Blue Jays GDT: 2022 v3 | Next: Sun, May 1 | vs HOU | 1:30pm ET/10:30am PT | Valdez vs Gausman

[Man Bear Pig]

Alright Biggio it is.

Seems like a Charlie move

 

[Man Bear Pig]

So do we have a rightie on the bench to pinch hit Tapia or we just f***ed here?

No righties on the bench right now as far as I can tell.

 

[The Nemesis]

How long can you keep Bo hitting 2nd? That spot keeps coming up at crucial times and Bo looks absolutely lost right now.

Charlie: "I hear you."

next game: Tapia bats 2nd.

But why would you pinch-hit for Tapia? He's the hero we deserve!

 

[TheBeastCoast]

Romano's save streak about to get ended due to a ghost runner isn't it lol

 

[Man Bear Pig]

Charlie: "I hear you."

next game: Tapia bats 2nd.

1.Tapia 2.Tapia 3.Tapia. 4.Zimmer 5. Tilapia 6.Tilapia 7.Vladdy 8. Valera 9. Panik

 

[Man Bear Pig]

Romano was due to get lit up.

 

[Maplebeasts]

Well f***.

 

[Tralfamadore]

Darn

 

[Maplebeasts]

Ah well at least Romano won't have to think about extending a save streak again for a while.

 

[stickty111]

That hurts. Oh well another series win

 

[as Pure as Evil]

another series won. would have been nice to get a sweep. but oh well on to the next

 

[hoglund]

The streak had to end and with all those close game wins they were bound to lose. At least they took 2 of 3.

 

[Blitzkrug]

Romano was due for a blown save. Between the last two being extra tricky you could feel it was coming.

Oh well, should take the pressure off him a bit. Still a series win

 

[1specter]

Chapman and Tapia cost them.

 

[habamillions]

Damn this game sucks but won the series thats the main thing. Would have preferred the blowout earlier then the extra inning loss. But romano was due for a bad game. Time to rebound

 

[Maplebeasts]

Chapman and Tapia cost them.

I personally think Kikuchi having major control issues today and Bo making 2 big mistakes defensively were even more problematic.

 

[TGB]

Pfft. Tapia. Also kind of funny seeing Kikuchi going from being too flat to being too wild. The guy is really in his head right now. He should be sent down for a spell and brought up only against weak teams until he settles.

Still nice to see the clutch hitting carrying over from the end of last season.

I personally think Kikuchi having major control issues today and Bo making 2 big mistakes defensively were even more problematic.

Having Tapia batting ahead of Espinal also likely played a huge role.

Damn this game sucks but won the series thats the main thing.

Yep. Winning series against good teams now will pay tons of dividends later...especially given it all came down to one measly game last year.

 

[Canada4Gold]

Just finishing the game such. Such a frustrating affair. From the early runs on (bad ump call) walks and errors, but there were so many baserunners he probably deserved to give up a couple runs. To leaving so many guys on base, to Collins and Espinal coming up clutch to give us the lead, to the Biggio error to tie it, to the 8th and 10th ending with Tapia leaving 5 runners on base, to the game winning HR which I didn't think was a HR off the bat.

Winning games is good but if the offense can only get us up 1 late everytime this is going to happen eventually. We need some bigger leads late

 

[Seath The Scaleless]

I don't think the pitch to Pena was that bad. Falling behind 2-0 sucked and Pena was sitting fastball, but bottom corner of the strike zone was fine. I guess Romano was due with all the hard contact he had given up. Credit to Pena for sending it beyond the wall

On one hand, in the non-yankees losses, we had leads and/or giftwrapped runs for the opponents with crappy fielding. (Even in one of the NYY loss, couldn't take advantage of Chapman's walk fest).

On the other hand, no series losses to date even with a few key injuries and the offense not fully alive yet. Time to crush the Sux

 

[robertmac43]

Non-jays but still well worth the watch.

 

[Morgs]

Non-jays but still well worth the watch.

Funniest part about this is that even though Angel is awful, he might have called the best game the Jays have played in this year and both teams were giving it to him for correct calls. The players hate the guy.

 

[Hurt]

Angel Hernandez is one of the worst umpires in the history of baseball. The Ump Union is insanely strong to keep this dinosaur employed.

 

[Blitzkrug]

Josh Hader's look says everything;

 

[Seath The Scaleless]

There were some truly horrendous calls in that game








Love what Schwarber did.
