    Right on, I look forward to seeing the results. I recall an interesting Chris Black Twitter thread which outlined how Kirk had a better ERA in 2022 with quite a few key members of the Jays pitching staff vs Jansen. I think he was outlining the difference was more due to Kirk's better framing vs Jansen vs a pitch calling issue though. It seems odd that they would call a dramatically different game though given how each player is using the same scouting reports and the information is readily available in their wristband cheat sheets, but it certainly seems reasonable to think that Jansen is better at this given how much more experience he has vs Kirk.

    Is there a tab or something to click for this, or did you need to crunch some of the numbers on your own? I think the reliever information may be more useful if you were to compare individual relievers with Jansen calling vs Kirk calling to make it more of an apples to apples comparison. Let's hypothetically surmise that Kirk has been saddled with a bunch of Cimber and Bass appearances for instance, where Jansen has seen appearances with more effective relievers like Swanson and Romano (not saying this is the case, just wondering what the splits look like).

    Where do you go to look up this information?

    Did Kirk originally call slider or was that pitch shaken to by the pitcher?

    The club's overall pitching numbers are insane the last two times through the rotation. The team as a whole has put up a 1.91 ERA/2.53 FIP with 10.52 K/9 vs 1.92 BB/9.

    I was perfectly fine with the construction of the Jays pen and I'm on record stating I thought it could become a strength if Pearson and Green were able to pitch up to their capabilities. I'm perfectly fine with the team signing Kiermaier as he fit in the team's budget better, however I didn't feel the need to constantly run down the other choice due to an obvious deeply rooted set of insecurities such as you display. I like both Jansen and Kirk as the two of them formed MLB's most productive catching duo last season. Early on Jansen's framing numbers look to be greatly improved so he very well may have shored up his only major weakness. If you think it's cool or somehow gives you credibility to talk s*** about a legitimately good player who plays in the team I assume you are cheering for, then you are even dumber than you appear based on the constant stream of nonsense that you post. The incessant back patting and low quality troll baiting are simply exposing you as the loud mouth low knowledge fraud that you are.

    Jansen is arguably the team's hottest hitter right now, but I wouldn't expect the likes of you to actually recognize that. Over his last 8 games Jansen has produced a 225 WRC+ with very solid underlying numbers to back it up.

    Just like you told us that Bellinger was completely washed up. Oh wait, he's already produced 1.1 WAR in only 22 games. Or how about when you told us that Nick Frasso was a total nothing prospect. At a quick glance he's currently tearing up AA with a 1.86 FIP and 13 K/9. It seems that more often than not you are shown to be completely full of s*** with your bold proclamations.

    The White Sox batters couldn't have had much fun in this game, they struck out a combined 17 times against Jays pitching.

    I think the home runs are going to work their way down as the season progresses. The relievers aren't being overused so badly with the rotation rolling the way it is.

    That was a really cool moment. I've become a huge Kiermaier fan now that he's no longer playing for the Rays. It's so nice to see him doing stuff like turning softly hit singles into doubles, stealing home runs, making low probability running catches look easy etc.

    Based on how Tiedemann's numbers looked it might have been better to be drunk for this one.

    This is about as good as I think Berrios has looked as a Blue Jay. The changeup is such a difference maker pitch for him so it's nice to see him using it more often.

    DRS likes Vlad's defence more than OAA where he's credited with 2 DRS up to this point. Even Bo is credited with 2 DRS so far which is a nice development.

    Apparently Cimber has now reached 5 years of service time and can reject a AAA assignment outright. https://www.mlb.com/glossary/transactions/service-time

    Lower back tightness. He's already said it won't be an issue past today's game.

    I thought I heard something mentioned on one of the recent broadcasts, but I could certainly be mistaken.

    I recall it was mentioned that Cimber made some tweaks to his mound positioning in the offseason in hopes of improving his fortunes. This seems like fixing something that wasn't broken though as he was a pretty decent reliever who could occasionally pick up leverage innings if required. His fastball and slider velocity are both down several ticks and his command has been pretty poor as well leading to a lot of very hittable pitches.
  19. max silver
    Apparently Cimber has enough service time that he can't be sent down without agreeing to it.

    Maybe Belt isn't cooked after all
  21. max silver
    That's a great tag.
  22. max silver
    Kikuchi is a fantastic fielder as he has great quickness off the mound.
  23. max silver
    Vlad bomb!

    I have a six month free offer from Sony after buying a PS5 recently.

    Interesting lineup where 4 of the last 9 batters are left handed.
