Here is a comprehensive list of the best tweets from the Jays series vs the Oakland Athletics:
On signs that take us back to October, 2016:
Why? What happened? #Bluejays pic.twitter.com/gfutbpdUEx
— Derek Steele (@dsteele76) July 26, 2017
On Grandma’s excellent point:
#Grandmalytics: July 27
— Keegan Matheson (@KeeganMatheson) July 28, 2017
"They keep waiting until that last inning to win. If they did better at the start they wouldn't have to, you know."
On the continued misadventures in left field:
If Steve Pearce misplays a ball and nobody's watching to tweet about it, did it make a sound?
— Andrew Stoeten (@AndrewStoeten) July 24, 2017
Steve Pearce deserves whatever the opposite of a gold glove is. Seriously. #BlueJays
— Scott Mitchell (@ScottyMitchTSN) July 24, 2017
On newfound optimism:
*extremely 2015 voice*
— Mike (@gosensgo101) July 27, 2017
The Blue Jays may never lose again.
On dad-joke worthy red star catches:
I knew Ryan was Goins to catch that.
— @BlueJaysDad (@BlueJaysDad) July 25, 2017
On valid questions that need to be answered:
#BlueJays What's up with Chris Coghlan? Did he join Cirque Du Soleil to become a tumbler.
— Pam Swan (@pam_swan) July 25, 2017
On dangerous ideas:
"Good lookin' player" is now my go to drinking game ⚾️ #BlueJays
— Jay Donovan (@jaypdonovan) July 26, 2017
On small victories:
: Coming up on @TSN1260 in Edmonton at 9:05et to talk #BlueJays, trade deadline, and their one-game winning streak.
— Keegan Matheson (@KeeganMatheson) July 25, 2017
On Darvish’s unjustifiable lack of appreciation for Toronto:
Why Yu gotta be so rude.
— x-Aaron (@OilersJunkie) July 26, 2017
On redemption:
The bullpen was simply sublime tonight; 4 innings, zero hits. Matt Dermody alone lowered his ERA from 135.00 to 67.50. #BlueJays
— Ari Shapiro (@ari_shapiro) July 27, 2017
On Kendrys Morales’ love for double plays:
Nothing good ever comes from a Morales ground ball. #BlueJays
— Baseball Ninja (@BaseballNinja19) July 26, 2017
If I had a dollar for everytime Morales grounded into a double play this season, I'd have $18. #bluejays
— VanCity Sportsnut (@realmrsaxobeat) July 26, 2017
On the truth (which hurts):
If a team wants to salvage their season, they need to get to the 23-year-old who doesn't strike people out. It's... an old baseball saying.
— Keegan Matheson (@KeeganMatheson) July 27, 2017
On settling the continued Morales/Encarnacion debate:
If Kendrys Morales wins game here in 10th after two earlier HR he may become Kndrys Morals because the #bluejays don't need those EE's
— Richard Griffin (@RGriffinStar) July 27, 2017
On setting the record straight:
*gets ejected, loses cool. #getitright https://t.co/DKIbhaMLy5
— Marcus Stroman (@MStrooo6) July 27, 2017
On our concerns for our pinstriped friends:
Dear Yankees,
— Daryl (@ateDARYL) July 25, 2017
Do you really want a pitcher that gave up a double to Ryan Goins? pic.twitter.com/BSXCCV3c42
On Kevin Pillar’s questionable decision making:
Pillar has reverted to Bruno Mars' "That's What I Like" as his walk up song. I have come to hate the thought of strawberry champagne on ice.
— Laura Armstrong (@lauraarmy) July 25, 2017
On adapting:
#Walkoff after #Walkoff ⚾️
— Ben Howard (@johnnybad1986) July 27, 2017
@BlueJays @Bluejaysmemes pic.twitter.com/7Anxkhvgp2
On Sonny Gray’s fielding skills:
Sonny Gray will not be acquired as a shortstop, according to eyeballs.
— Keegan Matheson (@KeeganMatheson) July 25, 2017
Maybe this is Sonny Gray's equivalent of stealing all the staplers at the office out of spite on the last day of your job.
— ℳatt (@matttomic) July 25, 2017
On the sympathy we all have for A’s fans:
Oakland A's fans #BlueJays #oaklandathletics #MLB #TimandSid pic.twitter.com/nG0Zx9FPHq
— Bill Couchie (@BillCouchie) July 27, 2017
On important details:
Russell Martin on ejection: “I turned around and I’m like ‘You didn’t have to throw him out.' Probably threw an F-bomb. Just one.” #BlueJays
— Scott Mitchell (@ScottyMitchTSN) July 27, 2017
On things that we’ve tried that don’t seem to work:
Apparently, screaming on Twitter isn't run producing.
— Joanna (@HumandChuck) July 27, 2017
On things we should try that might work:
Can Tim Leiper stand on 1st base so Goins thinks the bases are loaded? #BlueJays
— Baseball Ninja (@BaseballNinja19) July 25, 2017
On the hidden wonder that is Cesar Valdez:
Cesar Valdez leaves to standing ovation after leadoff double T7. (That's a sentence I didn't expect to type this year) #BlueJays lead 4-1.
— Shi Davidi (@ShiDavidi) July 26, 2017
Cesar Valdez -- owner of a 6.86 career ERA and 2015 ace of the Mexican League's Olmecas de Tabasco -- has come to save the #BlueJays.
— Keegan Matheson (@KeeganMatheson) July 26, 2017
When you become a trending topic in Canada. #HailCesarhttps://t.co/1JpZbuUiTb pic.twitter.com/3FaXLGRrNU
— Blue Jays (@BlueJays) July 26, 2017
Everything about this situation that is most definitely a sign of the end times:
Ryan Goins ranks 4th on #BlueJays with 35 RBI this season. He is batting .320 with RISP and has an MLB-high 9 hits with the bases loaded. pic.twitter.com/gRY707MSgZ
— Sportsnet Stats (@SNstats) July 26, 2017
On the sales strategies of the Jays’ front office:
If Rogers owned the Titanic: "it's still a lovely HALF a ship. bonus; you don't have to walk far if you need ice for your room" #BlueJays
— Chef Tracey-Lynne (@ChefWearsSkirts) July 27, 2017
Brewers are interested in Joe Smith. I saw we trade them one of the other 68 Smiths in the organization and see if they notice. #BlueJays
— Andy (@_rallycap) July 25, 2017
On who to assign blame to for Tulowitzki’s base running in game 4:
If Tulo is hobbled, that's on Rivera. If Tulo just normally runs like a middle-aged football armchair critic, that's on Tulo.
— Ari Shapiro (@ari_shapiro) July 27, 2017
On the underlying motives for Morales’ three home runs in five at bats
Kendrys Morales just wants to be loved.
— Tao of Stieb (@TaoofStieb) July 27, 2017
On Gibbon’s 44th career ejection as a Blue Jays Manger
It had been a while since Gibby had been tossed. #BlueJays
— Baseball Ninja (@BaseballNinja19) July 27, 2017
Gone Gibbons. (It's like Gone Girl, but John Gibbons has been ejected and it's nothing like the book or film adaptation). #BlueJays
— Keegan Matheson (@KeeganMatheson) July 27, 2017
On ripple effects:
Asked the bar staff why my beer cost 15 bucks. Got ejected. #BlueJays
— DeeTee (@DeeTeeUK) July 28, 2017
On things that probably happened, but we didn’t get to see them:
Will Little as soon as this game is over...#BlueJays pic.twitter.com/ro1RbStrpB
— (@SpiderDarrell) July 27, 2017
On Steve Pearce, MVP, in Game 4:
It's too bad Steve Pearce ruined what was otherwise a great umpire show.
— rob (@ElieBourbonGuy) July 27, 2017
Steve Pearce just called. He wants you to know that his name is Steve Pearce. Don't you forget it.
— Ari Shapiro (@ari_shapiro) July 27, 2017
When looking at the Blue Jays' run differential at the end of the season, we shall not forget Steve Pearce's walk-off grand slam.
— Israel Fehr (@israelfehr) July 27, 2017
BONUS:
On being upstaged by Aaron Judge:
ESPN....we get it, you like Aaron Judge pic.twitter.com/kzgmRgB8Fd
— Starting 9 (@Starting9) July 24, 2017
ESPN:"Jose Altuve is hitting .500 in the month of July."
— Astros Rants (@AstrosRants) July 25, 2017
"Hold on, Aaron Judge just hit a HR in batting practice. Let's cut to that."
Osuna’s mad skills:
Roberto Osuna's slider ... *drools* pic.twitter.com/P5LEV9QA1P
