2021 Blue Jays Season Thread

I'm still pissed off. Wow.

5 walks from "high leverage" relievers.

What a goddamn joke.

They delivered up to the 8th inning, giving their team a 5-1 lead. The hitters are more than doing their jobs, the pitching needs to do their job as well.

Kirk has joined the AAA team and is going to play some games. He's eligible to return from the 60 day IL next Thursday.

I'm excited, but until they fix that #### bullpen it feels like nothing else will move the needle at this point.

Ever time I look at the standings I get madder and madder. This team should be like 44-30 not 38-36.

Good news about Kirk. And the way Reese is hitting you'd have to think the Kirk/Mcgwire platoon is going to be the way forward at catcher. Lefty-righty to boot.

Add Jansen to the pile of trade chips that the Jays should've ####ing used by now to get some bloody bullpen help.

Vlad Jr with another home run, ho hum.

[Roof-Daddy]

I wonder, is 8 runs going to be enough for this piece of crap bullpen? Better keep Ryu in there for 130 pitches today.

[Inferno]

Yeah, it's pretty sad to not even feel comfortable with an 8-0 lead.

[Roof-Daddy]

Lol

Feeling safer at 12-0 now

[flames_fan_down_under]

More more more. Springer starting to cause problems for the opposition.

I want the shirt Lourdes is wearing

[Scornfire]

Better make hay here

[flamingred89]

Oh Grichuk. Needed something more than hitting into the double play there.

[flamingred89]

JFC. Umps going to ump.

[ForeverFlameFan]

Reese McGuire continues to have a hot bat. He's doing fantastic, and is a great 9th batter for us. Bonus that he's a LH batter.

You know, I rarely see the umpires screw up a call that’s not a ball/strike.

Give up home plate already, guys. Ejections would fall through the floor. Your lives would get easier.

Nobody would know who you were - any mistakes you made would be overturned by replay and instantly forgotten by all but the most die hard fans.

Orioles crappy hitters know they don't even need to swing at pitches from the crappy Jays bullpen.

I think they actually like being the centre of attention. That's why they won't give it up.

That's a HUGE out by Mayza with the bases loaded. He deletes all 3 inherited runners. Great job.

Haha. There's probably something to this. That's what the knock has always been on Joe West. Dude creates conflict where conflict doesn't need to be. And then there's the sideshow of Angel Hernandez. Just a bunch of divas.
