Blue Jays: 2015 edition

[mandrill]

tulo is potentially better on the figures than Revere, but hasn't done much to show he is an elite hitter yet.

As well, the move clumps Pillar, Goins and Revere in the batting order and places them directly in front of Josh, Jose and Eddie. So table-setters and run producers are combined.

 

[shack]

Revere to leadoff today, Tulowitzki drops to fifth behind Encarnacion.

I can live with that. Let's see what happens.

 

[AK-47]

I've been impressed with Goins improved hitting as of late

 

[Butler1000]

I really don't think it matters whether it's Tulo or Revere hitting leadoff with this line up.

 

[AK-47]

This is just fucking unreal!!!!!

 

[Dartman]

Kaboom kaboom

[AK-47]

Goins with 2 insurance runs.

This team is awesome from top to bottom

From Twitter this afternoon, updated Blue Jays attendance for 2015

2,094,587 in 66 games (31,736 per game)

Only games with any sort of decent ticket availability are the Cleveland matchups this week

Add ~670-690K for the last 15 games and season attendance is over the 2,700,000 mark.
If A.A. builds it (a competitive team) the fans will come.

This is like '92/'93 all over again, this city is going to go absolutely nuts during the playoffs, and if they win the world series the city will shut down for a week for constant parties and celebrations.

 

[AK-47]

I dont see any weaknesses in this team. Like NONE!!

You could argue maybe not enough offence from 2nd baseman, but Goins seems to get key hits all the time now, so I dont even think thats a weakness anymore

 

[mandrill]

Yankees sweep hapless Braves and run up 38 runs in 3 games, including a 20-6 finale!

Friggin' pinstripes. Trying to copy us.

Add ~670-690K for the last 15 games and season attendance is over the 2,700,000 mark.

In '91, '92 and '93 they drew over 4,000,000!

And 3,375,000 in '89 (the year the dome opened) and 3,885,000 in '90!

The dome has roughly 4000 fewer seats now, after consolidating lots of suites and restaurant closures. They realistically can draw 3.7 million over a full season of this kind of popularity. Unfortunately they already had about 50 home games done when the moves were made and the ticket madness started.

Here is every single Blue Jay home run this season montage'd to Johnny Cash

 

[Dawgger]

Indians for 3 starting tonight. Indians, 8-2 in their last 10, currently on a 5 game winning streak. They appear to be enjoying their role as "spoilers".
Should be a good series.

 

[Nad Smith]

Tulo could hit .190 and he is still an asset.....the keystone defense of him and Ryan Goins is a joy to behold.
