Blue Jays: Alek Manoah making an early case for the AL Cy Young Award
Blue Jays’ pitcher Alex Manoah has been nothing but short of spectacular since his big league debut. I knew that he was going to be something special for this team.

Jays Thump Orioles
Photo by Mark Blinch/ Orioles 1 Blue Jays 11 So until the fifth inning, it was a close game. We were up 2-0, but it was a game. Then the Jays scored 7 in the fifth, and it was over. Alek Manoah was great, once again. He went 6 innings and only allowed 1 hit, 1 walk with 7 strikeouts (Ross Stripling only allowed 1 hit yesterday, this is something that I would love the team to continue). Julian Merryweather gave up the 1 run the Orioles got, while getting the first two outs of the seventh. But Merryweather left the game with ‘left side discomfort’. He’s getting an...

Jays Shutout Royals
Photo by Jamie Squire/ Kirk gets four hits. Blue Jays 7 Royals 0 A delightful game. Alek Manoah wasn’t his sharpest, but he got the outs when needed. And his defense made some nice plays behind him. In the second inning, Bo Bichette made a great jump to snag a line drive that should have been a single and run driven home. But, instead, a catch and easy toss to second for a double play. In the third, one-out and a runner on first, a reasonably hard-hit ball that Vlad grabbed, stepped on first and made a very nice side-arm throw to second, but the runner (Whit...
