Well, the Jays talk plus season could be off to a better start.
Toronto Blue Jays lost on Sunday heading into episode one and then they lost last night.
I was back down at the ballpark after a week or two away for Raptors playoff stuff and it did not go particularly well.
Toronto Blue Jays lose eight to five to the Tampa Bay Rays.
It is the fourth already that they've lost to the Rays fourth in the last like eight days.
Tough one for Kevin Gosman.
He did hit the career milestone of 2,000 career strikeouts, but also had his worst start of the season, seven runs, six earned over four and two-thirds, pitch inefficient over those first two innings where he gave up five, tried to give the Blue Jays some length from there, wasn't able to.
So a day after they did the Miles, Nance, Lauer,
stack.
They had to use four relievers yesterday.
A little bit of roster churn with Eric Lauer getting designated for assignment before the game.
We saw Yariel Rodriguez's return yesterday and it was maybe what you remember and certainly what you saw at AAA where he walked a batter but struck two batters out.
The stuff looked nasty.
Not entirely sure where it's going to go every single time but
There have been relievers who have had control issues in the past and been just fine if they have the swing and miss stuff.
There was also a caught stealing of Ben Williamson in there.
So nice to see Yariel Rodriguez back.
Nice to be back on Jay's Talk Plus and back down at the ballpark.
And very nice to be joined as we are regularly on JTP by Dan Schulman, voice of the Toronto Blue Jays on Sportsnet.
He joins us now.
