Whoever signs Chapman this off-season is going to have a miserable time. And Vladdy is in for a rude awakening when he sees his contract go to Bo

Surely you can find better things to do

And just as I write that vlad misses a hanging slider down the middle. ****...

Astros chipping away at the Mariners

Vlad hurt? Make Belt the full-time 1B and DH Schneider.

The question we should be asking ourselves at this point is whether that a good thing. We have the tiebreaker against Houston and Seattle is on fire with a very easy schedule.

Have never seen anybody choke at the plate as much as this guy has.

Sadly before this year he was flat across all leverage situations (around .800 in each)

Something is clearly going on in his head right now - he is sad in critical situations.
And while no other Jay has such a gross split, I think the trend of poorer play in High vs Low is far from unique.

He’s been the exact opposite of clutch this season

Why are all the Jays pulling the ball in the air (except Vlad)? New hitting coach?

Boogie! · Post #334 » by **Boogie!** » Sun Aug 20, 2023 6:49 pm

Why can't we get at least half of this offense consistently.

Prime prospect, a second overall pick, and the Reds are hanging him out to dry like they want to teach him some humility

Best hitting lineup the Jays can put together. Schneider as pinch hitter if needed. No more kirk

This is the lineup that needs to be put forward most days down this stretch. No more seeing Espinal playing regularly, Chapman hitting 7th, Kirk sitting more in favour of Jansen, and Biggio playing once a while. Hopefully, Schneider sticks to this lineup and does not do his usual juggling act with the lineup, which he cannot stop himself from doing. Lineup paying dividends today.

Belt KK and Whit have been awesome sucks the young guys (mainly Vlad + Manoah) didn't pull their weight at all this year.

Which predictions will be the closest to being right?
