GDT - Jays vs Yankees Game 3- April 4th @ 1PM ET

[G-Snarls]

Merryweather is filthy

 

They can't hit that high neat none of them

[Angrioter]

King Julian 100 mph heat

[The Cats Ass]

What’s the chance we see Merryweather return to starting? Or is he in the BP for good.

[Davie]

2 out of 3 against the Yankees at the Bronx to open up the season.

 

good s*** Blue Jays

[Spanky99]

Jays are good.

[Jonn]

He got a starters arsenal but you don’t move him from the bullpen. With his injury history and him not being as young as most people think he is. You don’t touch him. Let him dominate in the pen.

[EdwinsParrot]

very nice series win

I could see him moved to an opener role, and maybe see if he can work more than one inning in that capacity. He's been a starter his whole career.

[BigCecil]

All the sweeter given an amazing shut down relief appearance by King got wasted, aside from saving their pen.

[thatoneguy]

Merryweather just rolling in the sty with the pigs with that level of filth, jesus.

[Stangstag]

Grichuk providing some key hits in both wins. Look he’s not amazing, but its very important to have a guy like him on the roster. Veteran able to step right in to any spot in the OF when an injury occurs. I’m glad we didn’t trade away one of our outfielders, feels like we have more flexibility now

[Spanky99]

I'm still trying to grasp how damn good Romano and Merryweather are, at league min to boot.

I would tike to see them keep Davis when Springer is back so they can have one of the outfielders dhing. Not committed to Telez as a full time hitter

They will.

Yeah he looks like 2019 Rowdy. 2020 is looking like an aberration.

[Ex Player]

If the "deadly duo" (Romano/Merryweather) keeps pitching like this we could be looking at 7 inning games from here on out

[G-Snarls]

Spring training I kept optimistically thinking the bullpen was shaping up pretty well

 

It's def not a weak spot

 

Only the starting rotation is with the current injuries

Poor guy will have to retire by the time he becomes a free agent lol

[G-Snarls]

Sucks being a 29 year old rookie

[glory]

Merryweather has everything needed to be a starter, but he's 29, injury prone, and has not pitched much since 2017. If he was 24, then I think it's a no brainer you put him in the rotation, but current situation seems more logical for him to be a closer, especially if he's potentially this good.

[Krylian]

I would love to see him as a starter, but honestly, how do you move him when he's just that f***ing dominant.

 

He's looked incredible, but I'm not going to get comfortable. Dude has been made of glass. I'm going to enjoy every second that he's healthy but I won't allow my heart to be broken by him.

[Olerud363]

Yeah he looks like 2019 Rowdy. 2020 is looking like an aberration.

 

He was 0 for his first 2 games last year too, and looked horrible through 10 games,

 

really need 100 at bats to determine anything, if he 'learned' anything last year I doubt he forgot it, I do concede last year could of just been a random good 3 or 4 week stretch.
