Here’s what people were saying on social media:
Zach Worden: “Cool for Hayden Juenger to get his big-league shot. Sixth-round pick of the #BlueJays in 2021, who landed in Triple-A in late 2022 and has been there ever since. 26.1% K rate and 9.1% BB rate over 17 appearances this year in Buffalo.”
@ConnyCurrently: “Poor Austin Voth, I’m sure he’s better than that, he just had a terrible day”
@deejaydo: “Bye Voth. THANK YOU JAYS. He was unwatchable”
@ItsKrisRose: “Farewell Austin Voth, we hardly knew you”
@BradIsCanadian: “The amount of clueless casual fans in the comments acting like Voth was ever going to be here long term and they just dodged a bullet is honestly hilarious.”
