Agreed I wouldn’t be surprised if he’s played his final game for them

And it sounds like by making those tweets he's violated MLB's social media policy. Especially the ones on Barger who I think he's mistaken for Martinez because he said he's already been popped for it which Barger obviously hasn't.

Kirk is rapidly becoming one of my favourite players. That is the physique of an Elite Athlete! Watching him in that rundown was fantastic. The only thing he didnt do was double over to try and catch his breath while asking for a time-out.

Brilliant stuff.

That was so weird. Not sure why Clement would be bunting. He’s not a big strikeout guy and he’s quite fast making him tough to double up. Very odd.

Back to this Pham jackass. Obviously not his first incident nor his last. 8 teams in 3 years, 11 years in the league and he’s played for 10 teams. Stabbed in the back at a strip club fined by MLB for slapping an opponent before the game over Fantasy Football the previous year. Challenged fans and former teammates to fights over the year.

Rolling out the over used “disrespect” defense over a catchers strike zone interpretation.

Send Varland and Berrios both back to Minnesota imo.


With how good his stat page looked, I am shocked how bad Varland has been as a Jay.

Hoffman:

3 games in 5 days before the terrible Dodgers outing where he gave up 5 walks:
3 IP, 1 hit, 0 runs 2k.

4 games in 7 days post LA game:
4 IP, 1 hit 0 runs 9k.

Lights out before and after that game.

As mentioned earlier, Hoffman publicly said earlier this year he doesn’t do well with too much rest. His terrible outing was after 6 days between appearances before the LA game.

Maybe Schneider should listen to his players, and his overthinking or under thinking or relying on stats could come and haunt this team come playoff time as it did vs Minnesota.

Don’t forget that the Yankees and Red Sox still have 7 games against each other. The closer they are in the standings, the more they’ll be trying to beat the #### out of each other. Ideally, either team would go 4-3.

The Yanks have hit 8 homeruns tonight. They legit cannot score runs without the long ball.

Strange to see a bases loaded hit off the wall result in only one run and an out. Basically the same result if the fielder made the catch for a sac fly. Then the Jays also had the very rare bunt double play. Thankfully there were some other clutch hits so those plays didn’t matter.
