416 feet feels wrong

 

It is. 400 feet would be easily if he hit the bottom of the net there. His first homer was 392 i think. He cleared the top of the net lmao

not only does Vlad Guerrero Jr. have 30 homers with a .335/.434/.677 slash line, he's younger than four players the Blue Jays drafted last week

This game should have been called after 8 innings. A 10-0 game and the pitcher is slipping on the mound due to rain just seems silly.

I like the Pat and Dan combo calling the game better...Pat says fewer stupid things with Dan.

 

Dan Schulman has the innate ability to raise the level of his broadcast partner. He's an amazing play by play guy in how he's able to incorporate well thought out opinions, relay stories, call the game at a top notch level, elevate the overall broadcast by carrying his partner as required, has a great voice and smooth delivery, and has a good sense of humor as well. I would be over the moon elated if the Jays could somehow convince him to do Jays games full time, but even having him call half the games at least avoids us having to listen to the doofus and dingus combination of Buck and Pat.

Dan being the full time play by play guy is my dream

Dan Schulman in the booth is like a classical orchestra while Buck and Pat together are like Dillinger Escape Plan. Now there's a time and place for Dillinger Escape Plan, just maybe not a baseball broadcast.

My ideal would be Dan & someone younger and more in tune with the target demo. I love Matt and Jack for the Raptors. I love the excitement and catchphrases. I want some of that in baseball. It would match the young superstars in the league.

Yeah, listening to Buck and Pat is like listening to a broadcast from 1974. Shulman is great, just need someone who is more in tune with the current game to go along side him. Buck and Pat ain't it.

Still enjoy Buck’s home run calls more than Shulman, but Shulman is better at everything else.

 

Who is your favorite HR call around the league?

 

Glen Kuiper from the A's for me and Len Kasper

Maybe a recently retired player with ties to the Jays. Ricky Romero? Hes been a vocal jays fan on twitter.

The Jays just released the lineup. I'm very surprised the game hasn't already been postponed.

 

 

I'm not going to make the game thread until very close to game time because I'm still fully expecting this one to get pushed off till tomorrow.
