I don't think his D has been as good this year either. He has taken bad routes to many balls.
Overall a down year for him - and the club should be assessing if he truly is the centre fielder of the long-term.

Thankful that one stayed in the park. Why can't our number 9 guy get a timely hit?

9 hitter for the Indians rips an rbi double off the wall with two out.

Too bad we havent got hits like that

[Senator Clay Davis]

Just get out of the inning with the lead.

The fact that the announcer said Bautista and Carrera both have outstanding arms leads me to believe he hasn't watched a single Blue Jays game this season.

[Roof-Daddy]

Wow

If they try to retool by dealing Donaldson im gonna freak out.

What a clutch player he is

Man, JD is just sick.

[nik-]

Donaldson is on another level compared to the rest of the team right now.

[flames_fan_down_under]

Thank god for Josh Donaldson.

[Crumpy-Gunt]

Amazing play. Gotta love Donaldson. Really hope he stays

[cross16]

If the rest of the team could channel 75% of what Donaldson has brought to this series they would not be down 0-3.

What!? That is just not going to happen. MVP who has two more years of arbitration. You just don't trade that away. Ever.

One batting .183 for the year too. Story of the series - our pitcher makes one mistake and it gets belted. Kluber continues to miss location of fastballs with two strikes and we can't even put it in play.

Sanchez has vastly outpitched Kluber, but the results barely show it. The Jays have to take advantage of a tired Kluber before they yank him.

Didn't he sign a two year deal? I think he's signed for next year then has one more year of arbitration.

You're right.

My point still stands though.

Jose Bautista: Would you call the decline precipitous, or just steep?

[cross16]

That's unlucky for Bautista. he was all over that pitch, barely missed it.

[JayP]

Jose misses another hanging breaking ball. What an awful postseason for him.

[Senator Clay Davis]

Somebody get Jose a Booster Juice.

[flames_fan_down_under]

God dammit we need more runs.
