Couldn't get anything going against starting pitching and got completely dominated by the bullpen. Obviously they didn't learn anything. Too bad. Wonder what Bautista thinks of Merrit now. What did he say, if you don't mind repeating? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squamfan Posted October 20, 2016 Share Posted October 20, 2016 Jays need to let JB walk, give EE a blank cheque and sign him for what ever he wants, and get Votto and Reddick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shiznak Posted October 20, 2016 Share Posted October 20, 2016 I'm still asking myself, "why didn't Gibby sub-in Navarro for Upton, when he hit that single off Miller in the 8th?" Upton would have probably been safe on that play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptainCanuck001 Posted October 20, 2016 Share Posted October 20, 2016 Let JB go Sign EE Go after 2-3 guys for the pen (please push hard for Chapman, unlikely that it is) Get a couple lefties in the lineup Please don't make Wedge the manager.

Gurn Posted October 20, 2016 Share Posted October 20, 2016 Sign EE, let JB go,too much drama with him. Perhaps the umps will forget JB was a Jay, in a few years. Find a player or two that can hit .300 and steal the occasional base, Add a lefty bullpen arm, replace Gibby. Presto done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CANUCK-EXPRESS Posted October 20, 2016 Share Posted October 20, 2016 EE's first choice for free agency is Toronto... that's good I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

komodo0921 Posted October 20, 2016 Share Posted October 20, 2016 Another positive is the management tandem that built the Indian team that s moving on is now going to subtract the unnecessary and add the missing pieces. I'm still very excited about this team moving forward and think the Jays are gonna be better than ever before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good luck getting your 20million. No wonder his agent wanted to cash out last summer. The guy just lost like 50million dollars this year. Agent was smart, delivery wasn't. I haven't forgotten what Bats has done, HOWEVER, Playoff ball is NL style. Real baseball. Jose' legs are gone, less range as an OF. 50M for the pair wont happen in TO. Blank cheque for EE? thoughts?

SilentSam Posted October 20, 2016 Share Posted October 20, 2016 He Blue Jays did not learn from last year,. They celebrated and partied after they beat Texas.. why? they still hadn't accomplished what they're main goal. Party hard, Lack discipline , lose focus, then lose, ... they deserved to. Hockey Players down play the Presidents Trophy, and Conference Championships, just to keep they're eyes on the prize. Lord Stanley. Gibbons should have kept the Jays under control.

Bautista tried to get in the young lefy's head. Didn't work, but that's part of the game. Kipnis batted .067 (with that constipated batting stance of his) in the series - maybe he's not the guy that should be chirping a veteran gamer that just ripped the ball his last two at bats in an elimination game. Merritt answered it far better than Kipnis. Edited October 20, 2016 by oldnews 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ReggieBush Posted October 20, 2016 Share Posted October 20, 2016 Congratulations Bluejay fans on a solid season. Not the result you were hoping for but the Indians came out and were the better team. As long as you lock up EE you will be pretty good the next couple years. Losing Bautista will be a really good thing for the club, frees up money and rids the team of an egotistical, overrated and cocky player. I sure as hell would not want him on my team. I hope he goes to like Milwaukee or something. An Indian-Cub WS will be fantastic, 2 long suffering fanbases and teams vying for a WS championship which they haven't seen in a LONG time. I am rooting for the Cubs because, unless you are an Indian fan, how can you not. No doubt in my mind the two best teams in the MLB are Cleveland and the Cubs.
