Dominguez coming unglued.

[Stangstag]

#9 hitter gets fastball, fastball, offspeed for the K...good thing the Jays never tried that lmao

 

That pitch was not a strike and you know it

[Masterbather]

Let's go Hobbit, do something!

[Omar]

You want to put the bat back in Vladdys hands?

[BlueJays]

Come on Varsho

[Jonn]

We talk about Moreno and his lack of power, but should we be concerned about Kirk's? Since July 1 of 2022, he has a .083 ISO in 394 plate appearances (not counting tonight). His best attribute is clearly drawing walks and making contact in general, but he's probably the slowest runner on earth, so if he's not hitting for power then that's not the most useful skill for him. Hopefully he starts hitting for at least modest power at some point. He did early in 2022 but then stopped mid season and has never recovered.

 

There’s a lot to be concerned about regarding Kirk. I really like Varsho but trading Moreno was so tough. Hopefully he gets it going but he’s drilling everything into the ground right now.

[Stangstag]

Runner on third less than 2 outs… lets see if we can get 1 here

You’re concerned with Kirk’s bat??? That’s the one part of his game nobody should be worried about

[tossingthiscoin]

So I guess Varsho would've been better...

[BlueJays]

Lmao

[Spanky99]

Oof...

[tossingthiscoin]

Another mistake by our manager.

[Daniel Labude]

Fastball fastball offspeed...Springer gone

[keggy]

Varsho can't hit lefty pitching. This was the right move.

[Stangstag]

Pushing all the wrong buttons tonight

[Jonn]

Didn’t workout but I respect the move by the manager.

[bronson44]

Im sorry but that was idiotic. I can see if Springer was hot or something

[BlueJays]

Nice work chappy

[Stangstag]

Strikeout with a runner on 3rd. No shock there.

 

Its like clockwork. Idk how we’ve been so bad at this

[BigCecil]

Runner on third less than 2 outs… lets see if we can get 1 here

 

Soto destroyed George. Late on 2 fastballs and then dropped the hammer. But we got one in on a solid AB by Chappy.

[Spanky99]

Nice Chappy

[Orgfiller]

Phils are honestly even lucky that hit Chapman, that would've missed so badly the runner from second might have scored.

[Jonn]

Varsho really doesn’t hit lefties well. His OPS falls off a cliff against them.

[connorp]

Jansen sucks.

[Jonn]

Yup.

[tossingthiscoin]

I don't blame the manager's decision to pinch hit Jansen for Belt...

[Orgfiller]

Schneider has made some good calls this game, just basically none of them have worked out. Pearson, Springer for Varsho, now Jansen for Belt. None of them could execute.

[Daniel Labude]

Springer looks like Brett Lawrie right now...so was it?

[Omar]

Yup. Notthing unreasonable. Worth the shot.

[Stangstag]

Belt against high velocity is asking for a K
