^Oh, I had a real soft spot for Juan Guzman back in the day. Nice to see his name again.

He's cooked. He's always flirted with danger when pitching, getting one or two base runners on, but he used to lock in and deal filth when it happened. He's lost that filth.

Why give him anything to hit and why challenge that?

I never want to see Barnes in extra innings ever again. Seems crazy to me that they left Yimi and Hoffman on the bench in that situation - must have felt they couldnt risk it because that's the definition of a high leverage situation.

But I have to think the goat is Roden. He had a terrible at bat with the bases loaded earlier in the game, taking big huge hacks at breaking pitches way out of the zone. Then in extra innings (bottom 10th) runner on 3rd with 1 out getting the ball to the outfield wins the game and he pops it up. 0 for 5 is one thing but the bases loaded especially was a bad at-bat.

Hopefully they can win the series tomorrow.

Bo’s at bat in extras was even worse than Roden’s. You need your big guys to deliver when the opportunity arises and he choked hard.

Neither Yimi or Hoffman were available yesterday. At the end of the day this hangs on the offense. Multiple chances to win it with good fundamental hitting and just flailed away. During the broadcast they showed that the Jays are the best in the league at cashing those types of runs in. Yesterday they died by that sword and once again got out homered. I don’t think they even got a ball to the warning track.

It’s great their fundamentals are better, that’s a huge step for this club but you are gonna need to put some balls in the seats eventually.

Said that poorly - I understand neither were available otherwise they would have pitched. I'm just surprised neither were available. It would have been 2 days in a row but still. Long season I suppose.

I definitely agree it hangs on the offense - if they push a couple more runs across you never get to extras. Or if you had a bigger lead yesterday they could have used the lower leverage guys then. Or if thry managed to push the runner from second across in the 10th or 11th after Rodriguez put up zeros starting with a runner on second.

Really the pitching has been good. Bullpen ERA is 12th in the majors even with Barnes' 9.00 ERA in there (8 earned runs in 8 innings). And the SP have the 4th best ERA in the majors. A little more pop and they could be division/pennant winners.

The Easton Lucas story was fun for a week. But he's a total pumpkin again.
