How about we don't ground into a double play this inning. You know, just to keep things interesting...

Someone tell me how that was a called strike 3 on Springer? That pitch was below his knees. This umpire is horrible!

This strikezone is so random. He's calling balls as strikes and strikes as balls. Does he have a magic 8-ball in his pocket that's helping him out?

Nice to see Murphy back and some reinforcements in the bullpen. Still need another arm or two in that bullpen, if we are to make a push for that wild card spot.

Wow a Seattle pitcher was just kicked out of a game for using a sticky substance.

Despite my tireless defense of Joe Panik, I think the writing's on the wall for him with the Blue Jays. Espinal is just the better overall player right now, and Panik's left-handedness doesn't compensate enough for that. Also, we should probably have a look at Kevin Smith before the year is out.

I think Tabby is drunk.

I just heard him describe Bo Bichette as a “tough player to strike out”, ostensibly due to his wild swings. Bo has 75 K’s.

He’s only striking out 15.8% of the time in June. His strikeouts have steadily dropped from April to May to June. And at this point in time his K% is better than average. 65th percentile.

This Baltimore team is abysmal. Should have been a sweep and a 9 game winning streak. I'll take 3 out of 4. Good series win. Now let's go for the next one!

Lateral Quicks keep it going buddy.

He also isn't alone. There has been a lot of talk here about the Jays' bad approaches, swinging for the fences, etc. The team has the second-best K rate in baseball.
