Why is Vlad getting a day off when we need his bat and he hasn't always been on the field?

 

[Emerica]

yikes

 

[Maplebeasts]

What the f*** was that Villar?

 

[weaponomega]

Huh?

 

[habamillions]

Villar fitting in nicely with errors and bad baserunning

[kb]

Villar still playing for Miami?

We have a perfectly good 2nd baseman, let's put him in the of. Oy.

Montoyo up to 7D chess with his moves.

Naw, he's just ridiculously overmatched as an MLB manager.

 

[The Nemesis]

Drink.

You know why.

George Brett reference. Finish the bottle

At least he has the mildly defensible excuse that Villar is kind of ass in the OF, but really Villar should just be at short right now instead of putting Espinal in when it hasn't been that long since he was out with a quad injury or whatever.

 

[Suntouchable13]

Jesus, another out on the bases. WTF??

 

[Maplebeasts]

Oh my god. Our base running is horrendous.

 

[weaponomega]

My God these guys are dumb.

I’m getting Ezequiel Carrera flashbacks

...they continue

 

[canucksfan]

WTF is wrong with this team on the bases? It's beyond pathetic. I coach middle school baseball and I wouldn't except this stuff from them and around half rarely play baseball.

 

[Battle Lin]

man we're a dumb base running team, and shaw, man did he just stand there...how bout a wave over cause the ball was gone enough to advance

"The Blue Jays have never faced Sanchez before, so I have no idea where this shift information is coming from."

It's coming from what the Blue Jays hitters do regardless of what pitcher is on the mound, Buck.

I mean... jesus christ. You cannot possibly be so obtuse as to think that shift data is pitcher specific because then it would be so granular as to be useless against basically any pitcher except some long-term divisional rival starter who has like 20-40 starts against the team (and still that presumes that the Jays' lineup has been static for the last several years.)

God. This is beyond just "he doesn't understand the newfangled concepts." this is being seemingly willfully ignorant and dumb for no other reason than to grouse and grumble about things that weren't things in his day.

Everything going according to plan so far
