Ray
Berrios
Matz
Manoah

for sure. And ya, I think he has a really short leash in the bullpen.

Feels like we are back in August here

[Samonadreau]

Still no one out

[flamingred89]

I feel bad for Stripling. Coming off the IL and having to clean up Ryu’s #### the last 2 outings.

[Mass_nerder]

Just get out of the inning.
Thankfully it's still early with lots of time to get back into this.

Ryu's stuff doesn't allow him to have any room for error. When he is off...he gets hammered. He can't afford to not be at the top of his game.

Ray can grind through a tough start and Manoah has done the same thing.

[ben voyonsdonc]

Vlad is pretty good.

[savemedrzaius]

Another rocket from Vladdy!

[Samonadreau]

Love this team, never out of it.

[savemedrzaius]

Jays pitchers just throwing BP pitches. Stripling does not look good.

[flamingred89]

The out of town not looking great so far. This is going to be a heck of a ride coming down the stretch...All I know is I don’t want Ryu, and his near 6 ERA since June, anywhere near this team in the next 15 games.

Yep, I'd be fine with either skipping his start or giving it to Stripling from the outset and see if he can do better not coming in to an already-Ryu-lit dumpster fire.

Guy has legit laid to massive eggs against bottom feeders.

[savemedrzaius]

This guy pitching for the Twins reminds me of Stro. His mannerisms and fire.

[Roof-Daddy]

The Jays suck and Ryu is our best pitcher, now that the Jays are good he's the weakest link. Brutal irony.

Red Sox and Yankees are winning huge right now. Jays will be out of a playoff spot by the end of the night.

[Ducay]

Hyun-Jin Poo

Only laughing matter is how much we're paying that guy to lose us games of late.

[bluejays]

I don't know what's wrong with Ryu but the cliche stands where these are the games you have to win. He wasn't the only contributor - the bats haven't been knocking them in higher pressure situations. Nothing to do but hope this is just one game and tomorrow they'll get back on track.

It's sad that I have as much trust in him as I did with someone like Roark. The guy is a liability out there right now and can't expect the team to bail him out every night.

Montoyo needs to consider skipping his next start. Wins are more important right now than hurting his feelings.

[Roof-Daddy]

Let's just hope the other 4 starters hold together.

Still going to need close to a 10-5 record to get in IMO so losing anymore games in this series is not a good idea with 3 games at the trop next.

They need to roll 5 starters to keep everyone fresh and healthy.... that said the 5th doesnt have to be Ryu.

[Karl]

Ryu was poo and Jays bats got pull happy. Can't have 3/4 of the bats go back to wild overswing mode if they want to sustain any hitting/RBI success.
