Appearances
So I think, you know, all of Kirk, Vladdy, and Lucas are hit and run candidates to the plate, and then on the bases it's the guys that you referenced before, Bateman, Straw and um potentially Andrés Giménez.

Maybe even Ernie Clement who can run a little bit even though we don't see it too much from him in terms of stolen bases.
voice-verified
don't even need to call for it.
voice-verified
He did a really good job of digging that one out.
voice-verified
I will say from Gilbert's perspective, he wants that pitch on the outside of the plate.
voice-verified
And so whenever even though it was off the plate low, whenever you're throwing a breaking ball, if that stays middle in, even if it's a little bit up or a little bit down, it still can be vulnerable and you know Kirk really turned on that ball.
voice-verified
He deserves a lot of credit.
voice-verified
He's got five home runs in August now, which is a really high number for him.
voice-verified
Five home runs in a month, that's basically a 30 home run pace, right?
voice-verified
And he's never been really close to that.
voice-verified
This is his first five home run months since June 2022.
voice-verified
It's been a long time since he's been able to unleash that power production.
voice-verified
I don't think you can count on Kirk to be your number one source of home runs down the stretch, but he's giving the Blue Jays what they need and what they need.
voice-verified
need is that middle of the order presence and essentially since the all star break.
voice-verified
he has been that guy for the team and he has been when you throw in his defensive contribution, which is, you know, never in question, he has been kind of a superstar level player for the Blue Jays in the second half of the season.
voice-verified
And outside of Dylan Cease and Louie Varland, they just haven't had that in twenty twenty six.
voice-verified
three home runs this season in the minors.
voice-verified
And he's never had more than three home runs in any given season.
voice-verified
So this is just very much not part of his game.
voice-verified
Doesn't mean it can never happen, right?
