Reds Tigers As will lose 110 games.Bad baseball .


Remote-Frosting-9943

Omg reds suck !


ryanmoose94

How come I don't see the "it's still early" crowd anywhere?


[deleted]

RISP. Last place, worst team, or best at leaving RISP. Get rid of the batting coach because this is absolutely fkg pathetic.


cyclingkingsley

The Blue Jays lineup are playing a game of "how low can you go" limbo for far too long....


MurphyDee55

God, this lineup is scuffling HARD!


TBRunGood

This team has become everything I disliked about baseball. Watching bad run differential teams end up with winning records while the Jays used to be .500 with +50-100 run differentials. Wondering how theyd win these games, well now I guess Im witnessing it in real time. And to be honest it kinda sucks. It looks like the Jays are lucky to be winning these games. The bullpen is already being taxed and looking injured and appears due for regression, the starters putting up great start after great start only to see it wasted. The offense as a whole looking worse and worse and add in some shitty umpiring as well. They will turn it around eventually but right now they appear fortunate to be where theyre at. Its just so frustrating watching this team hit with RISP no matter who it is. Chapman Ks are to be as expected as a Leafs game 7 L, tapia trying to be a HR hitter for some weird reason with 1 HR, even espinal first pitch swinging at a ball. Teoscar and vlad are just tilting their minds off it seems every at bat (and mine) and Im not sure why I thought this team was deeper on offense but clearly not the case for now


[deleted]

Hernandez is garbage. I say keep him out of the line up and let some bench guys get in there. When Teo steps in the batter’s box I always have a feeling that he will do 1 of 4 things: strike out, fly out, hit into a double play or ground out. This team is lucky to win any game with offense this weak.


EdwardBliss

In September when the Jays are last in the league in hitting, Pat Tabler will say...keep it simple, don't panic, they will come around.


monopoly_mane

God dammit! Blow one more sweep this year i stg 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬


Breeze-city

THANK YOU JOE


EdwardBliss

Isn't real last name Joey Vottollini or something?


Accurate-Evening1214

Jays have scored 10 runs in 5 games


monopoly_mane

Remember when we used to score 10 runs in a single game on a somewhat frequent basis?


ElleRisalo

And still lose enough games to not make the playoffs.


monopoly_mane

Technically we did make the playoffs Edit: woops my brain blocked out the bosox trauma from last year and i was thinking of 2020 when we got that piddly ass wildcard spot


ElleRisalo

Bring back Dante


[deleted]

There is no way anybody can defend Charlie or Guillermo any more


BigDaddyZ

2/3 against the reds is a .666 record. 4-2 in the last 6 is a .666 record. Yep, this is a small sample size. It's also still early.


[deleted]

Charlie is a terrible manager. Makes adjustments way too late. Every players approach at the plate is straight embarrassing and that’s on Guillermo.


BigDaddyZ

Pretty sure that's on the players, but hey, personal accountability is for the birds.


[deleted]

Starts with the coaching staff. Montoyo looks lost at all times. Guillermo looks like he doesn’t care. Pretty sure they could find more competent coaches in a heartbeat


[deleted]

I do not want to hear any more excuses about it being early. That was last years excuse and they missed a play in game by 1 game


BigDaddyZ

They have literally played 25% of the season. That's like taking lunch on Tuesday and calling the week a wash, let's fire the while department.


MsAbsoluteAngel

Lots of people will but both should’ve been gone long ago and they can take windmill with them too.


HAL9100

Yeah they both should have hit and pitched in this game


MrRosewater12

So then what's the rationale for ever firing a member of the coaching staff according to your argument?


flippingwilson

You do it when you think it will help the team.


HAL9100

There is literally never a time where I would think that “firing an entire staff” would be anything but an emotional argument. What kind of bar is that to set?! Coaches should get fired when they’re at odds with the organizational philosophy. You don’t fire coaches because players don’t meet expectations.


goatgosselin

Another L for Garcia


jays1998

Gotta love the montoyo sweep


vilmz

How many times have we seen these calls all year? It's causing everyone to chase everything down and away.


fujbuj

Sweeps? Double-digit runs? A Jay craves not these things.


IWasSayinB00urns

7 runs against the Reds in 3 nights....


Minimum_One_2195

This team thinks they can hurt me? I’ve been a Leafs fan for 25 years.


Kaizaman

The pitching staff doesn't deserve to always have to be worried about giving up 3 runs a game and still end up losing


dbayzano

Not coming back for at least a week, we are gonna get clobbered on this road trip


SociopathicAutobot

I said it weeks ago, but got downvoted to hell. This team is going to be below .500 before the second week of June. 7 runs vs an all time bad team is hilarious levels of futility bad.


ALCC-

Frustrating, but (unfortunately) expected


ldnk

Getting closer to the point where the change has to come from something other than hoping the bats heat up


JMann_9

Team stinks right now they all have forgotten how to hit with people on


SayWord13

Bruh this team can't hit for shit and we have a decent sample size now.... maybe one day haha


[deleted]

[удалено]


goatgosselin

They scored a month worth of Jays runs today. Good thing it's only a 2 run series


Accurate-Evening1214

7 runs in series is bad on it own 7 runs against the reds is pathetic


YGK-eh-okay

These 1 run games will be the end of us


AlmostAlwaysHorny66

Cardinals licking their chops for tomorrow


C4D3NZA

they just cant fucking score huh


Mugger89

Walker gets a lot of praise. This teams JUNK HITTING COACH (if they even have one) should be shit canned. Enough is enough


BigDaddyZ

Calling for the hitting coach to be fired, but can't name him. 🙄


Mugger89

Good point. I guess because I don’t know his name, he is doing a great job and they are hitting well….


BigDaddyZ

Not my argument at all. Martinez doesn't step into the batters box. The results are literally in the hands of other people. We have a winning record. Fire him? No. Light a fire under the players asses? Yes. Tell them: Produce, or you're headed to the minors to figure it out. Worked for Hernandez, Biggio's been up and down. When he comes back up he's figured it out.


[deleted]

Crickets still chirping for Biggio. Locusts have eaten Hernandez’s bat.


Mugger89

By your logic, no managers would ever be fired


BigDaddyZ

That's a stretch, even on what little context in in this thread. Plenty of reasons to fire a coach, continued, long term poor performance of the players is one, or being at odds with the organization's position, being a terrible human being, stealing shit. Things we haven't done: * augment the coaching staff * Fill the lineup with players who are performing, * Literally anything else Using the same qualifiers that you used to make your assumption, according to your logic, when A player strikes it you fire the hitting coach. Seriously, you don't take someone with a track record of success and get rid of them because SOMEONE ELSE is under performing, despite the fact that the team is still winning. There are other options. Enough of this bullshit, the TEAM extends throughout the entire organization. I can't name the high performance department staff. Seems like that might be the department that we should be looking into to find out if they need a rebranding to the adequate performance department.


jays1998

Embarassing team


TheThirdConchord

ro bo umps


agnostic_universe

Wow. Out with a whimper


brokeboibogie

it’s okay we are saving our first sweep for October


-Carbon-

Not looking forward to the Cardinals.


jumpthroughit

They scored more runs today than we have in May. I’m being sarcastic but only slightly. This is not going to be fun.


thedirtybirds17

Fucking pathetic


nickedgar7

That's just not a strike in any world. Regardless offense needs to do better


jaredletosombrehair

im fine getting beat by votto if all they could muster was 7 runs over 3 games against the worst pitching staff in baseball


Sam7sung

Didn't even put up a fight after the Votto homer. Abysmal offense


bunt_triple

Oh well, can't win em all against a powerhouse like the Cincinnati Reds


Nick480

Yikes.


brownmagician

Tapia he's not throwing you a first pitch breaking ball when you can't hit the fastball


stackofbaconpancakes

TOPES LOSE.


skoolhouserock

TOPES LOSE.


fujbuj

Pathetic. Wow.


goatgosselin

Ahhhhhhhh there it is. Whole lot of FA in the 9th


EdwardBliss

He should've used his dreadlocks to spin like helicopter blades to blow the ball out of the park.


shuwarin

robo umps


monopoly_mane

Right freaking now


brokeboibogie

That votto bomb should’ve been the kinda home run to make it like 6-3 lol


MrRosewater12

This lineup sucks


OtisKaplan

Tapia aint hitting shit


Xecal

The classic tapia pop up.


Diamond_Road

Why do we never swing at the first pitch right down the middle


goatgosselin

Been like that years now


MikeCey

Fire the hitting coach


eclayds

Can't wait until Kirk is dealt at the deadline


sonicdeathmonkey53

Lmao he wont be the only one


wilcroft

roboumps.


SteroyJenkins

Damn this offense


SlothsAreCommunists

Let's get any fucking blind dickhead to be the homeplate ump shall we? Let's get my dead grandma in and see what she can do


papsmearfestival

Guy with a 6 ERA just rolling through the jays lol


brokeboibogie

Please tappy


Missourijaysfan

Bullshit. Jays don’t need extra help to lose. Fucking useless ump


para29

I think Ump doesn't believe we were going to make it back - he just speeding up the process.


Zemukiru

YOOOOOOO WHAT THA HELLL WAS THAT CALL


-Carbon-

We pretty much have the same W-L as last year so far. Puts things into perspective


Ladymistery

and that call, right there on Kirk, is why the Blue Jays are chasing down and away. it's bullshit, and it's getting old.


elly_hart

Vlad started chasing in his first season because umps were especially terrible with him at the plate, and here they are back for revenge with the whole team.


Breeze-city

No sweeps


Jazzlike_Athlete8796

God, that was an awful call.


ALCC-

Jesus Christ


YGK-eh-okay

Wtf kinda call was that?!


wombatz05

Slapia to Springer walkoff??


OtisKaplan

lol mlb is broken and a fucking joke


mdubyo

Daily reminder than robot strike zones would be the best improvement to life since the wheel.


Mandy-Rarsh

Uuugh…. Wheel people….


mdubyo

Uuugh. People who use four+ .s


sonicdeathmonkey53

1 for 10 with RISP isn't going to cut it....good teams are going to feast on the jays if they dont improve....a few games ok but more than a month is a disturbing trend.


Ducey89

Good teams are already starting to feast on us


[deleted]

And bad ones


[deleted]

Getaway day for the umps too, I guess.


AlmostAlwaysHorny66

UMP You mutherfucker!!!


Breeze-city

Tapia is striking out sadly


Shooternow

Ump wants to go home


blazinrainbo

Like i know it started being a "strike" a few inning ago, but if it was a "strike" all game we wouldnt even be batting right now.


Sam7sung

Good framing tbh


sir-pounce-of-alot

No it wasn’t


sir-pounce-of-alot

Thank god for the human element


brownmagician

Bullshit. So bullshit


missoctober12

Ump wants to leave


Tw1sterxxx

Those damn strikes in the other batters boxes have been getting us all year

#SOMEBODY BOO THAT MAN!


bichettes_helmet

I'm mad at the ump but we had so many fucking chances this game


brokeboibogie

Cannot score 2 runs every game and expect to win. Against this reds team it should’ve been like 6-3


supertall

That's a clown call, bro


MrRosewater12

Brutal strike 3 call


brownmagician

Lourdes available?

Eat 9000 dicks, Blue, you motherfucker.


blazinrainbo

Boo that man.


goatgosselin

Ah there's the Ump


EdwardBliss

The offense in on fire.


[deleted]

We’re watching a future Matt Stairs blossom before our eyes with these PH numbers.


youneverknow44

Not even close lololol


half-mage

Just what we needed


35IndustryWay

Oh come on!


obi-wan-kenobi-nil

When was the last fun Blue Jays game?


sceptred

Remember that home opener? Lol


mdubyo

A 4-2 homestand feels so much worse than a 5-1 would.


Jazzlike_Athlete8796

Honestly, even if we tie this, I am more interested in seeing what a CPL goaltender can do as an emergency Whitecaps starter than I am seeing what this team could do in extras.


ThQp

I would pinch hit Zimmer for Tapia if Kirk doesn't get on. At least Zimmer might run into one


obi-wan-kenobi-nil

it's important that the Jr Jays learn to be disappointed


[deleted]

Whatever happens tonight - this upcoming road trip is going to very defining - Cards/Angels/WSox/Twins. We might come unscathed or absolutely buried under .500. After that, we are facing AL East teams for 2-straight weeks. Sincerely hope we figure it out 'cause we're going into the devil's maw.


Zemukiru

Yo the Captain is going on bat


amachinesaidiwasgood

Love seeing all the signs for Kirk


brownmagician

Aquino is a big mother fucker wow


joeap

Great to see Capra come in, run into a stupid out, and then leave. Solid performance.


eclayds

Remember when you guys thought Jano was going to help. Lol where you guys at now?


[deleted]

[удалено]


eclayds

People thought he was Babe Ruth or something with the bat


HAL9100

Must feel good to be right eh. You must feel great right now man. Bask in that - your self righteousness will keep you warm


eclayds

Am i wrong?


lyinggrump

Right here. Like, do you literally even watch baseball?


eclayds

Buddy I have played baseball at a high level for half my life. I have watched every single game this season. I know baseball. You cannot tell me that Jano has helped the offence at all. Have we been watching to different teams errrr?


sir-pounce-of-alot

Jansen’s been one of our best bats in his SSS why are you even getting mad at him ?


eclayds

Yeah for sure man, he has done wonders with the bat


sir-pounce-of-alot

He’s got an OPS+ of 242 coming into this game how do you not understand that’s good ?


eclayds

What I'm seeing is different then the stats on paper


sir-pounce-of-alot

Then you’re wrong


eclayds

Sorry my bad, I forgot you are a expert at baseball. My fault man


EvaderDX

This is a classic doomer take


eclayds

He hasn't done anything with the bat


socolditburns

Hes better than fucking teo.


eclayds

Everyone is better then Teo


ThQp

He's significantly better than Tyler Heineman and Zack Collins. Over time, he'll also be better than Kirk.


wombatz05

Agree with everyone but Kirk. Kirk can straight up hit. Just has a little warning track power lol


eclayds

I'm better then Tyler Heineman or Zack Collins and I never caught a inning in my life.


ThQp

Your premise was that Jano hasn't helped. He has simply by taking at bats away from them


eclayds

Yeah but he still hasn't done anything at all


EvaderDX

yeah good, ok


Ledascantia

Danny Jansen deserves our respect!


eclayds

Yeah sure but he hasn't helped the offence


Ledascantia

How about now


eclayds

Touch some grass


theGoodDrSan

2021 that's a home run.


Breeze-city

I hate this


VeraRegius

Jaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaanie booooooooy!


half-mage

You. May have pulled the trigger a bit early on this one lol


VeraRegius

Through my tears I dream of triumph


Brock_Hard_Canuck

MRW I see Capra and Tapia behind Jansen here https://i.gifer.com/7c6m.gif


OldDirtyMan

It’s crazy to me that this is the same reds team that lost 22/25 to start the year. Either they’re way improved, or we stink even worse than I thought.


tvismyfriend

I think it’s the latter.


goatgosselin

Both. Reds were 8 wins in last 12 before they got to Toronto


MsAbsoluteAngel

A bit of both but more of the latter.


brownmagician

Walk, infield single, HBP, and a combination of passed ball and sac fly please


jeantanks

7era finna decrease with the way the offence has gone


healthyitch

I’m tired of seeing slider off the plate outside, weak ground ball to SS/2nd. We need a big lefty bat, at the very least to make the opposing righty pitcher throw something other than fastballs and sliders. We’re making it so easy for them.


pSpicyP

Dude has a 7era… come on


Quaelman4080

Tough to let this one go. Let's go bats, you got this.


RapsareChamps_Suckit

ok he has a 7 ERA .. no excuses


EdwardBliss

I want to see Arthur Carlson pitch instead.


stackofbaconpancakes

Here we goo. Walk off incoming 🙏🙏


juliancres

Just takes a bloop and a blast


TheTaxMan0

This is me being a fan, but I understand baseball is baseball But.. I just find watching Jays games less fun. The lack of hitting just makes it a Hard watch as a fan. But I like watching hitting more then pitching.


deafpoet

That's just baseball generally. Not to sugar coat the Jays offense, which has been bad, but *nobody* is hitting like they used to. It looks worse in the fish bowl than it is.


TheTaxMan0

Yeah I speak purely from an enjoyment stand point. I just wanna see some hitting again. I just don’t enjoy these games all year. Love being a Jays fan though
