WC GDT: Jays @ Twins Game 1, Best of 3... So It Begins...

[Spanky99]

He isn’t tipping s***, he’s command is awful LOL

 

He needs to command it down, we'll see.

[Spanky99]

Can't trust a pothead.. fkn loser

 

Gheeeeeyyyyyyyy...

[Delgalladay]

This offense against good pitching is such a joy to watch

[CJ-Freeway]

Wow s*** call from the ump there. He was giving that pitch to Twins hitters all along.

[thatoneguy]

Dude???

 

Gausman not up to snuff and the hitters aren't exactly providing any confidence.

[Omar]

Someone with more knowledge, is it dangerous to throw the splitter for a strike?

 

Traditionally pitchers threw splitters down in the zone to induce ground balls. When Gausman has his fastball locating for strikes he often induces swing and miss with the splitter as well. Moving the splitter up in the zone and it can be launched. Gausman has to live down there.

[DigitalRock]

More complaining about strikes that were strikes they look flustered already

[Grant77]

The bottom line was a bit off. You can see that was a ball if you watch his knees.

[jaysthebest]

We suck against the great pitching.

 

I didn't understand why everyone wanted us to face the Twins when their top 2 starters are legit.

[Spanky99]

Generally, unless he has the pinpoint FB command, he can, guys give up on it.

[gruber92]

That was clearly a strike to Belt for the K. Why are arguing like frustrated babies so early on in game one?

 

STFU and do better.

[Jaysareus]

Lopez looks unhittable

[DigitalRock]

Our hitters need to be more aggressive on the first pitch. Vlady, Bo, and Varsho all took 2 strikes before swinging.

 

Their approach often this year seems to be at odds with what is needed and lacks adjustments.

Gameday??

Definitely

[bones10]

Throw splitter for a strike lol

[Grant77]

Gameday??

 

The box on the screen isn't always in the right place. Look at Lewis here, it's too low.

[Stangstag]

Definitely curious to see the stuff+ rating on Gausman’s splitter after the game

[gruber92]

Lewis spitting on those splitters in hitters' counts.

 

f***ing fishy..

[DigitalRock]

Royce Lewis fan club

[Zacman]

Gross.

[Omar]

Lewis owning us today:mad:

[bones10]

Gausman is a little stupid lol

[Spanky99]

Gausman not up to snuff and the hitters aren't exactly providing any confidence.

 

It's the 3rd inning, even after that dinger it isn't near over.

[el duque]

Get him out there, awful outting

[Daniel Labude]

Pitching plans continue to be a pile of crap

[CJ-Freeway]

Lol wtf is going on

[Stangstag]

Lewis spitting on those splitters in hitters' counts.

 

f***ing fishy..

 

Yep clear as day something is up

[The Cats Ass]

Well, maybe tomorrow.

[TorontonianJD]

We suck against the great pitching.

I agree. And Jeff Blair was wanting the Rays, turns out he was right. He kept saying the Twins dominate vs Gausman and the advantage of playing the Rays is that the Jays have familiarity because they’ve played them so often lately. Sigh.
