| Ale-ale-jandro; Ale-ale-jandroooooooooo |
It should be a pretty big problem for the Blue Jays when Vladimir Guerrero Jr. and George Springer go a combined oh-for-eight (with two walks, to be fair), but it isn't a problem at all, like even a tiny one, if Alejandro Kirk and Santiago Espinal are going to go a combined seven-for-nine, which they extremely did in Wednesday's 7-0 win over the Royals, hot on the heels of the 8-0 win the night before. Good times! Alek Manoah, though not as sharp as we are used to seeing him, nevertheless allowed nary a run in six innings of work, and his season now stands at 7-1 with a 1.81 ERA (for those of you still into those numbers [I only like them when they are good]). I mean, who knows, but it would not be unreasonable to suggest that Alek Manoah should be the AL starter in the fast-approaching All-Star Game. Also, and not to get too far ahead of things here, I am very much of the view that he should be awarded the AL Cy Young preemptively/immediately.
