The implication was we're gonna be sellers and blow it up.

I can't believe this team cost over $210 million dollars.

6-14 against the AL East. In last place in our division. Who saw that coming?

I guess bringing in more white players didn't help with fostering winning culture (sorry if someone already made this joke).

If Yimi throws 27 more innings or appears in 25 more games this season, then his 2024 option becomes guaranteed at $6M.

Unfortunately, he's not only not being traded but the Jays are probably stuck with him for next season unless he misses a lot of time the rest of this season.

Maybe he just assumes Manoah is giving up 12 runs.
9. Similarly, IF THOU HAST SPENT the entire offseason predicting that thy team will stink, thou shalt not gloat, nor even be happy, shouldst thou turn out to be correct. Realistic analysis is fine, but be a fan first, a smug smarty-pants second.

Relax. It's only May. We have a nice cushion in the standings. We can afford to throw away a few games against division rivals.

Biggio boots a double play ball to cost the Jays a run in the 1st.

Serious teams don't put out lineups like this in division when they are struggling for wins.
One flew east, one flew west, one flew over the cuckoo’s nest.
