Blue Jays GDT: 2023 v10 | Wed, Sept 6 | @ Oak | 330pm ET/12:30pm PT | Ryu vs Sears

In Varsho’s defence, he laid off of the high fastball and the ump still called ball 4 a strike so he had to chase and expand up there.

Kirk looked at three balls up out of the zone for balls and then proceeded to swing at the 4th. Varsho has swung at that same pitch all season regardless of this game.

Varsho’s been hitting that pitch for a month now

Clement's defense has been very iffy so far.

In his defence, he’s a 2B being asked to play SS. He had 12 career MLB innings at SS until Bichette’s injury.

 

[Eyedea]

Whit’s been on a real bad stretch.

 

[Discoverer]

I'm sad for the triple AAA squad. They are having a good game but the vets are letting them down. I'm not sure the "it's the players fault" excuse will be valid at the end of the season. After all someone has put those vets on the field and someone is coaching them.


Still got to defend on this. Just try to touch the ball a bit it's doable many hitters are doing it. It's not like he was fooled by the pitch he just missed it.

Vladdy's having a better game than anyone.

He's definitely improved, but it's velocity dependent for him being able to catch up to it.

He still swings at pitches he can't cover, and are more often than not balls.

Just take those and try to get the pitcher to come down.

 

[Cloned]

Feels like this game is the season.

Texas winning makes it almost a must win.

A series loss to this Rockies team is downright embarrassing.

Yeah but he was kind of responsible for yesterday's loss so it's like -1 +1. He was lucky to not be out at 2nd too.

... And another strikeout on a 4th ball.

 

[Cleetus]

nice work by Green there....

 

[Vector]

That must feel so good for Green.

 

[the valiant effort]

Atta be, Greener

I guess I thought you were talking about this game.

The “kids” are pretty good.

 

[Forgotusername]

Big insurance run

 

[canucksfan]

It’s great seeing the young guys do very well when they get called up

 

[Suntouchable13]

These callups have been so good. Saving our skin. Clement, Horwitz, and Davis (of course). It's good that they have been so hot down in AAA, coming up to the majors with a lot of confidence.

 

[blue stick]

Lawrence is the tonic for what ails

7 for 13 this game, with 2 BB.

 

[Da Cool Rula]

Just gotta keep guttin it out. Just keep hoping things will click for this team. The kids are doing their part. Maybe just maybe everyone will get hot just at the right time.

On a side note Orelvis looking real good in Buffalo.

Orelvis looks excellent at AAA other than his K rate has crept up slightly again.

 

[Da Cool Rula]

Nice. 2 outta 3. On to Oakland. Positive.

 

[VanillaCoke]

big win

 

[canucksfan]

Orelvis looks excellent at AAA other than his K rate has crept up slightly again.

It would be best for him to start in AAA. Helps his development and also gives the Jays some good depth.

 

[canucksfan]

Rangers and the Astros play each other next while the Jays get the A's. Need to sweep them.
