GDT: 1/4 Toronto Blue Jays @ Cleveland Guardians (Monday 7:10 ET)

[Masterbather]

Not in love with Hicks so far.

[CJ-Freeway]

Nice win birds!! Lfg!!!

[Jays24]

This will be known as the Biggio game!!

[Jonn]

I feel like that should not have been that interesting.

 

But a win is a win is a win. And that's 4 in a row!

[jaysguy44]

Held the bag.

 

Man, my nerves can't handle these regular season games... No idea how fans do it when they are in the WS

[BigCecil]

Oh man...

 

too be fair, Jansen has no idea where Hicks was throwing the pitch. Hicks was all over the place

 

Lol. Pure self defense back there! Nice win!!

[G-Snarls]

Phew!

 

Holy s***

[Daniel Labude]

That's why u don't stand up behind the plate Danny!! Took away strike 3 from us

 

That and stabbing the glove down at the ball

 

Vlad saves the game with 1B defense lol

[Blastttoff]

Looked like his foot came off when he caught the ball.

 

Oh well.

[o2cui2i]

this was a fun but stressful game. Glad they won because I'd have been frustrated if they had screwed it up at the end.

[Omar]

Phew

 

Birds... 4 in a Row!!!

 

Jays Win! Jays Win! Jays Win!

 

Nice win birds!! Lfg!!!

Oh well.

Lol, what?

[Jaysareus]

Hicks is still better than romano

[Jonn]

Biggio deserves to be on this ball club. Plain and simple.

 

Great to see him have a big night on both sides of the ball.

[Carlos Danger]

Thank God the 8th and 9th from our pen was against Cleveland and not the Orioles or Astros.

[hanton]

That's why u don't stand up behind the plate Danny!! Took away strike 3 from us

 

it's Jansen, he not a good receiver but damn is he a gamer - those blocks were gold

[Jaysareus]

Schneider is in a real slump

[Omar]

What a great bullpen win. We couldn't do that last season.

[Jonn]

What a great bullpen win. We couldn't do that last season.

 

Pen is deep and it's about to get deeper with Chad Green returning and Romano back at some point as well.

 

I don't think people are talking about Chad Green enough. He's really f***ing good when healthy. Like he could be the best reliever on this team kinda good.

[MunenoriKawasakiMVP]

Happy we have the best MLB ERA day. Imagine this team's pitching staff with last year's offense.

[BigCecil]

What a great bullpen win. We couldn't do that last season.

 

For sure. And Silver Fox and Romano are out. Yimi was a bit shaky but got picked up by Mayza and Biggio. Team is starting to fire on all cylinders fingers crossed.

[MunenoriKawasakiMVP]

Hopefully KC and CWS can clutch these wins out. Would really bury the Sox and the Yanks.

[Omar]

Always really liked Cavan Biggio...dude can play!

 

The way you stuck by Craig Biggio's son these past few years is admirable.

[Spanky99]

Thank God the 8th and 9th from our pen was against Cleveland and not the Orioles or Astros.

 

Oh f***ing please, take the win man.

[Jayzfan79]

Hopefully KC and CWS can clutch these wins out. Would really bury the Sox and the Yanks.

 

Watching the ump blow a missed check swing strike leading to a game winning GS by the bosox was a piss off.

[Laika]

Hicks is still better than romano

 

No.

[Spanky99]

The way you stuck by Craig Biggio's son these past few years is admirable.

 

A true Sherriff...

 

 

[Terminator]

The way you stuck by Craig Biggio's son these past few years is admirable.

 

In all seriousness he's barely hanging on. Today will help but he's been negative WAR in 2 of the past 3 years (though today's game might have gotten him out of the red for this year).

 

The fact he bats left helps him a lot. But we have a shitload of bench guys coming up through the system so he'll need to keep playing well to remain on the roster.

He's a bench bat, bro. That steps in and contributes.

[Terminator]

He's a bench bat, bro. That steps in and contributes.

 

He's contributed an 84, 97 and 92 wRC+ the past 3 years including this one. He's fringe.
