  1. Look at that Chuckles, you can have 2 arms up, bro. Learn please!
  2. No, doubt it. They'll use Mayza/Dolis and Romano.
  3. The wall has giveth and taketh. Verdugo psyched Grich on waiting on the path, well done.
  4. Chatwood's bad, and that block attempt was pretty awful. Strip's line gets rekt, too bad Chuckles didn't let him finish the inning. Free passes are the worst.

    Vegas 4th line breaks the back of the AV's.
  6. That's all she wrote! Lets f*** up the Bosox Jays!
  7. Coming into this series Jays were 1 of 8 teams with a winning record against teams < 500, he's a dolt troll.
  8. Welp... Hendricks against the bottom of the order.
  9. Full Report Lansing is the most hitter-friendly park in the Midwest League and it aided Moreno's 2019 power output. You can't fake an 11% strikeout rate, though, which was especially impressive considering he made that much contact as a teenager in full-season ball. Even though he is young, I thought it was unlikely Moreno would develop much more raw power, both because catching takes such a physical toll on the body that it often dilutes offensive production, and because Moreno is a smaller-framed young man. But his max exit velos at the 2020 alt site were up above what they were in 2019, which appears to be the result of added mass rather than a swing alteration. It's an encouraging sign and part of a pretty impressive 2020 for Moreono during which he was seen on alt site video, during instructs, and then later in the Venezuelan Winter League, where he hit .373/.471/.508. I think the length of his year is as close as any catching prospect has come to being forced to replicate an actual full season behind the dish in 2020. Defensively, he catches on one knee until there are runners on or there are two strikes, then sets up really wide in his crouch regardless of the pitch coming, which prevents runners from being able to signal pitch type to the hitter. He can sometimes be preoccupied with framing and whiff on a pitch he should be able to handle, but he's a capable if unspectacular defender and framer. Even with the little extra juice, Moreno's offensive profile is still all about hand-eye/bat-to-ball, punching airborne contact to all fields. He does enough of that to project as an everyday catcher. The Jays were compelled to add him to their 40-man this offseason, and he's one of five catchers they have rostered, making Moreno a potential trade chip if the competitive Blue Jays want to add to their roster. (Alternate site, Fall Instructional league, Venezuelan Winter League)
  10. 5 K's to Keuchel? I was expecting a lot of GB's, but not this? LETS GO BIRDS, wake up.
  11. No doubt, that had to be caught, they all know it.
  12. I was initially thinking huh, our offence has been good? Last 7 days the Jays are rocking an abysmal 80 wRC+, 30 points lower than are full season numbers that rank 4th in MLB... wake up Birds!
  13. Damn, see what you caused Gurriel... Ryu getting lit up the last 2 starts.
