    I have no problem with it and agree it's a competitive advantage. I'm not the poster bitching about it. I like it. I'm all for getting in the heads of the opposition in hopes that it rattles them before coming into the game.
  2. THANOS
    Yep, Shapiro was boasting about up and basically calling for fans to make it a competitive advantage for the Jays by roasting the opposition.

    Awful AB Vladdy

    Having a chip on your shoulder works when the your talent level is much higher than your hype. When it's the opposite, it no longer makes sense and wears thin.

    I think based on game calling, I want the below going forward. Jansen catching Manoah (until he figures things out), Berrios & Kikuchi. Kirk catching Gausman & Bassit (since he calls his own game). I think that's optimal because the former 3 are temperamental and need to be walked through their starts with perfect calling and setups.

    He's a giant Stro in many ways. Low-mid 90s FB, Nasty Slider, lack of whiffs, contact management, tons of bravado and hype. He's a good #3 when he's right and BABIP is normalized.
  7. THANOS
    Yeah, he's awful calling games for Berrios and Kikuchi, I think that much is true.
  8. THANOS
    These curves are perfect in location. McClanahan is nasty.
  9. THANOS
    Manoah has actually been getting super lucky with a high LOB. It was only a matter of time that he paid for it. I really hope Pete can get him sorted out.
  10. THANOS
    I think the pitch clock is impacting him the most. The guy usually pep talks himself to get back into his delivery properly. He can't do that this season, so he has no time to try and get himself right mentally. This inning he looks like Sean Reid Foley lol.

    And now you're going to have to get someone else up in the BP... Why not keep Pop on for the 7th? Like WTF
  12. THANOS
    Ok now I heard them say it's due to the come-backer. This makes sense, better to be cautious.
  13. THANOS
    Schneider come on man.. Even if this works out, why start the BP train now when Berrios is only at 77 pitches? Decisions like this is how you kill your BP.
  14. THANOS
    Our team reporters even mentioned that Manoah came into camp out of shape with poor cardio. That's all on him.
  15. THANOS
    He honestly does look heavier than last season.
  16. THANOS
    Lol it's kind of funny and sad, that the MLB Analyst was bang on about Manoah and Manoah lost it when it wasn't even harsh, it was constructive.
  17. THANOS
    Low 90s, missing location, no whiffs. This guy is just not a big game pitcher. He crumbles under the pressure.
  18. THANOS
    Yep, you could see that Vladdy made that decision after the quick outa before him.
  19. THANOS
    I did hear him say that Verlander told him that's one of his secrets to success, so maybe.
  20. THANOS
    Alek at 90-92
  21. THANOS
    Wow!! Thank you Mayza
  22. THANOS
    Well he obviously is getting shelled with the current FB, it would make sense to want to increase the spin rate exponentially so it's not a slaughterhouse. Small increases won't do s***. The slightest missed location and it's a beach ball for every single hitter. Nibbling on the corners shouldn't be what a pitcher who throws 94-96 needs to do to succeed.
  23. THANOS
    Yep. Manoah looks like a #3/4.
  24. THANOS
    Thanks, that's good to know at least.
  25. THANOS
    Isn't the cutter the same speed, the action looked the same as well?
