Cold Weather would be a huge problem for a Pitcher like Dickey....

Not a huge shock....

So problems for Dickey seem to be cold weather, Domes, wind, rain, the AL EAST.. do we need a pray for a bunch of optimal series of scenarios to happen for him to string together a winning streak? Cuz if we do, then what's the point of having him?

Yep, he is a warm weather open stadium type of pitcher.....

Knuckleball has more movement in those ideal conditions.

Jays will hope in May onward he will be more consistent

I haven't seen anything like this for a while. The ball isn't even leaving the outfield, Santos was just throwing balls in the dirt left and right.

Hahaha..........7th walk this inning, 4th run for the Twins. I think there's been 1 out for about half an hour now.

Complete implosion.

8th walk this inning. Bases loaded.

Still..........only one out. Unreal. Must be what it feels like to be an Oilers fan.

@SNBarryDavis: I'm sure if Mike McCoy was still around, he'd be warming in the pen right now. #BlueJays

Finally.

6 runs on just one hit. Gross.

That's that. That loss has to sting. What a disaster of an 8th inning.

Ahahahah what a night to be a Twins fan. Possibly the greatest inning of baseball I have ever watched.

IIRC, I think Dickey has a 1.XX era when pitching with the roof closed. But yeah, it does seem like we need a variety of factors to be successful.

I don't think I can stand watching the Jays simply walk games away.

What a play by Edwin!
