But hey, in the meantime, I mean, shout out to Charles McAdoo for finding a way to hit a home run in what was a huge game, really led by rookies in that game against the Orioles, where you have Adam Macko's first career start.
You have Braden Fisher's first career save.
You have McAdoo's first career home run.
This is kind of what they wanted when they called him up, right, to get someone who can
the work that he's done he's really earned his way up here man big picture when you look at a lot of these names that we're mentioning the blue jays are relying a lot on rookies this season and it's valenzuela it's kazuma okamoto even though he has a lot of pro experience this is his first season in major league baseball of course it's pinongo who they've relied on a ton and
Um, on the, and McAdoo, who we just mentioned on the pitching side, Spencer miles, you know, even though it was a pretty rough start, uh, I actually thought he was, I thought he was okay.
I thought the Orioles put some good swings on him in that Sunday outing.
And he's still a huge part of this.
Trey is average, still a rookie as we've talked about.
And, um, and so, and it goes on with newcomers like Mako and Hayden Yinger being called up.
They're really relying a lot on this young group.
And to a large extent, they're actually stepping up and giving the Blue Jays what they need.
But, you know, they need the vets to come through as well, both from a health standpoint and a production standpoint.
And it's a credit to the Blue Jays for finding those guys.
And it's ultimately a credit to those players.
But it's also a reflection of the injuries that they've had, especially on the pitching side, where they've been really just exposed and overexposed and
You know, we've always known it wasn't sustainable to to keep going like this with even Spencer Miles rule five pick is one of your spots.
