We need 1 or 2 more guys to stay hot for the season though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They had to start the runner on that play. Fisher has decent speed and with Alford on third, it's unlikely that Suzuki would have even tried to throw him out. They had to stay out of 2 on that play and it was a bonehead move to allow it to happen. I generally support the manager, but that was a bad decision by Montoyo and it cost the Jays the W....

Suzuki has a noodle arm. I run like a snail and can probably steal a bag on him. Everything Montoyo did has started to infuriate me and a lot of fans. Putting Shun in again to get torched. Not taking advantage of free bases. And this... Look at his stupid face while the ump goes right at the dugout. Sometimes you need to back up your team and take the damned ejection. He just stood there all confused and just ate it all up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilbur Posted July 30, 2020 Share Posted July 30, 2020 Looks like the Jays aren't playing the Phillies this weekend. https://www.cbc.ca/sports/baseball/mlb/mlb-coronavirus-blue-jays-series-in-doubt-phillies-1.5669022 I wonder if they'll play someone else, a la Yankees and Orioles during the week.

Down by the River Posted July 31, 2020 Share Posted July 31, 2020 (edited) So the Marlins went out when they were in Atlanta. I mean, I understand that most professional athletes are a bit thick in the head... but how stupid can you be. The season hadn't even started and they were already breaking protocol. I've been out in Atlanta. There is like NOTHING there except for strip clubs (talking about downtown Atl).

shiznak Posted August 1, 2020 Share Posted August 1, 2020 I’m starting to think most of the players I picked up in my fantasy league have Covid. I have Yelich, Bellinger, Reynolds, Vladdy, and Ohtani are all underperforming. Add to that I have Kershaw and Strasburg injured to start the season. Yet, some how I’m still winning this week (barely). This was an auction draft, btw. For those wondering how I got Yelich, Bellinger, Kershaw and Strasburg on my team.

Tre Mac Posted August 4, 2020 Share Posted August 4, 2020 Manfred should be fired ASAP. Just absolute atrocious planning and now you're starting to see water seeping through the cracks. A bunch of Cardinals got Covid so their plan was to rent a fleet a cars and have them drive themselves home?!?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wilbur Posted August 7, 2020 Share Posted August 7, 2020 Wilmer Font is probably wishing it was still 2019. I really liked him last year in the portion of the year he was here. He is getting absolutely lit up right now though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RUPERTKBD Posted August 8, 2020 Share Posted August 8, 2020 Is it too soon to start worrying about Vladdy? I haven't seen any real improvement at the plate and the 1st base experiment was downright embarrassing against the Red Sox yesterday.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the long run I like the move to 1B but now, with practice time at a premium, you wonder if it's the best timing. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
