The team gave up yet they were celebrating like crazy when they tied the game yesterday, or when they had the walk off win? Yea....
Since August 1st they are 6-15.
Team just quit.
Well our SP has gone 2-11 with an ERA of 5.45 in August and pretty sure Jannsen has blown a few saves this month as well. I think pitching that **** makes it pretty hard to win.

Pretty tough to win when the offense no-shows more often than not, especially in the last month.
Happ especially has been left with very little run support over his past few starts.
The team shouldn't have to resort to late-game heroics.
This team is done. It's time to sell high and rebuild this club.
Bautista for Wong + Miller + Piscotty. Get it done AA!
I have been touting that type of deal for Bautista for the past 2 years knowing they need to make that type of move to reset the franchise. I would hold out for Tavares but that package is good.
Yea, I think Bautista will finally force the issue. I like the Wong + Piscotty package because it fills 2 holes and they both have upside to be around .800 OPS players plus another Hutchison like arm in the rotation via Miller.
Yup makes sense. In a package you need to acquire a 3b or 2b and then shift Lawrie to the leftover hole.
Wong makes perfect sense and can bat in the 2 hole allowing Melky(assuming signing) to bat 3 and EE to hit 4th
Yeah I don't think it's a coincidence either. Even though Bautista and Janssen were the vocal ones, they were speaking of what most of the clubhouse was feeling and clearly players are upset more help wasn't brought in for the final push. I don't think they folded right away or anything but after a few losses, I think it has just snowballed and the team looks very deflated right now and pretty much given up.
Jays should be trying to trade Janssen and Rasmus for whatever they can get before the waiver trade deadline is over.
Reimold DFA, Pillar Called up.

So Phil Bickford is leaving Cal State Fullerton so he can potentially enter the 2015 draft. Went to college for one year and is now walking away from that free education that was so important.
Don't think I would want Shelby Miller. I think if you're trading Bautista, you gotta target an elite prospect so Tavares would be the target for me even if there aren't multiple good pieces to go with it.
correlation /= causation.
It's just another one of those swings in a baseball season. Teams run hot and cold. We played well for a while without some of our best players, that was bound to catch up to us, that goes double when the guys who were on hot streak eventually had to cool off.
I was thinking Bautista + Dickey/Buerhle while we eat some of Buerhles contract for Wong and Taveras.
