What's this about pitching being a chronic problem? The Jay's pitching and defense have been their only bright spot for a few years now... BATTING has been the problem...
While the pitchers have for sure had their off-nights. They have been consistently good over the last few years. But I can't begin to count the number of 3-1, 4-2, etc. games that the Jays have lost over the last few years, and it's been a LOT. |
No one said it has been a chronic problem, nor has it been their main problem. Everyone knows that their hitting has been the problem but this year is a completely different animal. Their pitching staff is completely different, you don't lose your 2/3/4 and projected 5 starter without replacing them and think you will do anywhere near as good or get the same kinds of results from the pitching staff. Who did they replace those guys with? A bunch of rookies that otherwise never would have made the cut. They haven't been burnt by it yet but once teams have a second go around to some of these new guys, once they start making adjustments to them I think the Jays will be having a much harder go at things. |

you people are so negative, us drunk americans always have a positive outlook in regards to sports. I bet even if the b.j.s make it to the post season i will still be reading , were going to lose first round, were never going to be able to beat boston, etc. freggin cry babies ... dont think the blue jays dont know that toronto is a bunch of wankers thats prolly why they havent been performing the last 2 decades hahaha |
you are mistaking being negative for being realistic |

I like the Jays start, but they always cool down in May.
The pitching staff is a pop gun staff. Even though they had the best pitching staff in the majors last year, this staff isn't even close.
Also, the Jays will not hit at this pace for a whole season. Marco Scutaro is not a true lead off hitter.
Wait til the Jays play some teams in the AL East and then we'll talk. Boston, Tampa and New York will be bashing the ball all over with that pitching staff.
Watch out for Zack Greinke starting for the Royals. That kid is the real deal. I love Roy Halliday, but Greinke will be better than him this year. Just watch. |
