Schneider hits a home run and we’re up 1-0. I step away from the TV for a couple of minutes and come back and the Jays are up 5-1. Who are these guys?

Springer, Vlad, Bichette, Barger, Kirk stacked together is constant threat. Inject some more power with Santander and Varsho - this could be one of the better offenses in the AL. Especially if Vlad can turn it on

As you say that vlad can’t cash home a runner from 3rd with 1 out.

It sucks that Guerrero isn’t who he was last year because that would really take us to the next level

Vlad playing superstar level (.950+ OPS) is what separates this team from frontline contenders Phillies, Dodgers, Astros.

Good news is Vlad is capable (and has a history) of turning it on late in the season.

Vlad has been this player we are seeing this year for the significant majority of his career.

He’s definitely capable of going on a power streak in the 2nd half but I’m honestly expecting more of the same (a very good but not great hitter).

And stupid baserunning on a play directly in front of him that costs them an out and probably a run; unfortunately that’s also what we’ve come to expect out of him.

Can they call the game? How many innings do you need to play before they decide to just end it.

They can but they won’t. This doesn’t look like it will last very long.

Unfortunate though because that means Bassitt will be out of the game and we will have to rely on the pen to get through the last 3 innings (which probably means high leverage guys).

The system is lingering in the area, maybe we’ve got a shot at them calling this instead of midnight baseball.
