Blue Jays GDT: Next: vs CWS | Fri, Jun 20 | 7pm ET/4pm PT | Martin vs Turnbull

[LaP]

I'm now confident Green can protect that lead.

 

[MK78]

Great win today! Lauer gave them the 5 innings, bullpen did their job and the bats came alive.

ive started watching some jays games this year. its nice to actually have a fun team that can score some runs. its been a few years but this is a team i can get behind and root for.

I hope you weren't watching in April, LOL. We were all pulling our hair out, it was even worse than last year.

Man, Barger and Clement are bangin away. love it. I hope its here to stay

 

[MK78]

Yanks lose, Jays 2 games back.

Yanks lose, Jays 2 games back.

Last time I checked they had runners on 1st and 2nd and nobody out with the top of the order coming up. Thought they would get at least one.

 

[MK78]

All 3 Wildcard teams are from the AL East now, Red sox climbing back in.

I honestly didn't think this could happen this year.

 

[CabanaBoy5]

Outstanding hitting from the top 3 in the order. Kirk is in a funk, hitless in this series. I still don’t see what this team sees in Davis Schneider. Lauer great pitching along with Yariel.

 

[EpochLink]

Blue Jays are a full 3 games ahead in the Wild Card, first place,

 

[Seath The Scaleless]

Yanks getting owned by the likes of Kyle Hendricks and Jack Kochanowicz. 17 Ks in 11IP from two sub 16% K% pitchers.

It'd be nice if the Rays stopped winning.

 

[Tw1ster]

This team is relentless offensively.

Something that can’t be said about previous Jays teams in this era.

And yet just the day before yesterday, dread started creeping back into this thread because we couldn’t hit against the Phillies. Ignoring the fact they trotted three of the best starters in the NL out against us that series.

Nice to see them bouncing back against a decent Arizona team

 

[arso40]

Barger’s bat speed and violent swing reminds me of Gary Sheffield.

Reminds me of Colby Rasmus though Colby never really ended up putting it all together here’s to hoping barger does

 

[arso40]

We have Santander at home!

Would have been nice if we kept horwitz too

Would have been nice if we kept horwitz too

Hes playing rather poorly this season (72 wRC+)

Seems to happen EVERY year.

They spotted Baltimore an 8-0 lead in the second and the O's still couldn't hold them off. Stupid Baltimore.

On the plus side, the Jays are now closer to catching the Yankees (2 games back) than they are to the third Wild Card spot (2.5 games up). That Philly series really sucked, but it's pretty awesome to see them bounce back the way they have the last two games... a dramatic 9th inning comeback and then a blow out.

We would have more money to spend clement can play 2nd barger can play third

 

[Suntouchable13]

I don't understand human psychology. You put Vladdy 3rd in the order and he starts raking right away. I think this game is really 90% mental.

Captain Kirk!!

What has happened to Gausman this year? He’s looked like absolute shit so far.

Getting old?

 

[The Nemesis]

What has happened to Gausman this year? He’s looked like absolute shit so far.

I think he said that in the last couple of months he's had trouble with his splitter and honing it in to throw it where it needs to be. If he throws it too low it's an easy take. Too high and it flattens out and becomes basically a hittable fastball. That coupled with the degradation of his fastball has made him easier for hitters to square up.

 

[PanniniClaus]

This one has been a struggle
