I think we need to see more of White before anything like that happens.

That might be the only option but I don't really like Strip as a four and I don't know if I like White as a long term fifth guy. I can't believe that we don't have a single starting pitcher at any level of our organization that looks like a decent short term legitimate starter. That is a big failing of management.

The Blue Jays are signing outfielder Jackie Bradley Jr., reports Ezekiel Telemaco of WEEI. Chris Cotillo of MassLive confirmed the deal on Twitter, reporting that it’s a major league deal.

Looks to have also been picked up by TSN. Sounds legit.

Bradley is an improvement on Zimmer - not a guy that can hit much anymore but, unlike Zimmer, he doesn’t look utterly terrified at the plate.

I fear Springer's injury is worse than we think. Bradley is more insurance.

more likely they're just getting Zimmer off the roster.

Yep. that's my thought as well. It could be some sort of damage to his elbow that requires off season surgery.

Who knows if he can continue....

Bichette was either going to ground into a DP with nobody on or hit a homer.

He chose homer.

With Gardner out of the league it appears Mountcastle is going to be the new destroyer of Jays in the division.

Man, the Orioles are on a roll - everything is going their way right now. Chapman hammered that, but nothing.

Pretty sure that ball was in Merrifield's glove, and a simple no-overturn would have saved 2 runs.

Double plays every time the Jays get someone on base, including last night in the 6th(?) with 2 guys on, when Hernandez hammered it, but right at the 3rd baseman.

They just can't get anything going.
