  1. Thank God for the earthquake. Jays needed a shake-up.
  2. Varsho’s bat looks like it is comiing around the ball, even when he hits it well.
  3. It did look like Springer’s bat was a tad quicker in spring training. You can’t totally discount what you see there.
  4. GDT seems to be troll-free so far. A whole page!
  5. Dunno what Ross was thinking. But when you think about it, the Jays should be able to cobble together production from third that leaves somewhat less than the Avogadro’s number Chapman left on base last year.
  6. Yeah, I know. Ross has a great sense of who to sign and when, and in the case of Ray, when to let them go. Full points. From a business model POV, though, that might not be sustainable. Jays have to spend gobs of money on FA starters every year, and other what was the lightening flash of Manoah, it impacts every other part of the team. Here’s hoping for Ricky.
  7. Really disappointing on Barriera’s velo. Damn, the Jays have a hard time developing starters.
  8. Turner doesn’t look like he’s going to fall off a cliff anytime soon.
  9. Full points to Ross for the Bassitt signing. He’s had a great season. Managed to stay healthy like the rest of the starters, which doesn’t happen very often. I enjoy watching him pitch, and hope he gets a playoff start in the wildcard series, should we make it.
  10. Eye opener for me was when Shulman said the average on base plus slugging in Triple A was over .800, what with the automated strike zone or challenge rules. Might take a little sheen off all those guys seemingly raking in Buffalo.
  11. My favourite Schneider moment so far is him busting his ass in Game One to beat the throw on a routine grounder. Didn’t really care that he beat the throw, loved the hustle. Hope he never loses that. Man, that was a fun time watching him this series!
  12. Any truth to the rumour that the Jays are changing the name of their minor league system to “ The Fat Farm”?
  13. Watts-Brown and sounds like a bell? Dung. Apologies to Eric Idle.
  14. Didn’t expect so, Spank. When a guy is wrong, he is wrong, thanks for being a man and admitting it. Or would you prefer to discuss Irv Carter?
  15. I am beholding. What is your point?
  16. Nope, ain’t going to Spank. Forum never gave Lourdes a break, even if he was the same type of bat, with less power. Two months a year guy. I like more consistency.
  17. Don’t know what rizz is, actually seen the word last night, but did not care enough to look. Might I assume if you are posting this, you are an *******?
  18. Spank, you missed my entire polnt. Yes, yes, yes, with the averages and means. He sucks for four months a year. That is all I am saying.
  19. Not directed at you Spank, it was at Stang something, who deleted his post.
  20. I knew more about baseball before you were a glint in your parent’s eyes, Toronto Raptors draft choice.
  21. Nope, can’t find standard deviation analysis, just me. That is a rather stupid question.
