Great stuff by Bieber there. Just attacked the Yankees and got through the bottom of the order quickly to bring Rodon right back out.

The obsession is bizarre.

He got that clutch bloop hit one time like a month ago


Oh right. And then Shatkins built him a statue...

Which would make Rodon the only Starter this series for the Yankees to make it into the 5th. :lol:

The guy got a huge hit to help win a game literally two ABs ago lol

Yup..his at bats have been good regardless of results. He has shown a good eye, only swinging at good pitches, and most times has make the pitcher use 5+ pitches to get him out.

He isn't wiffing like Wells just did.

It's honestly not that much different and for a guy who has been integral to the Jays success, why is he sitting?

Worse yet, Santander: 7 for 48 against LHP.


Cuz Shatkins!

That is the numbers I saw earlier today. IKF should be parked on the bench. The scrub already cost a run and many more pitches for Bieber already.


I'd of course be happy for either to prove me wrong but yeah if IKF makes errors, there is no way he should be out there. He does practically nothing offensively.

What’s the point of being a switch hitter if you’re significantly better from one side of the plate

My only problem is playing IKF for some reason.


Santander hasnt been better than Barger. This is the post season. Theres no time to carry passengers or play guys based on contracts.

From a talent perspective, he’s also one of our best hitters as well

I like his chances of having an offensive impact in this series if we keep playing him

Barger is atrocious vs LHP and rightfully purely a platoon player in the postseason
