Realistically our playoff chances were over before the season started.

But it sure would be nice if Guerrero can start hitting.


No kidding. How long before they send him down to AAA? Can't be that far away if he continues to struggle hitting.

I'm just curious as to why he's struggling so much. This guy was supposed to be a guaranteed hitter. My concern is he seems to be striking out more than we was supoosed to be. It j us t seems his pitch recognition is way off.

I mean I get he has to get adjusted to big league pitching but his at bat's have looked a little less composed that I had expected considering all the hype.

He just turned 20 years old. He's the youngest position player in the majors (second-youngest overall, behind Elvis Luciano), and he's hardly the first player his age to stumble out of the gate. Good god people, have a little patience; it's been barely more than a week.

Plus as mentioned vladdy has been getting everyone's best bullets and he hasn't gotten into alot of favourable counts either thanks to some poor umpiring...

Indeed. DFA Vladdy, build around Sogard.

“We could have gone forever. (Raptors management) kept knocking on the door and I was like, ‘A couple more minutes.’ Because we were really into it."

I watched 1 AB in Saturday’s game. Galvis with 2 on, 2 out in an 8-5 game, count 1-1 and he swings at a ball that lands before the plate and then one at least 15 inches outside the strike zone high and wide. I turned the channel at that point.

I dont get how so many people believe in the raptors,they have zero to chance to win it all.
