I think it's my turn with the quote.

 

If he's a good pitcher why don't he pitch good?

Hes played below replacement level. That's unacceptable. End of.

Damn, that wasn't really a bad pitch on the HR. Jansen just turned on it.

He doubled off a Felix splitter almost at his ankles last night.

Baker slumping a bit.  Our offense needs to pick up the defense 

We're not hitting that well right now. Mateo and Ortiz are offensive black holes at the moment. Gunnar is pouting. Moutcastle is HR or bust. Adley is in a mini slump.

This will be a tough loss if we can’t score some runs. 

[Dunk35]

I hate Toronto. They have a top 7 payroll and are a bunch of pricks. This division is a GRIND. 

[Gurgi]

So if Mateo basically free falls back to a .220 hitter..............is he still valuable enough to keep playing everyday at SS?

[O's84]

Vavra = not enough power there.

No.

Leadoff single, then Vavra and Mateo. Easy rally killers.

At least we don't have to see them as often.

[O's84]

Mateo continues to struggle big time

[Hank Scorpio]

Mateo 2 for his last 42.

I know Jays have more lefties than usual but to me if you are going to criticize anything it’s keeping Irvin up here. 
 

Issue is having an available RHP to pitch. They thought I guess Givens may have been back. 

[Gurgi]

Mateo might just be better used as a utility guy that can pinch run for you in close games.
