And you should move on because you have no reading comprehension skills seeing as you can't even figure out the topic and point I'm actually discussing. Not sure how you can say I don't know the the nature of sports when you can't even keep track of the actual topic being discussed is...lol.
Moving on is your only hope in sports discussions. No knowledge about the business in sports.

Too bad the Blue Jays can't play with some of that fire you guys are arguing with.

John Schneider has the capabilities and manoeuvrings of a high school baseball coach, complete with brain farts because he has to complete grading his science class test scores.

oh man, Schneider is done like dinner. This is sad to watch.

I personally feel like they tinkered with a winning formula, and they took for granted what they had. If they're going to try to salvage this season and make any type of play for the postseason, John Schneider has to go.

MLBN said that Vlady left enough men on bases to start a small town.
So why is he in number 3 slot? Hottest hitter against starting pitcher goes number 3 not the most talented

Merrifield number 3 and Kiermaier leadoff. Put Vlad and springer lower then back when they earn it

What is wrong with that idea?

That was unprofessional. Baseball needs a mercy rule after 7 innings

Sending in a batting practice pitcher

Ridiculous
No Tampa needs to run out their bullpen, not insert position players to pitch in the 8th inning. Saving their bullpen arms by using position players to pitch in the 8th and 9th innings should not be allowed. 18th inning yes, 8th and 9th inning no.

I know this might sound petty, but this kind of crap even impacts things like my fantasy league. The guy that has Vlad basically a free grand slam. Imagine this guy win my league at the end of the year by an HR or a few RBI's. The winner gets $1000.00 bucks. All because Tampa decided to throw BP to the Jays.

Vlady hit his first home run in what felt like five years.

Nothing more annoying than watching him do his little dances and gestures rounding the bases, when he is not that home run phenom from 2021 right now. After yesterday's grand slam though, he seems to have toned down hr dances a little.

Wow Paulie Walnuts was in the Jays locker room before they took to the field!

I hope they have enough runs for today and take the series, I've had enough of this team in the piscadurr.

Yeah that's only because he knew it was a somewhat meaningless HR and not not really a legit one seeing as it against a positional player throwing BP.

One thing I will say, I am glad the Jays are one of the teams getting more away from these ridiculous theatrics while other teams seem to be going in the other direction.

In Seattle the player that hits an HR puts on a Viking helmet and holds a trident. In Minnesota the guy puts on a fishing vest and holds a fishing rod. There's another completely idiotic one I saw recently.

The Angels don a Samurai helmet after a hr, and the Orioles drink the moonshine. The Red Sox, the hr hitter gets a ride in a wheelbarrow. Nobody does the Rikishi Stinkface - pity.

May: 19 for 51 for a .373 BA. Now hitting a respectable .264 for the season.
....and it's only going to get better.

I miss last year's team and the jacket and the fun.
