Only guy hitting is the new guy. Wait until Guillermo sinks his claws into him...

Guerrero had a TERRIFIC series against the Rays according to Dan? Wait...did i miss it? Aside from his monster HR i dont really recall him doing anything of note in those 4 games. Sure he had a few walks...but wasnt he also like 4 for 18? Id hardly call that a TERRIFIC series.

I’m not sure which is the less awful option. Watching the Jays game or rewatching the Raptors game.

Damn. Feels weird having the Leafs as the only competitive team in Toronto. Raps just starting their rebuild and will be a perennial lottery team for the next 5 years and the Blue Jays heading in that direction faster than expected. Woof.

But..but...hes a TOP 5 catcher in this league!

If you examine Kirk's Stats from the second half of 2022 up until this point, he is nowhere near a Top 5 Catcher. Only delusional people would think otherwise after looking at his last year and a half. Maybe Top 5 in terms of how many Cheeseburgers or food from a buffet table he can eat.

He’s easily the biggest disappointment in Toronto sports history considering the prospect pedigree

Imagine if ANY of Springer, Guerrero or Bitchette managed to actually do their jobs and get on BASE. Turner would have 3-4 RBIs right now.

Umps still hate Davis Schneider apparently that was a clear check swing.
