I appreciate everything that George Springer brings to the MLB He gives 100 % effort whenever he is on the field . He is a great teammate and always is a team player . He has declined but I’m sure George is doing everything he can to try and fix it that he can . I wish him the best , and even if he doesn’t make the turn thank you George for Everything and a great career .
I still blame Guillermo Martinez for the lack of hitting on the entire Jays team - he is the head hitting coach after all. Good hitters come here then start sucking after a season of his "coaching"...
I also think the lack of offense is is putting extra stress on the pitching staff to "be perfect" which is not working out too well for them. They know if they give up a few runs, the Jays are likely losing the game.
No disrespect to Springer, but it's not tragic, it was 100% forseeable. He was a huge get, and by far the best free agent option the year he was available...but...an aging player with an injury history? Who signs that player to a 6 year contract? I wish the man nothing but the best, he seems like a class act, but the current situation is more about mismanagement in the front office than the decline of the player himself.
I’ve been a long-time George Springer fan since his years at UConn. It tears me up to see him continuously struggle at the plate. He’s a wonderful human being and doesn’t deserve to see his wonderful career go down the tube. I also feel for Toronto fans. I just feel that if he stayed with Houston things would have been different. It seems ti me, since he became a husband and father that his baseball play has gone down hill.
Here is a breakdown of Springers positive production percentage. 2020 .707. 2021 .722. 2022 .653. 2023 .583 and 2024 .475. A steady drop since 2021. I would take Springer at 2022 levels. Right now he should not be a starter.
Over the past year there has been reasons to dump alot pf players. Many of them are still regulars. There will always be debate on how long you allow someone to fix whatever the struggle is. I think they should have dumped Kikuchi and Manoah long ago. They stuck with Kikuchi and he is doing well for now. Some ppl wanted to dump Varsho and Biggio. Everyone's name has come up at some point. I think Springer has alot of talent and affected by whatever garbage is going on within the organization.
Tragic???? Come on, he's aging and that happens to all people who don't die. Unfortunate is a better way to describe his production. It doesn't matter the season is likely done and if they have sense a Total rebuild will happen soon.
Throw the bag at Soto in the offseason and then trade Springer. If the Vernon Wells contract can be traded so can his. Sign Tyler O’Neill let KK walk/retire. Outfield next year Varsho O’Neill Soto
I love how everyone is so shocked. If you have bad management and bad coaching, your players are going to suck. Why is this such a difficult concept to grasp?
Everybody agrees GS is a bust. I suggest trade Bo with the condition the other team takes Springer as well, Jays will pay some potion of his remaining salary. Maybe 1/3
He basically started washing as soon as he joined the Jays. I remember Bautista's last season (he was very solid in RF that same season too) but he hit 23 HRS batting .204 with just over .300 OBP and jays wouldn't resign him. Those numbers in today's lineup wouldn't be bad at all LOL
Springer's production is beginning to look scarily like the end of Jose Bautista's Blue Jays tenure. 2015 Bautista was incredible, homers left right and center. But 2016 was a big step back, but due to injuries. You can relate 2021 and 2022 Springer to those years and 2023-2024 is starting to look like 2017 Bautista who looked lost at the plate and hit for barely any power anymore. It's sad but hopefully Sprigner can turn it around and go out with a blaze of glory instead of just a puff of smoke.
It was gonna happen, especially with his injury history, but with the bad management and coaching it certainly doesn’t help at all. As a Yankee fan, (not the annoying fan thank you very much!) I appreciate you mentioning the… assistance he got in 2017, no we haven’t forgotten.
What a team pays for a player is the responsibility of the front office. So, if you're not happen with what you got, talk to the front office. This is the least of their screw ups. That being said, last year - and even more so this year - at least when Springer comes up to the plate, I have a certain level of hope and confidence that he will deliver something. And that is way higher than the level of hope and confidence I have for the Jays 'super stars" when they step up. BTW, Springer also brings fun, spirit, and heart to both the team and the game. But that has NEVER mattered to the Shapiro / Atkins front office. The higher level of confidence also applies to Davis Schneider, Ernie Clement, Dalton Varsho, and Isiah Kiner-Falefa. Our "super stars" are definitely not delivering what we all say they are supposed to be capable of. Why don't you analyze that!
He's still the clubhouse leader and when he plays well, the whole team plays well... but when he sucks, the team sucks! Management needs to be creative and get him gone like how AA did with Vernon Wells. I'd go so far as to force him on another team in a Bo Bichette trade. You'd be taking back less in prospect capital obviously, but you'd be changing the culture back in the right direction, have more free agent spending money and be better able to compete for a wildcard spot next year.
there are many of Blue Jays players who have their ups and downs but we don't get rid of them. He is a fantastic receiver of catches! give him a break! he is one of my favorite blue Jays.❤❤❤
Has a bad history of cheating with performance enhancement drugs. I wouldn't be surprised one bit if the whole team is being tested right now and getting back bad results, hence the bad performance of the club this season.

Agreed. One or two players underperforming is one thing, but the entire team underperforming points to the coaching staff.
Mattingly does nothing either, they need to clean house.
So true lost at the plate taking pitches down the middle swinging at bad pitches.
I also think the lack of offense is is putting extra stress on the pitching staff to "be perfect" which is not working out too well for them. They know if they give up a few runs, the Jays are likely losing the game.
Yeah I’ve been saying it too why the fuck are we talking about blowing up this entire team BEFORE firing this “hitting coach” WTF.

We knew Springer's production was going to decline at some point during this contact. It just hurts to actually see it happen
It's time for him to go sadly...

Like ????? how did this happen !!!! also RIP to all that money we paid.
Atkins......
The entire TEAM has been a DUMPSTER fire 🔥. Where to start and WHO to blame
No garbage cans to hit in Toronto!
George is still great. If he struggles at bat he is still great in the field. He'll bounce back.
i think the concussion in the 2022 wild card ruined him. yes, you can argue age, but i don’t expect a failure that big due to age.
Springer isn't good. He hasn't been good for a while. Time for him to go!
He was good from 21-23
@@Notjackpausner.260 batting average and about 23 home runs. Good but not great
as soon as a player meets guillermo martinez their hitting career is over

Completely agree, 2022 was good, since then it has been unacceptable

Injuries and old age killed him
He is having an MVP type season.
Even Wainky’s better right now
That’s actually sad
Get him to the playoffs and he might just do what what the blue jays payed him to do.
Kin
I LOVE SPRINGER. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I guess it is the rise and fall and rise.LOL.
Honestly at this point idc were cooked. They should go get Bauer at least he said he’ll sign for the league minimum so he’ll be cheap
Like Bichette, he needs a week off away from the game...
Throw the bag at Soto in the offseason and then trade Springer. If the Vernon Wells contract can be traded so can his. Sign Tyler O’Neill let KK walk/retire. Outfield next year
Varsho
O’Neill
Soto
Atkins is no Alex Anthopoulos
Fantasy Island
Easy fix: live game feed and a trashcan 🗑
The dinger is just not dinging
Come on it is the entire team that was a bad game yesterday. Time to blame John Schneider and the coaching staff. The players have given up.
GS is hitting under .200. C’mon yourself
He needs to go, we can't keep rolling him out every day
I love how everyone is so shocked. If you have bad management and bad coaching, your players are going to suck. Why is this such a difficult concept to grasp?
Everybody agrees GS is a bust. I suggest trade Bo with the condition the other team takes Springer as well, Jays will pay some potion of his remaining salary. Maybe 1/3

Welp this didn’t age well 😅

It's called age. He's past his prime
if you are going to phraise it like that, you must state his Defence and his offience not just his offence,that is wrong.
It was gonna happen, especially with his injury history, but with the bad management and coaching it certainly doesn’t help at all.
As a Yankee fan, (not the annoying fan thank you very much!) I appreciate you mentioning the… assistance he got in 2017, no we haven’t forgotten.
he's my favorite player
Good Video!! I like these style of video’s
Thank you, appreciate the support 👍
Maybe we could trade him for prospects? And cover some of his salary for his new team?
Would love that, but I doubt anyone would want him at this point
He has actually been doing good lately.
They keep him around because of those cringe TD bank commercials.

George is not the only one who is under performing.Maybe you go play for him. Too much negativity.
maybe we should set up a tv in the dugout with a trash can next to it
Tragic rise and fall?
Are you crazy?
He’s on the downward slide of his career
You get older
You get less productive
Idk about that cause in baseball u can be 40 and still put up numbers look at JD Martinez
homers is terrible...
When in Houston they were cheating, when he comes to a team who didn't cheat his talent or lack of is exposed
Maybe they should have a pickup game today , an off day, play their mothers. They look like little league that's what they do.
Looks like he's just showing up for a paycheck
I hope he gets released he dosent derseve to even be in aaa
old and washed and a cheater
Has a bad history of cheating with performance enhancement drugs. I wouldn't be surprised one bit if the whole team is being tested right now and getting back bad results, hence the bad performance of the club this season.
The season is not even half over lol😂 hoping Springer goes on a tear and reaches 100 RBI.. also the Blue Jays can still easily win their division.
Trolling
@@capgucci9378 I still believe.
Rogers : Grow some balls and just be cool with Springer being DFA’d. He has no business being on the roster.
They could go even further and release him.
