He’s probably going to used to just eat some innings until Spencer Turnbull is more stretched out.

So far this season I think it's reasonable to assume I'd have done better than Atkins. Imagine how things could be if they had someone actually good.

Jays facing a guy who is making his second career start. One hit shutout. Checks out.

Definitely takes a lot to get a catcher to be willing to come out of the game in the 9th. Hopefully it is more of an acute pain issue than something more serious.

I think we haven't seen the best of kirks. He regressed last couple years. This contract looks ok

Until he takes his conditioning seriously, I think this is what he is.

I am less optimistic about Kirk’s future - catching is really physical (imagine doing that many squats several times a week) and it’s likely going to catch up with his joints as he ages. He is a great contact hitter with an exceptional understanding of the strike zone but the Jays shouldn’t be reliant on his production IMO.

The encouraging thing about Kirk is his Hard Hit and Line drive percentages are way up. As we know anything on the ground is an automatic out, or worse, so if he can keep those numbers up he'll be more than productive for this team. Especially with the way he's throwing out baserunners this year.

The skills are there. The tools are there. The tool box is a ####ing mess.

Vlad has had some #### luck this series. Rockets to the outfield right at fielders.
