Daulton Varsho? More like Donger Far-show.

Sorry, that was terrible. I am deeply shamed.

Like I said earlier if you hit homeruns you don't need to worry about hitting with risp

Dalton wants in on the dingers.

 

[MK78]

Ok Dan Shulman, that was not "Deep Right Field" at Fenway. LOL.

But we'll take it from Varsho.

It was a no doubter for sure. 413ft

I'm liking the hitting today.

Nice to see Vladdy with 2 extra base hits

Yeah i misjudged it, I thought it was closer to the pesky pole side.

The curse of Raimel Tapia has been lifted?

If so that’s good news but doesn’t bode well for us in the future as the Rays just signed him.

Both times the Blue Jays have driven some in, the player was at 1st. New strategy is for the players to stay at 1st so someone will drive them in.

Exactly did they get a hit with RISP tonight. Don't think so.

I believe they are 0/6

 

[canucksfan]

Put him out there again in the 7th.

This ump is getting worse as the game goes on.

 

[canucksfan]

Nice hustle!

 

[LaP]

A guy able to get infield hit that's good to see.

Sweet Caroline needs to die.

 

[red devil]

This guy called Schneider homerun on his 1st atbat

Chapman won't be a Jay next season for several reasons.

You don't want to commit big money to 30 year old free agents, especially guys with a history of injuries. They decline fast - witness Springer. Chapman's defense is already in decline - he doesn't look like the platinum glove he was a few years ago.

On top of that, the free agent market for 3B is thin so he'll get bidders and a pretty big contract.

And finally, our two best positional prospects are both 3B with an ETA of 2024 so that's one position where we have internal options for once.

I liked this post and agree to a large extent, but the Jays have to be very mindful of having no options other than rookies. The sad reality is that contenders really cannot have rookies as their primary options at a position as important as the hot corner.

 

[MK78]

Good game. 5 solo homers, sure i'd like for someone to be on base, but its better than no homers and no hope.

Manoah pitched well too.

RISP for the Jays actually refers to 1st base

I like Hicks' throwing
DeJong, however, does not know how to hit apparently
