The first five games of the #BlueJays season have not quite been a disaster — but you can see it from here. Landing in Houston, the Jays found themselves no-hit by the Astros’ bottom-of-the-rotation fifth starter, Ronel Blanco, who is 30 years old and making his eighth career start. How did that happen? The Jays had prepared for what they remembered, and what video showed, facing the righthander in 2023, but since then has added a devastating changeup for which the Jays lineup was not prepared. This 2024 team is built on pitching and defence, but will always need enough runs to compete on a daily basis. A brief rundown of obscure no-hit pitchers suggests don’t rush out to pick up Blanco for your Fantasy Team. All this and much more.
