Im positive he’s full of shit, but hopefully a blind squirrel finds nut situation.

Fire Tony!! ????

I don’t see how this man can still have a job tomorrow. If you want to wait until Monday, fine. But FFS. Fire this worthless POS

More right handed DHs!

Yep. I thought his stuff looked pretty good last start. He hit 98 a few times. Slider looked lively. Hopefully a step in the right direction.

This + a million. Yoan is going no where. Just gotta hope the bat can bounce back to a 110-120 wRC+ type in 2023. He’s still a very valuable player at that level with his defense.

But but but

No, no he would not.

This. Grandal has been brutal this season, but he was bargain the first 2 years of his contract with his production. To date, Yaz had been paid what he’s worth. The balance of the deal is indeed looking rough if this is what he is moving forward tho.

Jays doing their best Sox impersonation there.

Looks like 2017-2018 TA lately. Would concur TA should just take the suspension. My guess is he takes it after tomorrow and sits out Sunday and Tuesday.

Used to hear the same argument about Scherzer early in his career.

I’ll pass on Leury at 3B.

Yep. You can live with 2023, 2024 is gonna really hurt unless he comes back 23 as a changed man.

For sure. I think that is still in there. But it’s also Ok to admit that’s not close to what his ceiling was or what we all hoped he’d become.

Man I really wanted Yoan to become a star. It’s a bummer it didn’t work out that way. He’s still a fine player that’s having a really tough season. I expect him to bounce back. But he’s never coming close to the ceiling he had and that sucks.

Good post. I haven’t been able to master that last part, but I’m working on it.

Its baseball. Of course they have chance. I don't think they're going to win the world series, nor do I think they'd win an ALDS, but they certainly have a chance. May as well enjoy the next couple months and pull for the squad as opposed to being miserable.

I do. They're 2 games back.

Enters dumb thread wondering how in the world in has 2 pages in one morning. Sees about 75% Caulfield posts. INSERT SIMPSONS ENTER/IMMEDIATE EXIT GIF.

Well, sure. But that requires on of our best hitters in Eloy, AV or Abreu to be on the bench, so that simply isn't happening everyday. Engel sort of sucks.

In the flip side, Robert taking 3 walks earlier in the game, one of which he was called out on a pitch a foot off the plate, were very encouraging.

Hopefully we get the same lineup today but with Robert in CF, AV in LF, Pollock in RF and Eloy DH. Pollock needs to learn to be ok playing RF; that is the best possible defensive lineup we got.

More cueto?

It’s just hard to image how bad of shape this team would be without Jose. That’s when I start to change my tune.
