Ahoy hoy everyone. It is time once again to do a little mail baggin’! Uh. Meaning, of course, that I’m looking for your best Toronto Blue Jays Q’s, so I can provide a whole bunch of A’s next week in the form of a mail bag post. So please submit your questions for me in the comments below!
Of course, as always, that the ability to post comments around here is for paid subscribers only. So if you want to ask a question, you’ll have to subscribe or upgrade.
Yes, this is a way to hopefully entice as many folks as I can upgrade to a paid subscription, and yes, I’m still sorry about all that. But unfortunately I’ve got to try to make a living out here!
Anyway, you know the drill!
My memory of Trent Thornton from 2019 are that he was a pretty solid starter most of the time, consistently got through innings and a couple of bad outings inflated his numbers a bit. Seems strange to me he’s not in the rotation at this point - Kay and potentially Striping seem better suited to the bulk reliever role for now. Does the Jays approach with Thornton seem a bit strange to you?
Andrew. Always great to see you pop up in my email. It’s usually the best read of the day. Sports, news, or otherwise. I’m curious how you go about finding all the articles and links. You comment on so many of them. And also how you get the transcripts for Atkins and Shapiro’s zoom calls? Mostly, I’m just interested in how your operation functions. Keep up the amazing work.
