Yup, so stupid. It's just another thing he does that's totally turned me off him as a ball player. I think some of the guys were getting tired of it and started dumping water/ice out so he couldn't do so much anymore. If you look now when he does it, there's not nearly as much water/ice in the Gatorade bin.

You're not supposed to ice bucket a pitcher, Chris Bassitt seems to like it. Alex Manoah most certainly does not, i hear he punched Vlady in the face in the clubhouse.
Are Jays fans becoming Leafs fans? I remember the scorn being heaped on BoBoChette at the start of the season, now that he's on pace for 200 hits all I hear is crickets. The problem with Vlady, he's had too many junk pitches as called strikes. Schneider had enough and ranted with the ump getting his ass tossed. Let's see how many of you folks complain about Vlady when he goes on a tear.
Poor Hazel didn't see it coming.
Only three Blue Jays have had 200 hits. Robbie Alomar twice, John Olerud and Vernon Wells with the record of 215.

What a disaster. Manoah gets one out in first 6 runs and leaves 2 on
hard to watch
Leave him in and let him throw 100 pitches to save the bullpen
Maybe he will figure something out
Game is over anyways so take Kirk out to give him rest
Has one of the games best ever fallen so hard and so quickly
for no reason that anyone can figure out?

OK enough is enough, F the BS.....Manoah needs to start working out in season ASAP with that Roger Clemens ex trainer guy, the Mitchell Report rat, Brian McNamee ASAP.
I know how dare that man rat on the rocket....lol..... but I'm sure he can help. Tighten up that core, and get his conditioning up to par.

JAYS need to aquire a backend starter first as they have none to bring up
mitch white is offically out of consideration
he has been a washout and they gave up top prospect in Nick Frasso
who is pitching lights out in AAA
Problem is who do you bring up? Mitch White has been sent to the bullpen in AAA.
You're going to say anyone might be better but.........
Edit..Ross Stripling has been even worse than Manoah. So there's that.

LOL! He had a career year last season, or perhaps last year was his career.
Aside from missing something in his game this year, Manoah behaved like an asshole last year and players/teams have geared up for him.

A coach used to say to us...''When you win say little and when you lose say less''.
Something today's athletes could learn.
This isn't about winning games at this point. This about getting Manoah right. Your losing every 5 days anyway, so it doesn't really matter who they put in. Manoah needs some rest, and maybe some time experiment is the minors.
And not Ricky Romero, but personally (and obviously I'm no expert) but at the very minimum, some time off to give him some rest. There has to be a reason his velocity is down. He logged at lot of innings for a guy that made the transition so quick into the majors.
Rickey Romero was doing ok until his girlfriend(Miss Junior USA) dumped him. Maybe Manoah got dumped.
When I watched the first couple of games that Manoah pitched this season, I got the impression that he was a little rattled by the pitch clock. I'm no expert here but perhaps that started fucking with his head and just snowballed from there.
All i know is we need The Rocket. Lol
Life is so much better with Roger. (this literally has nothing to do with anything).

Blue Jays option Alek Manoah to Florida Complex League

Good move to send him that far down. Triple A hitters would have hit him hard too. Not much chatter about his weight. Would he be better if he dropped about 20 pounds?
Also jay Jackson should have been kept. He was quite effective Monday night. Pitch him on Saturday as part of bullpen day.
Saw in the Star that it was unfair to boo Manoah. Disagree. Those people paid a lot of money to see a major league game and pitcher. The booing was for waiting one game too many to demote Manoah. I also saw more than usual empty seats. I decided to go to tonight's game and would not want to pay to see last night's game. Did people , like me, deliberately want to avoid seeing another Manoah start?
