And someone was whining that we released the .668 OPS Otto Lopez.

Edwards should have tagged on that play, knowing that Varsho was going to catch that.
Not sure why he went halfway.

Never doubted ‘em

But still fire Schneider for putting everyone through that

I don't think he was "available" today - the same with Yariel.

But once you get to the 12th what choice do you have?

Brendon Little’s zone% is like 35-36%. If I was hitting, I think I’d be up there banking on him throwing 4 balls before he throws 3 strikes.

Call Fisher back up and send Fluharty down. An idiotic decision to send down Fisher after being a solid reliever throughout the year. As this game shows, this team needs to do what it takes to keep Bichette in the fold long-term.

It will not be a good look to simply lose Bo, and replace him with Gimenez at SS. Gimenez's bat is nowhere near the level of Bichette, and this team will suffer dramatically in 2026 if that is the case.

So...does Vladdy play tomorrow?

Also...so odd to have Davis not play either game

Return to Toronto Blue Jays
