  1. It's not just a matter of bringing up the record and getting back into the mix with the glut of teams that will be competing for the wild card. It's a matter of honestly assessing whether this team has the horses to actually make the playoffs over these other teams and realistically win a world series. There's an opportunity cost, especially for a team that is as thin in the minor leagues as we are, to passing on the chance to sell at the deadline. We are foregoing assets that we would need to build the next core of what is hopefully a contender. Is this core worth that sacrifice? I don't think it is, I think there's too much rot in this core. I think we need to move on.
  2. Would have preferred a quick little sidearm throw instead of the underhand there, but they got out of it.
  3. Knowing Vladdy I can see him being weird enough to fix his swing just to wear the jacket. Nice to have you back by the way. I thought you were done dirty.
  4. What an offensive show!
  5. f***ing heck of a piece of hitting and base running from Varsho.
  6. IKF is who we thought he was.
  7. Before the season began.
  8. I liked the Green deal, if it ends up not working out so be it, it's not going to kill us. Could still end up being a good deal. Either way it's near the bottom of the list as far as concerns go.
  9. Hopefully they both get hot enough to get some real nice pieces back. One or both may end up being MVP candidates somewhere else, but I ain't willing to take the risk with either one of these two.
  10. Indeed the team owes the fans nothing if they get bonked, but I don't agree that it sets a bad precedent. It rarely ever happens that somebody gets hit really bad especially these days with all the netting, I think it's a good faith gesture to your fan base to at least give them an autographed ball or have them meet their favorite Blue Jay or something. It's not really a big ask.
  11. I don't mind the extra wild card spots, I think everybody's goal should be to try to win a world series, and for teams that think they have the horses to do so by all means get in any way you can, but we don't have the horses. So our path to the world series starts with a rebuild. Like I said, the 2021 team made a push and that team had the horses, I would have been very happy for that team to sneak in.
  12. Bingo! Can we not continue spinning our wheels as, at best, a pretty good team? 40% of teams make the playoffs in baseball. It doesn't mean you are special or great. It's one thing if we were a super talented team that just had a cold start or had significant injuries which caused us to have to sneak in as WC3, like we tried to do in 2021, but we are just a mediocre team that would need to get lucky just to get WC3 but have no real shot of winning anything. Thinking otherwise would only delay the inevitable and cost us value with whatever assets we do have to use to build what is hopefully a real future contender.
  13. I don't know why people bothered watching this. I knew it would be a waste of time with softball ********.
  14. White Sox might be the ones to put us out of our misery.
  15. Well that was all very interesting. I don't even think I feel emotion anymore watching these games.
  16. Springer should bunt for a hit. Then they'll get angry at him breaking up a perfecto like that, they'll hit a batter to retaliate. Then we might finally get something going.
  17. Boooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
  18. Part of me feels they absolutely deserve a kick to their complacency. A perfect game against a complete scrub could be the needle mover finally. But I can't bring myself to actually root for it to happen.
  19. Creeps in this petty pace from day to day...
  20. Yeah this has the fingerprints of another boring Blue Jays game.
  21. I hate using streams and I've no interest in Apple TV in the slightest nor do I even know anybody that has a login I could use. Whatever, I found a stream and I'll deal with it.
