General Blue Jays Discussion Thread (2021)
43211234 replied to TwistedLogic's topic in Toronto Blue Jays Talk
35 starts over 4 seasons. And these past two seasons in which he has tried to maintain a starter's workload he's run into nagging groin problems. Now he's trying to re-work his delivery to get past these issues. There are some very real risks here and I think it's too convenient to attribute them to jitters. Hopefully he's able to settle right into the rotation beginning with his next start. But we'll have to see. -
Every time I think about this, I always come back to pushing back the mound. Move it back 8 inches or something.

That's out of the pen though. His stuff wasn't near that in his starts last season either. Hopefully he's able to bring that stuff and command as a starter. -
Well saying rebuilding his entire delivery was probably wrong. Sounds more like significant tweaks. Doesn't sound similar to the Halladay situation.

https://www.sportsnet.ca/mlb/article/blue-jays-left-difficult-questions-pearsons-shaky-debut/ Big Nate rebuilding his entire delivery to have "less violence" to avoid re-occurring groin issues. Yikes! I really don't think his stuff taking a step backwards has much to do with any mental issue. Hopefully he can figure out a way to get the most out of his arm and stay healthy. That sounds like something you do in the minor leagues though.
-
Huh? He was so scared that he couldn't hit McGuire's glove?
-
Yikes. I think he still makes his next start in the majors but that was ugly.
-
It just seems more likely to me. He's had injury problems and his stuff might be significantly worse as a starter. He turns 25 later this year. I am not at all saying it with certainty. Just seems the more likely outcome if I had to guess.
-
I think Pearson ends up as a reliever. Every time I've seen him the command is poor. And his stuff played up so much out of the pen last year against the Rays in the playoffs.
-
That would be pretty funny. Just admit that it's a bit of a joke and, instead of major renovations, have a line for doubles and a line for homeruns. They should do that for RF in Yankee Stadium.
-
His UZR is positive. It's the positional adjustment pushing his Def value negative.
-
The Tigers are still on the hook for 2 more years, AFTER this season, of Miggy at $32M + $8M buyout for his 2024 option. He's got a 12 wRC+ so far this season.
-
22 batters faced. 12 K 3 HBP 2 1B 4 GO 1 FO Is he definitely done? At 81 pitches probably. But maybe he comes out for the 7th.

Any word on SWR's velo?

I credit the extremely tight pants he wears on the mound. -
2 flyballs, 2 homeruns for the A's
-
It's going to be pretty terrible playing in Buffalo with fans in the stadium against the Red Sox and Yankees.
-
What an awful broadcast today. Buck and Tabby have spent the entire game complaining about their usual 3 topics.
-
Manoah in AAA sounds like the front office saying that he's completely in play for the majors this year.
-
Manoah's gotta be at AA too (he's actually older than Bichette lol). I don't think you can send him to A+ given his age and his spring showing. Since SWR was at A+ two years ago I think he starts in AA as well.
-
Groshans to New Hampshire
-
Minor league rosters ought to be released soon. AAA is supposed to start a week from tomorrow and I don't see why it would be pushed back.
-
Kopech last pitched in 2018 and he's still just 4 months older than Nate Pearson.
-
Jansen seems like he needs to make some significant mechanic adjustments. Maybe stand up straighter. I have no idea. But he just doesn't make quality contact.
