We gained an ace from this post-season.

We've been blessed with Trey Yesavage for years to come.


Im not convinced. The longer he’s seen the more his unique throwing angle will become less unique and he’s still mostly a 3 pitch guy with a mediocre fastball. Once guys adapt to his unique throwing angle he’s going to seem a lot less special with the Ks and it’s his swing and miss right now that makes him so special.


Yesavage is not commanding his fastball. His minor league walk rate is subpar - the league is going to adjust to laying off that splitter.


damn man saying we got another manoah/bowden? :cry:

Jays were the better team, no doubt....we out played the Dodgers in the series, we made their starters look hittable all series (Besides Yamo, who is bad bad man!).

WE just didn't cash in our ample oppturnties....We don't win many games, when we dont score more than 4 runs, we had bases loaded, we had runners on 2/3rd no outs, 1 out...it just crazy how we couldn't come through.

13 runners left of base in G6 and G7 is absolutely insane


Yea man... his arm cost us as well.

Made some nice defensive plays but he was still a huge negative.

Very disappointed in Varsho.


Players left on base is called the choking stat. Jays were 27th in the league on LOB. So they were literally asking to choke with each one stranded


It's also the "get on base" stat. You know what teams are great in this area? The ones who don't get on base.

lol those guys were not getting anywhere near the same amount of whiffs Yesavage does.

Are hitters going to adjust? Sure, but he's still not someone they see all the time and it will be difficult regardless.

Too many things to point to throughout the series but 2 outs away. Sac fly away. Simply didnt come through in the biggest moment. Truly the most cruel sport to watch.

The guy that's a difference maker is Tiedemann. He's in the Skubal/Crochet/Sale mold. Hopefully he's healthy.
Organization can be defined as an organized body of people with a particular purpose. Not random.

I know, I know, I should know better, but the negativity towards individual players in this thread is hard to take.

It was a hell of a season. Every player on the roster contributed in some way. A couple of small breaks just didn't go our way. Still really proud of the whole team and love these guys.

Yes, John Schneider has the intelligence matching his look - a clown. He has no feel for the game - and what's at stake. It's the Berrios pull all over again.

We had the bases loaded 3 times this game and came up with no runs. Two of those times were with 1 out. This one will linger when you missed that many opportunities.

I think he does. He's said this was the best team he's ever been on, and that was before they won the pennant.
Chris Bosh said how much he loved the city and his teammates before he signed with miami...

literally a non-factor

Pages was more productive than Lukes

Hoping this team can upgrade in both CF and LF, over both Lukes and Varsho for 2026. Rogers made plenty of money. Go sign Bellinger to be your everyday Centre Fielder, and acquire another power bat for LF.

we choked, we had 4-2 lead going into the 8th, even after the hr, we also had bases loaded with 1 out, and couldn't drive in a run or get a pop up to outfield (until Ernie was up)….

We had plenty of the opportunities to expand the lead or flat out win the game, and couldn't get it done. So many runner left on base, how many did Varsho alone leave on base tonight and this series.

This one stings cause we were better team overall, and should have won, but just like for whatever reason baseball gods didn't want us to take it. #9 hitter Rojas hit a HR in the 9th? You kidding me, yet the next batter othani he gets out!
