Ha was thinking that same exact thing. His ####ty season and attitude are a plague on this team right now.

I also stupidity caught myself thinking about playoff chances after the 6 game win streak. Minnesota is in a nosedive right now and the Jays are 8 games back and playing the Twins this weekend. But then the last 2 games happened and the real Jays showed up again. Yesterday was a very winnable game but they shot themselves in the foot with terrible baserunning. And tonight was a night that we've seen all to often this season.

Jays should claim him. He would objectively improve the bullpen. It's not like you have to give the prospect back...

I mean, maybe they don't care about the results this season at all, but I think Richards would be a good guy to have next year and claiming him now probably makes signing him for next year more likely.

Hopefully tonight he can do better than a no hitter.

A perfect game.

Bunting into a triple play would be a very Jays thing to do

Bowden Francis' career arc from fringe MLB inning eater to best pitcher in the game has been unexpected.

Yeah. His last four starts totals are 29.0 innings, 6 hits, 2 earned runs

If the Jays get 2nd-half-versions of Vladdy and Francis next year they could be a good team.

Didn’t have Francis becoming Dave Steib on my 2024 bingo card.

Steib had a 4 game stretch in his last two games of ‘88 and his first two games of ‘89 with 35 innings, 7 hits, and one run.
