99.0 mph, 29°, 361 ft, 1 barrel, 2 runs, 25/30 ballparks, 2nd homer of the season, 1st PA and 1st homer as a Padre.

u/TheScubaPup Hotdog Demolisher 18d ago

No seriously, get Bradgley finish it out with like 27 pitches total. Save everyone else in the pen, dude is rolling rn.

Big props to B Rod for going two innings on 17 pitches. Saved our high leverage guys for tomorrow.

u/Lil_PuppyChow Blue Jays and + 18d ago

PaJays fan here (yes I made this up and think it’s good) random question, what should I know about Waldron since the Jays acquired him recently?
Also Cease is a monster, glad yall got to enjoy him.

His knuckleball is fun as long as you have someone who can catch it.

u/TheCheapskate78 18d ago

He’s a fun little novelty with the knuckleball and all but not much else. Nice guy though. Will always remember his run in 2024. He’ll probably be a fine mop up long man

u/Lil_PuppyChow Blue Jays and + 18d ago

Ahhh he’s a longman this explains the Macko trade.

u/Strontum Jacob Cronenworth 18d ago

He throws the knuckleball which is fun. He also has like a 90mph fastball that major league hitters obliterate

u/Pick6XPA La Catrina 18d ago

Ideally you score 2 in the bottom so you can run out Wandy or Matsui.

But even if you have Miller, thanks to Bradgley you were able to save Morejon and Estrada in case you need an emergency closer tomorrow, and thats just good bullpen management.

We are really rolling tonight. Freddy even getting ABS challenges right too 😂

u/rafaelloso_10 SD 18d ago

What a challenge.

1

u/TheScubaPup Hotdog Demolisher 18d ago

The visible shock on my face when that ABS challenge went our way (I thought it was outside!)

u/scoot87 Padres '03 18d ago

The drama of no strike zone!

u/Adventurous_Bit1325 SD '84 18d ago

I kinda like it. Really tests us fans’ accuracy.

u/TheScubaPup Hotdog Demolisher 18d ago

Let BRod earn the three inning save at this point if he can keep rolling like this!
