Chris Bassitt rips into the Blue Jays about wanting to sit him the rest of the season

Pitcher Chris Bassitt was on the mound for the Blue Jays and had an absolutely brutal game giving up four hits and two earned runs while walking seven batter in 4.1 innings pitched.

After the game, the Blue Jays mentioned how despite Sunday being Bassitt's turn in the rotation, they might end up sitting him and have the bullpen split the entire game which did not seem to sit right with Bassitt.

Bassitt told reporters that he will not let the bullpen cover his game and added that if they had Yarbough start, it would not be fair to him as he is about to enter free agency and this could damage his stock. He also added that just because it is a meaningless last game of the season, this does not mean that he should sit out since he is fully healthy and ready to pitch.

Fans loved Bassitt's fiery reaction as it proved that despite the disappointing season, he wants to compete until the very last out which is the type of passion the fans love to see from their layers.
