ST GDT March 23rd. Jays vs Twins 1pm

[Laika]

Kikuchi looked like an ace for a month or two last season as well. Then he fell apart.

 

Hopefully he stays locked in this time.

 

he was pretty good in May, yeah

[Terminator]

I think Pearson just cemented his roster spot. You can't put a guy throwing like this in AAA.

 

Yeah and we might as well get innings out of him while he's healthy too.

[Krylian]

Damn. 9Ks in 5 innings. Tight tight tight!

 

[Eat My Shatkins]

he was pretty good in May, yeah

 

Yeah thats the month I was thinking of.

 

I remember being hopeful the Jays had unearthed and fixed another Robbie Ray.

Yeah when Nate is healthy he should be on the big league club at this point. No sense wasting whatever bullets he has on minor league batters.

The "when Nate is healthy he should be with the big club" has been pretty much true for the past 3 seasons, he's just never been healthy enough for it to happen.

I think there's something to the pitch clock getting him out of his head, less thinking the better.

[WryNGinger]

I like the early part of this story

 

Last year was the trailer, this is the movie.

[Spanky99]

I feel like there's a decent chance Berrios hits the DL at some point with "arm fatigue"

 

How come, that dude is the poster boy for innings pitched?

He means that if Berrios continues to suck, he might suddenly come down with case of “arm fatigue” that requires a stint on the IL

Yup, Pete, Jano and Yusei himself said it's helped him.

Berrios doesn't suck, though. Last season was a concern, but c'mon.

[Deadpool]

He doesn't suck, obviously, but there has been a concerning trend.

[John_Havok]

He doesn't suck, obviously, but there has been a concerning trend.

 

Maybe they’ll try the new buzzword now going around when talking about pitchers and being shut down - elbow maintenance.

"Elbow maintenance" is clearly slang for jackin' it.
