I'm hoping they just spelled 'Merrifield' wrong.

our worst defensive option who cannot make a difficult play to save his life at 2B has now started 2 of 4 games this season. why?

Why does Vlad need so much time at DH?

assuming since the pticher is a righty, Biggio got the start, meaning Biggio will get more starts than warranted. :lol:

Naturally Biggio gets exposed early. Pretty sure Espinal would have had that...

I think there's a fair argument that Berrios might be the worst contract in Jays history. No idea what this franchise is gonna do with this guy for the next 5 years.
