LOL, Vogelbach again.

I think the new slogan is soon gonna be #TOTHEFLOOR

Something does not make sense here. Something is off. Why is Jano sitting 2nd game in a row?

I dunno, he did pinch hit in yesterday's loss and drove the only run in.

I am scratching my head, man, I don’t understand these decisions. It’s almost like Galaxy Brain Keefe over there. It’s not hard, put your best/hottest hitters out there as much as possible.

 

[Eyedea]

But it brings up the theory, how much input does he have in setting the lineup?

Because on a struggling offensive team, if you get a 10 run outburst with a certain lineup, you should try to repeat it especially trying to win your first series in a long time. But nope they reverse back to non-hitting Springer in leadoff and take Jano out of the lineup for freakin Vogelbach who is useless as tits on a bull.

If this was all run by spreadsheets, you’d get an entirely different lineup than what he’s doing.

Discoverer’s mentioned it before, but the fact that the lineup drastically changed in optimization when Schneider came in after Montoyo is direct evidence that the manager has some sway.

 

[CabanaBoy5]

I don't even

Is this serious? Vogelbach and Kirk in, Jansen out??

[tmlfan98]

Jano staying healthy will never be anything more than a dream fml

 

[Bjindaho]

So hit him 9th?

I assume they're giving Vogelbach a fair look (with regular PAs) before DFAing him. It is the only reasonable explanation at this point.

As much as i love the guy, i just don't know how you commit to him as he's a free agent...

 

[Discoverer]

Jansen? If he's having back spasms, there's no way he should be in the lineup. Having him for the whole season is WAY more important than having him today.

No, Vogelbach

 

[MK78]

Fatty 1 (Vogelbach) and Fatty 2 (Kirk) cannot drive in a run from 3rd base. with 1 out.

 

[MK78]

Varsho grabs a homer from over the fence!

 

[canucksfan]

I still don't understand why they brought back KK when Varsho can easily handle CF. A bat in LF would have been much better.

 

[djdev]

how do any of you actually watch this team anymore? watching paint dry would be like game 7 stanley cup final in overtime compared to these guys.

 

[shaner8989]

Kirk is such a fat pos. f***ing loser sucks. Why is he still here.

 

[Anthrax442]

watching them is so dreadful

I enjoy watching baseball and only really enjoy watching Blue Jays games (aside from the playoffs).

Also, I have watched the Jays, Leafs and Raptors through both their tough times and good times. Suffering through mediocrity is what makes a true fan appreciative of success.

Has become unwatchable

 

[The Nemesis]

Has become unwatchable

Then don't watch!? It's not that difficult of a concept.

I’ve been fading hard the last couple weeks. Still had a glimmer of hope but that’s almost completely gone now.

200 iq play leaving Vogelbach in vs Coulombe

i mean for me it has less to do with wins and losses and more just being a terribly boring product.
