Blue Jays 2022 Thread

Yep they look good and could knock Jays out of post season play. Pitching did the Jays in again yesterday with the bullpen blowing the lead. Monday it was the starter with Kikuchi being Kikuchi.
The Jays picked up yet another outfielder, JBJ who was released by Boston. I don't get it. They needed top notch pitching and missed the boat. The only way they can now compete against the top teams with their pitching is to have the best all around hitting team in baseball. To achieve that several players have to get hot which won't happen if most players are playing part time.

Bring up top prospect pitcher ,Ricky Tiedeman, for relief , he's blowing everyone away in minors, Let's see how he handles ML batters
Yup + one more performance to underscore that the Jays do not have enough pitching to go deep
Bichette is 15th in hits in all of MLB this year. He was 2nd in all of MLB last year. He is 23rd in RBIs in the majors this year and was 15th last year.
Who would you expect to get back if he was traded?
BTW, do you have stats that show how many rallies he kills and as compared to other players or is this simply an anecdotal observation?
The Guardians (I hate that name) showed the Jays how to win today. Aggressive, stealing bases and good starting pitching.
Cleveland, Baltimore, Tampa, Minny, Seattle and the White Sox will be in a dog fight the rest of the year for the wild card spots.

Not necessarily. They are on par with those teams so it will be who is the hottest of those teams over the rest of the season.
They are currently leading all of those teams.
Ricky, in his first season of pro ball, turns 20 on Thursday, and has 10 days of experience above A ball. I doubt he's ready for The Show this year,
Ricky Tiedemann minor league stats
Trade him for an ace pitcher or a reliver that can throw 100mph,,, maybe I'm talking out of frustration with this team, lol

Possibly, but not this year. Likely he starts next season in AA, and your post #603 will be applicable next June.
interesting..... ex Jay, 100 mph Ken Giles was DFA'd by Seattle and chose free agency. He is available, should Jays get him back?
He's had Tommy John surgery in 2020, he's lost a few mph on his fastball from

Then that implies that the opposing GM would have to place a higher value on the rally killer than you do.
