  1. White flag by Charlie early it looks like. Kikuchi looks like he doesn’t even want to throw right now. Human rain delay between every pitch and the rookie warming in the pen.
  2. Kikuchi is barely surviving right now. Has no fastball command at all, Yankees are just sitting on the slider
  3. Great. Another game where every close pitch is going to go in favour of the Yankees, which will force the Jays to swing at garbage all day
  4. Not trying to rain on the parade but, keep in mind he’s probably getting a lot of these strikes on swings and misses well out of the zone due to minor league hitters being s*****.
  5. They’re probably all nursing something to some degree. Vlad has DHd on opposite sides of an off day, we know Bichette has a foot contusion that he’s playing through, Chapman and his hand also. You could probably find a reason to DH any regular in the lineup right now, which is why we keep seeing Tapia continue to get way more starts than he should. I’d be playing Biggio over Tapia, but it’s obvious the staff sees things differently.
  6. I can’t watch this game, this ump is f***ing infuriating
  7. I was looking at the past month numbers. Yeah, he’s hot right now, but he should not be in the starting lineup as often as he is. He’s just not that good and he’s utter trash in the field
  8. I’d dispute your definition of “well” but he has hit well enough to be a backup over the past month. Too bad he’s playing way more often than he should be
  9. Espinal been scuffling lately, some bad swings early in counts
  10. That was a fortunate hop right into the glove.
  11. So sick of seeing Tapia in the lineup.
  12. FO has been perfectly clear on Pearson, he’s being built up to be at least a multi inning reliever and he has to earn the promotion. Hasn’t done that yet, so far having thrown 4 appearances, all out of the pen, hasn’t gone more than 2 innings and has been 6 days between each appearance. Doesn’t sound like he’s coming back to the rotation this season to me.
  13. Just checking in, seems the one bad inning curse as a result of using the worst relievers available isn’t a good recipe for success
  14. GS spent $175m on team salary and another $170m on luxury tax penalties in 2021-22. Damn.
  15. Probably Espinal at 3rd, Biggio at 2b and the rest largely the same I would guess. never know what course they would have taken with Biggio's injury time early one, maybe Lopez comes up sooner ... maybe Taylor ... hard to say really. But if that was the case, arguably the lineup might not have suffered at all. Espinals D at 3b isnt a massive drop from Chapman, though it's not top tier elite like Chappy for sure. I think if they had signed verlander, maybe they chase Ramirez that much harder and land him and he'd be playing 3rd, Espinal at 2b, Biggio and a pile of prospects gone. so hard to speculate.
  16. Maybe, though if Lopez is already with the team and both Bichette and Chapman banged up, I dont think they carry 3 catchers and they'll just activate Lopez and punt Lawrence.
  17. They signed Gausman on Dec 1, and were still offering 25 million to Verlander in mid december. Then Kikuchi and Chapman were added for about the same amount, just 12m each in mid March. It's kind of an interesting thought exercise to go back and consider if the Jays would even have traded for Chapman ( no way they would have signed Kikuchi at that point for sure).
  18. INteresting that it took this long and an injury to BIchette to put the best players in the lineup.
  19. Thanks, now we have an abomination from Laika. If the Jays lose, it's on you. If they win.... Laika gets all the credit.
  20. jesus jumped up christ what have you done
  21. Looks like most of the Jays also thought the game started at 7 since they didnt really show up at 1
