  1. Tiedemann looked fine. The two singles were lucky. He was mostly 97. A bit wild.
  2. honestly, it seems like the ump is at fault here lots of weird stuff happening and it seems like it all stems from the ump not being ready
  3. the clock operators are having some issues this game
  4. old friend Carlos Santana
  5. in the article on Sportsnet today it mentions that Kikuchi wants to fall off the mound differently this year he might be trying something different from the traditional "straight line to home" thing
  6. Good job in the 3rd by Kikuchi quick out went 3-2 but didn't lose the guy, groundout made Bryan Reynolds look stupid on a high fastball for the K. Threw a slider for a strike, then got him out in front of a changeup for strike 2.
  7. that "lineout" by Bae was also not hard hit. More of a shallow fly.
  8. Baseball is 10000000x better with a pitch clock omfg
  9. Lukes did the same thing the pitch before and almost missed his mark
  10. Yeah I'm not sure that was actually correct by the clock operator, or the ump. They are probably told that the clock runs unless the umpire calls time. But if an ump steps away to get balls or whatever isn't that effectively time? I dunno. Like, if the pitcher cannot actually throw a pitch if he wanted then the clock should not be ticking down.
  11. Lukes can only blame himself. He was taking a lap, fixing his hair, and saying five hail maries after every foul ball. Just stay in the box, lol.
  12. If you are watching on GameDay Kikuchi looks pretty good again. The first BB had some close pitches. Second one, he lost command of his slider. The "lineout" of Smith-Njigba was actually a normal flyball. He made Austin Hedges look stupid. Some nice changeups today. Popping 96+ on the FB.
  13. I can understand why Lukes thought the clock wasn't running But, just one of those spring training learning experiences about how the whole thing works
  14. Nathan Lukes strikes out on an auto strike!
  15. Barry Davis' LinkedIn is cool Experience Bolton Honda Sales And Leasing Consultant Bolton Honda Jul 2022 - Present 9 months Bolton, Ontario, Canada Sales and Leasing Consultant at Georgetown Honda Georgetown Honda (905) 873-1818 Apr 2021 - Present 2 years Georgetown, Ontario, Canada Rogers Communications Blue Jays beat and in game reporter Rogers Communications Sep 2002 - Jan 2017 14 years 5 months
  16. wait, how could we forget Sam Cosentino?
  17. just wait
  18. Duane Ward was a monster. He kind of... sacrificed the longevity of his career in order to be a bulk reliever in his 20s. I bet if you look at his game logs you'd see some spooky stuff. Like pitching 2 innings three days in a row, or throwing 55 pitches in relief then only getting one day off, haha. Or pitching, I dunno, 19 games in 30 calendar days or whatever.
  19. In 2008 the Toronto Blue Jays were on track to have ZERO players hit 20 home runs. Vernon Wells was sitting at 18 going into the final game of the year. He would hit two home runs that day, driving in 5 runs in a 10-1 win over Baltimore. Legend.
  20. What would the reasonable list of candidates be? Key Clancy Guzman Henke Hentgen Barfield Wells Moseby Encarnacion Olerud Whitt Donaldson White Alomar McGriff Shapiro Atkins Wilner edit: Roger Clemens should be here if Donaldson is edit: Duane Ward sacrificed his arm for the Blue Jays
  21. Really, I think once you exit round 1 (and honestly, most of the time only the top half of round 1) the drafts in our deep dynasty leagues are close to flat. Like, the returns on the typical 2nd round pick might not be meaningfully different from those on 4th round picks historically.
  22. Okay, go try to trade one for anything other than a cut candidate or mediocre reliever They only periodically have some tiny bit of value
