  1. While ultimately meaningless, it feels like the Bassitt Is Bullshit Game will go down in Toronto Blue Jays history. At least locally. Very locally.

  2. Our bullpen absolutely blows horrible game from Bassit too 😕😕

    Whatever you do Extend/Expand Vladdy that is all 

    Bichette looked good in his first game back from injury 

  3. People can say the Jays’ bullpen has been bad, but they’ve been averaging 36 strikeouts per 9 innings recently*

    *ok, for their last inning, but it don’t get no more recent than that.

  4. Woof.

    the bullpen needs a complete (well almost) complete rebuild. That was horrid.

    and a loooooong game too.

    but, Bo is back, so it wasn’t all bad.
