Blue Jays (Lauer) vs Rockies (Gordon): 8/4/25, 8:40pm

[Brock Beauchamp]

The Jays get to enjoy the crisp mountain air of Denver for a few days.

[G-Snarls]

Need to rack up some wins here

Jays low K rate should play well at Coors. Get the ball in play in this park and good things will happen.

Jays' defense should also help. "Stealing" any extra outs can be huge.

The Rockies' bats are hot though and they are 7-6 since the ASB.

Would love a sweep but I won't panic if we take 2 of 3. I will panic if we lose the series, however.

We gotta at least win this series... Red Sox are only 3 games behind of us (technically 4 games because of tiebreaker), and they are like 8-2 in last 10 games.

[Terminator]

Cannot wait for him to make his Jays debut. Probably one more start in Buffalo?

Perhaps debuting at home against the Cubs on the 13th or 14th?

[Jays24]

Should win this one with our Ace on the mound.

Nice, I'm going to go to all 3 Rockies games.

[M.E.]

team seems to struggle with bottom feeders,  Hopefully they can get their focus here versus how they did with O's and WSox.

Not sure how your parole's going buddy, but it's time to drink up and heckle up big guy. I believe in YOU!

[Spanky__99]

Bring it Boys!!!
 

 

[G-Snarls]

Miss Springer in the lineup, that's for sure 

But otherwise it's probably the best lineup we can put out right now 

[Stangstag]

Waiting til 8:40 for this game suxx

Yeah it's possible Santander is not coming back this season, so they absolutely cannot afford to lose Springer for much longer considering he's one of the few guys on the team with power. Hopefully he's healthy soon with no lingering effects. 

[Jays24]

I thought Springer was supposed to DH yesterday or today for Buffalo before potentially being activated tomorrow.  

[hanton]

What's going on with Gimenez?

[Omar]

Bichette in the two spot and Barger cleanup is the better order with Springer off.  Hopefully someone will launch a few today.

[Jays24]

I think the Jays need to bite the bullet and throw Springer in the leadoff spot.  He went from hitting 5th, 4th to 2nd... im sure he'll be fine going back to where he's hit his entire career. 

Springer - Barger - Vlad - Bo - Kirk - Varsho - Clement - Lukes - Schneider/Loperfido.  

[gruber9292]

Varsho batting sixth and Loperfido eighth is a massive joke.

Expected back Wednesday or next series according to Shulman and Siddall.

I'm good with that, as long as you don't cry when he hits a lull.

Injured, high ankle injury, no? He's supposed to hit rehab games like imminent, last I saw.

You’ve seen 2 weeks of Loperfido and instantly think he’s a better hitter than Varsho now lol. Gtfo here dude

Red hot Red Sox are already up 5-0 to the Royals.
