So the Jays are pretty good against the best teams didn’t see that sweep coming.

A lot of tension in our house the next few days with my Son being a Blue Jays fan and me being a Yankees fan.

Have your child tested by MENSA. He sounds like a smart kid!

My Dad says he's a traitor. I'd rather him like who he wants to like instead of forcing him into liking a team. My parents did that with me when I was young with Philadelphia teams. I wasn't going to do that to my Son.

Key base running goofs by veteran players in scoring position are an embarrassment...like there was no reason for them to be running with less than 2 outs!!! Wake tf up.

Nice blast by Springer...finally.

Let’s hope they can build on that, it hasn’t been pretty the last 6 games.
We really need this series against the O’s

The umpire has been really bad in this game calling balls and strikes.

Well it’s going to be a long season, we really need to do something with pitching.

These losses in divison are going to make it very difficult to even sniff a playoff chance.

I would definitely recommend that the front office invests in some bullpen arms. If Liam Hendriks gets up to speed before long, maybe they could go after him.

Agree, they definitely need to do something before the trade deadline or all the off season moves will be for nothing.

So now they are on pace for an 88 win season and finishing last in their division? Yeah, I guess I was completely wrong in my assessment of this team.

Still lots of time to turn it around though and I really hope they do.

Jays are scuttling right now for sure.

Pitching has been decent but the hitting has been atrocious minus Bo and Vlad.... Merrifield is hot currently after an ice cold start, after a great start Chapman has fallen off a cliff, Belt has been a burnout so far, catchers (Jansen/Kirk) and Springer are not hitting their weight, Biggio seems like a lost cause, Espinal is an empty jersey, new guy Varsho is just not as advertised so far

The whole team needs to be hitting when bases are loaded.
It’s getting tough to watch and the divison is slipping away fast.

Is it too early to say the Jays need to sell off before the trade deadline and rebuild the whole pitching staff?
Not sure this team will be able to climb out of the hole they dug this season.
I understand compared to other divisions they would be in good shape but if you can’t win games against your own divison you’ll never make the playoffs.

Waaaay too early. They’re slumping and still have the same record as the AL Central leader.
