2 run lead in the 8th inning and 3 walks from your bullpen. Thats just unacceptable bull####.

Lol "Cascadia" team. This rationale drives me nuts living in Kelowna. Apparently I am supposed to cheer for the Canucks too even though I live 4.5 hours away and have zero connection to the city because I am in their tv rights zone.

Rain man's right there are a lot of drunk Jays fans at the games but the jays/Yankees series' are the only two weeks the mariners are relevant all year and Canadians still have a long ways to go to challenge for any obnoxious abroad titles.

I think calling Jays fans a 'national embarrassment' might be going just a tad overboard.

Jays fans are fantastic and they travel exceptionally well. Outside of the Redsox and Yankees I can’t think of a team better represented in visiting stadiums. There’s always going to be belligerents but that’s synonymous with all fan bases. The days of Griffey or Ichiro are gone, so I bet Mariners ownership love the extra 60000 tickets sold this weekend.

Jays weekend in Seattle is one of the best weekends of the year. A few drunken idiots doesn't ruin an awesome party and one of the coolest sporting atmospheres i have had the pleasure to be a part of.

Instead of just being salty Mariners fans could go out and just buy some tickets themselves.

Default 2019 Blue Jays Season Thread

I live in BC, I never go to Seattle and have zero connection to the city. I’ve cheered for the Jays since I was a kid as have most baseball fans in western Canada. It’s not a hard concept to understand, Canadians cheer for the Canadian team lol


I think Bichette has just been making these Mariner fans a bit envious

He has a point. I stopped going two years ago. What was once a very good boozy time had by all has turned into a drunken #### show. A competition of the biggest dbags BC and AB has ever produced in a competition to see just how intoxicated they can get at the game followed by some complete buffoonery in and around Pioneer Square until the bars close.

When you add that with the complete price gouging they started a few years ago (tickets and hotels are crazy), I find its better to hit up the California trips now. It’s ten times worse than when the roughriders come to Calgary and you all know how we all like that in Calgary.

He really doesn't have a point. And given literally the only thing you have ever done in your entire time on this forum is whine - especially about the Jays - you're just an extreme example of the type of "fan" that actually is embarrassing: the false flag whiner who only looks for the worst in everything about a team he actually hates.

Another double for Bo and he's 2/3 today.

Good grief kid.

The funny thing is, they showed a graphic a couple days ago and at that time, Vlad actually had better numbers than Bo since Bo arrived. Might have changed now that was a 2 or 3 days ago.

What a duo though.

You sound like someone whose never been there so you don’t have a ####ing clue what your talking about. It’s a turned into a frat party down there. 20 year old me would have loved it. 30 year old me, not so much. If I had kids I wouldn’t consider taking them into anything but the Sunday game of that series.

Jays have travel great anywhere on the west coast so it’s fun anywhere. I went to Denver this year and Oakland last year. Done with Seattle. The fake Jays fans are the frat boys that now make Seattle their annual pilgrimage.

I'm literally in T-Mobile Park right now you moron. Have been all weekend.

Take your whining to a forum of whatever team you actually do support. The only fake fan here is you.

I think I’m more excited for Bichette now that I am Guerrero. What a player.

Apparently Buchholz is back Tuesday. Will be nice to see if he’s a fit for next year.

You'd think an actual fan of this team would know that...

Santiago Espinal was called up to AAA mid season and didn't get off to a good start, but his line for the last 15 games in Buffalo is .327 / .373 / .400 / .773. plus he went 3 for 4 today so those numbers will rise a bit. He's now played 20 games total at AAA.

Not eye popping, but much better for sure.

He's the player the Jays got for Pearce last year.
