To put Bounce's point above into perspective, Toronto, Tampa, Seattle and Baltimore are all 4-6 in their last 10 games. It's almost as if everyone wants that 3rd seed.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's funny how a pitcher can paint the corner of a tiny strike zone from 60 feet and do it with action....but miss a 30 foot soft toss by a country mile.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gurn Posted September 29, 2022 Share Posted September 29, 2022 Strange how many 'double' mistakes are happening. Vladdy admires a ball, thinks homer- oops no homer, THEN doesn't stop at first, so gets thrown out at second- a double mistake. -And why all this watching the shot anyway?- Just run your ass towards first-then look for the ball. If it was going out, you can still see it leave while getting to first. Climber- throws away the ball THEN doesn't cover home plate. another double mistake. This stuff must be cleaned up- or this team won't go more than 1 round deep. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RUPERTKBD Posted September 29, 2022 Share Posted September 29, 2022 Also, for the life of me, I can't fathom the strategy against Judge by Mayza.... All series long, Jays' pitchers have refused to give in to AJ, in effect challenging to swing at borderline pitches. or take the walk....and then last night, Mayza throws a full count fastball right down the middle.... What changed? Yes, a walk would have set up first and second with nobody out, but you have Josh Donaldson on deck, who's hitting almost a buck under what Judge is, to say nothing about the difference in production... Just baffling. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 8th run definitely would not have scored, had he covered home as soon as he threw that one wide... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shiznak Posted October 1, 2022 Share Posted October 1, 2022 I’m not really sure who I want the Jays to play. The Mariners don’t have an elite ace like the Rays, but their rotation is deeper with Castillo, Gilbert, and Ray (who probably gets vaccinated, if they play in Toronto). Their lineup is kind of meh, aside from J-Rod, France, and to a lesser extent Suarez. They hit a lot more long balls than the Rays, but a lot less extra base hits. The Rays have a legit Cy Young candidate, but a weaker rotation. While their lineup doesn’t hit the long ball, they scraps for runs with extra base hits, walks, and by playing small ball.

I was in the same boat, so I just decided to stop hoping for a match up and instead hope the Jays go into the postseason playing their best... As far as Ray goes, I could be wrong, but I thought I saw somewhere that the vaccine requirement had been lifted.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RUPERTKBD Posted October 1, 2022 Share Posted October 1, 2022 BTW: Anyone else catch John Schneider dropping a couple of F-Bombs in his locker room speech yesterday? Hazel had to make a point of telling everyone she interviewed that they were live, after that... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
