I expect Scherzer to get a no hitter... this team is awful

I think we are being too down these days. A win is a win, but you also think of a loss as a win, then we've won every game this season! Doesn't that feel much better? No.

Are Donaldson and Stroman ever going to play again for the Jays? This is getting ridiculous. The Toronto Blue Jays, where calf strains turn into career-ending injuries.

This may be the worst Jays team in over 20 years. Can we match the suckage level of the 2004 Jays? Stay tuned.

What are the Nationals doing? Testing out if Harper can play CF for the Yankees next year or something? Smh.

Matt Adams probably shouldn't be bunting.

Sanchez getting a kind zone.

LOL, wild pitch. Tie game 3-3.

I also cannot emphasize enough how useful it is to have an umpire that is addicted to making the strike three move, because we've gotten like five Ks on pitches that were unquestionably off the plate.

Lol, poor Juan Soto. That pitch was nowhere close, but he’s going to be told to STFU because he’s 19. I saw the same thing happen to him the other day.

He isn't the first, either. I can understand it because Sanchez's fastball moves so much, but the zone after strike two was basically "didn't threaten to kill the trio around the plate" for the first six innings.

I think Josh is being cautious with the shoulder.
