The 2025 Toronto Blue Jays
- Thread starter Toronto Passions
- Start date
Todays win continues to show Francis is for real and so is the bullpen and Springer and Kirk can be solid hitters if they get a lot of rest as Springer is older and catching is a hard job and so Kirk needs rest
Vlad and Sandman may not be our homerun saviours that we need when
our starters stop being so good through injuries, which they will, as 3 homers through
one eighth of a season is 24 in a year when it should be 3 or 4 times that amount
if we are gonna be contenders and not pretenders
Both sluggers in a home run drought at the same time for the same extended period
is worrying
I THOUGHT THEY would be the one of the best one two homerun duo in the game and Bo, Vlad and sandman one of the best 1 2 3 punch

So both the coach and Vlad made a mistake
Vlad was looking at fielder and that was coaches job
Coach says go or not and if runner thrown out coaches fault as coach has to know arm of fielder, the throwing position he is in, the speed of runner etc too much for runner to think about
Never knew that rule but I suspect it keeps the fielder from juggling in order to fool runner to leave early,
and fielder could juggle ball all the way back to the infield LOL. Good rule
Schneider needs a talking to for not challenging when Vlad protested. You need to trust your players and defend them

Addison BargFIELD- 3 outfield assists last night , one thrown at 98 mph, hardest in majors so far.
I thnk we blame MLB for this, not Rogers.Tonight's game is on AppleTV only, Mother Fuckers!!!!!
So let me get this straight, when Apple TV gets the broadcast we don't get Buck and Dan?
Addison Barger has a rocket of an arm. The last time I saw a base runner picked off at third from the right field was Rodney's proctologist : Joey Boom Bats.

AppleTV streams the MLB network coverage of the game, the commentators are horrible, I don't have an Appletv subscription, I'd rather follow the game on MLB gameday online, and then watch the MLB youtube highlights of the game the following morning.
Jays lack of depth in starters and lack of power at bat means this is gonna be more common
We need homeruns to win a score fest, small ball wins only low scoring games
The game was over before the Jays get to bat

Even Bo should have 3 homers by now Vlad and Sandman 5 each as we are over a eighth
of season
I have felt all along Vlad was not a superstar and Sandman gets off to slow starts
but this is a serious and unexpected problem when we are waiting for Varsho to get back
so we can have more power

Vlad is not a HR hitter, he is a line drive singles doubles hitter. He hits them so hard they leave the park accidentally.
Hopefully Santander heats up soon, if not, they will not make playoffs.
When Varsh returns it'l take a while for him to get back into spring training form when he he hit a bunch of HRs.
Incredibly frustrating to watch with such an anemic offense. Yes more home runs are needed but we're not even seeing a lot of hits for extra bases or hits of any kind with runners in scoring position. Hey I can enjoy small ball, but to win with small ball you have to get a lot of runners on the bases and bring them home. Not happening enough. Not even close.
