    I didn't even mention Biggio's results since coming back up from AAA, that's you attributing statements to me that I didn't even make in this discussion. There's no doubt he didn't look great early on in the season, but I've certainly been encouraged by the quality of at bats he's bee producing since rejoining the MLB club. He's also looked pretty good defensively as well. This is likely a make or break season for Cavan's future with the Blue Jays given the number of quality infield prospects in the upper levels of the minors. I tend to give him a bit of a pass for last season given how many different injuries he was dealing with throughout the year and have not been a big fan of the Keith Law driven narrative that he's not a useful major leaguer or somehow completely lost his baseball skills after suffering through an injury plagued season.

    What small sample of games am I hanging on? I'd love some clarification there, although I suspect this is just more of you talking out of your ass like usual.

    I thought that it felt like a bit of an overpay at the time but given the trajectories of SWR and especially Martin it feels more like Atkins sold high on a few of his prospects before the bubble burst.

    Go ahead and pat yourself on the back. I choose to not panic over small sample sizes and come to sweeping conclusions that this will be the same result at the end of a long season. You are constantly grousing that Biggio is finished despite barely having any at bats, were whining about how good Grichuk was performing despite his expected stats being some of the worst of his career, etc. etc. I had simply expressed the fact that aside from one really bad start Berrios had produced results which were pretty much in line with what he had done over the course of his career.

    That's concerning to me as well. There was a prior game where it was cold and rainy where he had similar issues but that certainly wasn't the case yesterday.

    I had made the same observation how he looks to have ironed out his command issues. He looks to be serving as a multi inning reliever which would likely be of great use. Merryweather is a prime candidate to be sent back down to AAA given how ineffective he's been.

    This is his second game in recent memory where his velocity was down noticeably. If he's struggling through some type of injury he'd likely be better to go on in the injured list for awhile to get healthy again.

    Have a little faith. The Jays bats are bringing it today.

    Jays are lucky the Angels bullpen is just as bad as the Jays pen.
  10. max silver
    That's was a really dumb challenge by the Angels.
  11. max silver
    Hooray.
  12. max silver
    This is going swimmingly.

    Borucki needs to figure out how to throw strikes in a hurry. It's remarkable how poor his command has been.
  14. max silver
    This looks like it's going to be a very long game.
  15. max silver
    For f***s sakes. Too bad the long man was used to pick up a 9th inning save last night as it looks like he's going to need to soak up some innings today.
  16. max silver
    It looks like he'll need to smoke and mirrors his way to outs as his stuff is a steaming pile of s*** today.
  17. max silver
    Nice to see the club finally have a little luck with runners in scoring position.
  18. max silver
    Yeah he's had a lot of nice at bats since returning. Too many strikeouts early on but that should settle over time.
  19. max silver
    Espinal's 2021 success looked to be an unrepeatable mirage but his early season 2022 succes was well earned as his batted ball metric backed up his results. He's slumping a bit at the moment so hopefully he can turn things around.
  20. max silver
    Marsh has made a lot of nice plays this series.
  21. max silver
    Are you always such a miserable grouchy prick? Just asking.
  22. max silver
    Meatball central in that at bat with two hanging curveballs in a row.
  23. max silver
    I haven't completely given up on Borucki if he can ever sort out his command issues. Much like Merryweather it appears as though he was a sticky stuff user in early 2021 as his spin rates have dropped off dramatically after June of last season so he'll need to prove he can be effective without the extra spin.
  24. max silver
    It's nice that the offence seems to be hitting it's stride lately and the starters continue to be very good, but goddamn this team needs some bullpen help. I can't for the life of me understand why Merryweather was brought in to face Ohtani and Trout. I can only guess that Charlie was hoping to save Cimber for a potential 9th inning save situation. It's crazy that the bullpen's long man of all people had to lock the save down. This deadened ball can f*** right off. Chapman and especially Jansen were robbed of home runs last night as balls that looked to be leaving the yard died on the warning track. I think Chapman is poised to go on a heater at the plate given the quality of contact he's been regularly producing.

    I really don't think this is worth getting so worked up about. Springer hasn't exactly been a picture of health through his career. He has a stated goal of appearing in 150 games this season, and up to this point is on track to appear in 155 games. It appears as though the careful load management has been effective in keeping him healthy and on the field. If he continues his current pace he'll be worth 5 FWAR over the course of the season.
