I'm pretty sure Matty D is calling the jays game right now. since when has he been doing baseball?

Devlin have it all.

Filled in on FOX a couple years back. Weird to hear his delayed reaction type broadcasting for baseball, but he's done a decent job at the fundamental aspects of baseball broadcasting thus far.

I'm actually liking it. It's not as boring...but maybe im just a raps homer.

Matty D seems like a natural calling baseball. Its amazing how good he is when he
isnt being dragged down by Leo, Jack, Sherm and the guys in the truck.

I wasn't a fan initially but Devlin has grown on me.

Matty D = Mr. Everywhere

His pace is much better suited to baseball.

Matty D is already pronouncing names better than Buck Martinez would.

Overtime!

I think he fills in for CFL games too on TSN. This guy is Mr.Everywhere

It's so weird how Devlin is awful when calling Raps games yet doing everything else he's like the best in the business

Rod Black was doing tennis, curling and pretty much everything so it's not really a surprise that they call other sports.

I think he did wrestling for the Olympics last year as well.

We should definitely capitalize and sell high. He may even even fetch a declining Marv Albert right now.

Devlin is a pro. I enjoy how he calls the Raptors too, I think he gets way too much hate around here.

That's a six footer out there, Matt.

perhaps Devlin will be doing some hockey broadcasting one day.......lol

Anyway, I think Devlin should move on to do other stuff, we need to bring back the Swirsk.

He was very good during the playoffs calling games for TNT this year as well. I think when he doesn't have to fill time with inane crap for a losing team and can just call basketball for a half-decent team, he'll win over most of his critics.

He's only a problem on Raptor broadcasts because Jack pours something in his coffee and listening to Leo can make anyone go crazy.
