GDT: Jays @ Cardinals 2:15 EST Rubber Match of the 3 Game Set

[DigitalRock]

Take him out it’s bp

[saskjayfan]

87-89 isn't going to work a lot of the time

 

Worked fine for Buerhle. You just have to be able to locate.

[Solaxys]

Tiedemann will probably come up at some point if Bassitt and Berrios are going to be extremely hittable

[JaysAllMighty]

Take him out it’s bp

 

looks like they have given up on this game... management being stupid

[Jonn]

This is not a good way to begin a 63 million dollar contract for the next 3 years.

[Daniel Labude]

Worked fine for Buerhle. You just have to be able to locate.

 

He sucked and isn't RHP

[jaysthebest]

Please don't pull Bassit. We cannot waste our bullpen for this game.

[el duque]

great catch still poor pitching

[DigitalRock]

Nice play. Bassist is getting lit the f*** up

[Jonn]

Cardinals know thats a free base. Would like to see the Jays do that way more.

[gruber92]

Schneider punted this game by sending Bassitt back out there. Pop should have started the inning.

[Omar]

Hard contact after hard contact.

[Stangstag]

Ok that was a nicer play from Varsho

[jaysthebest]

It's hard to say if Bassitt is actually better than Roark.

[Stangstag]

This is not a good way to begin a 63 million dollar contract for the next 3 years.

 

About as bad of a start as you could possibly have. Reminds me of Berrios’ first start last year

[BigCecil]

This is not a good way to begin a 63 million dollar contract for the next 3 years.

 

This is one game and I’m sure he will be better. He has a pretty solid track record, but I always liked a potential 1 year overpay for Strip on a QO over the 3 year Bassitt deal.

[bones10]

Lol didn’t someone call this in spring training his velocity is down whereas before it wouldn’t fall off until late in the season

[gruber92]

so who can we get in return?

 

A case of Sapporo.

[Deadpool]

Buck told me velocity didn't matter for pitchers, so why isn't the 89MPH fastball blowing these guys away?

 

Also, they're advertising Jesus behind home plate.

 

Seems like most people already know about Jesus...

[Spanky99]

He sucked and isn't RHP

 

Buehrle didn't suck, lol.

[EdwinsParrot]

Nightmare of a first game for bassitt

[Stangstag]

Lol didn’t someone call this in spring training his velocity is down whereas before it wouldn’t fall off until late in the season

 

Yeah but there is also data to suggest he normally dials it down in spring training. Maybe he has to work up to 93 idk. But he won’t be a successful pitcher if he’s only throwing 90

[Stangstag]

Buck told me velocity didn't matter for pitchers, so why isn't the 89MPH fastball blowing these guys away?

Lol yeah that comment by Buck was moronic

[Solaxys]

Jansen forgot the fundamentals too huh.

 

Our defense just taking a chill backseat.

[BigCecil]

Ok that was a nicer play from Varsho

Really nice. Anyone see a catch probability on that?

[Stangstag]

Nightmare of a first game for bassitt

 

Nightmare for the front office and fanbase too

[gruber92]

This is not a good way to begin a 63 million dollar contract for the next 3 years.

 

Please do not underestimate crafty Ross.

[DigitalRock]

American Christians are insane

[Jonn]

I think what Buck meant was even if you throw 100 MPH if it isn't located Major League hitters will crush it. Obviously having more velo is a benefit buts it not the end all be all. He just does a terrible job of explaining what hes saying lol.

[Stangstag]

Jansen forgot the fundamentals too huh.

 

Our defense just taking a chill backseat.

 

Now I feel like an idiot for trying to explain to my GF that jays probably have the best defense in the league with Bo being the only weak spot.

 

Defense has cost us big time in 2/3 games already.
