But I still want to see the average game get down to two hours. Because, let's be honest, two hours of baseball is enough. Am I right? I don't think it will get there. Commercial breaks. No way owners and TV executives are giving that up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just chatting it up. Especially, if it’s a gorgeous day. It's great when you're at the game but sucks for watching on TV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shiznak Posted April 1 Share Posted April 1 Lol, it’s amazing that the Jays have no hits in this game so far, but have left 7 men on base. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

van_ws Posted April 2 Share Posted April 2 I know it's early but Jays pitching has not been good at all save for yesterday. Bassitt looks terrible but hopefully it is just early season rust and adjustments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilbur Posted April 3 Share Posted April 3 I haven't been able to watch the last 2 games, but is Vladdy getting many pitches to hit? I'm wondering if there is enough power in the line up now.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

van_ws Posted April 4 Share Posted April 4 Season started a few games ago boys. Hello, wake up? Another lackluster game so far. Can't score, pitching sucks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RUPERTKBD Posted April 5 Share Posted April 5 Well, that was more like it..... They're still stranding more runners that I'd like, but Varsho hit an opposite field dinger (something Arden Zwelling said he didn't do all of last season) and most importantly, Yusei Kikuchi threw 5 solid innings and was backed up by a solid bullpen effort from Garcia, Mayza, Swanson and Romano. Mayza was especially impressive, striking out all four batters he faced. Now, before we get ahead of ourselves, this was against a light hitting Royals lineup, but there were a lot of positives. Need to back this game up with a bounce back start from Manoah.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RUPERTKBD Posted April 6 Share Posted April 6 Jays looking much better today....a couple more dingers, a solid outing from Gausman and Anthony Bass cleaned up a bit of a mess in the bottom of seven.... ....but man, are Belt and Jansen dragging down the bottom half of the order....

I still think Pete Walker isn't doing the staff any favours. Pretty surprised he managed to stay after last season; it was a perfect opportunity to upgrade and get a fresh start after the change of managers.

I get what Schneider was thinking....you'd like TR to eat some innings, so you don't have to use the high leverage guys. This time it didn't work out, but at least Bass and Garcia were able to limit the damage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
