Guess they could have played Vilade. Oh wait!~Lightning Rod wrote: ↑11 Jun 2025 14:22 pm Left handed pitcher starts for Toronto so we counter with 3 lefty hitting outfielders, talk about roster constuction.
Not to pick on you (or anyone), but we all tend to forget that a baseball season is a marathon and not a sprint. I'm guilty as well. We're sky high when a kid has a few good weeks and we're ready to run them off the team after a few bad weeks. Guys get hot, guys cool off. Guys have great years and then not-so great years.Alex Reyes Cy Young wrote: ↑11 Jun 2025 14:22 pmI was super fan for a while still am but he’s starting to make me a non believer.

But...
While his speed screams CF, his arm keeps crying out LEFT FIELD. Anyone else feel VSII is a future left-fielder?
I'm afraid our pitching isn't good enough to win consistently, add that to our spotty offense and you have a fourth place team. The slide is just beginning.Strummer Jones wrote: ↑11 Jun 2025 14:26 pm I think we're about done, fellas. It was a nice month. But being unable to get the scrubs in the bottom 2/3rds of this line up out is killer.
Yup. This team stinks on ice.cbcardsfan wrote: ↑11 Jun 2025 14:30 pm This pitching staff is awful. It’s falling off the cliff. Any good impression they’ve given in the first two months was a mirage.

I still think Scott is going to have a really nice career.
