1 more w and back to 500.

Well, well, well....

Despite some early misgivings the bats came alive in the 8th.  Oka continues to mash.  Valenzuela hit Banda into the shadow realm. The bullpen continues to get it done.  Bury them tomorrow.

Valenzuela has to get almost every start until Kirky is back 

[Laika]

I guess we get irrationally excited about Okamoto now?

He's Troy Glaus

No man, he was hit directly on the toe, find out later or tomorrow, wasn't good.

The defense on this team has become a joke man.  Practically all these errors are on nibblers.

1st in baseball.

He seems to be settling in nicely.  Love to see it.

Now that's a nice W for the Jays. Let's keep it going.

[Spanky__99]

Lots of Jays fans in Minny, love to see it.

He's been chipping in with a lot of big hits in recent games. I like the power potential in his bat a lot if he can find a way to put the ball in play with more frequency. I also have to give acknowledgement to Myles Straw who may be on his way to showing that his solid 2025 season (by his standards) wasn't necessarily a fluke.

It sounds like he's fine as X-Rays didn't show any new damage. I can't even begin to imagine how much it had to hurt getting hit exactly on the broken toe even though he had a guard in place.

These reactionary fans are just absolute clowns.  Depending on the outcome of a pitch or an at bat, a player can be trash or an MVP. Baseball is a hard game. You fail 70% of the time if you are a good player. How can a ball “fan” be that stupid lol
