Blue Jays GDT: 2022 v13 | PLAYOFFS: Wild Card Rd | Gm #2: Sat, Oct 8 | vs SEA | 4:00pm ET/1:00pm PT | Ray vs Gausman

[Cloned]

On the plus side, hockey season starts next week and we can go back to stressing about our respective teams.

IMO the key turning point was that collision between Bo and Springer that resulted in 3 runs in.

 

[Woodman19]

I'm a big believer in the psychology of sportd. As such, sfter Merrifield was hit, I send Gausman out to hit their next batter, first pitch. Thrown out by the ump or I pull rijght after. Protect your players, I didn't like thr look of the hit on Merrifield, nor the lack of response.

Other than that, they need legitimate set up guys. It's not fajr to have your closer get 6 outs with bases loaded. 4 Outs max in the pinch, not 6.

They need more than bats, they need arms. We've known this for years.

Most importantly, they need a new outfield. Teams like Tampa are so good because they make you beat them t win, they don't give spot you free outs with bad defense.

It was the homerun in the 5th

Jays = Leafs. Third period collapse. Pitching is atrocious. Need a new GM moving forward.

 

[Blitzkrug]

A shot to the outfield ties this game. Chapman has wheels.

You were right about Cal Raleigh.

 

[Forgotusername]

Yeah I was thinking that. The Jays seem to be built the same way as the Leafs.

Can we stop with the Leafs comparison, not everyone here is a Leafs fan.

 

[PromisedLand]

these f***ing umps

Nope the mouthbreathers have to remind us

 

[ChuckNorris4Cup]

I've been critical of the bullpen all year, they're just not strong enough for postseason ball, they need harder throwing arms just the way the game is now, need more of that 100mph speed you just do.

 

[fahad203]

Nope the mouthbreathers have to remind us

Remember when Liverpool came back against Milan

Does that help ?

 

[Da Cool Rula]

They’re children before they become professional athletes. Some of them still act like children at times.

Growing pains. Its definitely a process

Important, yes. More importattly than some deeper arms? Not in my estimation.

Better defense helps the pitchers perform. Not that we couldn't use another swing and miss stuff RP

 

[Blitzkrug]

Anger aside, Jansen battled that entire AB. Just didn't get anything to hit.

 

[All Mod Cons]

Oh my.

They went proper Leafs. Never go proper Leafs.

 

[PromisedLand]

F these umps. that wasn't a strike. FREAKIN JOKE

He has played his part. He was great behind the plates

 

[Blitzkrug]

And we're letting Tapia bat here...why?

Made slower by Montoyo’s absolute lack of teaching.

They had one of the best in 2nd half but yes harder throwers are needed.

Our backup OF is in after we lost 2 others to injury
