2024 Toronto Blue Jays Season Thread

[KelVarnsen]

I like Horwitz

2 fantastic starts in a row for Francis

[KelVarnsen]

Jays win!

Thought the Jays might call up Votto for the series against the reds. Get some more butts in seats and have the whole sentimental angle going. But nothing yet.

It could sell some tickets, but I think it sends the wrong message to the rest of the organization if a guy hitting below the Mendoza line in AAA gets called up for sentimentality reasons.

Bowden Francis gets MLB player of the week. Who could've predicted that earlier this season?

[Sylvanfan]

So apparently next Monday Danny Jensen has a chance to play for both teams due to the game from June 26th being suspended. Game was 0-0 in the second with Jansen at bat when it was suspended.

Hopefully Cora puts Jansen in the game just for the novelty of it.

[KelVarnsen]

No doubter from Vladdy

[flamingred89]

Wow. Vladdy. Wow.

Off to a great start this series. I felt he had some poor luck against the cubbies with a lot of liners right at people. So may as well hit em where they ain't.

[KelVarnsen]

Kirk hasn’t been great with the bat but his defence has been solid this season

[KelVarnsen]

Good to see Espy get a solid ovation from the crowd

[flamingred89]

Ump show baby!

Damn, there's a lot to read between the lines there. Maybe it's me but there's a subtle smirk at management not doing what they were supposed to. He loves his teammates, but gaddamn, there should have been some contingency plan for not getting Ohtani. Granted the market kinda sucked but there should've been some trades to move this forward.

Schneider is a shell of a batter

Which is why we all have to be weary of hot starts to a career. MLB teams micro analyze video to find any troubles to exploit over time. This is with every player. Guys have to be able to adjust over a couple seasons.

Jays have some pop in their bats tonight.

[KelVarnsen]

This is fun

[flamingred89]

Luke Maile on the mound for the Reds lol. Throwing some 60mph heat.

[flamingred89]

And he has a 3 up 3 down inning
