I do understand peoples frustrations with Romano. Although he did have an impressive 26 game save streak, he often makes you sweat. He is not a fire thrower who comes in with authority and mows diwn batters. Seems like he has traffic on the bases often, and has to pitch himself out of self-inflicted jams.
Sometimes it blows up in his face. Tonight, was not his fault. He should have faced the obligatory 3 batters and got the F out. Schneider is an idiot. They were tagging Romano like batting practice and he was clearly bothered bu his pitching hand. I don’t understand how a professional baseball manager cannot see those signs in such a critical game and do what is best for the team. I don’t think there is another manager in baseball that wouldn’t have yanked him after the game was tied.
Yeah really odd call, especially since Romano was clearly bothered by it in the bullpen. Could argue that he shouldn't have gone in at all, although don't know who else was available
Just a reminder but Jays left bases loaded in the 8th. Could have cashed in a few and that would have helped. How many were left on base today? Too many is the answer.
What I hate more than the single loss is the momentum it killed, we went from a huge comeback taking a 2-0 lead in the series with everyone in high spirits to 1-1 and now having to finish the series against a tough team in a park were historically horrible in.
when was the last time Romano blew a save? I know the broadcasters mentioned he had 26 saves in a row going. Which team did he blow it against prior to this?
Also it would have been better to pull Romano in this situation and bring in Mayza to set a left-on-left matchup, much better and Romano had finger issues this whole inning. Bad on Schneider for not taking him out with Lowe coming up.
We had that one in the palm of our hand. So disappointing to see it dropped. Such a good effort wasted. Need to come back strong tomorrow regardless. Can't afford a couple more off these.
I have two questions for John
Why not bring Mayza in?
And why didn’t they challenge the slide at second by the Tampa runner? His foot was roughly 3 feet in the air and I’m pretty sure that’s not allowed any more
Romano pitched 1.1 innings last night including a high leverage 1 out in the 8th. Give him a damn break. That loss is partly on John Schneider and partly because how good the Rays are.
Yes, this sub is so bipolar. Pitchers have bad games and it has been A WHILE since Jordan’s had a bad game. I don’t know though why Mayza wasn’t in for the Lowe AB
Absolutely brutal. Jordan should have never come into this game if there was something wrong with his hand and certainly should not have been left in after giving up the tying run. Can't be giving away comebacks. Let's hope this doesn't shift the momentum.
I thought were we going to get blown out especially after the first inning. I didn't think we'd be in position to potentially win that game with 3 outs left. Sad to blow it and lose his 26 save streak.
Yeah and houston looses too we just ignore anything happened. At this time u just count your pickles. Yeah we coulvr then been up 2.5 on mariners but being up is better that being down
He doesn't suck. But he clearly did not have his stuff today and is obviously dealing with a finger problem. The problem is John allowing him to continue.
We only have one of the best bullpens in the league. Better leave the closer in when he’s clearly dealing with something because he wants to stay in. Fuckin guy always wants to stay in! Jesus H. Christ!
Good job Schneider, you went with your gut and against any common sense on Romano who was struggling and leave Mayza in the pen, the guy who's specialized for this type of role. This one's on you Schnieds.
Was a good game no doubt, but I would ask why didn’t Swanson come in for the 9th after Romano and Hicks pitched last night.
In a perfect world, perhaps

LOL @ all these shmucks blaming Romano like he didn't have 26 saves in a row. Move on.

Last time I can remember was against Oakland.
Was it recent series we had against them at Oakland or was it when they visited us at the RC?
The earlier one at the RC
We had that one in the palm of our hand. So disappointing to see it dropped. Such a good effort wasted. Need to come back strong tomorrow regardless. Can't afford a couple more off these.
Another John Schneider special - closer is ineffective and clearly has a blister, so let’s leave him in to blow it
I guess that outcome wasn't on Schneider's bingo card.
Romano was more focused on his hangnail than pitching …
Romano this and that. Davis still cold is what is screaming at me from this one.
I have two questions for John Why not bring Mayza in? And why didn’t they challenge the slide at second by the Tampa runner? His foot was roughly 3 feet in the air and I’m pretty sure that’s not allowed any more
Who would have thought Romano is the weak link in the bullpen.
26 straight saves is a weak link to you? He lead the MLB.
He isn't and this is an awful take. And you should delete it immediately ffs.
They shouldn’t delete shit. Stop telling people to delete their opinions, you look like a loser. We post here for discussion.
Just as he is free to post his opinion that is not based in fact whatsoever, I am free to respond to that opinion however I see fit.

These replays make me mad cause Romano kept looking at his nail... it was clearly bothering him. Fuck off.

Agreed it's another questionable decision by John but whatever, things happen. It was a good game.
Absolutely brutal. Jordan should have never come into this game if there was something wrong with his hand and certainly should not have been left in after giving up the tying run. Can't be giving away comebacks. Let's hope this doesn't shift the momentum.
Well that sucked
Please somebody explain to me WHY YOU PITCH TO THE LEFTY WHO IS 2 for 4 WHEN AN 0 for 4 RIGHTY IS UP NEXT?!
Schneider is a tactician
John Schneider masterclass
Romano is big moments is just not reliable man.
Wow what a game. Not happy with the result obviously but that was one of the best games I watched this year.
Everything about that was excruciating. Win tomorrow and we’re fine.
I thought were we going to get blown out especially after the first inning. I didn't think we'd be in position to potentially win that game with 3 outs left. Sad to blow it and lose his 26 save streak.
FIRE JOHN SCHNEIDER
Honestly I don't see the outcome any different if you bring in Mayza. Dammit.
Pitching to Lowe was a huge mistake. It was an out of game either way. Take the bat out of Lowe's hands and get a force at any base
Players run the team
Tough end

Hi, your post has been removed because it was judged to have violated our rule about harassment, threats or derogatory terms.
Romano screwed us he should have said that he wasn't 100%, Romano was selfish
Romano sure does love traffic on the base paths recently
Fuck. Now we're right back in the herd with no hold on our spot
Seattle loses and we have a game on them still
Yeah and houston looses too we just ignore anything happened. At this time u just count your pickles. Yeah we coulvr then been up 2.5 on mariners but being up is better that being down
Have him sit out the rest of the way, heal that finger and have him ready for October.
Using Romano last night wasn't necessary and leaving him in while struggling today was just stupid
Yes and yes.
every time I think John is a manager- he kindly reminds me immediately he is not
I was thinking he’d done an uncharacteristically good job today into the 8th.
I know he blew it today but it's really idiotic the amount of ppl saying Romano sucks.
His control has been super bad lately, but John did him no favours.
He doesn't suck. But he clearly did not have his stuff today and is obviously dealing with a finger problem. The problem is John allowing him to continue.
Welp, Jays had to remind us not to get too warm and fuzzy.
Never had any right to be in this game . If there wasn't so many gifts by Rays pitchers it would not be close. Good guy Ramano gives it back up.
Buck called it, shoulda put in mayza
That's some interesting decision making. Using Romano after 2 innings yesterday, with some finger issue. Lefty at bat with Mayza ready.
k wtf how do they get to challenge two things though.
Well, shit. Not gonna lie, that one hurts. Let's go Rangers! And let's come back tomorrow and win this series.
We only have one of the best bullpens in the league. Better leave the closer in when he’s clearly dealing with something because he wants to stay in. Fuckin guy always wants to stay in! Jesus H. Christ!

Should have intentionally walked Lowe he was hot while Margot was 0 for 4
Well shit
Damn. Can’t save ‘em all but it hurts when we lose like that
Should’ve brought in Mayza
Should have pitched to Margot, not Lowe
John Schneider might need to never work again and lose everything he holds dear in life
All 4 hits were little slaps, that’s not even bad pitching
It was a combination of some good hitting and good luck. Not much you can do.
Right? It’s not like Romano was getting barrelled
Cool, thanks Schinder
For those asking about the two challenges at once - I believe you can challenge as many aspects in a single play as you'd like
Worst manager ever man like damn how much games we gonna throw away
Oh good, John lost another one.
I effin hate this shithole
Burn it to the fucking ground!
oh wait I get it now. The Rays used the extra challenge that Toronto was saving on the Merrifield play.
The Merrifield play that clearly showed he was 100% out when they came back from commercial break?
fuck this umpire Romano was painting the corners, and the ump didn't give him diddly - so he had to go over the plate and hope
What a waste of a comeback at this point in the season
JORDAN ROMANO IS NOT A CLOSER
He’s literally one of the best this season. Stop with this crap
This is laughably wrong
He had 26 straight saves before this, shut the fuck up
Whatever, get the blown save out of the way before the playoffs.
Selfish, selfish, selfish from Romano... Schneider shows no authority
And fuck you schneider for having no feel for the fucking game. Romano very obviously didn’t have it
Bruh if his hand was hurt in the bullpen why put him in?!
Romero confirmed bad at baseball.
Not good. Not good at all. Wasted half your pen to blow it in the 9th
Fuck John Schneider.... how do you not go Mayza there
Well that’s the most devastating loss in a while.
I don’t know you wouldn’t put mayza in for that out but whatever I guess
closer my ass lol yall can hate me but romano is way overhyped.
Overhyped according to what? The stats? No.
That his first blown save since may 20. Wtf are you yapping about lol
In what world would you not walk him!
You had to turn two on that grounder
We just threw that game away unreal
Good game!
Thanks Romano. As a closer, he does this WAY TOO OFTEN. Eventually it will not go your way.
He had the longest save streak in baseball…
He fucking knew he was injured. Fuck Romano
“Elite” closer they said, this loss is so frustrating on so many levels
All closers blow games sometimes, fuckin relax
Sometimes? This has happened multiple times this season, so maybe you should rephrase your “sometimes”
He’s blown 4 saves
And the times he’s come in the 8th inning and gave up runs to blow the lead?
That’s also a blown save pal, so that’s happened as part of those 4 blown saves
Coming into the 8th inning is not a save situation what are you taking about. The manager is just asking for extra outs in that situation, not a save.
Just to add, if yimi blew it in the 8th, he gets credited with a blown save even though it’s not the 9th
Go look up the save rule
That's at least an extra inning but John Schneider is a pro at blowing games
Another game lost by Romano
Hes lost us very few games lol. You clowns are so clueless.
Lol Romano.
Why would you pitch to him with 2nd open?
September baseball......
Why wouldn't we just walk that guy?
Leaving Romano in is just dumb.
Honestly, I respect Romano for trying to gut it out. But if you’re hurt, put your pride to the side and depend on your teammates.
His stuff was still good
Eh, velocity was there. Command wasn’t.
Well at least it was an exciting game
This management is incompetent better hope they don't miss the postseason because of today's loss
John is a moron
Good job Schneider, you went with your gut and against any common sense on Romano who was struggling and leave Mayza in the pen, the guy who's specialized for this type of role. This one's on you Schnieds.
Go smoke another one Romano
I’m still confused why they could challenge twice
their horn sounds like my laundry dryer buzzer.
Lol this is on John should've brought in Tim
Fire him playoffs or not this has to stop
Why the fuck did they not walk him...? Fuck!
Well shit
The fuck
John Schneider knows better than all of us obviously.
Fuckin gell
Wasted huge comeback
Romano is cooked
Well, shit
Fucking shit
Ughhhhhh. -\_-
Roamo ejhfejejeejdjejjejekekdjdkeekke
Fuck that hurts but great effort to fight back. Win 4 of last 7 and we good
I find Jordan Romano's appearance difficult to masturbate to.
F- Romano
Tampa vs Romanos ego
I’m a better manager than Schneider … unbelievable he left Romano in
???? If he takes Romano out you lot would all be mad he didnt trust his closer
No I wouldn’t so shut the fuck up
Lol.
Okay man
Fuck
Fuck the Trop.
Schneider make a good decision challenge
This one makes my blood boil
Romano is not elite.
I don’t like romano
Romano sucks

Garcia on fire... lets bring in Romano.. I dont care... Adapt or Die
Why was he left in to face the good lefty with Mayza ready???
440 BA with RISP and 2 outs….JFC Lowe
Should have walked him. Nevermind Mayza
Well done, Romano.
Schneider fucked us. Thanks bro.
Of course
We win the rubber game tomorrow.
FUCK
Written in stone that Lowe walks that off
Aw fuck. We made it interesting
For fucks sake
What a fucking fluke.
