I didn't think we'd be reduced to only two hits tonight. Friggen nuts.

The funny thing is we have a solution at shortstop on the roster already.

CF requires the most range. Gurriel barely has enough range for left. Teo is fast, but CF is a more important position than RF. Do you really trust him playing a premium position when we’re in a playoff race?


Only for a short time.Scare the crap out of them for a few starts,then move them back to make them play LF/RF better going forward.Teo cant run right now so it cant be done,but they should try it with both of them at some point.


It’s not something we can afford to do at this point in the season. We’re in a close playoff race, and there’s not much time left.


Doesn,t have to be this season,but at some point they should try it.
These guys have fallen off defensively.

Broadcast crew is going to pretend that that was a hit by Fletcher? Bo gets to it easy, and hollywoods the throw high. Base hit!?

I’m guessing Teoscar and Gurriel played piss poor outfield yesterday and got benched? This lineup is atrocious

The way they judge hits and errors these days is a joke. Bo should easily have 30 errors this season.

I wonder how serious this team is about winning.

The number of games may be finite. But the frustration has no parameters.

This team is so frustratingly streaky.

You would think after two important series wins vs division opponents they would take off. Instead they turn into pumpkins.

Don’t think so. Teo is injured. Gurriel may have just been given a day off because he’s been struggling the past week.

Keep in mind that: 1) they got in from Boston at like 4 am. 2) For some reason, teams often struggle in their first game back after road trips. And then today they just faced a great pitcher. No excuses tomorrow, so hopefully they get it together.

Sad effort. To be honest I think I am o-fer in both Raptors and Jays so whatever vibes were provided by the festivities were nullified by my bad juju

Highlight was Joe Carter in the DJ Booth Dancing to "Jump Around"

This team has hardly beat any good teams whom are playing well this year and the Angels aren't even that. Given our piss poor record against teams above .500 I'm pessimistic on our chances this season

:banghead: Maybe if they moved Bo to 2nd they would win more.
Its also messing with Bo,s confidence in general.
This move could be a huge one if they did it

I think if they do that, it'll happen next season, not this close to the playoffs.

Return to Toronto Blue Jays
