Regardless of where you are on the optimism/pessimism scale, i think we can all agree getting booed off the field on opening day is a bad look.

It's just one game so it means nothing but we have seen the same problems as last year. 1st hitter doesn't get on base. Springer looks terrible and should hit 7th, 8th or 9th if he even should be in the lineup. Bullpen looks as terrible as it did last year and it looks on the field as it looks on paper. On a positive note the defense is good.
Not sure what's the point of getting Santander if you are going to have him bat 3rd and Vlad 2nd. You must have guys on base when they show up at the plate so the pitcher can't throw around. Bo should be 2nd, Vlad 3rd and Santander 4th. Bo has to be back to 2021-2023 Bo or it's going to be a long season.

Starting pitching wasn’t as advertised but hitting and defence is in midseason form.

Fans were promised competitive baseball and all we got today was an ass kicking.
Blue Jays front office, players and managers need were on notice, this is terrible. Why would fans show up to a bad product? The boos were justified today.

Neither one is going to need another job. They clearly aren’t going anywhere.
He’s had 17 since the first pitch.
In other news, no biggie. Just got the first of 76 out of the way.

It’s only one game but disappointing that it happened on opening day with optimism high and a large crowd. They will get better starting pitching tomorrow and hopefully better bullpen from our high leverage guys. But, I’m afraid with this offence we’re going to see more losses than wins.
Having said that, Atkins has to be the most inept clueless moronic manager on the planet. The farm system is bereft of high end talent, he hasn’t fully addressed the lack of home runs, and has no clue how to build a team. But hey, fans can enjoy the experience of the renos while being oblivious to the crap product he puts on the field.

Hey - we could be the Angels. Had Nicky Lopez (MI) on the mound today to mop up against one of the worst rosters of all time... in an 8-1 loss to the W-Sox.

We might be. They had Trout and Ohtani in their prime. We have Vladdy & Bo, and we will let them walk in their prime.

On a lighter note, I see Budweiser has given up on trying to make beer.

Berríos, Blue Jays Get Blown Out on Opening Day - Blue Jays Talk
Jeff Blair and Kevin Barker break down the Blue Jays' 12-2 Opening Day loss vs. the Orioles at the Rogers Centre. They take your calls and texts, and discuss what is worthy of overreacting to after Game 1 of 162 - should fans be worried about the batting order, or about José Berríos? Does this go back to offseason roster construction? Afterwards, Sho Alli and Roger Lajoie (42:52) continue taking your calls and texts, and get to the vibe down at the ballpark (until the first Orioles home run), and get into the recent discussions around Vladimir Guerrero Jr. and a potential contract extension.
