  1. So let's remove his worst appearances and then he would become average. Only if life worked that way... As a closer, you get a long leash to either close or blow the game. The reason his numbers are what they are is because the Jays have stuck with him in games when he was clearly off. His performances clearly tell you that hes a really good 7th/8th inning guy who you take out when hes not on. You know, the role hes had during the best years of his career.
  2. He was elite but doesnt that make it more shocking why his overall numbers look the way they do? It tells you how crappy he is when he's off. Hes pretty much one of the worst closers in the game.
  3. Im a believer in you put your best players right away and worry about future games as it comes, but the Jays do have a tendency to overthink (especially in the playoffs). Do you think there's a possibility the Jays line their pitching like to get Bassitt at home instead of the road? Game 1: Bieber Game 2: Bassitt/Lauer piggy back Game 3: Gausman Game 4: Yesavage Game 5: Bieber
  4. So you'd be willing to risk your entire season and ignore the 162 game sample size for a chance that Hoffman becomes something he's never shown in his MLB career by becoming a shutdown closer? The reasons dont matter at this stage, its just about performance. Play your best in the position theyre most likely to succeed in.
  5. I agree about Vlad but Hoffman has zero track record of being a great closer. I have no clue how someone with that is allowed to crap the bed all year and still have his job. I have very little faith he will perform his role well.
  6. Funny how you think youre smarter than most people because you love to live and die off advanced metrics. There were a bunch of idiots who wanted to DFA him because he wasnt worth his 20M salary and I was laughing at the stupidity of that notion. And yes, I have noticed Vlad get a lot sharper/smarter on a lot of decisions this year. Now let's hope he starts applying those skills to figure out why his hitting tools arent being maximized. Hes clearly not making the right adjustments at the plate.

  15. Is IKF that much better than Barger defensively and on the bases? Don't get why we keep taking him out.
  16. Of course Little has to walk a guy. Not an official appearance otherwise lol
  17. Ya it just didnt look pretty live and then gave Little a strike the next pitch. Looks like we've bullied the Umps into favoring us lol
