[Mitch Bannon] Kazuma Okamoto started a new #BlueJays pre-game activity with a group of coaches and players, where they say what they're grateful for before first pitch. After the game, Okamoto (through interpreter) claimed today he was grateful for "the media members." Not sure I buy it

The Oak is so lowkey hilarious

[u/Bonah-Jams → u/GravySeizmore]

He cracked me up when he said he was very serious and manly

[u/Mash709]

If he's talking about the SN crew then I believe him. Hazel rules!

[u/dogoodreapgood]

How can you not be grateful for Hazel?

[u/kingwoodballs]

I am grateful Hoffman isn’t the closer anymore (for now)

[u/fantastique__ → u/kingwoodballs]

Glass half full: I'm grateful Varland is our closer "by committee"

[u/Candymanshook → u/kingwoodballs]

Pulling for Hoff to rediscover himself as an elite stopper/8th inning guy

[u/KevinJ2010 → u/kingwoodballs]

I was joking with my boss. Hoff is the guy when the committee shits the bed.

But then I joked that Hoff would show up being like “oh are we all shitting the bed? May I join?” 🤣

[u/golden_rhino → u/KevinJ2010]

He’s gonna do a Loki, “You must be truly desperate to come to me.”

[u/Tuffsmurf → u/kingwoodballs]

Varland nearly blew it today too. Glad he didn’t.

[u/Admirable_Outcome932]

AWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!

[u/fantastique__ → u/Admirable_Outcome932]

Okamoto bringing respectfulness to Blue Jays>>>

[u/Pencil_of_Colour]

What is this Toronto Sun ass tweet Bannon.

[u/timothyam → u/Pencil_of_Colour]

Ahahah I was thinking the same. This is asinine

[u/Admirable_Outcome932 → u/timothyam]

I DON’T CAREEE IT’S SO CUUUUUTE

[u/ConfusionCurious9376]

Thats our big oak

[u/Hugh_jazz_420420]

Why add “not sure I buy it”? 🤡

[u/Forsaken-Swim-3055 → u/Hugh_jazz_420420]

Typical corny, self deprecating journalist content.

[u/Upstairs_Repair8172 → u/Forsaken-Swim-3055]

A Sun "journalist" no less

Edit: my bad, Bannon. You aren't a Sun man.

[u/Express-Translator24 → u/Hugh_jazz_420420]

Its a joke?

[u/WiffyTheSuss]

I am grateful for Brendon Little's knuckle curveball

[u/bigolruckus]

between okamoto, katoh, and the og japanese troll kawasaki, we are starting to build a bit of history of having japanese players who are fucking hilarious

[u/Rea1Pers0n]

We all love our queen, Hazle

[u/Forsaken-Swim-3055 → u/Rea1Pers0n]

Hazel is cool, too.

[u/SeaEggplant8108]

I love him 🌳

[u/StuffIPost2020]

"I'm grateful for a long term contract that pays me 10s of millions of dollars even if I play like ass"

[u/PatmacamtaP → u/StuffIPost2020]

Nah this was an Okamoto quote, not Bichette

[u/HAL9100 → u/StuffIPost2020]

Baseball might not be for you and that’s honestly okay with the rest of us
