Looks like we got all we're gonna get from McClanahan. Just gotta pray we can get to their reliever in the 7th, 8th or 9th.

Manoah is getting lucky on a few fly balls getting close to being homeruns in RF

At which part of the season would you want to see Varsho starting against lefty starter and see how he does?

Jays had the perfect opportunity 1st inning when McClanahan had trouble, couldn't take more advantage, it's too bad. Now he's dealing

McClanahan is gonna go at least 7 by the looks of it. Thats only gonna give us 6 out to score some runs.

He's been used against LHP this year. Also has a .333/.381/.333 line so far against them, which isn't terrible.

Makes sense to give him a day off against the best LHP in MLB though.

Needed Manoah to look like his 2021-22 self and he wasn't good enough. Especially with Shane on the mound.

I guess so we can watch him throw garbage sliders down the middle for 3 run HRs to end the game.

Should've been pulled after the first base hit
