A look around the Toronto Blue Jays Minor League system

“He’s checked all the boxes. If he’s good tomorrow, will catch Friday in Buffalo (maybe a couple games) before returning.” John Schneider, after Danny Jansen (groin) ran bases for first time today. #BlueJays

#BlueJays win, 3-2.

Time of game: 2:03.

In some ways, we're all winners.

#BlueJays beat the Astros 3-2. They got two home runs from Bichette and Belt, Bassitt pitched eight innings and Romano gets his 16th save of the season. MOST IMPORTANTLY, the game was 2 hours and 3 minutes. Truly blessed

John Schneider said the #BlueJays wanted to be conscious of Chris Bassitt facing the Astros lineup a 4th time:

“He totally understood it and he was as professional as you can be.”

Chris Bassitt on being pulled after 81 pitches and 8 IP:

"If you know me at all, I'll fight analytics 'til I die. But I knew I had to face Alvarez in the ninth ... I'm not sure if you know my numbers against him, but they're not good." #BlueJays

If you just looked at the boxscores, you’d think “couple good Chris Bassitt starts.” In reality a whole lot more went into the last week. More @[email protected] #BlueJays https://sportsnet.ca/mlb/article/ef…
Efficient Bassitt hauls innings as Blue Jays win again vs. Astros

Bizarre though it may sound after the Blue Jays demoted their opening-day starter, the top of this team’s starting rotation looks really good after coming off Wednesday's 3-2 win over the Astros. Ben Nicholson-Smith tells us what that all means.

I've now boosted over 50,000 posts on Mastodon since I arrived here back on November 3, 2022. That's about 230 boosts every day. I'm torn between celebrating and apologizing. 🤦‍♀️

Either way, thank you so much for following me. 💖
