Walking in a run almost always equates to a loss. Need something fortunate to happen here.

Every player has ups and downs. No need to panic. Remember last year when people couldn't trade Bichette fast enough?

It's very early, obviously, but I feel like there is a strong correlation between good vs bad starts, and whether Jansen or Kirk is behind the plate.

He put himself in the position where a blooper would hurt them, and there it is

Blue Jays must lead the league in balls hit just out of the reach of the OF and the INF.

Berrios and Kikuchi pitch the lights out.

So naturally Manoah struggles.

Not loving the Wish version of Manoah that we’ve gotten this season.

The Jays hitters are going to try to bail him out. Let’s do this!

Kirk I think is a good catcher but he also missed a bunch of time in spring training and that didn’t help.

I also think Manoah had never had good conditioning and relied on time to rest between pitches. He doesn’t have easy velocity like Gausman or Kikuchi so I think the reduced time hurts him.

Doesn’t seem like much movement from Manoah so far. He’s a big guy, and while he hasn’t looked out of shape as much as Kirk, you have to think both of them should focus on that a bit more. I’m sure with him it’s just calming down.

Wasn't a problem last year. Now he struggles for a couple of starts and suddenly he's fat?

He’s a bit hefty. Perhaps his body can handle it but just like everyone critiqued Vlad’s conditioning, why can’t his be commented on? Especially with the quick pitch clock, conditioning is important.

Alright, a good inning from Manoah, and now the top of the order - time to pull this game back into reach.
