Guerrero singled home George Springer in the fourth and advanced Bichette to second. Hernandez was called out at home plate by umpire Bill Welke when Gurriel doubled to deep left and advanced to third on Miller's throw. By the middle of the fourth inning Texas had built a 7-0 lead. Springer drew a two-out walk before Bichette and Guerrero had back-to-back singles to score again. He couldn't get his first out until he was six batters into the Rangers' lineup and Toronto was trailing 3-0. Guerrero, Hernandez, and Marcus Semien — who signed with Texas in the off-season after playing for the Blue Jays last year — formally received their Silver Slugger awards. Dennis Santana, one of four Texas relievers, took the loss. Brad Miller and Adolis Garcia added solo blasts for the visitors. Jose Berrios gave up four runs in just a third of an inning as Toronto's Opening Day starter escaped with a no decision. "I think there's not a single player in this clubhouse that is going to forget today, what happened today." "When it came to game I was trying to be too perfect, I think like too nasty and I didn't throw the ball over the plate," he said. "We always knew it was going to be like that from the beginning," said Hernandez. "We're just excited to be back and enjoy every single moment with the fans."
It is time to start a new season for the Toronto Blue Jays and for the first time in a long time, expectations are sky high and for good reason.
What are your expectations for the Blue Jays this season? Sure this isn’t a perfect team but it’s certainly the best collection of talent that we have seen in years. Mark Shapiro and Ross Atkins have made the moves that they were previously criticized for not making in the past.

It was the first time Rogers Centre had hosted a home opener since 2019, as COVID-19 restrictions forced the Blue Jays to play all of 2020 and most of 2021 in Dunedin, Fla., and Buffalo, N.Y. Teoscar Hernández had a three-run blast and scored the game-winning run as the Toronto Blue Jays rallied from an early 7-0 deficit to earn a raucous 10-8 win over the Texas Rangers on Friday.

With the standards high for the Toronto Blue Jays, the Jays Journal staff and the Jay Bird Watching crew make some bold predictions for the season.
For him to have an early call-up, there must be a combination of him lighting up the minors and two of Jansen, Kirk, and Collins either hurt or not pulling their weight. At 22 years old, the Blue Jays will be sure to not rush him. With the roster poised to be World Series contenders, the Blue Jays still have to compete in a tough AL East division. Some names that stick out are Kenley Jansen (if the Atlanta Braves are for some reason not contending) and Whit Merrifield but more names will pop up as the season goes on clubs find themselves outside the playoff race. If healthy (and that’s a major factor), Biggio could be in for a big year. With the additions of Springer and others over the past few seasons, Cavan Biggio is no longer a top-of-the-order option.
