    Robberse is off to a great start this season. He put up another very good start, 5 IP 2H 1 ER 3 BB 8K. Season ERA at 1.86 with 16K in 9.2 innings.

    s*** Kiermaier almost robbed another home run.

    In Rivera's defence Vlad probably would have ran though a stop sign anyway so he might as well have sent him. 😁
  4. max silver
    You should seriously go f*** yourself. This garbage isn't wanted here.
  5. max silver
    I remember the previous play as well. Dude has to cover his eyes with his glove or something.
  6. max silver
    You got slammed because you were one step short of suggesting the team should lock their players up in cages during the offseason only letting them out to train.
  7. max silver
    I would hope if he continues to struggle like this he would at least consider spending more offseason time in the pitching lab or consider heading to somewhere like Driveline.
  8. max silver
    I'm not terribly worried about the prospects given up but the 7 year deal is far more concerning.
  9. max silver
    Yeah the Vlad error was a f***up by the umpire. Bo's error was largely inconsequential, so really only the throwing error by Kirk was an actual Blue Jays error that factored into the way the game unfolded.
  10. max silver
    His father's knees were ruined by his years playing on the artificial turf in Montreal so he's probably not a great comparison.
  11. max silver
    His command was certainly still quite a bit off, but at least this time he was largely missing out of the strike zone instead of throwing cookies in the middle of the zone.
  12. max silver
    No they didn't. The Jays played largely the "A" lineup and Bassitt pitched a pretty decent game. The best/most reliable bullpen arms pitched in the game as well. How was this game handed to the Angels in your view?
  13. max silver
    Decent enough lineup although I'm not sure what Merrifield has done this season to warrant hitting so high in the order.

    When you are complaining about guys on the Jays not producing there are plenty of targets ripe for the picking. The primary option right now and easy choice should be Brandon Belt who would likely find himself DFA'd shortly if not for his $9 million contract.

    So it's fine for you to complain about Biggio's lack of production based on small sample size (without actually looking at his statistics) but it's not ok for us to defend the guy from the same sample size when he has good numbers? That's mighty hypocritical of you. For what it's worth Biggio has been a solid if unspectacular contributor since his recall from Buffalo in May of last season. In his last 292 plate appearances he's produced a 110 WRC+/1.7 FWAR.
  16. max silver
    Biggio is rocking a 154 WRC+ at the moment, you'll need to pick a new whipping boy for the time being.

    I recall a Chris Black twitter thread where he showed that the key for Vlad's launch angle was to avoid offering at pitches below the strike zone. Vlad has done a great job at taking pitches off of the plate so far so the launch angle should be fine if he continues to display this type of discipline. Vlad is only swinging at 21.9% of pitches off the plate, vs 30.5% in 2022. His career average is 28.4% and his best season plate discipline wise was 2021 where he swung at 24.5% of pitches out of the strike zone.
  18. max silver
    Only 1 strikeout in 34 plate appearances is pretty insane. I think he's poised to have a monster season even better than 2021.
  19. max silver
    Exactly. The key is not to get too high or too low based on spring training numbers due to a variety of factors, including players working on things, lower quality of competition etc.
  20. max silver
    Digging into the numbers a little further shows that Bass was arguably the least effective in low leverage situations. Low Leverage: FIP 4.58 K/BB 2.89 HR/9 1.65 Medium Leverage: FIP 1.58 K/BB 5.80 HR/9 0.00 High Leverage: FIP: 2.78 K/BB 3.0 HR/9 0.60

    Time will tell if Pearson can command his arsenal sufficiently to maximize his potential. I was surprised that he was optioned to start the season but he and Pop can be easily flip flopped if necessary.
  22. max silver
    He'll have some very stiff competition from Jordan Romano and potentially Erik Swanson if he can repeat his 2022 success. Slider heavy second half Romano was a beast out of the pen, and Swanson was even more dominant, albeit in a lower leverage role.
  23. max silver
    Richards certainly looked very good today. Shelving the s***** offspeed pitches and maximizing use of his changeup just might allow him to be effective more frequently.
  24. max silver
    Pop is likely a slider adjustment away from becoming a really effective leverage reliever. He's has a pretty similar profile to Clay Holmes of the Yankees but still needs to find a more effective secondary pitch to complete the package.
  25. max silver
    It sounds like you think basically everyone f***ing blows though. Espinal's bat f***ing blows, Pop f***ing blows (half win season in only 39 innings f***ing blows apparently), and if I remember correctly you were the idiot harping on constantly about how Romano f***ing sucked and would be the third reliever at best on most contenders.
