The Jays since the Yankees series will be 6-3 after today (assuming they lose here), and they easily could have lost a couple more against the Angels. With the lineups they've been running out due to the injuries combined with Vlad looking more likely to reach 3000 hits before he reaches 200 home runs, they've probably overshot what they should be doing by a mile. Sucks to lose 3 of 4 heading into the break against s***** teams, but time for this team to get healthy and add reinforcements.

I don't really understanding bringing Bassitt in to pitch one inning, but Schneider won't be able to make pitching changes for 4 days after today so gotta get them in while he can.

Wow didn’t realize JS was ejected. That doesn’t happen often.

Nope. And Davis Schneider homered on the very next pitch after his ejection.

Jojo Parker drafted by the Jays.

Quote

8. Toronto Blue Jays

Pick: SS JoJo Parker
BA rank: 10

Reaction: Parker has been one of the biggest high school helium players of the last year. That’s because of the belief many scouts have in his hitting ability with a sweet, adjustable lefthanded swing and impressive barrel accuracy with an all-fields approach and good strike-zone judgment. There are questions about where he ends up defensively, but the Blue Jays are betting on one of the most advanced high school hitters in the nation. 

Scouting Report: Parker, whose given name is Joseph but goes by Jojo, has steadily climbed draft boards by hitting, hitting and then hitting some more. He’s a strong athlete with a powerful 6-foot-2, 195-pound frame. He has a picturesque lefthanded swing and a nose for the barrel. Parker has a case as one of the best pure hitters in the class, with real power to go with his polished hit tool. He starts with a narrow and open lower half, with the bat resting on his shoulder before taking a standard stride with a simple and quiet hand load to get the barrel into a good hitting position. The swing itself comes with solid bat speed and strength, and Parker does a nice job getting the barrel into different hitting zones depending on how he’s pitched. He has an eye for the zone, will take pitches when he needs to and is a proven hitter against both velocity and spin. He’s got all the ingredients to be an above-average hitter with above-average power. Parker is typically an average runner, but he has turned in some plus run times in workout settings in 2025. A shortstop now, he might slide off the position because he lacks typical quickness and actions. He does have an advanced internal clock, above-average arm strength and the work ethic to earn a chance to prove himself at the position. He could fit at third base, second base or an outfield corner. Parker is committed to Mississippi State but is expected to be a first-round pick. His twin brother Jacob is his Purvis High teammate and also a talented 2025 prospect.

Well at least Varsho and Manoah will be playing in the FCL come Monday.  Only a matter of time before we get our A lineup back and win the division.

Classic Vladdy! Grounds into a double play to secure the loss to the Athletics going into the All Star Break. Not to mention Barger making the minimum MLB salary has more home runs than him. What a joke!
