Must read on Blue Jays Insider

Blue Jays fans do not have much faith in Manoah prior to 1st start

Little had barely played this season but it has been a struggle for the left handed pitcher as he has a 10.80 ERA through 3.1 innings pitched while only striking out 4 batters.

Manoah on the other hand has been very inconsistent in triple-A but is coming off of a great performance where he struck out 12 batters.

Hopefully Manoah will be just as good against the Nationals today but fans are skeptical as Manoah has struggled a lot since 2022.
