Can we bring Joe Panik out of retirement?

Merrifield with another hit;

Jays wRC+ leaders;
Jansen: 144
Springer: 132
Merrifield: 131
Guerrero Jr: 131
Hernandez: 131
Kirk: 130
Bichette: 129

Jansen and Merrifield could be 1-2 by the end of the season.

All of a sudden that cheap year on Merrifields contract next year doesn't look so bad now does it!

 

[Maestro84]

Lol this does feel like a spring training day. Some of the "regulars" are just trying to get reps to stay loose while the bench guys are trying to prove they belong on the playoff roster

 

[Suntouchable13]

Atta boy, Otto! Keeping that 1.000 batting average alive.

 

[mikeyz]

Sit down Zimmer. You’re batting .120. You’re in no position to be arguing balls and strikes. LMFAO

 

[Suntouchable13]

What is the plan here? Why are we using our best relievers? Or is it good to give some of these some guys some action if they haven't pitched in a few days?

Just getting reps, I don't think it'd be ideal to have our impact players be sitting for four days (besides like Springer who NEEDS rest)

 

[Suntouchable13]

Ooof, that's a bad caught stealing by Lopez. Now the #9 hitter is leading off next inning. Mind you, I am just following along on MLB Gameday, not actually watching the game.

 

[Canada4Gold]

They ruined it

 

[ACC1224]

I thought I read they wouldn't turn the rainout into a double header today?

 

[TheBeastCoast]

Gabby got his first HR! Awesome.

 

[red devil]

If you missed Moreno's 1st HR

Buck trying to defend the idea that Derek Jeter was a good Shortstop because "the yankees just wanted to play him at short."

But they shouldn't have! THAT'S the problem. He was not a good defender and he actively hurt the team on defence by being there over Alex Rodriguez.

When they started that conversation, I was waiting for this post from you.

when he got interrupted and then went back to it i wanted to yell through my tv

Otto should just retire after this game while his batting average is at 1.000. it’s all downhill from here lol.

 

[TheBeastCoast]

Zimmer being 0-4 with 4 K's is so on brand. I wonder if he will hit 8 K's on the day.

Something is just so wrong with his swing. Everything about it looks so awkward.

He needs to go to winter ball or something and rebuild his swing from the ground up. He was always a fairly adequate hitter previously.

One of the worst hitters in recent memory

Mitch White is bad and he should feel bad.

 

[BackPassChampions]

White is so bad. I feel bad for him since he is a Jay and hasn't won a game, but it's been brutal.

 

[The Nemesis]

He's having a bad time with the Jays, but like what happened with Stripling when he swtiched over from LA to Toronto there are things in his performance that suggest he has a lot of room to grow and be better than he is right now.
