Sho Alli

And he has... I think he has...

no matter how last season ended, I think he has been that guy more than not.

I let's say over the course of his time in a blue Jays uniform.

So I think for that, I mean, this is a guy who has three opening day starts for the blue Jays.

Like this organization clearly trusts him.

I'm pretty sure the last guy prior to have three opening day starts for prior Jose Barrios.

Cause

He broke that tie in 2025, I guess, when he got the opening day start last year.

But he was tied with a variety of other guys like R.A.

Dickey and Marcus Stroman and Ricky Romero.

But I think the last guy prior to him to have three opening day starts was Roy Halladay.

So, yeah, I think it's a guy, this is a person who the team has a lot of faith in.

On Patrick Corbin, though...

So tonight, five and a third, two runs, both of which were earned, one walk, four strikeouts, 79 pitches, 53 strikes.

I got to say, I mean, it's a solid stat line.

I don't even really think...

the Buxton, and I want to use air quotes here, mistake to Buxton was that much of a mistake.

If I'm going credit to Byron Buxton or a mistake by Patrick Corbin, I think I'm going like 75% in favor of Byron Buxton in that particular case.

Yeah.

That slider.
