Fingers crossed that he can at least go 5 innings and be halfway decent. Hope that is not too much to ask for a guy being paid 16 million this year.

Bottom third of the order is just so bad. Please call up Moreno.

Moreno is not actually off to a good start. Would be dumb to call him up if he’s not ready.

Fair, I was looking at the update from April 18th, looks like he's struggled since then.

Bo's thing of hitting hard liners is finally paying off with actual hits. He's going to be approaching a league-average OPS in short order, heh.

Remember, he didn’t really have a spring training. And obviously, he missed so much time last year. Hopefully, he’s just taking a little bit to find his rhythm.

Big hits with RISP are not our thing this year.

Should normalize. Our BABIP with RISP at the moment is below .200, more than 100 points lower than our BABIP otherwise.

No idea why Kirk isn't playing today against a LHP.

Jays would benefit so much by robot umpires. Just embarrassing umpiring in these games.

Kikuchi pitching to Judge for a 3rd time seems like a game changing mistake

Luckily, what the bad umpiring taketh, it sometimes giveth back.
