GDT (3/3) | Blue Jays (9-11) @ Rays (11-10) | Ryu vs Patino | April 25 — 1:10 PM

[Jays24]

I will not miss when Kiermaier retires. Dude is one of the best defensive CFers I've seen.

[Deadpool]

Thought Semien had that one

 

I think that's probably gone without the deadened ball.

[Jaysareus]

Tellez finally had his bat going so buntoyo benches him

[Olerud363]

I think that's probably gone without the deadened ball.

 

Same with Biggi'os Friday night

[Deadpool]

Joe Siddal said he expects to see Bo play some 2B this year. Really hope that does happen so we'll know Bo is putting his ego aside for the betterment of the team. He can still go back to SS but just happy the mainstream media is bringing this topic up.

 

Hazel contradicting Siddal.

[Slyfisher]

Tellez finally had his bat going so buntoyo benches him

 

Really frustrating how Biggio and Bo are prioritized over everyone else, especially Tellez

[Deadpool]

That's quite the gut on their 3B coach...

[Deadpool]

Dammit, 3B is cursed.

[BlueRocky]

3B is cursed

[Stangstag]

Third base is cursed

[Deadpool]

Oh come on... "smoked" or not, a ground ball right at a fielder that doesn't become an out needs to be an error in all but the most extreme cases...

[Slyfisher]

That was a hot shot but once again, great 3rd baseman makes that play.

[TrueNorth]

Defense is a big problem for this team

[Brownie19]

We all rip Cavan (probably rightfully so), but Panik's made 2 errors there this week and Espinal can't handle a hot shot today either. Who's holding the 3rd base vodoo doll?

[Brownie19]

That was a hot shot but once again, great 3rd baseman makes that play.

 

How many teams have great 3rd basemen?

[Jays24]

Really frustrating how Biggio and Bo are prioritized over everyone else, especially Tellez

 

Bo I can understand but Biggio is clearly far below him. Pretty sure Bo could have played 2B instead of DHing today but you know... ego

[Slyfisher]

How many teams have great 3rd basemen?

 

Not sure but we're definitely not one of them

[TrueNorth]

Certainly doesnt hurt when daddy has connections.

[Brownie19]

Bo wants to keep up with Tatis jr smh

 

man he has a 125 wRC+ Give it a rest.

[Orgfiller]

Really frustrating how Biggio and Bo are prioritized over everyone else, especially Tellez

 

It's frustrating how our talented young players are prioritized over the one dimensional 1B/DH? Am I reading this right?

[Stangstag]

Bo I can understand but Biggio is clearly far below him. Pretty sure Bo could have played 2B instead of DHing today but you know... ego

 

Bo has almost no experience playing 2nd or 3rd. Just moving him there without any practice likely results in the situation we had last year with Vlad at 1B

[Jays24]

It's frustrating how our talented young players are prioritized over the one dimensional 1B/DH? Am I reading this right?

 

Bo makes sense but Biggio is not a special player and deserves 0 special treatment. Curious how he'd be treated if his last name wasn't Biggio...

[TrueNorth]

Not many but same goes for multiple errors in a game

[Brownie19]

It's a shame that Tellez is not in there. Using Panik and Espinal in the same game doesn't seem smart. Although our offense has been trash all year anyways.

 

You never stop about the s***** defense. Today they go with probably the best defensive lineup they can - and you still complain.

[Deadpool]

It's frustrating how our talented young players are prioritized over the one dimensional 1B/DH? Am I reading this right?

 

Our one dimensional 1B/DH who is currently rocking a wRC+ of 39... (Biggio's isn't great, but it's still 45 points higher)

[Jays24]

Bo has almost no experience playing 2nd or 3rd. Just moving him there without any practice likely results in the situation we had last year with Vlad at 1B

 

I don't want him at 3B. If you can play SS then you can for sure play 2B. It's like saying a CF cant play LF or RF...

[Stangstag]

Bo makes sense but Biggio is not a special player and deserves 0 special treatment. Curious how he'd be treated if his last name wasn't Biggio...

 

He’d be treated like a 26 year old second baseman that put up 4 WAR in his first 160 games.

[Deadpool]

Bo makes sense but Biggio is not a special player and deserves 0 special treatment. Curious how he'd be treated if his last name wasn't Biggio...

 

He's historically better, and currently better than Tellez. There's no real argument to be made that Tellez deserves more playing time than Biggio

[Slyfisher]

It's frustrating how our talented young players are prioritized over the one dimensional 1B/DH? Am I reading this right?

 

Tellez isn't a young talented player?

[Stangstag]

I don't want him at 3B. If you can play SS then you can for sure play 2B. It's like saying a CF cant play LF or RF...

 

Its really not the same but ok
