it doesnt matter how great your pitching staff is if you can't score runs.

The Blue Jays are 1-8 and hitting .190 after a 2-1 loss to the Orioles. Two teams in the wild-card era started 1-8 and made the playoffs: The '95 Reds, who won 19 of their next 22; and the 2012 Rays, who won 13 of their next 16.

management is atrocious you struggled scoring runs last year to, so what do you do?: you don't resign the guy who lead the al in runs and rbis.

You replace edwin and michael saunders who had 66 home runs and 184 rbis between them with steve pearce and justin smoak

Tickets bout to be easy to get, finally. :blessed:

BTW, who didn't see this happening? Alex should have never been fired and this front office they got is trash.

Rogers :pacspit:

shapiro ate of alex players last year

the writing was on the wall when the jays did nothing to bolster their team in the offense.

robbers deserves this for being cheap

team is 2-10 and they have to win 8 in a row to even get back to .500

jays went from scoring the most runs two years ago in like a decade to now being dead last in all of baseball

and its only gonig to get worse. only thing keeping the jays alive is their pitching and you cant depend on stroman, sanchez, estrada

Rogers actually thinks that jays fans are loyal but there not, by june/july 10,000 in the seats.

Was saying it over the offseason that they need to blow it up. They peaked two years ago.

Gibby has been there too long, with his patented bring in a new pitcher with the bases loaded. Hero ball. Not utilizing the lineup properly.

Edwin not being signed was the cherry on top of a the spectacular mess this season will become.

Letting Edwin gowws stupid. He wasn't even that expensive, hell the Jays spent more money on signing Morales and pearce.

It's funny Jays got a young pitching staff but old ass positional players.

Should have got rid of Bautista when you had the chance, used that money on pitching. Now Donaldson is showing injury issues, might not even play 120 games this year.

Will be sad when the Expos are back in 2-3 years and in World Series contention while the Jays are drawing 10k.
