Blue Jays (Berrios) vs Reds (Lodolo): 9/2/25, 6:40pm

[Brock Beauchamp]

I blinked, and the ALE turned back into a horse race.

[Jesusindashed]

Berrios has been hit around for awhile need him to get it together 

[Jonn]

This Blowpen has been doing everything in its power to piss the division away. Hopefully Berrios can go 7 innings today. Getting 6 outs at the end of games seems to be hard enough.

[sliderguy35]

went away for the long weekend, glad to see that everyone has acted Very Normal about this baseball team in the meantime

on the other hand, they did re-acquire My Personal Nemesis IKF, so maybe the vibes really are terminal for this season

It's utopia to think Schneider won't use Varland,  Dominguez, Hoffman today, even if Jays lead by 10 and Berrios didn't allowed run😅

IKF already starting lmao 

It's over lads 

[Jays24]

Surprised Borucki is getting called up so fast. 

IKF was great for the half season last year so let's hope he can be somewhat of that version.  

Its getting tense in Blue Jays land.

Schneider can't help himself. Vetrin presents. 

[Omar]

Clement and Barger are yesterdays news. 

[glory]

I said it before, IKF is going to start a few times a week. John Schneider is what he is (unfortunately).

 

[Terminator]

Would love to see a crafty move where IKF gets pinch hit for his first plate appearance and Barger/Clement finish the game out.

But who am I kidding. IKF is going 0-4 with 3 Ks...

The savior of this beleaguered pen has arrived!🙄

Actually might not be that far from the truth.  It may mean Little stays planted to the pine more often.

[BatFlip]

IKF and Borucki to the rescue!

Be careful what you wish for:

2025 FIP

Little 2.91

Borucki 4.34

They just really need to minimize letting him face righties, which is hard to do with the 3 batter rule. 

[glory]

The 3 batter minimum makes pitchers like Borucki a lot less desirable to roster. How down on Adam Macko must the Jays be to have him on the 40 man roster yet still see him as less of an option than Borucki?

[gruber9292]

IKF starting? 

LMAO this management team is a laughing stock that were lucky enough to have a bunch of players having great seasons simultaneously to this point. I wonder who made the call on IKF starting, JS or Ross. 

[G-Snarls]

f*** yes George Springer

Way to start it

[Horses Fart]

Springer Dinger 

[Horses Fart]

8 more and I’ll feel comfortable

No excuse against this scrub

[G-Snarls]

OK this is great

[G-Snarls]

Francona may have made a poor decision here

[G-Snarls]

I want at least 3-4 runs here

[dancingmachine]

Come on Captain Kirk 

[G-Snarls]

And Kirk delivers

Big time
