IKF saved a...double...there I guess?
Dan Elvis (@danelvis1.bsky.social) reply parent
Fortunately we avoided this
Dan Elvis (@danelvis1.bsky.social) reply parent
I figured 15 would make it comfortable
Dan Elvis (@danelvis1.bsky.social)
So Kirk is up. If he makes the 3rd out and Hoffman holds the Reds to 2 runs, is Kirk the ghost runner to start the 10th?

Used to see all the advertising flyers posted up all over Hamilton. Not the biggest secret
Dan Elvis (@danelvis1.bsky.social)
Starter gets us two unquality innings. Exactly what the doctor didn't order. Off season, may need to find a taker for Berrios. He's had a pretty bad stretch of not very good.
Dan Elvis (@danelvis1.bsky.social)
Well, that's 2 innings in the books! ๐
Dan Elvis (@danelvis1.bsky.social)
Hoffman being replaced by the guy who should have started the inning. Fucking Schneider & Walker.
Dan Elvis (@danelvis1.bsky.social) reply parent
Not really
Dan Elvis (@danelvis1.bsky.social)
What else did anyone think was going to happen bringing Hoffman in?
Dan Elvis (@danelvis1.bsky.social)
Schneider managing like he has a 12 man Pen again.

Dan Elvis (@danelvis1.bsky.social) reply parent
Needs to bat 10th in the order for a few games. Pretty much a cardboard cutout these days.
Dan Elvis (@danelvis1.bsky.social)
Quality at bat there Vladdy. ๐
Dan Elvis (@danelvis1.bsky.social) reply parent
He does. Seems like the guy subbing for the regular person but who isn't very good at it. Makes Brad Faye look good though...speaking of subs....

How is Roy Halladay still signing jerseys? ๐ค

I muted him. He sucks

The Blue Jays are attempting to set a record for times going down by 3 runs and still not winning.
Dan Elvis (@danelvis1.bsky.social)
Twins have 3 homers. Jays...have finally turned their batting order over.
Dan Elvis (@danelvis1.bsky.social) reply parent
Seems appropriate that they swapped teams.
Dan Elvis (@danelvis1.bsky.social)
Absolute crap Hoffman
Dan Elvis (@danelvis1.bsky.social)
So Hoffman decided to be horseshit tonight Sweet
Dan Elvis (@danelvis1.bsky.social) reply parent
I understand he's known as the Milton Berle of baseball...and it's not because he's a funny guy.
Dan Elvis (@danelvis1.bsky.social)
These Pitchcom delays are ridiculous. Just call pitches if it doesn't work. Happens WAY too often.
Dan Elvis (@danelvis1.bsky.social) reply parent
Sorry...8-15. Let's not make it worse than it is.
Dan Elvis (@danelvis1.bsky.social)
The Jays record on Sundays falls to 7-15 this season. Not sure if that's their worst day of the week, but it does seem as though they're less inspired on Sundays for some reason.
Dan Elvis (@danelvis1.bsky.social) reply parent
It was a waste. If Vladdy still can't play defense, they could have put him on the IL retroactively. Now the calendar has been reset.
Dan Elvis (@danelvis1.bsky.social)
Jays with their, 'Their pitcher is much too awesome and powerful for us.' offense today.
Dan Elvis (@danelvis1.bsky.social) reply parent
Coke, Mountain Dew or Dr. Pepper

Blue Jays win!!! Never in doubt!!! (I'm such a liar!)
Dan Elvis (@danelvis1.bsky.social)
The pretend productive out for Barger.
Dan Elvis (@danelvis1.bsky.social)
Barger to lead off ๐ฌ
Dan Elvis (@danelvis1.bsky.social)
Going to the 12th. Who pitches for the Jays?
Dan Elvis (@danelvis1.bsky.social)
Jays don't seem to want to win this one. The Marlins seem like a bunch of eager little puppies

I'm looking forward to his autobiography - You Can't Spell 'Closer' Without 'Loser'
Dan Elvis (@danelvis1.bsky.social) reply parent
Will he be Seranthony or Just Plain Tony?
Dan Elvis (@danelvis1.bsky.social)
Definitely not impressed with Varland.
Dan Elvis (@danelvis1.bsky.social) reply parent
George: We'll start at the bottom and work our way up! Vladdy: We'll start at the top and work our way down! George: Don't be ridiculous. Vladdy: Or ridiculous be don't. George: That doesn't even make sense. Jose: I'm getting chicken. Anyone want some?
Dan Elvis (@danelvis1.bsky.social) reply parent
They gotta keep refreshing the George and Vladdy Show, get them some new material. Maybe a commercial with Jose Bautista

Caissie gonna have to wait at least one more AB...lol Great catch Schneider!
Dan Elvis (@danelvis1.bsky.social)
Jays got lucky too. Their pitching options were down to Tommy Nance and Buddy Kennedy. ๐

Winning pitcher...Jeff (Chad Green) Hoffman

Like left over cardboard cutouts from Covid.
Dan Elvis (@danelvis1.bsky.social)
Gotta say...the Rockies are terrible.
Dan Elvis (@danelvis1.bsky.social)
Barger might not be a 3rd baseman if the last couple of games are any indication
Dan Elvis (@danelvis1.bsky.social)
Dang...Loperfido! ๐ฎ
Dan Elvis (@danelvis1.bsky.social)
End of the day, Jays are still 3 games up on Boston...but the last 7 games have exposed a lot of issues, especially pitching. Dominguez looked like Chad Green today, just missing the homers.
Dan Elvis (@danelvis1.bsky.social)
Is this pitcher the first The Fourth in MLB history? ๐ค
Dan Elvis (@danelvis1.bsky.social)
Awesome of FOX to put up a graphic of the 4 hottest teams, which includes the Blue Jays and mention all...but the Blue Jays. Dicks.
Dan Elvis (@danelvis1.bsky.social)
Ludicrous that they're playing an MLB game at a race track in the pouring rain, but, hey, tons o fun y'all.
Dan Elvis (@danelvis1.bsky.social) reply parent
A win they definitely needed for sure. One where they didn't have to score 9 runs to win. Tough pitcher tomorrow in Lugo though.
Dan Elvis (@danelvis1.bsky.social) reply parent
Tomorrow twice as many! ๐
Dan Elvis (@danelvis1.bsky.social) reply parent
I was going to say something like Three Inch Straw for Myles Straw, but I couldn't think of anything good. ๐
Dan Elvis (@danelvis1.bsky.social)
The Toronto Blue Jays have now won two of their last three games! ๐
Dan Elvis (@danelvis1.bsky.social) reply parent
The one that gets key hits once or twice a game? He disappeared about a week or ten days ago.
Dan Elvis (@danelvis1.bsky.social)
Up 2 with Hoffman coming in. Cautiously optimistic???
Dan Elvis (@danelvis1.bsky.social) reply parent
Exactly.
Dan Elvis (@danelvis1.bsky.social)
Too much bunting at the wrong time
Dan Elvis (@danelvis1.bsky.social)
Just glad they didn't bring out the stupid jacket for that insignificant home run.
Dan Elvis (@danelvis1.bsky.social)
It was still winnable til this inning. Wait a minute! No, it wasn't!!! Jays pitching continues to be dreadful...except the new guy of course.
Dan Elvis (@danelvis1.bsky.social)
"Maybe we should take Fluharty out .." Schneider: Just one more batter... "He's really sucking!" Schneider: One more... "He just gave up two homers!" Schneider: Any minute now... (Fluharty walks Whitt Jr.) Schneider: Well that unexpectedly sucked, didn't it? (Walks to mound)

Dan Elvis (@danelvis1.bsky.social)
This bullpen of ours has been full of surprises and disappointments. I look at Chad Green the same as Tim Mayza last year. Great the season before, can't get guys out the next year. It's the cruel nature of the business and I can only wish Chad well and hope he gets it sorted out. Right move though
Dan Elvis (@danelvis1.bsky.social)
Be nice if we could score off of Mr. 7.17 ERA
Dan Elvis (@danelvis1.bsky.social) reply parent
Yep! That's when a game that was still winnable took a tragic turn.
Dan Elvis (@danelvis1.bsky.social) reply parent
Now 3...it's a trend.
Dan Elvis (@danelvis1.bsky.social)
Loperfido cuts the deficit to 10 with a home run. Keep the line moving or some such.
Dan Elvis (@danelvis1.bsky.social) reply parent
I think yesterday also. I think the bottom of the 8th was the only one.
Dan Elvis (@danelvis1.bsky.social)
Certainly the roster move between games could also be the dfa of Homers Green.
Dan Elvis (@danelvis1.bsky.social) reply parent
Pitching. It can be your best friend or your worst enemy. It's been absolutely awful since the 8th inning Sunday.
Dan Elvis (@danelvis1.bsky.social)
Who is this team and what have they done with the Blue Jays? Truthfully, brutal pitching and missing Kirk and Springer shortening the offense. I've changed my mind about the trade deadline. Another bat is definitely needed.
Dan Elvis (@danelvis1.bsky.social) reply parent
Second giveaway they've had for him. Like he gets a giveaway day for every 10 games played or something.
Dan Elvis (@danelvis1.bsky.social) reply parent
Yet, had they stood there without reacting and just let the camera pass by, none of this would have happened to the poor little guy.
Dan Elvis (@danelvis1.bsky.social)
The Blue Jays look like the worst team in baseball tonight. Nothing going right apart from the 3 run inning that ultimately meant nothing
Dan Elvis (@danelvis1.bsky.social)
Four run inning!
Dan Elvis (@danelvis1.bsky.social)
It all started with a walk to Myles Straw....๐
Dan Elvis (@danelvis1.bsky.social)
Bringing in Bruihl was a middle finger to the Chad Green haters, "You really thought Chad was the worst we have? We'll show you!"
Dan Elvis (@danelvis1.bsky.social)
If Eric Swanson and Zach Pop had a kid together, it would be Chad Green.
Dan Elvis (@danelvis1.bsky.social)
Chad Green...proving again that pure dreck is still, in fact, dreck.
Dan Elvis (@danelvis1.bsky.social)
Bo hitting, pretty much a day off for everyone else. Max deserved a better fate.
Dan Elvis (@danelvis1.bsky.social)
Well pitched game by Max. Assuming the thumb isn't an issue if he's able to go deeper in games and occasionally punch Eric Lauer in the mouth. ๐
Dan Elvis (@danelvis1.bsky.social) reply parent
That was way over analyzed by Dan and Joe anyway. All the catcher would have had to do is step on the plate. 4 runners = force play.
