Mateo is a monster on the base paths. This error could be very costly.

Their luckier AND they're also better than we. Double Jeopardy. Double unhappiness.

Vlad somehow getting close to a .260 average. Someone should be fired because his development is all out of wack. Most perplexing thing about the Jays is him.

Jays made it interesting but they don't stack up to the Orioles. They just don't. Rutschman with a great AB and moved the runner and then Mountcastle did what he does against the Jays.

Vlad could learn a thing or two from the Orioles and what a professional AB should look like.

The Jays should do all they can to acquire him, not because he might be good for them but he is costing them about 5 wins a year minimum playing against them. 41 RBIs in 47 games, crazy

So is it just individual selfishness by the Jays players that they can't do what the Orioles do? Seems so simple.

Hopefully the Orioles blow this open more so Schneider doesn't bring in Swanson and Hicks and tire them out for Game 3 and 4.

Jays aren't coming back.

That, poor leadership, and low IQ. The trifecta of ineptitude.
