Blue Jays @ Senators (Game 2 of 4)

[saskjayfan]

Damn, Tellez drilled that. 111.4 mph.

 

Rowdy only has 2Ks in 17 PA with 2 walks. I know that's not a sample size, but it's a good start. If he kept that up with his exit velocity he'd have a fantastic season.

[Orgfiller]

Sure good for us, but it seems like you're ignoring that he played for 3 teams last year and put up a 4.72 FIP for the year combined. He was not so good, or hot garbage prior to joining us.

 

Oliver Drake played for 5 teams in one season before landing in Tampa and figuring it out and becoming a valuable reliever for them. That's just how relievers are, one day they can just click and another they can fall apart. Wilmer Font was very good for us, and maybe he unlocked something which allowed him to be good going forward. Or maybe not. Relievers!

[saskjayfan]

well considering i literally said good for us, yeah I would ignore the teams that aren't 'us'

 

now we're arguing like Justin Termine and Eddie Johnson, but I said I wouldn't tie the words great and Font together. He was good for us last year and he's off to a great start with us this year...one down! There's certainly nothing wrong with his stuff.

It's embarrassing that the reigning World Series champions are trotting out Emilio Bonifacio.

[Jonn]

Thank you Washington for putting Bonifacio in the lineup. Who wasn’t a good major leaguer in 2013 and somehow is playing in 2020.

[Spanky99]

Emilio Bonifacio is their LF. You tell us.

 

Gold, Boxcar.... Gold!!!

Was thinking same. Must admit I didn't know he was even still in MLB. Triggers my Marlins trade syndrome.

Locals farmers?

[Jonn]

Something extremely difficult to do. Throwing 5 pitches to Teoscar Hernandez and have him swing at none of them.

He hadn't played in the big leagues since 2017, and that was after consecutive years of significantly below replacement level production. It's puzzling that they literally could not find a single guy better in free agency (cough Puig cough), waivers or their minor league system.

[Spanky99]

Spanky’s championship run continues

And gave two years to Starlin Castro. In my mind Rizzo surpasses Dayton Moore by 1000 times as the worst GM to win a World Series.

[BigCecil]

 

One of the best movies ever....JJ

[LGBJ29]

not a great effort from one of the best defensive third basemen in all of baseball

[M.E.]

Having to watch Nats broadcast on DTV. Their announcers are tough. All about last year. Guys it is over. New year. Move on.....

to be fair if the jays just won the world series and we didn't have any professional sports in 4 months I would be fine with hearing all about the championship run all over again

[saskjayfan]

Soto finally got 2 negative tests in a row....wonder if he'll be in tomorrow.

[JFD]

Cole is not the quickest working pitcher eh

[saskjayfan]

The sox are awful

[Spanky99]

One of the best movies ever....JJ

 

Yup, I still watch it from time to time with my pops!

[Jonn]

AJ Cole takes 6 minutes to throw a pitch.

 

But Victory!

[saskjayfan]

man....to think if Giles didn't get hurt we'd be 4 and 1.

 

Bring on Mad Max!

[BigCecil]

nice win Jays. Excited for tomorrows game.

[EdwinsParrot]

W

 

another solid one from the boys

[Jonn]

man....to think if Giles didn't get hurt we'd be 4 and 1.

 

Bring on Mad Max!

 

If Buntoyo wasn’t a moron we are probably 4-1

[BlueRocky]

We saw fence balls and I like fence balls. Great game. CY Roark dominated.

 

Pearson vs Scherzer tomorrow

[glory]

We have played really well this year. Giles' arm not blowing up (and Montoyo not being an idiot) puts us at 4-1. But s*** happens. Keep this momentum going.

[Spanky99]

GO JAYS GO!!! cf

[DigitalRock]

Young team looking good so far, could easily be 4-1 is not for the tampa collapse.
