Blue Jays GDT: 2023 v1 | Fri, Apr 7 | @ LAA | 9:30pm ET/6:30pm PT | Bassitt vs Sandoval

[Blitzkrug]

The Vlad/Springer Smuckers commercial at least is funny in terms of plugs.

Hahahahahah NAH

"I don't care how many runs I give up, I'm going to stay out there and keep my team in the ballgame."

Ummm, if you're giving up a lot of runs you're not keeping your team in it. You're kind of doing the opposite.

 

[Cloned]

This ump has the tightest strike zone

 

[The Nemesis]

But is he a baseball player, Buck?

You misunderstood.

By giving up more runs, the game takes longer to end. Thus, the team stays in the game longer.

 

[canucksfan]

Garcia has been an underrated signing

 

[Seath The Scaleless]

I feel like it has been shrinking every inning. It was pretty big early in the game

So the secret Chris Bassitt strategy is to just prolong the game until the opponents die of old age?

Risky gambit.

 

[The Nemesis]

"Did you call it the Big A?"

"No."

*awkward pause.*

Fantastic.

 

[red devil]

Thought Varsho might have PH for Merrifield with the right hander on the mound and for his defense

 

[Seath The Scaleless]

That Angels sweep at home last year was so weird. Destroyed the Yanks and Sox on the road, then laid an egg vs the Angels before winning like 7 series in a row lol

In the day of analytics, you need to think outside the box.

 

[Seath The Scaleless]

Well, the perfect baseball player does exist. It's Varsho (according to Buck)

 

[canucksfan]

Huge inning.

 

[Blitzkrug]

Shaping up to end well. Romano gets the bottom of the Angels order? We take those.

 

[Killer Orcas]

Well, the perfect baseball player does exist. It's Varsho (according to Buck)

He bunts, has power, speed and gun of arm he's damn close hopefully average stays above 270 though than he's close to perfect!

 

[PanniniClaus]

Swanson survives it...

 

[Seath The Scaleless]

Nice plays by the OF

Swanson got away with a few meatballs that inning

 

[The Nemesis]

Well, the perfect baseball player does exist. It's Varsho (according to Buck)

Nah, for Buck it's Jeter. Or George Brett.

 

[trellaine201]

Great job Swanson!

 

[MS]

Great OF defence there from all 3 guys.

 

[Morgs]

Great job by Swanson (kinda) to shut it down. He should probably be buying the OF a beer though.

Sometimes you gotta just laugh at how good guys like Ohtani are though. Pulled an outside splitter for a double.

 

[I Hart Conor Garland]

I’m so f***ing happy baseball is back. The Jays are miles ahead of my other teams for me. Canucks lol and Jordan Love Green Bay.

 

[EpochLink]

Alright, close this shit out

 

[Morgs]

That was... pretty pathetic from the 7-8-9. Lfg romano
