Re: GT: Jays @ Rockies / Sept 1-3
Funny thing is the replacement players are winning the games for us. Horwitz, Schneider, clement... would Chapman really make a difference offensively?

This is like your dream. A bunch of plug ass looking dudes just doing their jobs. And one has a ridiculous moustache.

Just want Bichette and his Bat back. Chapman should take all the time he wants. He would not make a difference offensively. Defensively of course Chapman makes a difference.

No. Not with RISP anyway.
But he's still the only guy who can field that position adequately, we do (regrettably) want him back.

Damn, great play. They're literally playing through a thunderstorm right now in this game.

They lost yesterday's game largely because they couldn't field groundballs.

We're selling low on Vlad in this scenario so some other team/hitting coach can fix him and make him a superstar? I don't like that plan.

Schneider, Horwitz, and Clement all had quietly very good seasons in Buffalo. They've all earned serious looks in the spring.
Schneider is a near lock to take Kiermaier's OF spot next year (with Varsho moving to CF full time). I don't see a spot for Horwitz, aside from Belt's job as platoon DH. I don't know if Clement can play a passable 2B or 3B, but he may take Espinal's job next season.
Nick Nurse recounting his first meeting with Kawhi:
“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."

Kiermaier will find another wallet somewhere else.

Martinez at 3rd. Vlad on a **** diet.

Is Schneider good enough defensively to play 2B full-time for them? Early returns have not been good there though.
