  1. I was saying that Martin should not be hitting anywhere below 7th IMO... I think maybe we agree with that.. I am more frustrated at Gibbons consistently putting Martin middle order. This is a blurb from FS: When you have two distinct halfs in a year, I don't' think that is being consistent: Osuna had a tale of two seasons in 2017, the young closer pitched his way to his first All-Star game appearance after a first half earned run average of 2.06 slamming the door on 22 games. The second half of the season was not as kind to the young closer as he struggled with anxiety issues and his earned run average ballooned to 4.97. Plus he led the league in blown saves last year. I acknowledged they did well on position depth.. A Year too late, but I think they did well this year. Biagini has not proven he can be a good major league starter yet.. not even 5th spot. Again, my issue is with Smoak (horrible second half and spring so far) Morales, bad 2017, and Martin, hitting too high in order. I wish they would mix it up so you don't have three station to station, high K guys hitting three in row.. It appears that is the order Gibbons favors.
  2. Very worried about a lot of aspects of this team. I think we will see the combo of Smoak, Morales and Martin is a horrible middle of the order. Talking about a High K , DP threesome. Smoak had a good half-year, and it was the first half. Martin has not been good since fall 2016. Morales is regressing and too slow. I still am baffled as to why Gibbons keeps hitting Martin so high in the order. The bullpen is not a strong spot as some have said in the media.. or a position of strength. Really have no idea if Osuna will be consistent, Loup sucks.. the rest of te guys are crap shoots.. Too many good game, then horrible game guys.. We need a back-up catcher that hits better than a pitcher. Granderson was left off the playoff roster and many thought he would retire.. No team speed if you actually have the first choice starting line-up of Travis, Tulo and Pierce Like the depth pieces.. But still very worried about a threesome of Smoak, Morales and Martin.. No SP depth!! Rather see Danny Jansen up this year then Male. Think 1B will be a weak spot.. No good replacements available yet.. I think they need to get T Hernandez in there consistently somehow...
  3. Osuna blew a lot of saves last year during a stretch and then he had the psych issues.. Was not the same pitcher as 2016. As you know relievers are finicky and he is young. Don't believe we have enough margins to get anywhere without our 3 win closer. If this team is in a position to win a game we need to finish it. I would like to have another closer type just in case and if all is well use as set-up man. I don't see that in our pen now.
  4. We still need a back up catcher.. Not just a pulse as we have now. Need much more BP help. Don't like the K rate of starting 9. Why does Sportsnet and the Jays (apparently) consider Loup one of the BP locks. Loup needs to earn his way on the team and we need to cut bait if he does not perform. Need more lefties in pen not including Loup. Good IF depth for once. Atkins should have realized that after 2016, for the 2017 season. It was obvious to any casual fan. However, I guess better late than never. Very worried about Estrada's back, Sanchez blister, Happ's whatever... and which Osuna we will get.... Still need a lot more work.. Let's go!
  5. Since Bruce God Almighty, got traded to Cleveland tonight, there goes a possible landing spot for Bautista... Crap..
  6. However, bases loaded in the 2nd or 3rd whenever it was and only 1 run on the sac fly. Smoak, not catching a ball in foul territory.. Donaldson not making the clean play on the dive at 3b... All that led to this loss as much as Cole Taylor, former ML pitcher known as Taylor Cole.
  7. I would change my name to Cole Taylor after tonight...
  8. I knew it... Our BP sucks... It has been an issue more times than a positive since last year...
  9. It was obvious beyond a doubt on the CSN feed that ball didn't hit him.. Osuna's fault for making it so close we get a s*** call.
  10. He is taking up space. We are not ( I hope to God we aren't) exercising the option. He is just taking up space. What is the point of him on team. They think fans go out this year to see Bautista.. Not real fans... I would much rather see one of the jovens or the new guys then Bautista...
  11. I understand that we were not going to get Blue Chip prospects.. However, cash, International slot money, a PTBNL or something.. What is the point of keeping Estrada until he is a FA.. They had more leverage a few hrs ago then they will if any of those guys needs to clear waivers.. Package them with others.. or something.. I just dont see the point of anyone other than Smoak being here the rest of the season.. The guy I really wanted to see go forget all others was/is Bautista.. I didn't want to sign him again and think we need to a young guy get some reps.. The other thing is, with Pierce, Morales and Smoak, it forces you to have bad D in the OF.. I want to get younger, faster and better D, which none of those 3 really accomplish.
  12. Not happy about this trade Day.. We still have Bautista, we should have sold high on Smoak, we should have got something other than a bag of balls for Estrada and Barney. We should have got rid of one of the Pierce, Morales, Smoak combo...while their value is high.. I think this FO overvalues what we have and think we have a better team then we really do...
  13. Do you know the odds to have 2 (TWO) walk off Grand slam HRs within days..... Pierce needs to go to Vegas and play some slots, damn boy!! At least we have a couple of small moments from this s*** season. Too bad it doesn't mean anything in the standings..
  14. Well there it is folks, we promise double digit Sunday and you get it....
  15. The Jays should do a new promotion. Double digit Sundays.. We guarantee the opponent will score double digits against us.. Every Sunday home stand. To add to the promotion, we will wear Red in honor of something Canadian. The stadium will be full and we guarantee lots offense from the other team. Our opponent needs only one more run to make it a record in a row of double digit of suck Sunday! Como on out kids, hurry, only so many home Sundays left to see the opponent score double digits!
  16. So, what you are saying Buck is the Jays made a huge error when they failed to get a real lead off man in the off season or up to this point. Yes! I agree with you for once Buck..
