@CentreIce19 @MLBFanSupport Have the same. Ugh. Minnesota commentary is so boring!

@MLBFanSupport Is the Sportsnet feed not available for the Blue Jays game today? It’s not showing as an option on any of my devices.

I used to only watch the Blue Jays to see Kazuma Okamoto, but lately, I’ve noticed I get a bit grumpy whenever the team loses. I think I’m officially becoming a fan!
Since I’ve been so focused on Okamoto, I have a few mysteries I need help solving:
• Mystery No.1: I saw a guy with a mustache at 2B one day, then someone who looked just like him made a diving catch in LF the next day. Are they the same person?
• Mystery No.2: Someone fractured their toe but was back running in less than a month. Is he a superhuman?
• Mystery No.3: I haven't seen the manager in a uniform yet. Is that guy actually the manager, or am I being pranked?
• Mystery No.4: A "cuddly" player who was incredibly fast suddenly vanished. Where did he go?
I’ve already found the reporter who gets drenched in ice water by Vlad Jr., but I need more info! Which accounts should I follow to keep up with the team?

@KeeganMatheson Silver of a nightmare April is getting to see AAA talent tested in the bigs.
English

#BlueJays Takeaways on:
• Piñango’s expanding role
• Trying to “play in sync”
• Corbin, the surprise saviour

@ggellert @KeeganMatheson Initially I thought he’d be with the Jays for a month or so, get released, and end up somewhere else. So 1m seemed good for emergency help and gave him a springboard for something else.
Now I want him to stick around!

@nikkyb @KeeganMatheson Yes, it’s for the season. I’m sure there is probably some incentive clauses included if he does well

John Schneider on Patrick Corbin, who's made himself a Very Important Pitcher:
"You need that. We had that with Eric Lauer last year. You need someone who you weren’t really counting on to step in and stabilize you for a bit. If you run with it, you run with it.” #BlueJays

@CobyWanKanobi @Jomboy_ LOL. So with 4x balls each worth 12.5 you can walk halfway to first? 🤣
English

@Jomboy_ You should only get credit for as much of the ball that is in the zone. For example a pitch like this should be worth 0.45 strikes and 0.55 balls.
On a 3.44-2.56 count, that would be just enough to complete the strikeout.

English

Genuine question:
Whatever you change the margin to… you’re always going to have calls that are 0.5% within that new area right? You can’t run away from this, right?
Matthew Lee Rosen@MatthewLeeRosen
In this instance, less than 0.5% of the ball has actually touched zone. It does't seem justifiable to reverse the umpire's call. The ABS system calculates inches & surface data. I think the rules should be adjusted, so that 25% of the ball must be in the zone for a strike.

Behind-the-back catch from a knee after falling over 🤯
#OTD last year, Daulton Varsho broke our brains with this grab

@MitchBannon I hope he sticks around! I’d like to see how he develops on the Jays
English

After yesterday's game, Spencer Miles has now pitched more innings with the #BlueJays than the rest of his pro career combined (15.2 vs 14.2).
He owns a 2.87 ERA, 3.84 xERA — pretty effective in that multi-inning role from the R5 pick.

@BlueJays @myles_straw @27vladdyjr @MLB @Sportsnet @MLBDominicana @mlbespanol @MLBJapan Those guys are coming together so well 💙

@Sportsnet @ShiDavidi I’m so relieved to know that Lukes knows what’s going on with and that he’s on the mend.
English

Nathan Lukes has quietly grinded through the first three weeks of the season in more ways than one.
@ShiDavidi has more on how the Blue Jays outfielder is starting to get a handle on the the vertigo that’s dogged him since the middle of spring training. sportsnet.ca/mlb/article/iv…

@BlueJays @27vladdyjr @andresgimenez @MLB I expected no less than that fire fit from Dylan 🔥 when in the desert 🌵
