Whatever man. On to tomorrow.
Don't need to get kicked out. Pile on if you want, I don't care. Kirby should have been pulled. Don't like my opinion? Too bad.

This scenario is the worst case that I thought of. We are giving them light and hope.

My question only to you my guy was WHEN should you pull him.... you wreck your bullpen at that point...

Kirby looks like shit tonight, but I agree not pulling him. It’s 1 game. Save the pen for a game that we have a chance in. Give the offense a chance to come back then use the pen. Otherwise put this on Kirby as much as possible to rest everyone else.
At this point, sure. But it didn't need to get to 7 runs. Only point I was trying to make. We kicked their asses in game 2, vice versa tonight.

Early. Much earlier. I have a right to my opinion. And I know a HELL of a lot more about baseball than you think I do.

Kirby was clearly not locked in at all..... but let him hang.... as long as possible... have Castillo and bullpen handle it tomorrow

Was never a Kirby fan after he rejected signing my kids ball and all the players telling her he doesnt do that.. but signing hers anyways

We even made a special sign...

as a person.. hes a "special" kinda dude.... Ill root for him as a Mariner.. but not as a person

Sorry man. I'm pissed off. Time for my to put the phone down. No words can describe how much I want this team in the WS. If you knew me, you would understand.

Oh well. They kept on adding. They're a very good hitting team. I'd like to see us get some hits and runs even if it's not enough tonight.

Again my question was.. you wanted to pull him in inning 2? Then depleat our BP for the next 2 games at home? That was my honest question

Sportsnet is reporting 25 to 30 percent jays fans but Canadian news outlets are usually full of misinformation.

So not even half the 30k you claimed would be there, if that 30% number is even correct, which I very much doubt.

For there supposedly being so many Jays fans there, they sure are quiet considering how much they've had to cheer about so far.

A very real discussion needs to be had about our offense at home in the playoffs. We are yet to have a good offensive game in the Dipoto era.

0 runs in 18 innings in 2022.
2 runs in 11 innings in gm1 vs Detroit
3 runs in gm2 vs Detroit
3 runs in 15 innings in gm5 vs detroit

Why do we suck at hitting at home, especially in the playoffs?

Which is fine. Until you act like I don't know baseball. Far from the truth.
