Blue Jays vs. Senators (Game 3 out of 4)

[Ex Player]

Heading out for the day, thats why I made this thread early.

Cant wait for this game, Nate's ML debut. Imagine if he blanks the Sens and beats Scherzer

 

[Jimcanuck]

Happy Nate Pearson Day y'all!

It's not ideal for the Jays, but it would be great for the league if Soto plays today.

Has there been any word as to whether Pearson will be on a pitch count or not? If so, what's the number said to be?

Shi just tweeted this, I haven't read it yet...

 

 

Nah, I know they said in Summer Camp that he has no restrictions.

“I try not to let that stuff bother me,” he said. “Obviously, bringing me up right after the service time date brings up a lot of speculation. But at the end of the day it’s a business move. I want the Blue Jays to be successful. They’re just doing what’s best for the organization and I can’t take that personally. They’re just doing what owners and GMs are supposed to do, just do the best for the team. And so I try not to let that affect me and I just control what I can control. I’m making my debut and I’m excited for it.”

 

Smart kid. Good PR statement.

Thanks. No mention of a pitch count for today, but the article gives the impression that they're going to ease him along, so I doubt they'll let him get too deep in this game.

 

I was thinking of betting the under, but I suspect the Jays bullpen will play a large roll in this one and that could potentially get dicey.

 

Might make a small wager on it anyways

Considering established veteran innings eater Tanner Roark was taken out after only 73 pitches while cruising yesterday, I think Nate will be on a similar restriction. Doubt he throws more than 75-80 pitches.

Extend him 10 years and call it a day, great kid.

Davey said Soto is stil waiting to be cleared by DC dept of Health. Hoping for August 1. He HAS been cleared by MLB.

No Soto AND no Strasburg?? Love it

Strasburg was never going to pitch, he has numbness in his hand now for weeks. No Soto tomorrow is possible.

[BlueRocky]

what do you call a back to back sweep?

I was wondering why Kieboom was riding the pine while so many shitbags like Bonifacio were playing.

McGuire is also playing with groin issues.

His Criminal Defense lawyer game up with that.. Your honor, I am professional baseball player who was in the midst of Spring Training. I was only in the process of my daily prescribed ritual, by a professional sports trainer, of massaging my groin when the officer interrupted my therapy.

Alright guys.

 

Over/Under highest velo reading from Pearson tonight: 99.0 MPH

Over. I bet he hits 100.

It would really suck if the center field camera was such a wide and flat angle like that all season.

 

Hopefully that is something they consider during the rush to get the park ready.
