    Id give Varland a shot, he seems ok

    Too bad the rest of the team won’t be able to make it back to where it would matter.

    Do the Jays have an elite closer that they can rely on to win Game 7 of the World Series with a 1 run lead in the 9th inning vs the 9th batter yet?

    No?

    Fantastic.

    It’s amazing watching Jacob Misiorowski throw. And that’s what he does, he throws. All gas.

    He obviously wants to be a fireball starter because that’s where the big money will be for his career but one has to wonder how many times he can throw 100+ mph pitches before something snaps. He’s a big boy and I’m sure they’re attentive to his mechanics but if he wanted to be a closer, he could pitch 20 years and probably break every closer record ever recorded with a fraction of the strain on his arm.

    I’ve seen enough. John Schneider needs to be fired. His handling of the pitching staff is what’s killing this season. Fire him now, or there won’t be any coming back this season.

    That dope Schneider should be fired. He left Hoffman in and blew a 5 run lead in the 9th inning on the weekend. The Jays were on a win streak and it totally deflated the team. They haven’t won since. One lazy, stupid decision may have sunk this season. Hockey season isn’t even over yet, but the Jays season is on life support. What’s up next? Buffalo Bills Football? Of course, the draft and free agency will be a moderate distraction.

    Hoffman is sh!t, and so is Schneider who just let him blow the game. After 2 got on, the hook should have come out. Hoffman needs to be dealt for a broken bat and some used chewing tobacco.

    Its a tough spot, the Jays BP is heavily used, could have brought in seabold earlier, but he looked like a terrified deer in headlights. he wasnt shutting the inning down either.
    SP keep getting injured, killing the bullpen
    Hoffman is better suited at the 7th inning guy, seems to crumble under the 9th inning pressure.

    But its not always going to work out that way.

    They might have one in Varland

    Definitely don’t have one in Hoffman.

    Nice comeback tonight. Down 5 and end up winning 6 – 5. They’re now in a Wildcard spot and at .500. Lots of runway to catch up some more.

    Get through the injury issues and a lot of teams ahead of them will start to sweat. Bieber will be of help, when he finally gets over his injury problems. Someone needs to send pork chops to Vladdy to get him motivated.

    With Vlad, I would never say its about motivation. He comes off to me as the most give a shit player on the team.
    Its probably more decision based , plate discipline and he is chasing more, making more contact but its leading to less power.

    weird this comes up almost every season for him. in 2021 his best season he has the lowest chase contact. so yeah
