Here are three gains from Sunday’s Blue Jays – Robots game, Jays was extremely susceptible to home run sensitivity to the Baltimore Orioles in the opening three games of the season, hitting Baltimore’s long ball to zero.

1. Bassitt persists in winning

It can be said that Jays’s start pitching immediately became a direct conversation point for the Bats, the opening day damaged by Jose Berrios’ bad outing, a Game 3 injury, who was injured in his Toronto debut.

Worse, Toronto’s bullpen is not good.

But it’s still early, but it takes an early rebound that needs to be caught in the Sunday series finale at multiple levels.

On the rebound day (formally known as Jr. Jays Day), Chris Bassitt wasn’t his best form, but a typical veteran, a teammate of Scherzer and the New York Mets who persisted and put everything on the mound.

Bassitt is an eclectic soul who complains after a bad outing that the enclosed roof of the Rogers Center contributed to his day in some way.

On a dull afternoon in Toronto, the roof was closed, but Jayce will provide some light for attendees.

2. Bo knows the hit

In some way, Bo Bichette is ignored, in many ways placed in the shadow of Jr.’s contract and all the accompanying noise.

Like Vlad Jr., Bichette is in contract year.

He has been the better batsman so far.

Bichette inserted into the lead that started the season, took a step in his first Bat game and scored seven hits in his last three games.

Given the grooves he found, there is absolutely no reason to remove the Bichette from hole 1.

The nightmare of one season last year was quickly forgotten, with at least one series.

3. A young man

Tyler Heineman and Jeff Hoffman have a fairly good day, and Jays hopes to be the day that comes with it.

Heineman is behind the plate for the first time this young season.

The team’s orders were not good at the bottom of the opening ceremony.

The series ended largely improved when Heineman went deeper to provide Jays with the necessary play-offs for the seventh inning.

As for Hoffman, the entrance he came out of the bullpen was very similar to how Jordan Romano entered the game when he was asked to save the game.

Hoffman eliminated Gary Sanchez in his first saving chance with Jays to keep the win.

Jays welcomed the Washington Nationals to town for three games Monday, starting with Vlad Jr. Silver Slugger’s Bobhead Giveaway Night, followed by the first Loonie Dogs Night.
