It’s like a Home Series for the Jays, always awesome to see so many show up when they play in Seattle.
Yeah, it's so cool and impressive! I'd love to go to one of those games one day :D
Argos @ Ti-Cats (7-0; 2nd Q) RN for anyone looking for something to watch
I always seem to be travelling when they go on their summer west coast road trip. Going to watch the first few innings but may have to switch to radio and earbuds if the fam is trying to sleep.
Also, I was listening to Blair and Barker earlier, throwing out Nate Pearson as trade bait, and I was like noooooo. Of course it would depend on the return, but I'm interested to see how he develops.
I hear ya. I guess the bullpen is the only place we have any tradeable depth at the major league level though. Espinal maybe. No one else we could trade (without needing to replace at the same time) has much value. I like Nate, and I wouldn't want to trade him for a minor upgrade in the bullpen, I don't think, but I would trade him in a package with some minor league players for a LF who can platoon with/replace Varsho this year or a DH to bump Belt out of the middle of our lineup. I think the future belongs to the Orioles, so I'd like the Jays to try to improve this year, within reason of course :)
They were saying Bellinger
Yup, that could work! I'm excited to get Ryu back and see Chad Green. Manoah... I don't have much confidence in right now, but maybe he'll be serviceable again this year. Hopefully between him and Ryu, one of them makes a serious case for 5th starter (and a good one at that!)
Anyway, it seems like they are primed to make some sort of move. It'll be interesting. I'm quietly hoping for someone who can do serious damage with RISP. That's probably cost us the most this year.
Safe travels 😎
I'm hoping Teo gets a huge applause. First, from Jays fans, and then from Mariners fans thinking they shouldn't be out-clapped
I say

Yusei
Kikuchi!!!
I like a lot of the Mariners' position players. Castillo's cool too. Jays are wearing black stockings tonight. That's unusual for them.
LFG Kikuchi!!!
LOL - what was that sign suggesting? It read "Every bird needs a home. Thank you Cavan Biggio and Santiago Espinal"
