If anyone should be fired, it should be the pitching coach. This is Pete Walker's 11th season in Toronto. If you evaluate the bullpen and starter stats over the last decade, this organization has been bottom to mediocre each year. Not sure why Walker has been held in such high regard. If you remember Pete Walker as a Blue Jay, he was a mediocre reliever also around 20 years ago.

It's interesting that while Schneider is a rookie manager, his pitching coach is a holdout from Gibbons' day snd his batting coach is a holdout from Charlie's.

I posted this suggestion on the Blue Jays reddit board and you'd be surprised how hard I was downvoted. For some reason he's apparently pretty popular not just with the organization but with some Jays fans as well, even though I can't think of any outstanding examples of his 'great' work.

2 hour or 2 home run?

Because we certainly aren't hitting 2 home runs any time soon.

I think we both know the answer to that one. This has an O'S walkoff in the 9th written all over it :lol:

Their pen is insanely good at the back end with Cano and Felix Bautista. I can't see us getting anything off them.
