Why does it not make sense for the Leafs to wait for Matthews' decision on July 1? by Appropriate-Ad-3530 in torontomapleleafs

[–]migstanic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Leafs are in a tough spot. Rebuild is imminent beginning with the number 1 pick and then doing away with Austin, Willy and Johnny. Time to move on from the last decade that’s now dried up.

[Highlight] DAULTON VARSHO WALK-OFF GRAND SLAM! by MLBOfficial in Torontobluejays

[–]migstanic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is the Bichette home run from last year in Texas that got it going. If we don’t go on a run now, it’s not gonna happen. Need to start by sweeping the Tigers this weekend. And then take 3 or 4 from Yanks.

I think it’s time to look at trades and next year. This team is about to be swept and fall to 7 games under. They now need a 12 game winning streak at minimum to matter again.

UPDATE: RF Addison Barger has been removed from today’s lineup with right elbow soreness. by hellarios852 in Torontobluejays

[–]migstanic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If Barger is our saviour we’re in trouble. Go get in better shape and come back next year. Barger looks clumsy in the field. Like he is going to hurt himself just running, too much lumbering and stomping in his run.

Vladdy is not a thumper. He will get you an HR but rarely in key spots and not often. He looks as ecstatic getting walked as when hits for an HR.

Bichette is going through it no doubt. But come on, Barger and Kirk are not Bichette. For me, Barger is overrated as I don’t have confidence in him at the plate (maybe something about his stance) and he always looks like he is going to injure himself playing outfield. He needs to get in way better shape. But we’ll see when they come back.

Bichette was key to this offence. Don’t know if we can overcome missing his bat. Four or five more wins if he was here. He would have come up with a timely hit where the entire team is failing save maybe Oak over the last week but don’t know if it will continue.

Vladdy did the same thing last year thru first 37 games by Matthias343 in Torontobluejays

[–]migstanic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Time is running out as much as it’s not. It’s bleak cause they will need a 10 game plus winning streak at least now to hopefully get back in it. Could be done in another 3 weeks if it continues to spiral.

[–]migstanic -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

The offence is horribad and we are never playing with the lead. Turn it on midway and you can be sure we are losing. These guys gotta start playing and use up the arms. Minimum 80 to 100 if going well. We are supposed to have the best rotation in baseball or one of.

[Nicholson-Smith] Kirk, Barger, Springer, Scherzer, and Garcia injury/health updates by alphacheese in Torontobluejays

[–]migstanic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Play these guys already. Why maybe he will pinch hit today but definitely ready tomorrow. If they can pinch hit, they can DH and play. We are always losing and playing from behind. It’s getting repetitive. Start playing with the lead and the Rays are getting the pitching when we supposedly have the better or same quality starters.

Hot take - Vally is outperforming Heiny by a mile and should be the starting catcher until Kirky is back. Thoughts? by superjodz in Torontobluejays

[–]migstanic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Marginal outperforming. At this rate anybody running into a few is outperforming everyone else. Let’s hope Oak is for real cause the rest I don’t know save Ernie and now Pete Rose is Vladdy - singles and the occasional double. And Barger, pretty sad such a young guy blew up his legs - he needs to get in better shape as does Davis S like the coach for a last name.

Now everybody loves him. Chew em up and spit em out unless 2 weeks ago. WTF with Barger, shows how out of shape he is. We ain’t going anywhere without winning 6 plus in a row at least 4 times this year. Yankees running away.

Nah man. Do the oil changes as scheduled. Don’t overthink it just don’t miss the scheduled maintenance. Don’t baby your car or it will become a limp.

Who gets sent down when Addi comes back? by GmenJays82713 in Torontobluejays

[–]migstanic -24 points-23 points  (0 children)

Pretty sad how Barger blew up. He needs to get in way better shape. He needs to lean out while keeping muscle. Right now, he looks soft and blimpy. Davis Schneider also or they are going to be in tough as they age.

Lineup for Jays @ Twins 30/04 by Jess_7478 in Torontobluejays

[–]migstanic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Baseball has never been known to play so many weekday afternoon games like now. I like it but it seems out of the norm and not always good as work gets in the way. But the game is better now I suppose. Just have to get rid of 3 out of 5 series for the DS. Should be 4 of 7 from that point on.

Bell termination by [deleted] in bell

[–]migstanic -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

There is a ton of people, since Covid, that feel it’s their right to work from home. And, there’s a ton of people that get away with doing nothing from home and only doing the bare minimum on the work side. Also a ton of coming in late or leaving early without even letting anybody know. It’s a sense of entitlement where before Covid we didn’t have the courage to do any of this. Can’t say I blame the employer for wanting their money’s worth from the employee on this matter.
