    Wow. I can't see Bauer coming back from this. Soonest he can come back is May (?) 2024 and by then he'll be 33 with nearly 3 years of missed time. Combine that with the PR stench that would come with signing him, and I don't think any team looks at him as being worth the trouble.

    They won 2 games, and should have won 3 games, against a better team in a year they should have been rebuilding. It was definitely a great season overall.

    Gausman is a vetrin and was dealing, and he wasn't allowed to go past 88 pitches. I think Manoah is done. Gotta get Garcia in there.

    Tapia batting cleanup is either massive incompetence or an epic troll job by Buntoyo. I know "he's just a puppet" is starting to gain some traction here, but there's no chance any analytics team, Blue Jays or otherwise, would recommend this lineup construction. Even if they feel Tapia has some untapped potential (his statcast numbers have trended forward this season so far to his credit), at least wait until it translates to on field success.

    They didn't protect him pre lockout and were ready to lose him if a Rule 5 draft happened, so it's definitely possible he is traded mid season. If they feel he's not capable of carrying this performance over, then it would make sense to sell high, but the numbers/age/skill set look enticing.

    Samad Taylor: 20.8 BB%, 19.4K%, 159 wRC+, .218 ISO, 11 SB (1 CS) Speed + pop + walks + dramatically reduced K's. It's only 72 PA, but he's looking very interesting now, especially given his defensive versatility. Time to follow in Teoscar and Espinal's footsteps as random trade deadline pickups who pan out.

    A balanced schedule is the AL Central's worst nightmare.

    How many more starts until starters can reach 100 on this team? Gausman was literally dominating them and is taken out at 88 pitches. I know Buntoyo would move mountains if it meant being able to use as many relievers as possible, but 2nd time in a row Gausman has dominated and been taken out before 90 pitches.

    I like bunting Espinal over to 2B to give Zimmer (career 62 wRC+ vs LHP) a chance to drive him in.

    Gurriel has hamstring soreness apparently.

    Romano was definitely shown in the bullpen when the score was 2-2 (he was standing in the pen by himself watching the game), and Shulman said he'd be coming in if the Jays took the lead, but I don't think they showed him actually throwing. So I guess it's possible he was just standing there and Merryweather was going to come in regardless, but it certainly sounded like and appeared that he was going to come in based on the broadcast. Either way I'm glad it wasn't a save situation and they didn't have to use him. The Jays need more of these types of games/wins.

    Yeah I think Biggio is moved some time between now and the deadline. Injuries will happen and maybe he will play more then, but I think they have soured on him. Some team will look at his last name and his 2019-2020 numbers and give up something for him, probably not much, but something useful that would help the Jays.

    A win in Mark Buehrle time. Nice.
  14. glory
    Considering Montoyo saw Giles' arm fall out and still let him throw a few more pitches after that is not a good sign as far as Romano's usage. Hopefully we get a few laughers (wins) to give him a breather.
  15. glory
    I'm actually shocked they had Romano even warming up. This would have been his 4th game in 5 days, and he's already pitched in like 70% of the games this season (at least it feels that way). Take it easy with him Charlie.
  16. glory
    Nice Bo. Please don't use Romano now.
  17. glory
    Hopefully Cora likes to use the bullpen as much as Buntoyo does. Eovaldi looks unhittable.
  18. glory
    Berrios has been lucky as hell so far.
  19. glory
    Romano has pitched in 9 of the 16 games (with 1 off day mixed in). I know all these games have been close, but might need to start designating a 2nd closer to handle some save situations here and there.
  20. glory
    Almost like batting your worst hitter 9th instead of 7th might be a better option.
  21. glory
    Cavan will be traded for a reliever in a couple of months.
  22. glory
    Who is pitching the 9th? Romano has pitched 2 days in a row and a lot of games in general.
  23. glory
    Nope. Gausman was at 88 pitches and was cruising along. Either start the inning with Romano or let Gausman finish it. Buntoyo is not built to let starters go deep into games. He has a weird obsession with using relievers as often as possible. Not watching the game but the moment Gausman gave up that single in the 9th, Charlie probably sprinted out there in pure joy to take him out. Oh well, a win is still a win.
  24. glory
    This one is on Charlie. Berrios threw 96 pitches yesterday in 6 innings. Gausman was at 88 after 8+ and was cruising through this game.
  25. glory
    Charlie would have kept him in if he threw a clean inning but the moment a runner went on base he was going to pull him. Sucks that it happened to be on the 1st pitch of the inning.
