2025 Toronto Blue Jays Season Thread

This is a first place team eh? Sure doesnt look like it.

[ben voyonsdonc]

I just love Heineman so much.

[Hockey]

Starting to look like the Yankees defensively

[Sylvanfan]

This is what my Mens League Slowpitch games are like. Especially the terrible defense part.

[Blaster86]

Here's the Blue Jays team I expected in March. Just bad all the way down the line up.

Clock struck midnight, Barger is a pumpkin again.

[flamingred89]

That was an awful AB by Barger. I dont think a strike was thrown. Just swinging at Junk.

[Blaster86]

How has Loperfido looked in Buffalo? Might be time to give him and Barger the ol' swap'o'roni

Edit - Lauer get out of an inning with out giving up a run challenge impossible. Better trot him back out for the 6th. He'll turn the corner any inning now.

Barger has looked rough lately, but I wouldn't put this one on him. Lauer is pitching BP out there.

[flamingred89]

Varland and Hoffman with the rare double blown game. Their ####show last night has cost this game as well.

And of course the Red Sox fluke out a 9th inning win against the Orioles.

That last at bat was absolutely dreadful. This game isn't on him, but that at bat was not something you can have in a game.

Edit - holy ####, Schneider finally woke up and realised that his pitcher was ####ing awful.

[Sylvanfan]

How was Lauer still in there? He's tossing muffins.

[ben voyonsdonc]

Blue Jays pitchers have a future working in Italian restaurants because they are excellent at serving up meatballs.

Lauer turning into a pumpkin at the worst possible time.

All of them. Every single one of them.

This team kept a drunk driving #### head on the payroll for these pitching results.

Edit - it's a pitching staff of Berrioses. I'm gonna go play in the sun. Might check out some of the Brewers series just so I can say I was there when the Bluejays fell to the second Wildcard.

[flamingred89]

Shulman and Siddall are starting to #### on this team.

I think the fall from grace may be swift with this bunch.

[browna]

Jays playing a little fast and loose these days.
A good manager should rein them in a bit.
That will be my biggest concern, the manager. Him and Walker seem off more then they seem on with when to use the pen and with who. They let Hoffman sit for 7 days after he’s said he doesn’t want to rest more than 3 days, and scratch their head when he fluffs the first outing. Then they either keep him or others in too long. Bassit last night giving upa 6th inning home run and now 4 hr for Lauer.

This is even before we talk about the last two elimination games he’s been in he saw his team piss away a massive lead vs Seattle and then one of the worst mound pulls in Blue Jays history with some analytics guy in his ear and no confidence of his own.

How does he respond? Will he try and over manage this time around. Guys like Berrios and Rodriguez need to take it down a notch. Other guys need a kick in the pants. Either way I just don’t trust Schneider to have the experience to handle this success and these players adjusting to the nerves of trying to hold onto a first place lead down the stretch, and certainly not not in the playoffs.

I said it years ago and will say again, Schenider won’t be the manager when this team goes deep in the playoffs.

[ben voyonsdonc]

Lauer throwing back door cutters to right handed hitters is truly astonishingly stupid.

[flamingred89]

Vlad has been #### since he got back

[KelVarnsen]

A Toronto team crumbling under pressure, I’m shocked.

[flamingred89]

Umm. Why wasn't Heineman bunting?

Hey! A little bit of luck!

[flamingred89]

Oh Barger. Oh Dear. That was almost as bad as the previous AB.
