Eat My Shatkins

Frasso pitched today 3.2 IP, 1 hit, 1 walk, 0 runs, 6 Ks, 51 pitches, 33 strikes I'm assuming he reached a pitch limit to be taken out mid inning. At least hope so.

Springer dinger

Jesus Christ you f***ing dipshits catch a fly ball. f***

And there was the double play ball to get out of the inning unscathed you f***ing stupid ******* Teo

For f*** sakes, f*** off already twinkies

Exactly what I said. Add depth SP? Sure. Trade Moreno/Kirk/Jansen for starting pitching? No thanks.

Agreed, could be a perfect long relief replacement for Strip now that he's back in the rotation Or could be back on the IL in another week or so Wild card indeed

Unreal line up Gausman on the bump Guaranteed loss incoming lol J/K I hope

I think it'll depend largely on what Pearson does in his return. He's a real wild card right now

lol what the f*** is going on with the forum lately?

But why? What if you do that, then Kirk gets injured and Moreno struggles to adjust to MLB pitching? There is no rush to trade anyone right now. The team is solid everywhere except for depth SP, bench OF and high leverage relief (which is a crapshoot anyways).

It's still not "critical", which is what you did say. We don't need to subtract from our starting position players, or our high end prospect capital to keep adding above average starting pitchers just because injuries might happen. That was my whole entire original point

OK, so the Jays can add more starting pitching depth then. It's hardly critical that they go out and spend big (Moreno/Kirk/Groshans/etc) for another top of the rotation starter.

Critical need? Disagree When you're trotting out Gausman/Manoah/Kikuchi/Berrios/Stripling along with the offense we have, adding another quality SP is very far from critical IMO However it would be nice if Hatch/Kay/Francis/Allgeyer weren't sucking ass down in AAA, but I'd rather give Maximo a look if needed before spending big to get another starter right now.

I doubt the Jays are itching to make any big moves right now All 9 starting regulars are + fWAR (some just barely, but they're trending up), and some of them are just now starting to hit. Even Biggio is now +0.1 fWAR Meanwhile Moreno and Groshans are seasoning up nicely down in AAA, Orelvis probably joins them before the season is done Gausman and Manoah are nails right now Kikuchi has been real solid since the start of May Berrios hopefully turned a corner yesterday, and we all know he has what it takes to be at least a solid #3 or #4, if not more Sucks about Ryu, but Strip has been solid covering for him, and Pearson is getting close as well Not many teams can boast that kind of starting position player or starting pitching depth, with several of them underperforming so far it's probably only going to bet better with nicer weather and a weaker schedule The only real weak spots IMO are the bench OFs and a couple BP arms could probably be upgraded, but none of these upgrades would cost you Kirk or Moreno And the BP upgrades might just come from within as the season progresses, so need to trade for them at all All that, and the only free agents at seasons end are Phelps and Stripling IMO the FO can just sit back and watch how it plays out without any fear of a 1 year window closing on them, especially knowing there are probably still some stars coming up through the system as we speak

Tiedemann has completed 5 innings so far. 1 run, 3 hits, 0 walks, 6 Ks, 68 pitches, 49 strikes

Nice to see Berrios pitch a gem What a rotation we have, and now the bats are alive. Gonna whoop some f***ing ass this summer.

I wonder if it's too soon to look at Max Castillo if the Jays need another starter at some point. Still only 23 and just got promoted to AAA, but he's been their best starter since the promotion and has a s*** ton of MiLB innings under his belt.

f***ing stupid weather robbing us of a Tiedemann fix

Hopefully Kikuchi can stay hot. His May was awesome after he dumped the cutter. 2.36 ERA / 2.66 FIP ...and with a struggling Berrios on the bump tomorrow it's important to start off with a win.

Pearson pitched for the Bisons tonight. 2 innings, 1 hit, 1 walk, 1 run, 2 Ks 25 pitches, 14 strikes Pretty average, but hopefully just fine tuning things

Back to back sweeeeeeeeeps!

One more out Let's doooooo it
