Blue Jays GDT: 2024 v3 | Tue, May 14 | @ Bal | 6:30pm ET/3:30pm PT | Bassitt vs Bradish
- Thread starter The Nemesis
- Start date
Baltimore started rebuilding earlier and stopped rebuilding a couple years after the Jays. They SHOULD be miles ahead of everyone given how dogshit they were for so long.
KC has been pretty good for 31 games. They also lost 96 last year. Let's maybe hold off on them.
Cleveland never actually rebuilt. They're just a weird team in a shit division.
This stuff is still pretty dumb. It was obvious when Montoyo got fired and the lineup construction and bullpen approach changed immediately that the manager does in fact have a ton of input into those decisions.

Was the first base ump even looking at Perez in that AB? He fully swung despite being HBP
Yeah, if you hold the barrel of the bat back while your hands go ALL THE WAY AROUND... that's very clearly a full swing.

Woof, this offence is garbage. Somebody should get fired sooner or later. Too bad you can't fire Vladdy or something.

I’m really quite upset that I’m wasting my time watching this game, even though I’m currently watching at work on company time

At least he hasn't consumed the power-sapping potion that the rest of the team chugged down before the season

Because he lost faith in the approach and decided to go back to his roots. Look at his 2019/2020 data, more GBs, more opposite field approach. I saw someone mention this on reddit + provided this link with Jansen’s comments speaking on this.

As a Senators fan, I know a badly constructed roster. And this is a badly constructed roster.
Unwatchable trash. f***ing disgraceful top to bottom 1 through 9 every single f***ing game
Glad we signed IKF and KK. Real smart

Gausman, Berrios, Manoah, Kikuchi, Romano, Garcia, Bichette, Varsho, Kirk, Jansen, Vlad.
The Jays have 10+ major assets to get back top dollar if we go full nuclear on a rebuild. I'd do it. Because even if Springer, Vlad, and Bichette start performing and they have .780-.790 ops type seasons, I still don't have faith they can perform in the playoffs. If the actual core isn't good, all of the supporting pieces won't make a difference. May as well rebuild.
The only thing worse then not making the playoffs is winning 83-84 games, missing the playoffs and not getting back top assets at the deadline.

Caleb made a great point post-game. These hitters do not adjust. They're up there swinging for the fences, not waiting for their pitches, making poor decisions. This team has gone 28 games scoring less than 5 runs a game, most in the league. Atkins has to be on his last legs. He banked on this lineup, and now the team is proving you can't trust his judgment.
