  3. I probably could but I’m not worried about other teams. I watch a fair share of Baseball I have rarely ever watched this much fall through the cracks. I genuinely believe the vast majority of managers would have came out and argued that missed walk. I remember yelling at my TV last year when he put Ramiel Tapia in LF for Defense when he had Jackie Bradley Jr on the bench. Its a bunch of small mistakes that add up into big consequences. And a lot of us were confused the moment it was made. This isn’t just hindsight. Managers job is to play out a variety of scenarios and prepare for all of them. If he’s incapable of thinking about these things on his feet this isn’t the job for him.
  4. Its part of the formula but its not an exact Science. Its why an in game manager exists to make decisions on the fly when things don’t go perfectly to plan. Like I said its the little things. Removing Merrifield in the 5th slot when you could have simply removed Espinal in the 9th slot. Leading or not that back fired and was easily avoidable. Letting Berriors face 5 straight Left-handed hitters despite his terrible numbers 3rd time through and the fact that he had not been particularly good in the game. He ended up recording zero outs and ended up using Mayza anyway. So why not just use Mayza before that scenario unfolds. And those are just examples in the last 2 games. I could go on and on about his inability to execute simple helpful decisions. He doesn’t even come out to argue Whit not walking the other day. Nobody knew a balk was called. You’re not even going to ask questions? I think I would rather just have a computer manage the team at this point if he’s going to be that lazy. It’s either that or he wasn’t paying attention.
  5. My expectations were to challenge for the division. That needs to be the goal. Jays don’t want to play in another Wild Card series. So start making Division winning decisions in April and May instead of just August and September because they all could the same. If this team falls short of the division by a couple of games. We should definitely remember the games punted at this time of year. There’s nothing wrong with having aspirations for more.
  6. Rays have fans? And I’m not saying it doesn’t happen to other teams. Seems to be a nightly occurrence here. Just the little things he doesn’t think about. And that’s literally his job.
  7. It’s much less about Rogers be willing to pay. It’s the potential to lose draft picks. And avoiding the tax in the future seems impossible. The Jays have so many players to pay. And giving mid rotation arms isn’t helping. We likely won’t be able to afford Chapman, Vlad, and Bo because contracts like Bassit’s exists. That’s extremely annoying. Luckily Ryu comes off the book finally but in arbitration raises alone that quickly evaporates. Jays inability to develop pitching and being forced to overpay Starters in Free Agency is really limiting the Franchise’s potential.
  8. We would likely have to eat another big salary to improve the club. So moving Belts salary and someone else. Belt + Bass + Prospect for Joc Pederson. Something along those lines.
  9. Its more so the ways the Jays are losing that’s annoying me. It’s already been a handful times this season where better decision making would have altered the outcome. John Scheneider doesn’t appear to be cut out for this job.
  10. I’m going to be honest. When the Jays signed Belt I had no idea he was even a Free Agent. I just assumed he was still under contract with the Giants. I didn’t hear any buzz about Free Agency. And most of us were shocked they signed 1B/DH type. Unfortunately it doesn’t look like they it’s going to work out. The unfortunate part isn’t the 9m it’s already being right up against the luxury tax so it’s really s*****.
  11. Yimi has pitched himself out of leverage if we’re relying on him we’re in trouble. I’m usually supportive of Starters going deeper in games. But Berrios was walking a tight rope the entire game. He should have never seen that onslaught of lefties a third time. He was very bad again last night and was quite frankly lucky he didn’t blow up much earlier than he did.
  12. These are games you can't lose. Its just a comedy of errors and bad decisions. You can't win the Division early but you can certainly lose it. Rays pitching is way to good to get into a huge hole.
  13. They are really pissing away any shot at the division.
  14. Camera Man thought that was hit 500 feet.
  15. Blue Jays have absolutely no business being in this game right now. From the managerial decisions to the absolute pathetic execution. Here we are.
  16. Welcome to tonight’s strikezone Kirk lol
  17. Belt is done. That decision seals it. Just cut ties.
  18. Kinda shocked they are pitching to Merrifield
  19. Pull dat ball please. Nobody needs Cito Gaston and Dwayne Murphy more than Varsho.
  20. Well if the Red Sox are getting that call we are absolutely f***ed.
  21. Probably should have went to your lefty for all the leftys
