Yeah. I counted 3 solid hits. The JD RBI single, the Pillar rocket line drive into left and the Travis line drive to right. That's about it, I think.

As much crap as RA Dickey gets (especially from TheAlpineOracle and, yes, some of it's deserved) and he was bad early in the year as per usual. However, Stroman is having too many starts where he's stinking up the joint.

Honestly, 'Stro show' is a guy who should be receiving a lot more venom and crap as he's been such hot garbage and nowhere near enough good this year.

It's funny that it does seem like the Jays need to play smash ball to win.

Didn't see that coming. Not a huge fan of his offensively for a while now.

Also not really sure where this signing came from. 1st base is probably our weakest offensive position right now, so we lock it up long term?

Collabello is close to being able to return so maybe its a message to him. I don't understand it either but maybe he is a really good leader in he locker room.

Thats not funny. Dont even joke about it.

And Smoak signed for about 2 mill less per season than the MLB avg for first baseman, weird.

If Gregg Zaun likes the signing, then I'll go ahead and like it too.

Not really. A veteran MLBer, whose insight is good imo. Trusting a professionals' opinion seems pretty logical actually.
