10/10 video simply for the Hook discussion. Well done, gents. Smee ya' later.

I dont get people's reactions to Bo's comments. He'd have to be a dummy to be surprised if he got traded. He just answered matter of fact.

Get rid of Psychopath home plate umpires.

Someone tell Juan vladdy is never heading to Seattle. We don’t want their fringe prospect

Only 2 teams in the Eastern Conference had a plus record their last 10 games. Yankees lost 7 of last 10. Jays lost 8. Are the Yankees going to fire their coaching staff. Jays rookies are now getting some playing time. They don’t look bad. Why panic? Seems back office already doing the panicking for us. Doesn’t Martinez even get a trial?

the decision making is incredibly incompetent. Bo and Vlad are epic disappointments. you can't build anything around either. look at it which ever way you want and it's broken. this team isn't much above A ball level in performance. it's not mlb caliber baseball. some people still seem to like Vlad. that amazes me. the big homer he hit last night is the outlier. his at bat in the 9th the night before is far and away the norm. his numbers for a 3 hitter who literally never misses games are embarrassing and would be topped by almost any other 3 hitter in baseball. when does he ever carry the team? he never does. how many of his few homers or rbis actually matter. plenty of garbage time hits in those low numbers. shushing the crowd and strutting after a meaningless late inning homer in New York? who does that? now remember how many times he doesn't run hard. how many times he's admired a double into a single thinking he has a homer. how many times he makes the same type baserunning mistakes. getting picked off to pretty much end last season in the most humiliating manner. I think he's the number 1 issue on this team and people are still caught up in the 80 hitting score prospect he was sold as. the rotation will age out before this lineup gets fixed. fire them all. trade them all. the most embarrassing era of Jays baseball ever.

What happens if this circus ships Vlad to the Yanks?

1) do they not test at all in the minors? why do so many players test positive shortly after call up? 2) if sticky substances are so powerful and effective why are the suspensions for using it not on par with ped suspensions? Seems kinda whack to me

Probably the best thing that could have happened to Jays. Do you want these power vampire hitting coaches getting their hooks into him?

This Joey Votto news is starting to sound like a lot of BS. And if you think bringing in another washed up player to save us we are all nuts. He will just be taking away time from the buffalo boys. IMO get rid of KK GS right away. Don’t let Votto play at all and let’s just watch the Buffalo boys.

Scotts touching on something here with Berroa not getting minutes, not giving the kid time to see what opposing pitchers are like in this stint is fucking criminal. Springer is the worst hitter in the league this year. It doesnt harm Springer to sit out s gsme or 2 in a cold streak, but denying Berroa ABs does stunt his development. Like you said, Berroas not your savior here but the point is to a) give him a push in the right direction and b) evaluate what the kids got to see if he is worth saving a spot on the roster for in the future. We are so mismanaged its borderline criminal.

There is no way Atkins should be able to fire and hire another manager considering the team is still paying Montoya for another one of Atkins mistakes. It is absolutely Atkins and Shapiro that must be fired to start with.

Horowitz why have Jays waited so long for him to get called up and be a regular? Minor league stats look good for the past 3-4 years. Any extenuating circumstances that we may not have heard?

You can't say that George Springer hasn't had the opportunity to knock in runs, yet he sits at 15 RBI about halfway into the season. The dude is the king of the strikeout, popup, and double play with guys in scoring position.

GM for 2025 -> Alex Cora Manager - Russel Martin

Shatkins, Mattingley, Schneider, Martinez all need to go. Rogers needs to grow a pair

Shapiro and Atkins are connected....we need them both fired...send them packing back to USA...and good riddance

Is Lukes still injured?

JAYS finish June with straight L's.

People need to realize that their current record does not reflect how bad this team is. The 7 game losing streak is just the start lol

The Shapiro group approach just doesn't work. He needs to go or this nonsense will continue.

Fire Atkins, Mattingly, Schneider and Martinez. Promote Click, Hale and Hague. Trade all the players on expiring contracts. Cover the salary so you can buy prospects. Sign Vlad and Jansen. Completely redo the drafting and development because they suck

One of the first things i learned in the corporate world is when you're in a hole, stop digging! Atkins is the only one holding a shovel. Of course, Shapiro is the coxman supervising the dig.

Mark will never hire Kim Ng. She is only an option if Shapiro goes, Unfortunately that is too much to hope for.

Trade everyone the makes more than the min. Send the front office to live on that farm in the country side where all your pets went when you were a kid.

Scott I hope you’re cheering for the Oilers tonight!

How are we not talking about DeMarlo Hale taking over?!

All the Jays need to do now is finish of June with straight L's to get the party started and the clear out commenced. Be nice to have the kids in full time for the second half.

The Shapiro model does not work. Until he is gone this team will continue to flounder.

The Jays need to hire Kim Ng

So I guess your co-host is just never coming back?

If there is one player to be traded it's Turner. With Turner off the 40 Horwitz can share time with Vlad at 1B/DH. It gives plenty of time to evaluate Horwitz.

Friendly reminder that Dante Bichette is a child abuser

Ya and Jon Jones really only ever took gas station boner pills

I may listen, I may not, to this pod. But just so you all know, it is official, the season is over, and this FO sucks a**. I still love the game and going to the ballpark. So If I get wind that they are doing a rebuild and are letting kids play, they (the Jays) may get a dollar from me if it is at least for future success. PS God bless every one of you on the panel for enduring this cluster fu*K of a team with such dedication. I hope that a future leadership team at the Jays makes things right by giving you something to cheer for.

If I worked in the Blue Jays front office, what would I have to do to lose my job ?

the Jays stink worse than my poop...and my poop REALLY stinks...

Honestly, what else could possibly go wrong?! It was Votto cranking his first pitch into the stands (sort of) then rolling his ankle on a bat left on the dugout floor that set the stage for this epic season.

Hope Joel gets a speedy recovery & feels better sooner than later!🙏 Also, beautiful close to the show...so many arent fully aware of pro baseball's history as relates to black players; some cannot even fathom the unfortunate things that happened. Reggie Jackson's super-important education of the masses will turn out to be pivotal for many, hopefully bringing deeper understanding & appreciation. Speaking of appreciation, luv how Juan broached the subject unapologetically...much respect! Also, Joel LaFlamme spoke eloquently about it recently & i have nothing but respect for him as well. Screed done...cheers for bearing with me.

The Jays stink worse than my farts after a night of binging Taco Bell

Don’t believe a single word he said . Clomiphene is one of the most famous banned substances in sports - if he was using it legitimately (dubious) any competent doctor would have told him to disclose it .

A 22-year-old guy is actually trying to get his girlfriend pregnant? The premise behind the excuse sounds a bit far-fetched. Interestingly enough, one of the more common reasons for male fertility issues at his age is steroid use. The type of drug he tested positive for helps to mitigate the testicular atrophy and fertility issues that come along with long-term steroid use.

Dumpster fire of a team 🔥🔥

Just another nail

Ooootro dominicano haciendo trampa. Ya esto es algo vultural. Las mujeres pesistas, los corredores, los peloteros. Al dominicano que no han cogido con drogas es porque no le han hecho la prueba.

“Orelvis was upset, disappointed and pretty honest for a young kid when he told us,” Blue Jays manager John Schneider said before the team's finale against the Guardians. “He's obviously humbled and knows he made a mistake. We're going to support him through the process.” He made a 'MISTAKE". He's a cheater. If he was a police officer, the world would be calling for him to be fired. However, money making talent in the sports world usually gets "support" until they can return to making wealth for their bosses.

What else could actually go wrong? Time to clean house completely and tear it down. Shapiro OUT. Atkins OUT. Schneider OUT. Vlad JR. and Dante OUT. Get picks and prospects and start over. Absolutely cannot be worse.

Good solid podcast - tell it like it is!
