GDT: Twins @ Jays Game 1 of 3

[John_Havok]

Okay …Belt gonna turn it loose right here.

[Solaxys]

Just need a sac fly please

[JaysFan99]

Damnit. Yet another runner on 3rd, less than 2 outs failure.

[TheHurl]

Don't swing until two strikes Belt

 

Not one pitch in the zone.

[Casual Fan]

that was bad

[Casual Fan]

Had he not swang, he would've probably walked in a run

[JaysFan99]

I’ve never seen a team struggle so much to hit a sac fly

[Stangstag]

What the f*** is Chapman swinging at holy s*** man

[Omar]

Runner on third = KRYPTONITE

[John_Havok]

2 god awful PAs with bases loaded. That was sad

[Casual Fan]

Jays got only 1 situational hitter, Kirk

[Spanky99]

Damn. Missed a big chance there.

Its crazy. Has to be a coaching/strategy philosophy failure at this point

[WryNGinger]

Those 2 PA's were hard to watch.

[Omar]

Yah their 3/4/5 are due up but he was pitching pretty well. Surprised they pulled him. Must want Pearson to get a couple innings in?

 

Schneider with a rested pen is like fat man with a cold pizza in the fridge. Hard to resist.

[Stangstag]

Chapman went up there with no plan, swinging at 3 straight balls and none were remotely close. That’s awful

[DigitalRock]

This offense is so frustrating

[Stangstag]

You think they’d wanna save some arms for tomorrow’s game…

[WryNGinger]

Pearson's curve was sick there.

[Jays24]

Regardless of how this inning goes, it's stupid to take Kikuchi out with the way he was pitching... especially considering our situation tomorrow.

 

But this management gonna keep trying to think they're smarter than they are...

[Spanky99]

Nice Chappy.

[Omar]

With Francis going tomorrow and presumably on a very short leash; why wouldn't they push Kikuchi for as many innings as possible today and use Pearson multiple tomorrow. 5d chess.

[Casual Fan]

I would've let Kikuchi face at least 1 batter

I didn't realize you just posted this or else would have abstained.

Yup, it's like he starts to overthink the strategy side and gets in his own way sometimes. Hopefully he starts figuring this stuff out before the playoffs.

 

Now Gray is gone too? Dafuq?

It's clearly a management direction. People used to blast Montoyo for the same thing.

[Jays24]

Weird to pinch hit so early. Why even play Biggio at that point lol

Not surprising considering Schneider was his assistant

[Omar]

Two outs and not in scoring position.

[Spanky99]

Former Jay, Brock Stewart. He's throwing hard, seemingly out of nowhere.
