  1. Haha no kidding. It looks like Varsho, Babe and Jansen are already mired in slumps. And Bo has been ass all season. They're all due to get hot again though, and maybe the potential Vlad/Springer hot streaks will be contagious.
  2. Looks like some of the horse shoes have finally fallen out of the Yankees asses. No way that team should be as good as they've been this year. Looks like they are 3-9 in their last 12 and have been getting f***ed up on the regular during that stretch. Been beaten 8-4, 9-3, 17-5, 8-1, 9-7 and 12-2 Now this tonight Good, f*** them.
  3. That 2nd homer will get Springers OPS over .600
  4. What's the over/under for combined Judge/Soto bombs in the 4 game set?
  5. Play better Bo, so the Jays can actually get something decent for you
  6. At the very least you hope the Jays are in there driving up the price for Soto to re-up with the Yanks I don't have much hope he'd sign with the Jays, but trading Bo right now along with every pending FA we have, then landing Soto and Adames in free agency would be a nice way to go into 2025.
  7. Well of course, Varsho had a rough year at the plate in 2023. Meanwhile the Dbacks went on a run with Lourdes and Moreno. I was one of the few preaching patience. I mean,, even with his 85 wRC+ he was still a 2+ fWAR OFer. Now that he's bounced back it's definitely not the time to continue lamenting that trade, which is what that poster was doing and using batting average of all things to justify it. EDIT: but yeah, I guess I didn't have to be a total ******* about it
  8. Things weren't terrible as long as they kept winning 90ish games a season and getting a crack at finding lightning in a bottle for the playoffs. But the team falling apart this season combined with a very low rated farm system is not a good look for Atkins or Shapiro. After 8 years of building a farm system that was supposed to keep a steady trickle of MLB talent coming, there is solid depth being graduated right now and more coming. But the high end talent is just not there, and even the high end prospects they traded haven't amounted to much if anything with their new teams. Developing decent MLB depth is one thing, but you need to bring along some star power too, and they haven't been able to do that. Now the stars they did have are all s***ing the bed and there isn't a decent core to even build around anymore. For sure some heads are going to roll. Hopefully the new FO can find and develop sustainable MLB stars.
  9. I'm glad I'm not the one who has to decide what to do with him. You could sign him to a long term contract and get burned badly (or be happy you did it) You could trade him for a mediocre return and get burned badly (or be happy you did it) I say mediocre return because I don't see a big return for him at this point.
  10. My username probably doesn't help
  11. Eat My Shatkins doesn't think the Jays signing a few handpicked FA's from last off season (like Teo or JDM for example) would have fixed their offense this year =/= EMS will run through a wall for Ross Atkins lmao Figure it out dummies
  12. That's because a certain group of boneheads couldn't differentiate between my defending one aspect of last off season from what my real stance on Atkins and the Jays front office is and then projected that I was some sort of huge Atkins defender. And with these latest comments by you that false projection just gets amplified. Like seriously, how many f***ing times does one need to explain themselves before you figure it out?
  13. Right? There are so many legitimate things that are wrong with this ball club and it's management, why is this doorknob bringing up one of the few wins they've had recently, as a negative? And using batting average to drive his idiocy home.
  14. Oh man... Someone this out of touch shouldn't be allowed to post here unless he's here to shut up and learn something. Sportsnet comments section is more your speed.
  15. Seeing as how Varsho is out WARing Moreno and Gurriel combined, for a fraction of the cost, I'd say yes, the Jays indeed won that trade.
  16. Any person in the org who puts, agrees to put, or signs off on one of the worst hitters in MLB continually batting in the middle of the Jays batting order needs to fired for sure. There is being loyal, and then there is being painfully stupid/stubborn. I have no idea how Springer hasn't been stapled to the bench yet. It's almost July and he's sporting a historically bad OPS for a COFer. It's madness.
  17. Haha well, then get this....Springer's terrible OPS of .559 is still better than Kirk (.550) and KK (.523)
  18. Springer with one of the worst OPS's for a starting corner outfield in the last 100 years and he's batting 5th for the Jays
  19. Absolutely. I hope so.
  20. Again, they reportedly talked with them all.
  21. They reportedly had discussions with every single free agent bat out there. You can't MAKE free agents sign with your team. And like I've said, none of them would have been enough to save this tire fire anyways. Belt lol Nobody signed Belt, and Turner had better projections anyways. look where that got us.
  22. Unless someone knocks their socks off, I don't see Vlad or Bo getting traded, especially at the TDL. Kikuchi, Jansen, KK, Yimi, Richards and Turner should all be dealt for every single prospect lotto ticket they can get.
  23. It was sound logic It made sense on paper It has blown up in their faces spectacularly
