What you're saying would be logical if the beefcakes were having great years, each of them are vastly underperforming their to their potential.

Ok, sure, but it's just funny to me how the narrative changes as soon as they lose a game. Vladdy goes 0-4, and now he is fat and he sucks. Fine, the others for sure I will give you that.
 
Where are we at with Vladdy? I thought he'd be a consistent .900 ops guy. Can he still be that?
I think what we are seeing with Vladdy is the result of really never having had to overcome any struggle coming through the ranks. He's having trouble adjusting to pitchers which has never been an issue. They know how to pitch and have him chase so that even if he makes contact he'll put it on the ground most of time. He needs to start waiting on his pitch and stop chasing. Because he can make contact so easily he's never had to worry about swinging outside the zone. But now he's doing it to his detriment and needs to learn how to selective. Until, he can learn to do that I think this is the player he's going to be which would be incredibly disappointing. He's certainly not living up to that eighty power rating

This is what I think also affecting Manoah, he played all of 9 games between A & AAA.

He had no experience in professional baseball, and experienced very good success in 2021 & 2022 after being called up to the Jays.

No experience of struggling or adjustment in the majors.
 
The offense is unwatchable trash. Period

Welp, I’ve officially had enough of Varsho. I don’t care about his great defence, he can’t hit
But but Moreno sucks guriel sucks. He makes nice catches. He saves a run here and there.

f***ing bs. f*** Varsho. f*** the trade. It’s one of the worst trades in jays history. Number prospect in baseball for a pos who shouldn’t be in the majors
 
LOL, Espinal pinch hit for Varsho. One guy that cant hit for another guy that can't hit. Who's next, Kirk?

Well at least the pitching was good. One run in eighteen innings isn't winning you anything. This team is just missing something. I don't get why they can't put anything together. We need to bring in another big bat and very very soon if they want to have any shot at making some noise. I just have zero faith in this team
