Blue Jays GDT: 2022 v2 | Thu, Apr 21 | @ BOS | 1:30pm ET/10:30am PT | Gausman vs Houck

[Man Bear Pig]

That was an excellent job of framing by Kirk. Clear ball and this umpire hasn't been egregious.

The 2 seam action definitely made it look like it was on the corner. That's too close to take if you're the hitter.

You can see the potential Kikuchi has. Good FB. He won't replace Ray but he can do what Matz did last year.

Ray wasn’t Ray until Walker fixed him. That said, he has a lot of work to do with Kikuchi.

 

[TheBeastCoast]

Bo will figure it out...but soon would be great.

 

[Emerica]

He's got good reflexes that's for sure

 

[PanniniClaus]

Kiki with quick paws

 

[The Nemesis]

Solid outing for Kikuchi today.

 

[canucksfan]

Solid outing for Kikuchi today.

He got better as the game went on too.

 

[Suntouchable13]

Ok, not bad. But it's funny how 5 innings is a success at this day and age.

 

[The Nemesis]

Ok, not bad. But it's funny how 5 innings is a success at this day and age.

He threw 90 pitches, which considering pitchers are about as far along as they'd be by like the 3/4 pole of spring training, that's decent. Also any outing where he goes more than 2 or 3 innings and doesn't get obliterated is worthy of praise/celebration.

 

[The Nemesis]

"Tapia doesn't look comfortable against lefties"

You're overthinking it, Dan.

 

[canucksfan]

Tapia is awful. I have no clue why he gets starts.

[tmlms13]

Gerrit Cole really struggled in today's start. Didn't make it through 2 innings.

He's been awful ever since they put in the spider tack rules

 

[Emerica]

Phelps has looked stellar so far this year

 

[Suntouchable13]

 

[ShaneFalco]

Phelps has looked stellar so far this year

Quietly efficient

 

[TheBeastCoast]

Has Bo gotten himself into a favorable count all season?

 

[Orca Smash]

Bo and springer struggling at the plate right now.

 

[canucksfan]

I jinxed Bo's defense.

 

[PanniniClaus]

K - we need less of the Tony Fernandez stuff and more set and fire

 

[Man Bear Pig]

Bo does it again. So unneccessary.

 

[thinkblue]

Ugh Bo

 

[TheBeastCoast]

Man Bo is having a bad night.

 

[Forgotusername]

Bo needs to learn to plant his feet before he throws.
