Blue Jays GDT: 2021 v12 | Next: Thu, Sept 30| vs NYY | 7:00pm ET/4:00pm PT | Kluber vs Ray

[Suntouchable13]

We need the next 3 games. Seattle is also on our ass, can't forget them. Critical to win the next 3.

 

[TGB]

I don't like this. Suddenly they're missing good pitches to hit. Makes me think they're tired and losing focus.

And Springer in center...good lord. Nevermind sticking him out there at all, let's stick him in the most demanding outfield position first.

 

[as Pure as Evil]

of course the yanks are up 7 zip already

Charlie had shirts printed up for a reason.

Why can’t the Twins just bend over their season is over already. Also don’t they hate the Yankees lol

 

[Muston Atthews]

Great

 

[ShooterMikgaven]

Big yikes. Choking when it counts

 

[mikeyz]

It’s over boys.

 

[zeke]

 

[Brock Boeser Laser Show]

Well game over. This offense can't do anything right now and our starters aren't putting up zeros.

 

[Man Bear Pig]

It’s over boys.

Find another team then. Down 3 against the Twins? Get off the bandwagon.

"You walk that leadoff batter and more often than not he's going to come around to score."


The Leadoff Walk

Leadoff baserunners on 1st through any means score about 37% of the time. The "how" of them getting to first makes basically no significant difference (walk, single, hbp, dropped 3rd strike, error, etc)

That's not great. But it's also not "more often than not" by any stretch of the definition.

 

[Maestro84]

The Twins are becoming my most hated team. Bottle jobbed against the Yankees while up 5-0 and now they’re looking like the Dodgers while playing spoiler. F*** em

I'll take 37%. Look at last night, for example.

 

[Suntouchable13]

Offence has to get going, not good enough at all.

 

[Seath The Scaleless]

We're a team....

 

[Man Bear Pig]

Offence has to get going, not good enough at all.

The offense died the moment they walked into the Trop. Fruit juice stadium is a curse.

 

[Brock Boeser Laser Show]

There is just too many passengers. Need some unsung heroes to go on a bit of a heater. Can't expect the same guys to carry you every night.

 

[SpezDispenser]

Let's f***ing go!

 

[zeke]

OK stop being losers beat this shitty team already.

 

[The Nemesis]

I know I harp on Buck a lot, but what the hell was that? Buck Martinez, the patron saint of "well you just have to stop hitting into the shift and go the other way" or "Sometimes you have to not try and hit the 3-run homer and just slap it through a hole and keep the line moving." is now saying "well you can't change how you hit. You are what you are and you have to keep doing what you're doing."?

Either we've crossed into the bizarro universe or he's completely lost his marbles.

Jays motto "when in trouble swing at everything"

 

[Brock Boeser Laser Show]

Making this guy look like Randy Johnson.


Just shitty at bats.

According to Buck it's what they've done all year, so they just have to keep doing it.
