I didn't know that was a thing. So are both games always 7 innings ?

This year amd last year it has been like that. Going back to 9 for next year

The atmosphere at the Mets-Yankees game is crazy. LGM

 

[Bjindaho]

God, terrible baserinning from Gurriel there. Gotta be more intense than that.

Not trying to pick on you but the throw was on the money and Gurriel is our slowest non-catcher. He would have been out.

 

[SpezDispenser]

Absolutely stunning comeback. Just...wow.

 

[stickty111]

I don't know how healthy Springer is and I'm not sure it's even 50%, but whatever it is, he is still valuable. Hit 2 huge homers for us this season.

 

[canucksfan]

Dyson is going to go down as one of the underrated pick ups this season.

He won’t be a starter but he will come in late, cause havoc on the base pads and play great CF defence.

Dyson has been on base 4 times with the Jays and scored 3 times. He has yet to make an error in CF.

Wells was too worried about Dyson rather than worry about Lamb and Springer. Springer hits the bomb.

Agreed which is why starting Dyson like Charlie did yesterday doesn't make sense.

 

[Cloned]

Someone was bashing him?

I was half joking. People were saying he might be a bust due to his health, which admittedly might still be true.

 

[Canada4Gold]

is McGuire hurt?? How is Jansen at the plate right now?

Jansen has an OPS in the .900's since May. Outside of a putrid April he's been as good as Kirk.

Not pinch hitting for Lamb with literally anyone was n issue though. Meanwhile Buck continued to prop him up about how good of a game he had(which he did) after his at bat, including the sac fly which normally would help but was literally the same as a strikeout in that spot.

 

[The Nemesis]

Someone was bashing him?

There was some "and we're paying him how much for how long?" when he first went down in the Mariners series. There was even someone who honestly suggested trying to trade him now.

Most people aren't bashing Springer, just questioning if it makes sense to keep him in the lineup when he is struggling and hobbled as much as he very visibly is.

 

[Morgs]

Jansen's been solid since he came back from injury.

.260/.412/1.126 in September. I still would potentially consider putting Kirk in, but Jansen is absolutely better than McGuire.

Jano now with BABIP. Who'd have thunk it. (Checks my post history)

Red Sox take a 7-2 lead, ugh

 

[djdev]

buck martinez is just the plain worst, ball was already in the stands before he realized it wasnt a fly ball out.

 

[DFF]

Left for yoga after 10-5

what a pleasant surprise. Almost make me like Montoyo, almost

all good, they face lance lynn tomorrow

 

[LeafChief]

Holy F

He needs to be at the ballpark. If he can't, get rid of him and let someone else do the broadcast.

 

[Cloned]

Hopefully he does better than Ray did yesterday

Taijuan Walker sucks. 4-0 Yanks

As Siddal said 50% of Springer is better than many 100% mlb players.

 

[Vector]

It started last season due to the pandemic.

 

[habamillions]

Luckily jays came back. Now need game 2. Redsox and yankees both up big

If he’s running out of the box he makes it easily. Once he lazily jogged down to first, yes, he made the right call by not trying to stretch it.

Remember people complaining we didn’t sign Walker and got Matz instead? Worked out pretty well I’d say.

Yes and partly the reason why I posted that. Walker got off to a hot start but it was mainly luck. A year contract for him was dumb on the Mets part.
