I bet Singer is steaming mad after that BWJ bonehead play.

In what world is that a hit and not an error on BWJ? MLB score keeping is a joke.

Brady is tipping his slider

When you insist on only throwing two pitches, it isn't hard to tip your pitches.

It literally becomes picking up FB spin vs. breaking ball spin.

I don't know what they're doing with the guy. He made some steps forward last year just showing it was a viable pitch that had to be considered.

But this year? He's pretty much throwing the two-seamer and slider and throwing them almost exclusively down and away.

It's a super weird approach and I don't get it. I can't imagine there's real data that supports this approach.

Too many defense errors with this team. Both physical and mental. That's the most frustrating thing.

Brett Veach was at the Jays/Marlins game today in Miami with a Jays shirt on. Just more evidence that he is an intelligent person.

Actually probably not...they'll probably deal half that bullpen and then they'll be even worse.
