I think the Jays are a team that will reach .500 one of these days....but they are not a play off team
I agree, were the Jays really ever WS contenders??

1-If, 2 years ago, the Texas Rangers do not make those 3 consecutive errors , the Jays are eliminated from the playoffs. Jays had horse shoes up their butts that night.

2 If , last year , Buck Showalter does not have a brain fart and brings in Zach Britton , very good chance the O's win the wild card game. Jays had horse shoes up their butts that night.

That's baseball.

If the Jays didn't blow the first two games of the 2015 ALDS because they were too tight, they would have won it in 3, instead of 5. They were clearly the more talented team that year. And Zach Britton? You still got to hit it, to win.

I wish I had posted this a few hours ago, because I thought Pillar would be benched....and he has been....also Tulo....big line up shuffle, I like it. Maybe my cousin Dwight Smith will be a star

I wonder if Pillar's gay slur comment has really affected him or is he just reverting to the player he really is. Batting average has dropped almost 60 points since the incident (.305 to .246) and his play in the field has been far from the "Superman" people have identified him with.

Of course it has!!
He was batting .300 and then suddenly goes 0 for 1 million.

Coincidence????!!!!!!!

Thank you gay community, anything else you wanna do to us???!!
(Jays were doing pretty good until you laid the Pillar guilt trip on him)

JB leading off in a new look lineup. Worked last year, might as well try again. Leading the Rangers right now.

Please tell us what Gibbons strategy was and how it failed.
Well, Gibby was responsible for putting Steve Pearce in left field and making him play that fly ball into a home run....:rolleyes:

Is this the same Steve Pearce who went 3 for 3 in the win and over his past 5 games has gone 9 for 17 with 6 RBI's with a home run and 2 doubles and 4 runs scored.

And once again our "little" guys are carrying this team (Goins and Barney with 5 game-winning RBI's)

I'm starting to wonder, should we just dump Travis and keep Goins at 2nd base??

Not if I'm the GM. I understand he's had lots of injury problems, but it's impossible to say if that will keep happening.

This kid is a very humble kid with a great attitude. If I'm the GM, he gets a long leash with me.

Fillipo, a little less ripple please.

There was no new damage to Travis's knee, just particulates. He consistently hits doubles, no other player does that. Pillar has to ramp up his offensive numbers otherwise he's just the interim until Anthony Alford is ready.

The dark horse is Sanchez, no one can predict if he can recover.

So we win 2 out of 3 and we're still 2 games back.

*sigh* :(
