    Sloppy sloppy sloppy. 2 points is 2 points though. Sammy has to be better. I don't think Keefe has any issue handing things over to Woll if he's able to build on how he played last season.
  3. That fatso Barriera was a massive disappointment this season.
  4. We'll have to wait for Schneider to write a book, like Gibby did, s***ing on this management team.
  5. His insurance coverage. His wife has a better plan.
  6. Future Blue Jay.
  7. Where I work our year end evaluations have 2 overall components...It's basically, 1. What you do, and 2. How you do it. The 'What you do', is the draft, trades, FA signings, etc...the parts that you're outlining. The 'How you do it' part would be, for example, how he handled "The Decision". Atkins completely removed himself from the situation. That's not what a leader does. No one under him is going to trust him going forward. Let's say for, arguments sake, that it was completely Schneider's decision. As the GM, Atkins should still be protecting his people and taking accountability (especially if you plan on keeping them around). If Schneider was responsible, Atkins was accountable. That's how the hierarchy of power should work. Shifting all blame to Schneider, I guarantee you, has eroded any trust that existed between the two. And I'm betting the players are displeased as well at how their manager was sewered.
  8. I completely agree...but I think there are a lot of people that put a lot of value in "value". Didn't someone on here ask what the WAR comparison per dollar was between KK and Bellinger? Don't remember who it was or what the numbers said, but my point is, a lot of people still think the Tampa way is the best way.
  9. But are you really surprised that this is the kind of person that Atkins is (sacrificing his puppet)? I'm not. He doesn't have the balls to take any accountability.

    Enjoy another Top 5 pick next draft. Habs are building a nice stable of young players. ...btw, that's a stupid meme. Leafs collapse in the spring, not the fall. Habs fans can't even get that right.
  11. Probably because star players cost significant assets or cash...or both. There's often an underlying narrative of "value". I.e. I'd rather have a 2 WAR guy making $8m over a 5 WAR guy making $25m... Cause that gives you $17m to spread around. Tampa only does what they do out of necessity. If they had money, believe me, they'd spend it.
  12. So, did he stick?
  13. Moreno will be a Hall of Famer
  14. It would be an F if this was posted in January, when the animosity had dissipated. The D+ was for trolling when everyone was really angry. The quality of said trolling was garbage though.
  15. Manoah is a massive mystery (pun intended). I honestly have no idea what his future holds. I can see him buckling down and putting in yoemans work this offseason and come into 2024 looking to prove that 2023 was an aberation. On the other hand, I can also see him being a suck, not getting in shape, getting destroyed, and when he doesn't make the club, not reporting to the minors again and demanding a trade. We'll know in 6 months what kind of pro athlete he is.
  16. Babe Schneider is a mirage. We should strive to do better than both.
  17. D+ trolling. Be better.
  18. How does one screw up the direction of the plate like this?
  19. Scherzer would've taken one of Schneider's balls.
  20. So the players aren't the problem then? You're ok rolling out the same offence next season?
  21. It wasn't a managerial decision. He decided nothing. It was decided for him.
  22. No. Sid's tirade has more impact on his own career than Jays' management.
  23. Doesn't matter what he saw. He's just the trigger-man (yes-man). We've all known for years this is how they run things in Toronto. Decisions are made from above the manager...he just needs to be on the field to execute those pre-determined decisions.
