Just turned it on and Romano is close to blowing the save again. Very cocky. Just does not know what means to put it away and stop putting runners on base.

Point is this bullpen needs more shutdown relievers...

They are not going anywhere again this year. Their starting pitching is missing another starter and bullpen still mediocre. Trade vladdy for a few solid pitchers. He's all hype.

This team has trouble scoring runs, even in the games that it wins. Is it time to make a change with the hitting coach as this has been going on for a month at least?

Hearing talk about James Click, former Astros WS winning GM last year, already in the Jays system.

Gurriel and Teoscar traded and flourishing at their destinations. They thought Varsho and Vladdy would replace those runs (not). Vladdy is hitting like an amateur.

This teams needs a major reset of their batting line up. Not sure what that means.

Vladdy needs to go back to AAA - His ABs are atrocious to watch !
Bring up Barger and give the guy a chance to play (Though I think he might be injured and on rehab assignment)
Maybe Otto Lopez for more contact/hits
Give Biggio more regular ABs - He is hitting with some authority right now.
Janno - Needs regular playtime (He seemed to have figured something out)
Move Whit to #2 after Springer and have Bichette come #3. Whit will do what he can to not only get onbase but will always be a threat to steal. And then comes Bichette.

3 months into the season and Kevin Pillar has a higher OPS (.818) than Vlad Guerrero Jr. and every Toronto Blue Jay on the team except Bo Bichette.

It seems Marcus Semien and Bo Bichette will finish in the top 5 for MVP voting this year. Vlad is maybe a top 50 MLB player this season.

Vlad Guerrero Jr. might have peaked in 2021 or that year was an outlier compared to what his career averages are.


Shohei Ohtani just hit 6 home runs in the past 7 days to take the lead in the MLB for home runs hit. He is clearly the favourite for the MVP again because he's also an elite starting pitcher.

Danny Jansen now has the same number of home runs as Vlad Jr. but in exactly half the number of plate appearances.

Who knew Danny Jansen would be more of a power hitter than Vlad Jr this year?

Varsho going hard for the ball...lol. good throw but he was so slow getting to it. That was a dumb trying stretch a single into a double.
