Blue Jays GDT: 2024 v2 | Thu, Apr 25 | @ KC | 2pm ET/11am PT | Berrios vs Ragans

[LaP]

I'd be very curious to know what happened between the playoffs last year and the beginning of the season where the Jays were one of the least aggressive team on base to the beginning of the NYY series where they started to be more aggressive. But i like it it's a lot more fun to watch.

TOR Blue Jays (11-9, 3rd AL East) vs SD Padres (11-11, 2nd NL West)

What was the reason behind those uniforms the Padres wore last night?
I don’t think I’ve seen uglier uniforms in any sport.

It was a 3rd uniform i suppose. It was ugly but had a Miami Vice vibe to it which was fine i guess. Don't mind a team going wild with a uniform they wear once in a while.

Another big SP matchup tonight

It’s so easy to pinpoint the Jays offence as being an issue, but pitching has still put up one of the worst ERAs. Plus the defence has easily been the best in baseball.

They still haven’t hit their stride but the offence is starting to manufacture a bit more (4th in wRC+ last 14 days). Bullpen needs to get sorted but the starters need to start throwing more innings as well.

I’m not sure about a reverse retro but their City Connect jerseys will be revealed on May 30 and debut in game on May 31.

Based on the other City Connect uniforms we've seen, I think it's safe to say whatever they come up with is going to be really, really bad.

Probably .

I wouldn’t be opposed to something reminiscent of the late 90s era with the white jersey blue sleeve look. I had one of those jerseys back in tha day. Wish I still had it.

Meant to say big SP matchup advantage

Berrios is due for some regression (99% LOB%) but also for more Ks

Pitching has been solid the last 10 games. As a group, it was really bad only in the Colorado loss

But yeah, need more innings from the starters. It'll come with Gausman and as Yariel gets more starts under his belt

Have any gone beyond 7 innings yet? I think it's only Berrios that got to 7 IP once if i recall.

 

[The Nemesis]

Trash HR for trash player, amirite?

 

[MK78]

VARSHO 3 run DINGER!

 

[Forgotusername]

Just love getting a notification of Varsho's homerun before I see it .

 

[Tw1ster]

I think Varsho is my favourite Blue Jay

 

[jetsforever]

Varsho the new Chapman?

 

[phillipmike]

Not seeing man “worst trade ever” or “trash player” or “Atkins should be fired” in the last few days, I wonder why?

Um, excuse me. I believe I just said that Varsho is a trash player who just hit a trash HR. Don't ignore me, dammit!

I’m sure if he pops up next at bat Shaner will come in and say trash player.

 

[Tw1ster]

That strike our pitch on Tatis was the filthiest pitch of the season

 

[The Nemesis]

stupid Machado and his stupid punchable face.

 

[GoonieFace]

Maybe they see Moreno is hitting like .220 with 0 dingers

 

[Forgotusername]

Man, ump has a short fuse.

 

[The Nemesis]

It boggles my mind that anti-stats people will whinge about analytics and claim they're meaningless numbers that don't reflect anything, then will do what Buck just did and bring up "opponent batting average vs 3-6 hitters in a lineup" as if that isn't just noisy junk is nuts.
