Winning the series would be a good thing. Please Jays.
The Jays are giving Jose Berrios a few extra days. Seems like a good move to me. I like the idea of using the extra starter to give guys a breather here and there.
Today’s lineup. No Clement (I didn’t understand them leaving him in yesterday when he was clearly hurting a lot. Yeah he got a hit, but when someone is hurting as much as he was, he’s gotta come out of the game). No Kirk either. He had a pretty nasty bump on his hand last night. Another I thought should have been out of the game.
Hmmmm, there is more on Clement. I thought they told us that Clement had an X-ray after the game when he hurt his hand, and there were no breaks. I get that he wants to play, but someone has to be the grown-up and say ‘no’. I see them saying that he ‘can’t make it worse by playing’. Ummmmm no, he can’t?
The team also says that Kirk had an X-ray, and there is no break.
Vlad plays first base tonight. Please no splits. Schneider gets into a game. I’d like to see a list of who is available in the pen tonight. Asking Lauer to go deep into the game might be a bit much.
