had a lot of injury problems and about half their starting lineup is made of glass.
  7. The Yankees have built up a huge lead, but their top performers are also very injury prone (Stanton, Judge, Donaldson, etc.). The only true health red flags on the Jays are Springer and Ryu (and to a lesser extent Jansen). One or two bad breaks for the Yankees and the division could turn into a dogfight quicker than you think.
  8. Lefty on the mound tomorrow. Zimmer will be in LF and Tapia will be DH. Kirk on the bench.
  9. They're not exactly ramping him up either. He pitches like once a week.
  10. Biggio officially has a higher wRC+ than Teoscar.
  11. This is the kind of old school sabermetrics thinking that led the 2000s A's to make the playoffs every year and never win a playoff series. There are absolutely teams that are set up for success in the playoffs. How much prospect capital you choose to risk to build that team is the only question here. I'm not saying trade Moreno for an expensive closer, but if management thinks now is the time for a championship, moves will need to be made.
  12. Intentional walk on 1-2 would be considered a dumb move back in 1995. It's not some sort of old school veteran move. And honestly, Montoyo is a young manager that makes decisions on a daily basis that are pretty stupid.
  13. Last year the team was fighting to make the playoffs. With the new wildcard format the Jays are like 95% likely to make the playoffs. If the front office is seriously pushing to win a World Series this year, they'll need to add at least 1 and possibly 2 elite bullpen arms and a replacement bat for Tapia's PAs. There is absolutely no way a team with this bullpen wins the World Series. The 2015 team had 3 elite guys (Osuna, Hendriks, Cecil) and an entire second wave of guys that are just as good as our setup guys (Aaron Sanchez, Latroy Hawkins, Mark Lowe). If we're lucky, some of these pieces might be internal (Pearson, Moreno). I think they'll make a final decision closer to the trade deadline.
  14. You don't want your catcher to be tall. It's much harder to receive the baseball and can take a toll on your knees. Height was the number one long term concern for both Joe Mauer and Matt Wieters as prospects. Kirk's weight is a serious long term issue, but he does appear to be losing weight each offseason.
  15. Another game that ends with the Rocket waiting on deck. Charlie's gonna get a lot of tough questions after the game.
  16. Is Tapia a Boras guy? Might need to lock him up soon.
  17. Remember Rich Garces? He's that guy.
  18. Kirk getting DH ABs on back to back days. Tapia must be hurt.
  19. Guerrero getting tunnel vision and completing the play after getting called off is understandable. Arguing that he was right once the play is over is a low IQ move.
  20. Teoscar's been getting throwing tips from Rocket Ramiel I see.
  21. Trading your all star calibre starting catchers midseason in a pennant race is not a smart idea at all. And we don't have anywhere near the hitting depth to trade away Kirk's DH ABs. You don't trade an MLB ready top 10 prospect unless you get back a true ace. We're one or two bad breaks away from giving Collins and Tiedman regular ABs. We lost our fifth best starter, it's not time to panic. Use lower level prospects to shore up the bullpen, rotation, and an outfielder that can hit better than Tapia.
