Skubal is much better than Kirby.
-
Leaving Finnegan against Naylor is a very questionable call here.
-
Imagine pulling your back to back Cy Young ace at only 99 pitches for a guy who was closing games for the Washington Nationals the last two seasons.
-
Like either way Skubal isn’t pitching Sunday or Monday. Why not ride him for one more inning?
-
The Blue Jays scored zero runs that game, and the pitchers only gave up 2! It wasn’t even the wrong call by the results.
-
Kirby’s numbers are historically MUCH worse a third time through the lineup. At that point you’re risking the game getting out of hand by leaving him out there. Just because the reliever coming in blew it doesn’t mean it wasn’t the right move to make. The odds of that homer happening are much lower than one of the other guys beating Kirby.
-
At 99 pitches I don’t think there’s any chance he’s not coming back out. Only question really is if you let him finish the inning at 115-120 pitches. I say the answer is still yes. I only consider taking him out if he allows a base runner around the 115th pitch.
-
Skubal is pumping gas approaching 100 pitches. He needs to stay in this game.
-
He looks unhittable. I’d be genuinely disappointed if he doesn’t get the chance to get through the 7th barring some trouble on the bases.
-
And then you run the risk that a homerun makes it a 3-1 game. It’s not like Gleyber Torres and Riley Greene coming up, again for a third look against Kirby, are good matchups for him.
-
Can’t believe I’m agreeing with AJ Pierzynski that this was objectively the right move by the numbers.
-
Not with zero outs and the tying run on second. s***** for them that Speier blew it immediately but that’s absolutely the right call to make in an elimination game. Carpenter rakes against RHP and it’s third time through the lineup.
-
Kerry Carpenter is SO bad against lefties that he only has 197 career PAs against them in the regular season. Even his own team doesn’t want him to face them. Just a perfect swing in an unlikely spot.
-
I don’t think pulling Kirby was necessarily the wrong move with Carpenter coming up for a third look. You’d expect the lefty to not s*** the bed completely against him, who sucks against lefties.
-
Kerry f***ing Carpenter. Holy f***
-
Javy Baez has had an incredible series.
-
Skubal is so good. Complete dominance. A shame he’s down in the game.
-
The guy with the two homeruns in game 1? -
General Blue Jays Discussion Thread (2025)
Orgfiller replied to Ryu In My House's topic in Toronto Blue Jays Talk
Nance over Scherzer for me. Scherzer looked so bad in September, he's gonna be nuke city in the postseason. Bassitt 100% if he's healthy and we'll need a 4th starter. Bo is obvious depending on health. -
Have you seen what we've done to Yankees starting pitching? If Gausman, who's done well all year and has had successful starts against the Yankees is a concern, imagine how the Yankees feel about theirs. People are acting like all the familiarity is on the Yankees' side, but we're seeing all the arms from the Yankees' pen each game and the starters we've faced a bunch too.
-
Tigers have blown this game open. 7-3 off a Javy Baez HR. 7 runs in the last 1.2 innings.
-
The Tigers have mounted a comeback from down 3-0 to now take a 4-3 lead in the bottom of the 6th. M's bullpen absolutely s***ing the bed.
-
Does that really matter? Outside of an absolute blow out - which Lauer has already pitched in and not looked great - would you really want Lauer going 5-6 innings? 3 decent innings is all we realistically need from him.
-
Makes it especially important for Varland to give us two clean innings today. Get through Goldy against RHP once and then limit how many times he faces a lefty.
-
Honestly I think the swing showed he was all in on FB. Whether he was tipped of it or not, we've seen Judge willing to trade a risk in a whiff for a potential big swing, and that's exactly what happened. I'm willing to say he read the situation well and was swinging at fastball anywhere near the strikezone, and was extra loaded up for it. Maybe he had the confidence that if Varland instead went with knuckle curve but missed that he'd be good enough to foul it off or off-balance drive one into the outfield.
