Jays hitting is on the side of a milk carton. F sakes.

We are not as good as our record. I really hope Teo can spark our offense as 25 games in, it’s time to worry. This is the time to make the adjustments, not at 80 games into the season. I please keep your it’s only 25 games. Adjustments early could drive another 5-10 wins and every win counts…we should know that lesson from last year.

2021 slash line after 25 games: .234/.309/.401 record of 13-12

2022 slash line after 25 games: .244/.302/.406 record of 15-10

They are actually hitting better than this point last year, and a much better winning percentage.

RISP we are almost last…clutch hitting is what wins championships.

Nice to see Bo get it going though would’ve been nice to get that runner from 3rd home with only one out.

I was hoping that with Teoscar back, Zimmer could have been blasted into outer space and the black hole in the lineup that he's been.

So happy Teo is back. Our lineup looks so much better. Need a better left handed bat now.

What a disappointing loss. This team is so underwhelming and losing these games will haunt them later in the season.

This team needs to get its #@#@#@#@ together. Stop chasing out of the strike zone. Vlads bat snap after the strikeout was on him and a pitch so far out. They need to bring Dante back to work with the team.

It’s been a frustrating May so far. I think the boys know it’s not good right now.
I do think the bats are too talented to not figure it out.
I’m a little more worried about Romano, hopefully he doesn’t have a small injury cause his Velo was down last night.

Still wondering why Romano went with his 2'nd best pitch to Judge but i'm sure he had his reasons. Also Garcia getting booted without a warning just makes your head shake.

Springer leaving the game hurt.

This team is painful to watch. Need a spark! Call up Moreno?

There needs to be a shake up. I think you need to swap the batting order around.

Espinal (while Springer is out)
Vlad
Bo
Teo
Kirk
Lourdes
Chapman
…..

Vlad needs to be in that 2 spot. I like the protection around him but those guys need to get hot too. Those Josh Bell rumours are also fascinating...

Is that a thing? I’ve been thinking the past few days that they need to go get Bell.
