GDT: 1/4 Toronto Blue Jays @ Boston Red Sux (7:10pm et)

[LGBJ29]

Belt had the one yankee game and then just returned to being ass cheeks

[Krylian]

We shouldn’t be subjected to Belt and Biggio in the same lineup

 

But it's early.

[glory]

Lineup balance when the lefties suck isn’t all that.

[John_Havok]

Jays need to realize the ump doesn’t call the bottom,of the zone. If it’s low, let it go

[gruber92]

I don't think it's premature to say, but putting Belt on a phantom IL stint and seeing what we got in Horowitz for a few weeks is looking good from here.

[RobinThicc]

Its officially joever for biggio

[Jonn]

Will John pinch hit here. Ofcourse not.

[Jonn]

I mean this would be the spot to use Espinal.

[tossingthiscoin]

just DFA Biggio. He's not a major league player.

[Jimcanuck]

Yes it is, the chances that Horwitz is better than Belt going forward is quite low.

[Jonn]

I really dislike this manager

[Solaxys]

Okay, if Biggio can't hit breaking balls over the heart of the plate, we actually have a problem.

[jaysguy44]

Biggio is absolute trash

They already know what Horowitz is.

 

He won’t strike out much, but he also won’t hit for power. Singles and walks while not having a defensive home other than 1b and DH. It’s not a great profile

[Jonn]

[G-Snarls]

We shouldn’t be subjected to Belt and Biggio in the same lineup

 

Even against righties

 

It just doesn't seem to matter

[Floortom]

Belt’s at bats are relatively competitive. He generally swings at the right pitches, has a decent approach. He just can’t get anything done.

 

Biggio’s plate appearances are painful to watch though. I don’t know how we can keep trotting him out there

[Solaxys]

Rip. I guess Duran is legit this year.

[Jonn]

That ball was f***ing massacred.

That's what I am saying Belt's at-bats are not bad, he just looks like he's swinging a sledge hammer.

[John_Havok]

Wasn’t even a bad pitch, just a good knock

[Floortom]

That wasn’t a bad pitch or anything. Duran just destroyed the ball

[bones10]

Ugh

Agree with this. You can see Belt is patient, swings when he should, not when he shouldn’t…he just has some mechanical issues that is screwing him up big time. That weird hitch in his swing is causing him to be late on virtually everything

 

Biggio is just passive, like he’s guessing at whether the pitch will be a strike or not and just decides ahead of time is he wants to swing, he waits so long to commit to a swing and by that time any fastball is past him and breakers fool him

[RobinThicc]

Thanls for waiting to take berrios out

[tossingthiscoin]

Berrios you f***in useless.

[THANOS]

Meatball after meatball...

[jaysguy44]

Of course

[Kordesi]

Oh my

[Jonn]

Probably should have went to your lefty for all the leftys
