Depressing times to be a Jays fan. 7 years of Shatkins and this is their peak.
Maybe we need them to leave so we can take the next step just like the Indians did back in 2016 lol. These guys do struggle getting the team over the final and most important hump
That is exactly how I saw it in live action. It's one thing if the throw took him to the path but the man was blocking home plate the entire time. If he's gonna do that then Merrified should have been able to bodycheck his ass into the backstop. He obviously can't anymore because of the rule.
Exactly... id rather not trust a team that continues to have horrible pitching numbers year after year. A lot of teams try to outsmart themselves thinking they can be like the Rays and be"ahead" of the game when in reality they're just douches lol.
Give me a CY Young calibre Gausman at 84 pitches when he's pitching a shutout over whatever crap we can throw from the bullpen...
It's hilarious that the Orioles are like 3 games behind us and they're not even trying to make the playoffs lol. If they somehow end up in the Wild Card over us, heads will roll this offseason.
Its clearly Shatkins who have all these decisions made before the games start. The puppet manager just carries out their preexisting plan and reads off spreadsheets.
Its always been clear as day ever since our playoff series against Tampa in 2020. 0 feel for the game...
That is if the ball is in fair territory dude. If you feel you can catch the ball in foul territory and quickly get out of the way of the runner, you do exactly that. I'll wait for my apology tomorrow lol
