Bo bomb to lead off the game

Jansen kind of killed Boshers in that AB, uncharacteristically so. Some borderline pitches which he didn't attempt to bring back up.

So now Bichette has another hat hanging moment by taking one of the best starting pitchers in history deep in his first AB against him, sprinkle in a few MLB records and you have several life long achievements in less than a month.

Although Jansen's defense has improved a lot since last year, McGuire is clearly the better defender.

Man, Kershaw is a real soft tosser now.

[Abomination]

Hernandez might have been able to beat Smoak to 1st himself.

[Daniel Labude]

Bo and Vlad had great ABs first go around against Kershaw

SRF against the Dodgers seems like a bad outcome waiting to happen.

At least it's a big park. He might be hard to square up well enough to leave this place at night.

The big park coming in handy early lol, I thought that was a bomb by Seager.

[Orgfiller]

Jansen makes up for his earlier framing botchjob with another outstanding defensive effort. What a stud he's become behind the plate.

Yeah, that's definitely gone in the AL East.

A lot of talking heads were acting like his glory days were over at the start of the year... Boy has he showed them.

I refer you to that play that Jansen just made.

[gruber92]

Lol

 

I take it you disagree? How about adding something as to why you think this is funny, instead of just posting lol.

Foley's velocity looks back to normal. Maybe he was throwing softer for control reasons previously?

[Orgfiller]

Fisherrrrrrr

[P2F]

Derek Fisher, ladies and gentlemen.

[Abomination]

404 feet here at night against another lefty, that's impressive.

I like Jansen's defense, but it appears (to me anyway) that McGuire is the better defender from what i've seen so far.

[Krylian]

Who was that asian dude in the Jays dugout with the nice hematoma?

Jansen has been one of the very best defensive catchers in baseball this year, elite by every metric. McGuire looks solid too, but to say he's clearly the better defender is not right at all.

 

Jansen has been outstanding with his throwing, blocking and especially framing. He's fantastic behind the plate.

I'm seeing 419 feet from baseball savant, but I know Statcast can at times be wonky with its distance measurements. Where are you getting 404 from?

[glory]

Fisher can draw walks, has legit power, and speed.. I can see why the Jays like him. The tools are there. Whether he can put it together is the question.

I truly believe this. Given that it didn't help at all, I'm glad to see him say f*** it and go back to sitting 93-94 where at least his mistakes might garner an extra swing and miss.
