Blue Jays (Lauer) vs Orioles (TBD): 7/29/25, 6:35pm

[Brock Beauchamp]

Wasn't Morton scheduled to pitch? Looks like the Orioles might be hedging against a trade this morning...

[Masterbather]

So already no Kirk, I'm guessing no Springer at least for today and maybe more.

Heiny will certainly split the games.

Going to be a couple of ugly lineups. 

 

[Pendleton]

Hopefully can have a big lead by the time Lauer comes out and then have a hard throwing reliever take one of the O's out of commission for a few weeks with a pitch on the hands. That Springer incident was complete ********. Holliday could stand to use some key development time, let's go with him 

[hanton]

Massive blow if we lose EITHER kirk or Springer for an extended period of time

The injuries are really starting to stack up. I'd be fine with a split today.

Morton has never been listed for this start, so he wasn't removed or anything.

You've got the preview for the 2nd game. First game of double header is Lucas vs Morton

If I'm the 27th man I'm definitely making an impression before being sent down tomorrow lol

Double header in Baltimore with a heat warning in effect. 

This is going to be a disgusting day so if the more disgusting team (hint: orange) wins one or two of these, don't cry too much. 

[Jays24]

Surprised they didnt let Vladdy and Bo take opportunities at the DH spot for the games today.  Let's hope for a bounce back effort. 

[Spanky__99]

I'd be happy with a split at this point. Sweeping a DH'er rarely happen and it's hot as f*** there.

Yup.

[Wake n bake]

Why the hell didn’t Estrada start 

[Jays24]

Vladdy with the heads up play but Bo/Clement too late to react.  

[M.E.]

Well we couldn't enjoy the success.  Now we go in to the swoon.  Hopefully not to long

[Laika]

relax, dinks 

there will probably be 40 runs scored today 

[Doubleplay21]

Lucas giving up 6 runs is not out of the question

 

[Omar]

Nah, we got to beat last place teams. Don't settle for a split. The Blue Jays have to act like a first place team. Let's beat these clowns. 

[glory]

Keep in mind, Lucas/Estrada are the depth starters in case of injury to the top 5. Either that or pray Manoah, who hasn't been good/healthy since 2022, comes back strong. 

Add a starter at the deadline. 

[gruber9292]

Can't blame the heat, everyone plays in it.

He's the long man today.

[Laika]

FO/Manager should probably be fired for this erroneous decision!

That'd be just swell.

Injuries are catching up. Baltimore has a good lineup, since their terrible start haven't they been a couple games over .500? We have to score runs to beat this team and our lineup is getting weaker by the day.

We're in a very tough spot at the moment.

I've been saying for a while that pray for Manoah might end up being a big part of the plan.

Don't count on Manoah for much. If Yesavage makes it through the trade deadline, I more optimistic about him helping out rather than Manoah.

He can be our 2015 Stroman this year.  Both are just as annoying except Manoah's motto is Fat Doesn't Measure Heart (FDMH) lol.
