Bassitt has proven that he can be the no.2 pitcher of this rotation behind a “healthy” Scherzer* if the Jays are post season contenders

however adding the asterisk after that name of Scherzer can be legitimately life and death for the Jays survival come playoffs.

 

they need another big time name who is a proven and tested playoff pitcher who won’t wither under the bright lights and can be the Ace.

 

zero confidence in Gausman and Berrios both weak minded individuals

 

All 4 of them can show flashes of dominance from time to time. Just gotta hope they have an ON night during a playoff start. And manager needs a quick hook if things start going south.

Our manager will go into the game with a plan and not adjust that plan based on what happens in the games (see Kikuchi replacing Berrios)

Yes, that’s the fatal flaw of this organization. No “feel” for the game.
