Even splitting this series would've been great with Texas and Seattle still playing 7 games against each other. That's the only thing the Jays have going for them now is that 7 games between those 2 will be loses so if the Jays can somehow string some wins again then it might work out.

I think he has incredibly poor pitch recognition, just doesn’t know what the pitch is so he’s guessing when he swings.

And not just losing. They got the s**t kicked out of them every game. It's just sad.

Yeah that's why he strikes out so much with breaking balls outside the zone on the left. He doesn't know what's coming at him he's just swinging away. He actually really reminds me of the scene in major league when they first see Pedro hitting bombs out of the park then they start throwing him breaking balls and he looks like a fool.

Wow, critical series and the Jays got absolutely curbstomped for four straight days.

Really didn't like Springers comments about the booing last night. He was fine with it and agreed they deserved it but then amazingly went on to say they are doing their best, nothing to change, the wins just aren't there. Like wtf?

I’ve come to the conclusion that the Jays are truly terrible

I stupidly thought 1-3 was probably the worst they would do. Instead they get swept and not just by a bit - 35-9 right now. Would be interesting to see how bad this series is in terms of the past few years, can’t imagine a worse one. Just disappointing, the announcers are just deflated.

Bring back the stupid jacket but please, for the love of god, smash every single iPad in the dugout. Focus on what is front of you. Don’t over complicate ####.

Rangers making amends for 2015/16 and stomping on the Jays throats.

Jays are absolutely cooked. The math may still be there but there's no way this lifeless bunch of ####s care enough to even try. Blow this sucker up.

Lowe is showing more spunk up 7 in the top of the ninth than the Jays have showed in all four games combined.

Pretty much exactly what I was thinking.

Sorry for the lack of clarity.

They exploded over and over all over us and left us completely drenched in a sea of…

The first time in Jays history they've been swept in a 4 game series at home.

Did I hear that right?

If so, superb timing.
