Grilli exposed again. He was effective last season, but just looks plain old and predictable now. Leone throwing beach balls out there. Gibbons left him in there for a while to continue letting things get out of hand. Howell unconvincing once again. Another limited bargain bin signing.

Osuna now 1 for 4 in save opportunities. It's early, and he didn't log many innings during Spring Training/WBC, but when does this become a problem?

Probably when it continues to be like that mid-season.

Thole couldn't hit a beach ball

Thole can't even hit a giant plush baseball sold at the Jays store even with a cricket bat.

Wow, you must be lowering the bar to the beginner level so that Thole could advance up past the level. On the other hand, Salty was playing poorly on both sides (offensive and defensive.)

Defensive:

Salty's framing was off this season.

Offensive:

He went 1-for-25 with 16 strikeouts

Looks like the Mendoza line is just too high for either Thole or Salty.

Sanchez returns from injury and leaves the game after just 1 inning...

Improvement being shown from the bullpen. Tepera pitching the game of his life. Osuna bouncing back and converting the save.

♪ FOR THE FIRST TIME IN FOREVER... ♪
The Blue Jays have (finally):

• Won 2 consecutive games
• Won a series

Update on how they are doing (They are in fifth place):

8 wins
17 losses
.320 winning percentage
8.0 games behind first place
4-8 at home
4-9 on the road
5-5 record for last 10 games

It is definitely clear they are getting better

Big test coming up, with a series against the Yankees.

 

[AlbertC]

Trolololol always fun to smack up the Yankees.

 

[Johnny Au]

Three wins in a row!

I hope the Jays continue their winning streak. They need it.

Latos getting roughed up badly today.

coming into today's games

So, they have improved their record....but are further behind! #sports!

As if the DL isn't long enough. Morales could be next on the DL.

Looks like the Jays are in line for a high pick in the 2018 draft.

Looks like the Jays are in line for a high pick in the 2018 draft.

...and a good number of fan favourites would be traded away by trade deadline.
