Chatwood was pitching so damn well to begin the season that I thought the Jays had a found a diamond in the rough again. It looks like he might be too emotional to be a consistent reliever.
Just bad game management for a double header. The Jays have 3 decent relievers healthy right now. Well 2 after today with Chatwood stinking up the joint. And they decided to blow Dolis and Romano in the early game when they didn't give their starter a chance to go the distance for them. Again, I understand that the 3rd time through the order is a "thing" right now, but at some point these managers have to stop taking analytics as absolutes and manage the game as they see it.
Still won the series which is a positive but with the Rays and RedSox going on massive heaters the Jays need to go on a couple of their own to make up some ground.
But how ####ing fun are the bats? Just absolutely destroying baseballs.
