Game Day 2023 Thread

I understand the logic of putting position players in to pitch in order to save your pitchers, but man is it tough to watch. This will make the offence look more respectable over the past 10 games, which feels a bit misleading…

That was brutal to watch

I am glad the Jays didn’t let up. It is worse when teams get let off the hook for that. If you are going to put uncompetitive pitchers out there in a Major League Baseball game you have to accept any embarrassment that comes.

Has a GM ever fired 3 managers and stuck around?

If this season goes south it will be interesting to see what type of decisions ownership makes.

I have always been in the camp that baseball takes a long time to evaluate (players, coaches and GM’s). I defended Shapiro and Atkins early as any good management needs to draft and develop talent to succeed. They wanted waves of prospects every year. It looks pretty bare right now.

It isn’t looking good. We have plenty of sample size to evaluate

Atkins' head is next to roll after Schneider. Shapiro will survive this since I think his focus has been on the renos, which have been largely lauded.

The real question is: who do they roll out this time? Gibby or Cito?

So disappointed with this season so far. Last place, barely .500, lots of guys looking to get paid, division strong as ever.

Atkins cannot win the ALE. He doesn’t understand what it takes.
