I didn't watch the game yet probably go watch highlights soon, but just looked and it was 4-0 shutout nice, and yeah looks like Manoah pitched. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks! Manoah pitched 7 and I think only gave up two hits. Springer has to homers. The bull pen was great, even if only two innings. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s always great to be back home and the crowd is always electric. Hoping the Raptors can return back home too also 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks genuinely happy to be in T.O., but isn't overawed by the experience. Displays a lot of confidence in his abilities, without sounding cocky about it. The kid could be a real gem.....I just hope the Raps don't end up regretting passing on Suggs.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RUPERTKBD Posted August 1, 2021 Share Posted August 1, 2021 As far as the Jays go, I like what the they did at the trade deadline. I'm just slightly disappointed that they weren't able to land a left handed power bat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still 61 games to go, so I think they can get into the play offs, but that week or so could make a difference. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChuckNORRIS4Cup Posted August 1, 2021 Share Posted August 1, 2021 Berrios he looked decent, I was expecting his fastball to be around the 97-98 range but seemed like it was 94-95 decent but I expected or thought it was harder thrown but I guess not. As mentioned above his curveball is dirty, although I'd like to see him pitch that pitch a little lower it did seem to hang up in the middle of the zone a few times, luckily it's so dirty it's harder to hit, but once teams get the scouting report they will eventually sit back and wait on it if it's going to continue hang in the middle of the zone, but overall good outing for his first one as a Jay, and a big win good to see.

Wilbur Posted August 1, 2021 Share Posted August 1, 2021 Seattle blew a late lead to Texas so the Jays will gain on at least 2 teams (assuming both the Red Sox and Rays find a way to both win the same game) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RUPERTKBD Posted August 1, 2021 Share Posted August 1, 2021 Cool story out of Chicago.... With the Cubbies trading pretty much everybody away at the deadline, they had give playing time to players who might not normally be starting for an MLB club. One guy pressed into a starting role is a 30 year old journeyman named Raphael Ortega. Ortega has played for 4 MLB teams and over the course of 447 career at bats had hit a total of 4 HRs... He just hit his 4th HR in the past two days playing on the North Side: https://www.bleedcubbieblue.com/2021/8/1/22604879/cubs-nationals-recap-rafael-ortega-adbert-alzolay-mlb-scores 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChuckNORRIS4Cup Posted August 2, 2021 Share Posted August 2, 2021 (edited) I found this thing on youtube yesterday it was so cool, from back in 1959 it was a weekly Home Run Derby show they had with certain players from almost every team, 2 hitters, 9 innings, 3 outs an inning, and who can hit the most home runs winner moves on for the following week matchup. Check out the first episode Mickey Mantle vs Willie Mays. Edited August 2, 2021 by ChuckNORRIS4Cup 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
