April 17, 20178 yr comment_258803 My only regret is that I bought tickets to a Jays-Rangers game next month. Had I waited, I may have saved lots of money. Go Yankees!

Knew going from all the crazy hitters of the last few years to a more human line up would be tough this is worse then expected though. They really gotta get a lead off hitter, and start using line ups that flow like normal line ups.

May 6, 20178 yr comment_261189 Blue Jays are no longer the worst team in baseball standings wise, that honour goes to the Royals Edited May 6, 20178 yr by bustamente
May 6, 20178 yr comment_261197 The Blue Jays have the pieces to blow it proper they could be really competitive in 2-3 years. As long as they get a top 3 pick this year as in 2018 draft. Just take a look at what the Cubs did.
May 6, 20178 yr comment_261241 Think Shapiros plan all along was to blow it up and construct the team his way, let's see if the fans will go along for the ride, next few years could be very bleak.

The way the young bats are performing in the system, combined with the relative youth of our pitching core they could easily turn it around in that time range. Vladdy JR looking like a chip off the old block, just crushing the minors.
May 13, 20178 yr comment_262584 Another win tnite, aside from the first half of april jays have been better especially considering the injuries.
May 14, 20178 yr comment_262630 Another win for the jays, and bautista is heating up. 7 pitchers tnite though. The jays bull pen is putting up way too many innings. 4 pitchers 1 inning worth of outs. carrera has really been mashing.
May 15, 20178 yr comment_262867 jays inching closer and closer to .500, nice sweep of the Mariners hopefully momentum continues against the braves. I keep seeing this pic all over the place, would make for a good "caption" photo "Ow my wallet"

May 16, 20178 yr comment_262892 i think i jinxed them, totally laying a stink nugget out on the field tonight. I'll still give them credit, for such an injury riddled team they've come a long way in shoring up their record. Can't wait for Donaldson and Tulo to be back

May 16, 20178 yr comment_262942 Donaldson back by the weekend says Gibby. Now, about all those starters missing...

With donaldson and tulo back, if our starters can get deeper into games this team is gonna be a real threat.
May 16, 20178 yr comment_262986 Debate point: Should Biagini stay in the rotation when fully healthy?
May 16, 20178 yr comment_262991 1 minute ago, Noeller said: Debate point: Should Biagini stay in the rotation when fully healthy? Im not a fan of that move. Hes just found success for him self, i dont think he played AAA, hes on the wrong side of 30, hes never thrown 150 innings in a year at any level, etc. You risk ruining a nice bullpen arm on a guy that wouldnt be reliable to throw 200 this year or next year. If he was a young guy, with electric stuff like sanchez the switch makes sense. At worst you may lose a year and a half, then send him to the minors for half a year to get him ready again to be a reliever. That kind of time isnt projectable with his stuff, and at his age. Every team needs a bullpen, and every good team needs a good or great bullpen. In our current situation id go out and get a long reliever or two. Rotate them through AAA and the big club as needed. At this point I think liriano is close to becoming a long man, reliever or a loogy. So maybe move him to the pen, get another vet or AAAA long guy to go up and down, and trade for a back end starter.
May 16, 20178 yr comment_263000 Jays are a .500 team. The pressure of the fan base to not tear it down will lead to years of .500 results. This is the time to do it don't let athis little run fool anyone.

If they played .500 in april and stayed healthy wed be in great shape. I would be in favor of a build based around young MLBers. With in the donaldson and young pitchers window. Not a rebuild as in trading for blue chip high A ball prospects. Especially not trading guys like stro, sanchez etc. If they had been more patient and not tried to rush with the mega trades for vets a few years ago we would be the envy of the league.
