I like Vladdy in the 2 hole. Have him focus more on hitting line drives and getting on base rather than try to hit bombs. Bichette is an excellent hitter with runners on and Turner is built for cleanup.

If we can see second half Biggio from last year. Having him in the 9 hole will be deadly. Big question marks around IKF, Kirk, and Varsho's production though.

As much as it sucks to start the season at the Trop. Atleast they're inside and will play ball today. A couple postponed games already. That would be devastating.

The Trop is such a ugly dump of a stadium

Jays should start a journeyman on opening day.

They 100% have an opening day pitcher curse

I’d like to see an opening game Bullpen day.

Just shirk convention at every possible turn this season.

We ultimately know who the Blue Jays are and how the season will go.

His stuff has been pretty good today. Even on the at bat from the home run he was ahead in the count and the guy made a good swing on a pitch that wasn't in a terrible spot.

I think I can throw harder to second than Kirk.

Here comes that Zac Eflin perfect game. You know the soft tossing guy with a career 4.5 ERA. #### the Rays and #### the Trop

With our Jays crap luck at the Trop it could've been Zac Efron pitching here and we'd still get nothing off them.
