Amazing game for Varsho. Him and Berrios carried the respective side of the team.

Man is it ever fun watching the Jays roll out this rotation day after day.

Hopefully they can keep it going for a long time. Just quality start after quality start from these guys and the best of the bunch hasn't even gotten fully up to speed yet.

It's really too bad they couldn't make a trade for just one more quality bat.

Sometimes you watch your own team too much so familiarity breads contempt.

I thought I was frustrated with the Jays bats. Yesterday afternoon since the Jays played in the evening I watched the Rays vs. Yankees. 0-0 game into the 10th inning and these are supposedly the top teams the Jays need to compete with in the division. Yankees bats were useless and Tampa kept making really dumb baserunning / horrible at bats with RISP. By the time it came around to the Jays game I felt like I was watching the 2015 team comparatively.

No game changer in the lineup. You could say Vladdy but we are on year three of him not being that guy. 30-90 is good but not in that game changer category. Unfortunately for the Jays the only real positions to upgrade are 3rd and 2nd unless they do something big.

Pitching and timely hitting. I think we will see a lot of these games this year. Berrios was awesome again. What a start to the season. Might be schnieder's best move as manager. Pulling Berrios and pissing him off. Man is on a mission.

There were two impact bats out there this offseason. Soto who we couldn’t match Yankees offer and Ohtani which well we know how that went. Not really a good third option. Technically I suppose Bellanger or Chapman were that but I’m glad they passed there.

Why is Vogelbach on the roster? He never plays.
