  1. There are a lot of positives to this start. He averaged 94.2 MPH on the heater and induced a 57% whiff rate on 13 of 23 sliders. He threw 62 of 92 pitches in the strike zone as well.
  2. I can't recall so much negative energy being expelled towards a utility player in my time on this board. Biggio is a guy who needs to earn his playing time by producing results, and when he's going well at the plate he can become a starter during the duration of the "hot" streak, and when he's struggling at the plate he can have his playing time reduced and only be used in favorable matchups. It's really odd to see so much complaining about the guy this season when he's helped the team win with 0.5 FWAR in the first month of the season and still sits at 110 wRC+. He's a notorious slow starter as his career has seen an average 67 wRC+ for his career in the first month of the season so it's good he's managed to keep his head above water up to this point.
  3. I don't think the outfield defense is going to necessarily be an issue as both of Biggio and Schneider have been approximately league average in LF/RF and Springer should still be able to provide solid center field play when needed.
  4. The last I heard he was expected to get back to throwing shortly. I haven't heard any prognosis on timeline for return however.
  5. Gausman hasn't really gotten the splitter working yet but he's been getting by with great fastball location recently. Kirk hit just like today in spring training so hopefully this is a sign of good things to come. Jansen has been hot with the bat to start so it would be huge for the lineup to have both catchers contributing some offense.
  6. The quintessential Blue Jays victory based on great pitching and elite defense.
  7. I loved Varsho's reaction to the play.
  8. Springer has been tremendous defensively this season.
  9. Man Bo is just so broken at the plate right now.
  10. He had a great ten pitch at bat and fouled off a ton of pitches so he fully earned his walk. Sometimes you just gotta tip your hat to the batter.
  11. That fly ball was a massive butt clencher.
  12. He's been able to maximize his modest physical tools to become a solid well rounded player. It's too bad a certain other member of the team has gone in the opposite direction.
  13. The accuracy is decent but he has like a 30 grade arm.
  14. Kirky looks like he's heating up at the plate.
  15. He's a surprisingly solid defender in left field.
  16. Well in the end they scored zero runs so the early pull didn't end up mattering.
  17. s*** that pitch was in a terrible spot.
  18. Good job by Gausman escaping the jam.
  19. He is so good at receiving low pitches.
  20. s*** hopefully Gausman can pitch around the misplay.
  21. That was my major complaint in that Kikuchi hadn't been employed out of the pen all season. It almost worked as Kikuchi induced soft ground ball contact but unfortunately the batted balls found the holes in the infield.
  22. Think about it for a second and it should make sense. The offense struggled to the point where the team felt it was necessary to employ extreme strategies in an attempt to limit the Twins ability to score runs.
  23. The early pull of Berrios never would have happened if the team had any confidence in the offense to deliver.
  24. No style points for that catch for sure.
  25. Kirk flashing the elite athleticism today.
