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

[Scotianhab]

Berrios was pulled, and that was the inning that the Twins did all of their damage.

Poor decision to pull Berrios.

Then Guerrero Jr. made an idiotic move on the basepaths.

Berrios should not have been pulled but It didn’t matter, we weren’t Going to win only scoring 1 run in 2 games. Pitching was not the issue.

 

[saska sault]

The Jays went out without the smallest of queefs.

 

[EpochLink]

Jays-Padres trade 2.0?

Vladdy and Bo trade for Soto and Tatis?

We gonna pay Soto that big payday he’s seeking? Also, gotta load the roids for Tatis cause that’s the only way he performs better.

 

[Hannibal]

Hopefully the last i saw of Fatso Guerrero with a blue jays uniform.

 

[mikeyz]

No, you thought that an example that showed that lots of strikeouts doesn't necessarily = bad player meant that I was comparing Brandon Belt to Babe Ruth.

And talk about backpedaling.

You literally did!!!!.

It doesn't matter what cookie cutter, mundane statement you said afterwards. You literally compared them by mentioning Babe Ruth leading the league in strikeouts multiple times after I said that Brandon Belt was going to do that this year over the course of a projected 162 game season.

That is literally comparing the two.

Q: What is the opposite of clutch?
A: The Toronto Blue Jays.

1 win in their past 11 post-season games. Score a grand total of 1 run in 2 games this WC.
Brutal.

 

[ACC1224]

We scored 0 runs. Pulling Berrios was absolutely dumb. It didn't cost us the game.

This for me.

 

[Seath The Scaleless]

A Berrios perfect game wouldn't have been enough

Bats let the solid pitching down once again. Story of the season.

 

[Amadeus]

There was a stink around this team the entire year. Not a least but surprised at the outcome.

Give Click an opportunity to run this team.

 

[mikeyz]

There is no manager in the history of baseball that would have scratched Matt Chapman in the playoffs.

Espinal has 1 AB in the series and got a hit so not sure what you're on about there. Edit : 2-2 now.

And there is literally no manager in the history of baseball that would have pulled Berrios in that situation today.

The pitching was not the problem this series.

Both games were only 2 run deficits. That's peanuts. Like Buck said, you only need a bloop and a bomb.

They got no bomb.

 

[William Hylander]

Ultimately I think Rogers is to blame.

Its no surprise the only GM who began to butt heads with them is now the best executive in baseball. Rogers doesn't know what the hell they are doing and should stick to selling internet and phone plans and away from sports.

 

[Patmac40]

Please let that be the last game I see Schneider manage. I think the coaching staff and some management needs a rehaul, no excuses not getting more out of the offense that was there.

unfortunately there is one......

 

[ClarkSittler]

What a waste of such a great pitching staff. Sad.

 

[Forgotusername]

As usual posters who you never see posting in here are coming out of the wood work to dumb o the team. Was it disappointing? Yes it was. The pitching was great, the bats just couldn't get that big hit. It sucks, but that's baseball.

lolwut ?

 

[CokenoPepsi]

Are the blue jays like the maple leafs? Can’t seem to get it done in the playoffs?

Eh Leafs are a great regular season team the Jays not so much only getting in because of expanded playoffs

Mostly because people care and don't have to feel like you do where everything seems just fine.. Could say the same about the posters who think everything is just so peachy every year same results.

sports emotions isn't binary.

 

[BertCorbeau]

Team that struggled with offense and consistency all season struggled to get more than 1 run in two playoff games.

Kinda saw that one coming. Big disappointment this season. Wasted a great pitching staff and great bullpen

 

[LaPlante94]

Is it a realistic possibility we clean house and start fresh with a new President/CEO, GM and Manager? Seems like some good candidates out there ready to take over a GM position but I don't know enough about the other 2 positions or what they do in this league to know if better people are out there.

 

[William Hylander]

lolwut ?

Rogers is trash ownership, we've had one team win under this mega media ownership in the city and it looks like that was a complete one off fluke.

 

[habamillions]

Hope this is last of chapman in a jays uniform. Better not give him a huge deal. Only way is if he accepts his qo

 

[beleaf101]

Can't wait for all the press softball questions. They need to clean the front office and hire a manager

 

[GreytWun]

They just spent 230 million dollars on a team. This has nothing to do with Rogers...
