@thehazelmae @MitchBannon Lauer had a career year last year.
He acts as if he is an all star pitcher which he isn’t.
He made a mistake going to arbitration.
Lauer is a ginormous distraction that they don’t need.

@KeeganMatheson It is not a good idea bringing Hoffman into a game with runners on base.
25% of his flyballs turn into home runs.

[Gerry @gerry649]

@KeeganMatheson It seems John Schneider is using Hoffman like he used Anthony Santander early in the season.
Santander hit .175 in 29 G in April and Schneider continued to bat him 3rd in batting order game after game.

In 3 years 4.28 ERA, not much of a return for Teoscar Hernandez.

@KeeganMatheson In the last 30 days, the 4th (Francis) & 5th starters have a cumulative
12 starts,
7.08 ERA,
40.2 IP (3.1 IP/start)
52 H,
18 BB,
15 HR (3.3 HR/9),
1.72 WHIP.
It’s amazing they are 35-30.

[Gerry @gerry649]

@KeeganMatheson They have 5 pitchers in the bullpen that are on pace to throw 70 innings or more.
I have a feeling Schneider is going to burn out the bullpen before the season is over.
You can’t get by with only 3 starting pitchers.

@BlueJays @MLB @BuffaloBisons @MiLB @MLBPipeline @spencerturnbull José Ureña stats with NYM before DFA:

The Blue Jays felt this deserved a 1 yr MLB contract.

@wideawake2024 @anders_aslund During the election campaign he said he would cut gas and electricity prices by 50%.
We are still waiting for that to happen.

[Gerry @gerry649]

@TodayJays The Blue Jays have too many guys not hitting.
Guerrero and Bichette have hit 1 HR in 25 games.
Their lineup does not scare any body.
The lack of offence is putting a lot of pressure on the starting pitching especially with Scherzer not pitching.
Now they play the Yankees. YIKES!

[Gerry @gerry649]

@BlueJays Blue Jays last 9 games:
3-6
.194 AVG
5 HR
25 runs

Andrés Giménez is hitting .114 AVG (4 for 35) with 1 run scored and 0 RBI over last 9 games.

He should not be hitting 4th or 5th in the batting order.

[Gerry @gerry649]

@ShiDavidi Nightmare Scenario:
What is going to happen if one of their 4 starters gets hurt?
They have no starting pitching help in their minor leagues at all.
Their scouting has been atrocious.

[Gerry @gerry649]

@ShiDavidi Giving Bassit (36) and Gausman (34) less rest between starts is not a good idea.

It’s unbelievable how mediocre the Blue Jays farm system is for starting pitching.
If Scherzer doesn’t come back soon, they are in huge trouble.

@BlueJays After 24 games Bo Bichette and Vladimir Guerrero Jr have combined for a total of 1 HR.

They have 3 players that have hit more than
1 HR in 24 games:
Gimenez 3 HR (none since March 30)
Santander 2 HR
Springer 2 HR

They have hit only 5 HR with men on base in 24 games.

@KeeganMatheson Josh Walker last night:

Is he supposed to be better than Easton Lucas??

[Gerry @gerry649]

@DawnPalzewicz @SanderRegter They are afraid of being arrested and being put in jail for no reason, especially people in their 70s and 80s who only want to visit their family.
He is driving tourists away from the USA.
