  1. These losses don’t even hurt anymore, I’ve fully accepted the season is over and I don’t have any expectations so I can’t get hurt. Now I’m focusing on trying to find joy in baseball where I can.

    Like the Yankees absolutely imploding. God is that beautiful.

  2. Gausman: Hey boys, I’ll offer 6 innings of *almost perfect pitching* with 10Ks on the side. Just give me some run support please!

    Jays batters: Great offer Gaus! But, the best we can offer is 2 hits 👍🏻

  3. Well, it was a pretty good night for fans of the Kevins! Just don’t focus too much on the other guys :/

  4. Another night where the offence failed to support a solid start, this is becoming all too familiar, disappointed if you ask me.

  5. This is concrete proof beyond any reasonable doubt that pitching and defence do NOT win baseball games. I don’t expect Ross Atkins to be paying attention though.

  6. 10 games under .500, losing 90 games looks very realistic. How no one has been fired is ridiculous 

  7. Dalton had an all world catch that will be watched for years and we will see in top play highlight packages, otherwise not much to really look back on once again. The defence disappeared once again.

  8. I dont know what to say ANYMORE about this team, we know they are awful, even when the offense shows up the Bullpen Blows it, even when our starting pitching shows up the offense could not hit water if they fell out of a boat. We are at the point now where it feels like the locker room is lost.

    I dont get how you can put up this level of performance with a 230 million dollar payroll. Like this is just unacceptable and if Shapiro isnt willing to move off of Atkins, can his ass too.

  9. Our starters deserves a much better team. Another great start completely wasted.

  10. 1 run off of 2 hits. Mariners pitching staff is no joke but come on man. What is our “offensive coordinator” doing? He doesn’t seem to be helping much

  11. Hard to win games with 2 hits.

    The Astros cemented the season being over, this is just adding on.

    The only next step is to accept that this team will not compete in 2025 without a major overhaul… with an already barren Jays farm system and the highest payroll in Jays history being spent this season.

  12. It’s clear what’s wrong, this team needs more defense. Trade some more bats. It’s clear that 10 K’s and a huge catch from Varsho saving two runs is not enough.

  13. So glad I didn’t spend $500+ to travel from Victoria and watch the Jays this year. Bum ass team. I can’t be alone on this

  14. How many games this year have we failed to get 3+ hits this season? This feels like like the 15th time at least

  15. Please fire the front office and blow this team up. It’s really sad to see the Jays in this state with such a huge and dedicated fan base. We don’t deserve this.

  16. A Shatkins special for the ages.

    Or at least for a game or two.

    Fuck Shapiro, Fuck Atkins, been saying this for fucking years.

  17. 10 games under .500, a run differential of -62. The season has been over for a while now tbh. Just play the young talent to see what we have. Trade and get what we can from expiring contracts. Just hope that this will force some major change around the organization

  18. The lack of comments in our post game threads is very telling about the state of the fan base
