What's the plan with Zeuch and Kay? Because if they planned on using both to start a game moving forward they wouldn't need this bullpen day. Are they going to piggyback each other for their next game? Because they're both still on the roster so you assume they still plan on using both.

 

[Da Cool Rula]

why pull Matz out with only 80 pitches.

Nah I think it was the right move. They were starting to make harder contact.

 

[Jimmy Firecracker]

Great AB from Kirk and running from Palacios

 

[The Nemesis]

 

[Canada4Gold]

 

[Da Cool Rula]

Yes Kirk. Good to see

 

[Suntouchable13]

What do you guys think about Kirk being the #1 catcher? Jano just hasn't hit. Not last year, not this year so far.

Short term, fine. Long term he's gonna have to prove he can handle the rigors and find a way to overcome his noodly arm.

 

[Cloned]

Shatkins struck gold with Matz. Dude's been great so far.

Well, no doubt Jansen has the better tools but he needs to figure it out at the plate. Or else you're just another Higashioka.

True. But at some point the value of having a good defensive catcher even if he can't hit balances out with having a good offensive catcher who struggles to stay back there full time and is basically a free pass to base stealers.

 

[Canada4Gold]

Is this an unassisted triple play? Runner at 3rd didn't tag up so was auto out once he ran back to the dugout



If not Votto should have sprinted to 3rd to get the unassisted triple play

 

[The Nemesis]

Huh. I thought the name was familiar.

Jake Brentz was a Jays draft pick. He was traded to Seattle for Mark Lowe in 2015.

 

[Da Cool Rula]

Shatkins struck gold with Matz. Dude's been great so far.

So far yes.

 

[Suntouchable13]

Semien is struggling, not getting on base or hitting much. So how about they take him out of the leadoff spot for now? Move everyone 1 spot.

Bo
Vlad
Grich
Gurriel
Biggio
Tellez
Palacios
Semien
Jansen

 

[Canada4Gold]

What is Dyson doing? That's an easy run with his speed and Bo having to dive.

 

[Discoverer]

Huh. I thought the name was familiar.

Jake Brentz was a Jays draft pick. He was traded to Seattle for Mark Lowe in 2015.

I'm trying so hard to remember the other guy's name and all I can come up with is Wood, which I'm pretty sure is wrong.

 

[Canada4Gold]

Ugh, he was DOA

 

[Canada4Gold]

I'm trying so hard to remember the other guy's name and all I can come up with is Wood, which I'm pretty sure is wrong.

The guy we traded with Brentz for Lowe? Nick Wells. I had to google it. I remember being high on Nick Wells. Boy was I wrong

 

[Da Cool Rula]

Bring back Boomer Wells!!!

 

[Puckstuff]

Vladdy is incredible

 

[WhyYouHaveToBeMad]

need this out badly

 

[Suntouchable13]

All pitchers are bad fielders. The gold glove award for pitchers is for the pitcher the sucks the least at it.

 

[Canada4Gold]

Nothing like playing for 1 run in the 5th inning
