GDT: Jays @ Phillies 4:05 PM EST May 10 Birds need a Split.

[Jonn]

Great start Gausman

[Kordesi]

Excellent pitching

[Orgfiller]

Perfect, got through the 6th and past Harper. That Turner hit was totally calculated.

[John_Havok]

That was the situation all the armchair managers would bitch about to no end if Harper did something

 

Harper has owned Gausman in his career too.

[Jonn]

Feels like it. Annoying af

 

I’m also confused why he’s hitting leadoff ahead of those superior hitters. I would want Turner and Harper 1 and 2 every night.

They’ve tried Schwarber at leadoff and Turner at leadoff but both have struggled which is why the lineup is the way it is. Not saying it’s right or anything.

[Jonn]

67 strikeouts is the most strikeouts ever for a Jay through 8 starts. Which is wild to think about it because Roger Clemens back to back CY Young seasons where he struck out everybody and is far and away the single season record holder.

[THANOS]

Please don't blow it Yimi.

[Omar]

Please don't blow it Yimi.

 

One inning Yimi.

[Jonn]

Yimi needs to be able to pitch the 7th. He’s gotta be good.

 

Short stints and fresh hes usually good

Yup. Really hoping John doesn’t try to get a 4th out/2nd inning out of him. Should be Swanson in the 8th and Romano 9th, no funny business

[John_Havok]

That pitch to Schwarber was a great pitch, still got it on a line for a single

[John_Havok]

Alllrighty lets get some insurance here.

[G-Snarls]

Gausman superstar

[Orgfiller]

Nicely done Yimi. Now Swanson and then Romano and close this out. A few runs of support wouldn’t hurt either.

[John_Havok]

This inning will kinda write itself... pinch hit for Biggio, if he gets on base, Kiermeir bunts.

 

If he doesnt... you wait for KK to strike out and hope Bichette goes yard.

[John_Havok]

Well now, a walk does nicely. Time for Bo to earn his 300 million dollar deal.

[Kordesi]

Ha ha - Bo looks like a gun slinger out west. Good man!

[John_Havok]

Dangit. back to praying the pitching holds

[BigCecil]

Nothing like a lead off walk in the 8th in a 1-0 game. Ug. Let’s go Swanson.

[Stangstag]

Great job Swanson… please don’t have an off day Romano

[Stangstag]

Don’t particularly like the matchup with Romano’s slider and Schwarber. Fingers crossed…

[Kordesi]

Stay positive

[John_Havok]

Romano is going to earn this save.

[Spanky99]

Wow!

[wilko]

Jesus h

[Spanky99]

Oof...

[Slade]

That's going to cost us isn't it.

[EdwinsParrot]

Yikes this is not looking good
