Blue Jays GDT: 2023 v13 | **WILDCARD SERIES GAME 2** Wed, Oct 4 | @ Min | 4:30pm ET/1:30pm PT | Berrios vs Gray

[Jimmy Firecracker]

Would be poetic of Minnesota to win their first series since beating the Moneyball A’s against the Moneyball Blue Jays.

I'm a gambler, I made well over 30 grand gambling over the last 2 years, but I don't bet against my teams as it's terrible karma and there's no enjoyment in winning those bets.

That's not a good gambling strategy. If you have an edge, bet it. You're clearly good at finding edges (if you're being truthful here), so why willingly forgo more money?

 

[ACC1224]

They’re coming back I can feel it.

I said Belt would likely have lead the league in K’s this year over a projected 162 game season or if he played close to 162 games and you mentioned how Babe Ruth lead the league in K’s multiple times over his career.

So you’re telling me that you WEREN’T comparing the 2?

No, you said that Belt was bad because he strikes out lots, ignoring the fact that he's statistically the best hitter on the team this year.

I pointed out that the best player in the history of the game led the league in strikeouts lots of times, which should show you how bad that argument is and that there isn't necessarily a correlation between striking out lots and being bad. It wasn't 'comparing them'. It was pointing out that your argument sucked.

 

[Cleetus]

Biggio smoked that guy lol

 

[CherryToke]

At least Biggio is out there throwing body checks

I wouldn't say any of the additions they made this season were "moneyball" transactions lmao.

 

[shaner8989]

Nice f***ing team. Legit trash. There is no f***ing way any of you can deny this.

 

[jetsforever]

At least we got a good hit in on Jax

 

[EpochLink]

Bullshit.

Making the playoffs is not good enough anymore, this team should be were Baltimore is now.

Absolute drizzling shits.

 

[tmlms13]

SHould have gone Scott Stevens on his ass, you've got 3 outs left in the season, who gives a f***

 

[BobColesNasalCavity]

Biggio lowering the shoulder and going north to south through the defender

 

[mikeyz]

They’re coming back I can feel it.

To the locker room to pop more champagne for playing an extra two games?

 

[Cleetus]

Kyle Lowry asking who's house, there is only one answer for that its Swerves house!

 

[jcs0218]

Biggio thought he was Scott Stevens or Todd Bertuzzi.

 

[Osmows OReilly]

So Schneider is definitely getting canned after this, right? His boneheaded decision lost us two playoff series and the circumstances were almost identical.

 

[Jimmy Firecracker]

Probably not but taking Berrios out when he was dealing was 100% a Moneyball style move. A reverence of stats that costs them.

 

[Budz]

Just thinking back to when small deficits didn’t feel insurmountable

I was in Left field for that game. Loudest I ever heard the dome.

You have a really good back pedaling game.

 

[ULF_55]

Poll should have been closed before the 1st. game was started.

Too many bandwagon votes ...

 

[napoleon in rags]

They’re coming back I can feel it.

Nah, that's the pepperoni sticks giving you gas..

 

[BehindTheTimes]

But but Varsho has a .354 WUYF rating since Aug. and and and he made a great turn around second base in game 97

I’ve been ripping this trade since day 1 and got bashed by many here.

THE TRADE WAS A COMPLETE f***ING JOKE.. FIRE EVERYONE

Hated the trade.

 

[EpochLink]

Where’s Drake when you need him

Any stats saying Belt is the best jays hitter is a pretty flawed if not ridiculous stats. Sometimes you have to watch the games. I'm not surprised at all to see Belt struggling against the best pitchers in playoffs.

Because a man's gotta have a code.

Anyway, congrats on your win but let's move on already.
