Weak bunt from a guy who needs to be much better at that. He’s been a tweener for his entire career and he can’t even accomplish the most basic task.

Danny Jansen is the hero.

But what a fundamentally flawed team.

Jesus that was bad baseball but the Jays got it done. Hopefully they can get out of their heads and start playing decent ball again.

Schneider has definitely put his mark on what he can but much of the responsibility falls on the players IMO.
I agree and I'd still take him over Montoyo but he's still made some questionable decisions where I'm not sure I want them giving him the job after this season and not putting him back as bench coach.

Like Buck said, they don't work on the fundamentals enough

Hate them. The frickin BLUEJAYS should not be wearing bright red jerseys. Throughout the entire game my brain was telling me the Cubs were the Jays.

Bo should have been bunting in the top of the 10th. Problem is that Bo has probably never been asked to lay down a bunt in a high pressure situation in his life. Guys who have been head and shoulders above their colleagues throughout their lives can get away with poor fundamentals. It’s biting him now though. Vladdy is the same.

Espinal had no excuse though.

I know a lot of people here weren't big fans of Stroman but this is awesome to see

Just awesome.

Stroman is one of those guys, great for a while but wears thin eventually.

He gave the Jays some really good seasons and of course had that miraculous comeback in 2015 which lead to what we all remember…the bat flip. He doesn’t pitch like he did for 6 solid innings that game and that legacy moment never ever happens.

Will always have a soft spot for him but glad he’s on another team now

Loved hearing Buck rant about that right after the play. Didn't hold back because it was a Blue Jays player.
