Bo Bichette & the Future of the Core | Blair and Barker Full Episode

[@katsinky5762]

I'm glad he said this finally. I was getting tired of the rumors and speculation about him wanting to go. I was waiting for him to talk. All this crap talk about him had so called fans being pretty nasty towards him. I hope him and Vladdy get a great contract and continue to play for the Bluejays.

Bo Bichette issues began with, *** 1. Dantes' history of Violence being discovered and Org.had him leave on his own accord. That alone would have opened up wounds of the past affecting his future. As a survivor I see things differently and I'm still trying to grapple with it and I'm 60 yrs old and this has been going on for me since age of 4. ***2. his batting stance is a correlation to his injuries that he has sustained since 2019; he must find another way that still remains natural and fluid to him and maybe he has to figure it out on his own; I would be highly disappointed if he did go to another team and his stance was changed; why would he not do that for us. *** 3. as with Bautista n Janssen, Bo was expecting more offensive help. Do you not remember how excited Jose was when we got Price (for me Tulo sucked he couldn't get past being traded); at that time we needed pitching more so. ***4. a lot of players would not be surprised if they were traded. *** I saw in some of the clips showing Bo being happy signing autographs and posing for pics and there is nothing wrong with self reflection; I think every human must do this and be self aware. I have always though it best to sign both Vlad and Bo and build the team around these two, not make them the one and only, it didn't work for Trout and Shohei????

Well said Barker. The 92,93 championship teams had legit veteran leaders surrounded by topnotch TEAM players. Ss manny lee and tony were good enough defensively and did not hurt in the playoffs. The key duo of robbie and joe were productive on the field without the nonsensical leadersship bs. Time to move on and not to cling on with over optimism . Great show always.

I worry about Bo's gimpy calf muscles down the road. I'm sure he wants to play on natural surface? I still believe a trade is incoming for Bo. Thanks for sharing.

Ohtani hasn't impacted the Dodgers play? How many injuries have they gone through, him and Lux are the only players that play every day

[@barbarasparkes1916]

MAYBE Bo reflected and realized that he wants to stay a Blue Jay after being away from the team. And what he said to Hazel is “he wouldn’t be surprised if he was traded” because of him playing bad

[@ROBsWatchin]

I'm with Barker

[@Bluejays-b8q]

Why not say that to sound like Bo wants to be here, at the end of the day, when he leaves it makes no difference

[@stevandrljevic8289]

Dodgers would not lead their division if Ohtani wasn't on the Dodgers. Injuries have killed them this year

[@allforoneandoneforall]

Offensive is down across the league *** Pitch Com *** thus makes it harder for players to steal sandwiches...

[@2222aaaa3333]

these contract distactions for bo and vlad are a total distraction for the team no wonder the blue jays team struggled for much of the year

[@rccyberwarrior2267]

No they struggled because of poor management and trading away talented hitters.

[@robinmaelbrancke2560]

Ben Schulman mentioned yesterday that the Yankees just posted their 32nd consecutive season finishing at or above. 500. The mountain is very very high in the AL East. Outside of Vladdy nobody seems to be able to hit a big league fastball. Trading away Kikuchi for prospects? Left handed starters are coveted by other top teams. He's lighting it up with the Astros.

[@anthonycastellano9300]

Barker seems like an upset 3-year-old who was told by mommy he can’t have anymore ice cream.

[@rccyberwarrior2267]

The cynical spin put on Bo's comments by the media is off base.

[@rccyberwarrior2267]

Trading away our talented players is why we are now in the basement of the AL East. If we lose Vladdy and Bo this team will be a total bust.

[@rccyberwarrior2267]

With the way the Jays are treating their best players, who would want to play here?

[@allforoneandoneforall]

For me it is a no to; Soto, Bregman, Alonso...we can now trade for the offense and we must stop overpaying (this shows discrimination amongst owners/front offices against an organisation that is outside of their reality; MAGA) and resign Teo.

[@2222aaaa3333]

rogers organization is a dysfunctional organization and cheap to their star players bo and vlad should want to get as far away from rogers organization as possible

[@rccyberwarrior2267]

Exactly, they traded away Teoscar and Gurriel because they did not want to pay them what they are worth.

[@rccyberwarrior2267]

The problem is that the FO and ownership have not signed long term deals with our two young All Stars which ought to have happened years ago -- now the media and others are casting aspersions on them for trying to get their contracts completed. Shame on the Jays organization and its captive media.

[@doinitforfun888]

Blair, why is Davis Schneider on this team? he stinks!! Springer needs to jump on the first pitch fast ball. The catcher cost the Jays the game he needs to catch the fast ball or get a bigger glove!!
