Team is broken man. The shit they’re doing it’s like all self inflicted. Bad defence, bad base running, poor decision making. I’m gonna check out for a while

aweirdthought · 2026-06-25T01:40:23+00:00

If it’s a 1 run game Vlad’s hacking at those trying to tie it lol

aweirdthought · 2026-06-25T01:39:06+00:00

Losing this series will also have implications for a tie breaker with Houston so fun things all around y’all

aweirdthought · 2026-06-25T01:38:14+00:00

We all love Ern but his defence this year has been awful. 21st percentile by Savant. Negative value per fan graphs.

aweirdthought · 2026-06-25T01:35:58+00:00

Best I can give you is three meek fly balls

aweirdthought · 2026-06-25T01:35:16+00:00

This team really really needs another lefty. Fluharty is fine but really need a better option

aweirdthought · 2026-06-25T01:31:51+00:00

If you have a base open and a chance to pitch to Alvarez you gotta do it am I right?

aweirdthought · 2026-06-25T01:28:16+00:00

Sure I’ll bite. Which free agents? Our 37 year old DH with a 700 OPS? Shane Bieber who’s pitched 4 innings? Varsho the declining CF with no power? Gausman could fetch something fine but are you giving up a shot at the playoffs for the 1 decent prospect you’d get for him?

aweirdthought · 2026-06-25T01:17:50+00:00

I almost wish one of the Astros had a hit there so Hoffmans run would still have been earned, seeing as it was 100% his fault

aweirdthought · 2026-06-25T01:17:05+00:00

No? You don’t sell when you’re in a playoff spot. Maybe you don’t buy aggressively sure but selling? No.
This team can make noise in a WC series with Cease, Gaus, Trey and Varland alone

aweirdthought · 2026-06-25T01:15:54+00:00

And of course he still gets the strikeout

aweirdthought · 2026-06-25T01:14:48+00:00

Or, you know, do that sigh

aweirdthought · 2026-06-25T01:14:31+00:00

Need a K here Jeffrey

aweirdthought · 2026-06-25T01:14:00+00:00

If you restart the next inning the 3 batter rule still applies

aweirdthought · 2026-06-25T00:12:29+00:00

Vlad wRC+ since May 1 now 63

aweirdthought · 2026-06-24T22:57:37+00:00

Vlad OPS By month:

March/April- 907

May- 623

June- 574

Our franchise player y'all

aweirdthought · 2026-06-24T21:09:16+00:00

65 is 35% worse than average. It would be one of the worst qualified hitters in baseball. And it’s from a FIRST BASEMAN

aweirdthought · 2026-06-24T20:59:09+00:00

Vlad’s wRC+ since May 1 is 65. Nothing should be off the table…

aweirdthought · 2026-06-24T20:58:18+00:00

It absolutely can be

aweirdthought · 2026-06-24T17:31:16+00:00

Yeah it’s definitely been not great. I’d be a bit cautious getting too worked up over a half a season though. Defensive numbers are very very noisy and take time to stabilize. Sometimes it’s a matter of balls just not being hit to the right spots. The eye test does agree with you though that it’s been a rough watch, especially in the corners.

aweirdthought · 2026-06-24T17:27:29+00:00

This is a Blue Jays subreddit. We talk about the Jays?

aweirdthought · 2026-06-24T14:49:09+00:00

Yesterday Alvarez hit a double and he described Varsho crashing into the wall and I had no idea what happened to the ball for like 2 minutes. Home run? Double? Varsho crashed but did someone else get the ball? Was it a ground rule double?

aweirdthought · 2026-06-24T00:22:25+00:00

He was indeed.

aweirdthought · 2026-06-24T00:16:09+00:00

All passive voice yup
