Jays vs Orioles - June 6 @ 1PM

[Abomination]

Vlad's wRC+ is up to 139. Managing to do that with a .131 ISO. Excellent walk to strikeout rate.

 

Just so weird that he's having like a early Freddie Freeman, prime Mark Grace season at the plate.

 

He's 2018 Joey Votto

[Terminator]

I think I know what you're talking about but I can't remember who.

 

It was the strikeout pitch to Cowser. Nasty pitch.

I think I read somewhere that he has had good movement on his slider he just can't control it

[Masterbather]

Damn, didn't realize it was an early game. Way to salvage a split with the ugly birds!

Take that split all day...

 

LETS GO BLUE JAYS *CLAP, CLAP* *CLAP, CLAP, CLAP*

Lol @ all those people who were talking about the Jays becoming a pitchers park. Imagine pushing the fences in on a park that was already considered a hitters park and yet using 1 year of data to form your opinions. Some of the people of this board truly must work with Atkins based on their opinions lol.

 

Example: B

[Spanky99]

Despite the bullpen hiccups that was one of our better games of the season. The 2 out RBI hits were incredibly pleasing.

 

Hopefully we can spank the A's.

[Stangstag]

Gladly take a split with the Os, but this team doesn’t inspire any confidence.

 

Got absolutely blasted the first 2 games, and barely managed to squeak out these 2 wins.

 

A win is a win at the EoD, but its hard to feel confident we could win against good teams when it matters.

Yeah the split is nice but getting blasted 24-12 over the four games doesn't exactly inspire a lot of confidence moving forward lol

[Spanky99]

Nothing said about Kooch in here? 21 swinging strikes and held this dangerous lineup to 1 ER, I am disappoint in you folks. Studly start.

People are used to his greatness already. It's only news when he's not great anymore

[Brownie19]

I'm super high, but it feels like this win just changed the tone of a lot of people on this board. Interesting.

[Spanky99]

What'd you delete, Masterbather?

A split with the Orioles isn't bad at all, but like you said, the series didn't inspire much confidence especially the way the first two games went.

 

As well, given how the Jays dug themselves in a hole early this season, splitting 4 game series won't cut it. Need to go on a run and hopefully they could sweep the A's in Oakland this weekend!

 

Maybe these two last games are a turning point for this team, we'll see!
