Blue Jays GDT: Opening Day!

Another day and another game where team goes 0- double digits with players left on base. Then your best player whow wants a billion dollars swings at the 1st pitch and finishes 0-4 when you need him the most

The most puzzling thing about this season is it looks like they'll let Atkins trade Bassit, Vlad and Bo and handle the rebuild

Rogers has been full on incompetent with the Jays. It's almost like their business model counts on the team losing money or something. What a worthless sack, glad I turned my back on them when I did. Now I just need to Hope Rogers doesn't tank my Leafs for another 20 years and make SN even worse than it is already.
 
I would like to see Springer moved up in the lineup and Davis sent down. Barger or Clase can be called up. Davis provides nothing. I would rather have a speedy player than him.

The big three have to do a lot better. If all three have an OPS above .800, then the team is likely has two more wins.

Jays are getting on base well, but they aren't getting timely hits and homeruns. I was surprised to find out they are 3rd in the league in doubles.

Left on base so far this season

Gimenez 23
Santander 19
Kirk 16
Bichette 15
Roden 14
Guerrero 14
Clement 12

Runners left in scoring position

Roden 7
Gimenez 7
Clement 5
Bichette 5
Springer 4
Kirk 4
Giminez has been so bad. Had the one good game but been horrendous in every other
 
The other 4 hitters are Clement, Heinemann, Straw, and Davis Schneider. Kirk is the obvious guy to be batting 5th and basically any manager would have him there.
Was he the obvious guy yesterday and the day before that? Particularly with Springer hitting so well? Kirk left a ton of men on base this series. He's only got 2 RBI's in 31 AB hitting 5th. Clement has 4 RBI in 19 AB, Springer has 5 RBI in 29 AB. I'd rather have them hitting ahead of Kirk tbh. Kirk has one of the worse OBP (.250) and OPS (.540) on the team. Any manager with two brain cells to rub together wouldn't have slow, empty calorie hitting Kirk in the 5th spot. But then again, we know about the aptitude of this manager.
 
And yet they should have won yesterday's game if not for Captain Idiot the Manager.

I just wonder how long will they keep sticking with him? All this competitive window was wasted with Montoyo and Schneider as the managers. Kinda pathetic if you think about it. But I am also pissed at Atkins for not being able to get that 2nd thumper. The offence needs to score more runs to take the pressure off the bullpen and Captain Idiot the Manager.
 
Rain threatens tonight's tango. Lucas vs Fitts .

Great timing on the Vladdy extension to avoid further questions about the atrocious series in New York.

Conflicting reports on Lucas or Berrios.
