With his hat on, Boyd somewhat resembles Jim Thome

Unless Judge AND Soto are both planning to break their pinky toes, they’ll be just fine losing Jazz lol

That’s a strange one. Off arm UCL injury for a position player?

Despite having excellent rehab performances for us, my expectations for Matthew Boyd aren’t very high. He has a career 4.94 ERA with a 44-67 record and hasn’t pitched in a year after Tommy John surgery. It’s not like Cole or Verlander are returning and even studs have their troubles off layoffs. I hope I’m wrong
Well hopefully in that year he's been off, he has been working his mechanics and getting them more effective... Remember guys like Fedde went to Korea and got better because they found the right mix of pitches...
Plus if he finishes the season strong, he could get a decent contract from someone so this is a season/time that will even extend his career or tank it... I am hoping we see the extension...
Matt Boyd's main issue in his entire career was giving up HRs... I wouldn't even be surprised if his pitch mix was changed...
Ps. His Sinker usage in the minors was more than twice than his past usage was in the minors and his MPH is better than he has been in years already...

Sounds good to me.…lol. Everyone has a game plan until they get hit that first time. Nice 1st inning….better than most of our rotation lately…at least we’re not trailing already

Already hating it. MLB TV is pissing me off lately. The app on my phone has the Cleveland broadcast but the TV app is only giving me the Cubs.
At least you don’t have a local blackout like I do with MLB.TV. Only saving grace is I get the Hammy radio broadcasts in real time. And of course the mlb.tv app doesn’t let you cast to your TV.

What was that conference between Boyd and the home plate umpire? I’ve never seen that

Prior to that steal Boyd had tossed 19 straight strikes.

I get taking the guaranteed out, but I don’t know. Maybe you don’t catch that?

I think Bo got nicked with a foul ball and they were giving him a minute.
