Because the fans remember a blown save, not the 10 saves he had prior to the one he recently blew...

And what do fans know anyways? Last year many were calling for Bo to be traded right up until he caught fire in September and he's stayed on fire this year. Bo has had the most hits in the AL in each of the last two years and is on pace to lead the league again this season.
Sounds about right.

Is that like the fans who say that there is no way that they'll make the playoffs when the Jays get no hit, yet with almost half a season left to play they are 7 games out of 1st in the division, when teams have made up 7 game deficits just in September?

Is that like the fans who said that Manoah's career is over when he gave up 11 runs in 2 2/3 in the Complex League/rookie ball?

For all we know, they could’ve been working on one particular thing. Like the entire outing, he may have been instructed to just throw sliders down and away.

We just see the line score. Nobody knows what that was about. In the age of social media, rumours fly around like wind. Mix it in with #manoahsucks and the entire story takes a life of its own.

Oh my mistake I thought it was from Alonzo.....So you got major leaguers smoking liners probably at 110 mph to a bunch of kids...Gee what could go wrong. Bet you changes are made now. Wonder if there is a liability issue here as well.
Pretty sure there's an ironclad liability waiver.

You are bang on. We never know what goes on behind closed doors. Only what they allow us to see and hear.

It's the same with trades and contract negotiations. What is being offered and what is being demanded or requested. We also don't know what goes in the locker room between players. Two more days without a Blue Jays game is a long time.

And this is where I start my YouTube conspiracy documentaries. Was OJ innocent?….. Who killed JFK?…. and Ancient Aliens.

I think I’ve watched every Blue Jays podcast tbh.

So Big Pussy was right, heat is not good for the back, smart move by Vlady to wear a kidney belt between launch sessions. Did David Ortiz give him the same talk that he gave Joey Bats?

When will Joey bats be enshrined in the circle of excellence?

I think I heard that the Jays have the 3rd worst record within their division in MLB but the best record in baseball outside of their division.

Have you also seen his clutch hitting??
I lost count how many key hits he had that won, tied or got Jays back into games
What did I tell you??? Jansen with another bases clearing double. 6-2 the score now.
Important hit because it breaks the game open and gives Jays breathing room.

I much rather have Jansen over Moreno

Jays are making their move at the right time. Vlady is a Montreal native, he should know how to tape a hockey stick, wish El Gran Capitan took part. Matt Chapman with the Dick Long mustache.

Who's the sexy Latina?

It should be easy for them, no different than taping the handle of a bat.

Exciting that the Jays went 3-0 with the diamonds as the diamonds are a quality team.

They cant win in their division is explaIned by their division being all quality teams

Jays did it by hitting with RISP which they have failed to do in the first half

Baltimore has caught up to Tampa

Baltimore was a bad team two years ago

Their rookie catcher is the number one reason
as he is the best in baseball

The best story in baseball is Baltimore

Danny Jansen comes through with another clutch hit. Also, picks off a Diamondback on first base.
