A successful managerial past is not always required. Bobby Cox was mediocre in his first go-round with the Braves. 266-323, before the Jays.
I don't think that's new. I think he's been doing that since before the home run trot thing.
Jansen is probably their best hitter this year, is a team leader and excellent behind the plate. Getting rid of Jansen would be one of the worst possible moves the Jays could possibly make.
I wasn't initially a fan of it because of the jokester attitude of the team at that time.
I had tickets to the Yankees series, and I gave them away. This team is so boring. The best thing about this team, and the most exciting thing about this team, is watching Manoah trying to find himself and recapture his form.
Guerrero has been the biggest advocate to bring back the jacket. If this somehow miraculously has him hitting home runs, I’m OK with that.
Jansen is a free agent at the end of this year. He's not good enough to get a qualifying offer. Keeping him for the whole year would be one of the worst possible moves the Jays could possibly make. Nothing would prevent the Jays from trying to resign him in the off season, if he wants to come back. He might even appreciate being able to play in games that actually matter in the last third of the season.
See post # 186. You didn't 'finally get your answer'. You just needed to be told the same thing several times before you could comprehend.
You don't get the idea that Rogers only cares about making money??????? Who knew you were new....
Nice job taking my quote out of context. You missed the emphasis on the "ONLY" part though. What I basically said was it's possible to try and generate revenue and win a championship at the same time.
You've crossed the line. One of your moms should have taught you some manners. I'm adding you to my Ignore list, permanently, effective immediately.
I had to look up Rob Dibble. I've never heard of him before.....LMAO

I think I’ve talked about this here before, I remember watching the NLCS on NBC or CBS in 1990, and the network just activated their new toy which was the radar gun on screen, and Rob Dibble was getting gunned at 102 mph. By today’s standards it doesn’t seem so unbelievably remarkable…. But this was at a time where most pitchers were getting clocked at 90 mph. remember at this time the word was anything above 90 mph was considered a very good above average fastball. I also believe the early 90s was a time where pitch speed was still being clocked crossing the plate. I remember I read once that from the time the ball leaves the hand, to when it crosses the plate, it loses between 5 to 8 mph. so that could’ve been anywhere from 107 to 110 mph today. All I remember is the catcher being in excruciating pain. I remember the catcher removing the catchers glove and literally shaking his hand between pitches. I’ve also seen many documentaries and interviews from players in that era that say Rob Dibble through the hardest they’ve ever seen. This includes guys like Bobby Bonilla and even Paul O’Neal who played for the Reds at this time.
I love it. Teoscar and Ohtani seem to be pretty good friends. I haven’t seen it, but apparently there was some video that went viral where they were teaching each other their languages or something. Hernandez is such an amazing teammate. I think he has the best smile in MLB.
