Blue Jays GDT: 2023 v13 | **WILDCARD SERIES GAME 2** Wed, Oct 4 | @ Min | 4:30pm ET/1:30pm PT | Berrios vs Gray

[MS]

Biggio has been awesome both offensively and defensively in September. He's earned the right to start these games over a rookie who is coming off an 0-30.

 

[Da Cool Rula]

First break

Kaboom

 

[TheBeastCoast]

Damn hit it to hard lol

 

[TMLeafer]

Lol almost the exact same sequence on the first pitch as yesterday

 

[Da Cool Rula]

Good pitch

Earning the right doesn't mean anything in playoffs imo. You field the best team. Now maybe the best team is with Biggio. We will see it's up to him to prove the coach right. But going with an earning the right mentality is very "Marc Bergevin".

 

[phillipmike]

Bad bounce off the wall there. Should have been a double.

Rays down 7-0. They are about to be clean swept. They haven’t scored a run in 15 innings.

 

[Budz]

Belt sucks -should not be batting second.

 

[Da Cool Rula]

Sigh

 

[mikeyz]

Belt is total f***ing garbage.

He's earned it by being the best player most recently, not because he's been on the team for 4 years.

 

[Da Cool Rula]

Come on Jays let’s see some 2 out runs

Swinging at first pitches (yet again)

 

[robertocarlos]

Always swing on the first pitch. You might not get another chance.

 

[ACC1224]

Not a popular opinion I'm sure but I won't miss Tubby if he leaves.

 

[saska sault]

I'm all for being aggressive but get your pitch.... Vladdy and other guys seem to think being aggressive means swinging hard at anything close to the zone rather then spending the first 2 strikes looking for something to barrel up. Which is strange considering these same guys have done it previous seasons. Getting some hard contact early which is a nice sign, let's get some early runs.

Belt is total f***ing garbage.

This thread was bad enough with one shaner.

 

[the valiant effort]

Biggio at least making him throw

 

[LaP]

OMG that was close

 

[mikeyz]

This thread was bad enough with one shaner.

He's not?

 

[LaP]

At least they make the starter work tonight

 

[TheBeastCoast]

Great AB from Biggio.

 

[MS]

He's not?

136 OPS+ would indicate otherwise.

It's almost like baseball is a sport where failing 7 times in 10 is still very good.

 

[Da Cool Rula]

Waaaat Biggio

 

[LaP]

Wow right in the middle of the plate not too much movement either
