GDT Game 4/4 Yanks @ Jays 1:07 PM EST

[Ex Player]

That DP Vladdie hit into was from a 99.6 mph fastball

[Jonn]

Ok now Bo is showing a decent at-bat now

[Ex Player]

Another great AB from Bo so far

[BigCecil]

LOVE watching these kids battle Chapman.

[jaysguy44]

Wow Bo

[Jonn]

Make that a great at-bat!

[EdwinsParrot]

Back to back fantastic abs. Love it.

[P2F]

Bo's two-strike approach is outstanding.

[Jonn]

Bo smokes a 3-2 breaking ball with a guy who throws 100. Impressive stuff.

[bones10]

Why do I feel like Chapman is always shaky

[Jonn]

Would like to see Bo be aggressive here

[Jonn]

Why do I feel like Chapman is always shaky

 

Probably because you watched him implode in the playoffs

[DigitalRock]

Chapman tired.

[DigitalRock]

Nasty pitch.

[Ex Player]

Damn, great pitch to get Biggio though.

 

Kids can keep their heads high, great battles today. I'm glad I got to witness all that

[Jaysareus]

Had buntoyo no benched vladdy they would have had a better chance today

[Brownie19]

LOVE watching these kids battle Chapman.

 

That was an incredible inning to watch. Love these Jays.

Not sure how you get more clueless than this.

[Jonn]

Biggio has been slumping pretty bad. I wonder if would help him to hit lower in the lineup for awhile. Bo hitting first and Vlad hitting second seems ideal for me moving forward anyway.

There's still way to many Jays fans that care about wins at this point in the season.

 

If anything make an argument involving player development, as to why he should be playing.

[Ex Player]

Taking 2 out of 4 against the Yanks, and 2 of those losses were 1-run games, is excellent for this young ballclub

Or just STFU because you have no idea what the best course of action for a 20 year old is (physically or mentally). Leave it to the experts and stop blaming people with 1000 times more information than you. Again - this is the type of s*** that's wrong with the world.

[wamco]

You mean Rajai Davis and yes he would be technically the guy. Although I really saw him more as platoon player over an everyday guy. He basically did play everyday at times out of pure necessity.

 

In terms of true everyday players you would have to go all the way back to a young Alex Rios. Or back even further to Shannon Stewart. Stolen Bases is not a big part of our history.

 

Rickey Henderson

[Ex Player]

Rickey Henderson

Only when he was getting on base, which was rarely

[P2F]

.356 OBP and 22 SB in 44 games with the Jays. That's pretty good!

Not by his standards. He also sucked post-season IIRC

[wamco]

It was kind of tongue in cheek . But ya, 80 sb pace ain’t bad
