ALCS Game 2 - Seattle Mariners @ Toronto Blue Jays, Monday October 13, 2025, 5:03 PM

Need to get at least two or even three new high leverage relievers in this bullpen for 2026 (along with a returning Garcia), that you do not have to worry about not throwing Strikes and who are wild as hell on the mound. I would say goodbye to guys like Little, Dominguez, Nance, Sandlin, Bruihl, and invest a lot more resources in the bullpen for 2026.

This bullpen is simply not championship material. Need at least two more Starters also, by letting Scherzer, Bassitt and Bieber walk. Ross Atkins and Shapiro could learn a thing or two on how to build a team like Seattle, spending about 90 million less than the Jays.

I’d give Varland a go.

Why are we trying to simulate conditions in Seattle..close the **** roof.

Seattle closes their roof too

I expect Varland is starting the spring as a SP next year, I think that’s why they wanted him

I have always hated how high our payroll has become.

[Randle McMurphy]

Bassitt pitching well here too

Had to go with Scherzer though

The rotation is not championship material.

The lineup is also not championship material.

But the payroll is close to championship material

Top 5 Payroll when you have guys like Santander, Gimenez, Hoffman, Berrios, Scherzer, and DFA guys like Chad Green providing little return on investment. Ross Atkins and Shapiro should take notes on the intelligent way Seattle constructed their team.

Probably but it would be a mistake.

[LoveMyRaps]

We got a lot of work to do this off-season.

Re-sign Bo and Bieber

Sign at least one of: Ranger Suarez, Freddy Peralta, Michael King

Gausman
Bieber
Peralta/Saurez/King
Yesavage
Berrios

[brwnman]

Another run that would have been stopped by Straws arm which Varsho couldn’t get to home from shallow CF.

The alternative is that we dont spend a lot and just be stuck in that 1994-2014 purgatory lol

Don't stop believinggggg

Atkins and Shapiro may be smarter than Seattle's FO. They fooled the Blue Jays owners into thinking getting this type of team with such a high payroll is money well spent.

[linery88]

We must have really begged MLB to allow us to open the roof thinking our offense would perform,but it being opened isn,t carrying our flyballs,but Seattle is having no problems against our meatball BP today.Maybe playing in Seattle will help our BP give up less meatball bombs

[Randle McMurphy]

Probably but I won’t blame em for trying

The guy throws 98 and throws like 3-4 other pitches for strikes. In theory it could work

[Stromile12]

Gimenez that tablet ain't gonna help you brotha

[linery88]

Dont swing at anything till 2ks.lolo

[Randle McMurphy]

Why is Barger swinging at a 3-1 pitch down 7 runs

Insanely dumb

[rarefind]

Raul Mondesi himself isn’t making that play.
