    Thanks Nats D

    This is why I have a hard time throwing the noose around Atkins neck so quickly. The guy built a pretty good team but unfortunately he built it around a rotten core. I don't think anyone would have seen that coming in 2021 or 2022.

    Can we get a negativity thread???? Lmao Every other fugging thread is negative

    Jays were clipping along on (almost) all cylinders winning on pitching and defense, 9-4, had won 4 series in a row and opened up with a win in KC....then Vlad missed a f***ing routine catch at 1st. Since then, 2-8 and all the wheels have come of this old gilopy. f*** you Vlad

    Nimmala hit his 2nd dinger today, hopefully he starts to figure low A out In the same game Fernando Perez had 8 K's in 5 innings and Kai Petersen had 5 K's in 3 innings both were sitting 93-94 MPH with their FB's Not bad for 20-21 year olds. I'm sure their arms will fall off soon like everyone else.

    Giants would probably be looking to snag Bo if he were made available.

    It's like JS went over to the Nationals dugout and asked them which reliever they'd like him to use right now.
  8. Eat My Shatkins
    I like to think I'm one patient mofo, but what kind of f***ing dunce uses their most struggling reliever in a two run game when everybody is rested? Like, how f***ing stupid do you have to be to make decisions like that?
  9. Eat My Shatkins
    Hopefully Bargers D was just nerves, the bat too I guess. Like I've said, not every guy is going to hit the ground running like Schneider and Clement

    Delete plz

    Jansen already with 0.7 fWAR in 10 games. Double positive effect is it appears Kirk is maybe coming around with his work load reduced.

    I would try to land some top tier FA's first and kick the can down the road. Might be the wrong call, but there is just too much depth to blow it up without trying to retool the the star power. Plus because they didn't piss away money this off season by panicking (like the fans) they aren't hamstrung with a handful of bloated contracts on the books. If it doesn't work they still have plenty of time to move Gausman and Berrios. Bassitt return probably doesn't move the needle anyways.
  13. Eat My Shatkins
    Lots could change by July, but even if they decided to punt the season I don't know if a fire sale is what they'd need to do. They just need to move on from Bo and Vlad and retool around what is still looking like a very good rotation, decent bullpen, and plenty of depth. They could also probably get something nice for Kikuchi if he won't extend. Would need to hit some home runs in free agency though. Like one or two of Alonso, Soto, Adames type of thing.
  14. Eat My Shatkins
    Too be fair he's had 15 PA's Not every guy they call up from AAA is going to hit the ground running like Schneider and Clement.
  15. Eat My Shatkins
    I'm not judging the front office, I'm questioning the people who continually complain that they didn't "fix" the offense. I never said the FO did a good or bad job, I'm saying from our view point it doesn't seem like there was much they could do with what was available, other than shore up D and pitching and try to help the hitters already on the team rebound back closer to career norms. It hasn't worked so far and it actually looks like some of these hitters have gotten even worse possibly.
  16. Eat My Shatkins
    Is the expected win loss calculated from run differential? The reason the Jays are our performing it might be because -18 of the -31 comes from just two games where we got clubbed to death by Houston 10-0 and 8-0. Most of the other losses have been fairly close I think
  17. Eat My Shatkins
    Exactly. "They did nothing to fix the offense" Yeah nothing except go after the only two proven elite bats available, but the chances of getting either was basically nil right from the start. They really didn't have much choice other than shore up the D and pitching and hope Springer, Vlad, Kirk and Varsho brought their bats this season. Well, Varsho did but sadly Bo has negated that improvement by completely crapping the bed this year. The other option was to make things even worse by handing out massive deals to Chapman and Bellinger. Imagine where'd we be now if they'd made that mistake. Screwed this year, and screwed for the next many years too with those contracts on the books. At least this way they are positioned to make a clean transition from the Bo/Vlad era if things don't get turned around this season.
  18. Eat My Shatkins
    Yes I'm seriously asking what they should have done. People keep saying they should have pulled some sort of miracle out of their asses or given bloated contracts to risky players which likely would have made things worse in the long run.
  19. Eat My Shatkins
    That's because the 3rd, 4th and 5th best free agents were basically going to be over paid garbage the minute they were signed.
  20. Eat My Shatkins
    I agree, and I'm saying there doesn't appear that there was much that they could about it. I mean it's easy to sit here and cherry pick the odd guy that was available and is off to a good start this year and say they should have got him, but I can cherry pick just as many guys that people here wanted the Jays to get who are off to s*** starts too. That's the point, nothing out there was a sure thing like Ohtani and Soto. And for the players off to hot starts that were available, maybe the Jays talked to them and got shot down.
  21. Eat My Shatkins
    Yeah, and you don't know that "they didn't even try" I mean, unless you were sitting in all the talks they had with players, agents and other teams execs
  22. Eat My Shatkins
    First off, I don't care if they fire every single person in the front office and replace them with BJMB members, I just want a winning team. But I'm going to ask this what feels like the 5,678th time....please tell me what in the flying f*** the FO was supposed to do to "fix" the offense? They tried for Soto in a trade, too much to give up for one year of Soto. They threw $700 million at Ohtani. After that there was sweet f*** all that they missed out on. Everything left after Ohtani and Soto was just more question marks, not a damn thing that was for sure going to "fix" the offense.
  23. Eat My Shatkins
    Oops I was wrong, it was a 5 pitch K
  24. Eat My Shatkins
    Berrios rolling now, too bad about the home run earlier. Now it's time for another Springer 1 pitch out? Or maybe a 3 pitch strike out?
  25. Eat My Shatkins
    Manoah gave up a dinger in the 6th, but two more K's 6 P 12 K's 2 walks 2 hits 1 run 92 pitches, 62 strikes. I'm only following on the gameday, slider is 82 MPH, 4 seam 93-95 MPH and tons of swing and miss. (obviously)
