  1. Rangers look tough to beat especially with these dead Astros bats.
  2. This may be sacrilige to some but I think Kenny Alberts call was better: "The 1-1 from Dyson....Bautista with a drive....deep left field....no doubt about it!" Chills.
  3. Did Atkins hire Click or was it Shapiro? Had to be Shapiro right?
  4. All true. But I was laughing at the thought of him being a cornerstone franchise player for the Jays. He wasn't.
  5. Shapiro will always be Skeletor for me.
  6. If you're referring to the long list of championship seasons Shapiro teams have accrued under his leadership well...
  7. Sure. More than just from a human resource perspective, nobody likes taking over someone else's work. Then again, Click is right there.
  8. Ross Atkins watching AA's team eliminated from the post season...
  9. That's pretty funny. But inaccurate. I was just noting that he isolated Vladdy by saying "we lost because we didn't score runs and because of baserunning mistake". A guy who can answer questions as deftly as Shapiro put that out there to send a message. It is obvious he was livid about the whole situation but especially Vladdy's stupidity. What is also surprising is that not a lot of media picked it up on it during or after the presser. Media people can be quite tone deaf. When the CEO of the Toronto Blue Jays drops a bomb on the "franchise player" it has repercussions. Good news for Jays fans because Vladdy has been a major downer these past two seasons. Wake up call delivered. Let's see if Vladdy receives it. Only a hundred days until pitchers and catchers report to the Dunedin complex in FLA.
  10. So I just finished watching the Mark Shapiro presser. One thing that stood out for me was when he said, "we lost because of a base running mistake". Didn't expect him to isolate Vladdy like that. Maybe change is afoot. https://www.mlb.com/video/live-blue-jays-press-conference-89368
  11. Names! We want names!
  12. Yep. Anyone who thought they were gonna can Atkins after letting him do the post mortem presser are in a dream world. As I said before, as long as the team is competitive enough to compete for a playoff spot and keep the P/L in the black, Rogers Corp will be happy.
  13. Weren't aware of the history.
  14. I will throw out a name here that I think the Jays should pursue as bench coach. Someone who has presence and knows the game. Someone who commands respect from players throughout the league. Someone who played the game at a high level. Someone who can say to Vladdy wtf are you doing. Someone who won't bend the knee whenever Atkins calls down to the clubhouse. CARLOS BELTRAN.
  15. Also, everyone stop bringing up Dante Bichette as hitting coach. You think Bo wants the guy who threw him and his brother into a wall around? Nah, f*** off with that s***.
  16. Just be happy we didn't have Tony Larussa sitting in the dugout whispering sweet nothings in Schneider's ear.
  17. Rivera's "retirement" could be the harbinger of positive change. Getting rid of Martinez/Hudgins would be warranted and seems likely to happen. If the Jays can't find an brand name hitting coach perhaps Hunter Mense should be given the lead job. New blood will hopefully reinvigorate this franchise and perhaps smooth over the antics of this past two weeks. Hope abounds.
  18. Maybe change the division series to seven games, why not. We could have a WS Champion crowned by halloween.
  19. The Orioles Hangout people were complaining about Adley Rutschman. Words like, overrated, choker, etc. It's the same all over.
  20. Congratulations! Espinal, Biggio and Richards will keep the soda machine filled through 2025.
  21. You went too far back into the well of time for anyone to appreciate the wit BigC.
  22. Harper's home run to deep centre was bloody majestic.
  23. He wasn't even in the room when it happened.
  24. If the P/L looks good Shapiro is golden. I honestly don't think Rogers is overly concerned with this team winning a championship. A half decent on field product is all that they ask to keep the turnstiles moving on Blue Jays Way.
