GDT(3/3): Toronto Blue Jays @ Boston Red Sox - Jenkins vs. Dempster - 1:35 PM ET

[oakville69]

Another solid inning by Jenkins!!! Should be able to give us another 1 hopefully 2 more

 

I must say I am very impressed by Jenkins. He was a first round pick by the Jays in 2009. After watching Romero & the other starters generally perform poorly, it's refreshing to b able to watch a game where the starting pitching has been solid.

Gibbons will get trigger happy like usual.

you cant burn the guy out. he's thrown 5 innings only once all year. he's not really stretched out. he's been good. it would really stink to blow him out in 1 game.

[Dylan]

Its going

going

going

gone!

 

Lawrie!!!!

[Metallijay]

It very well could be too much to overcome, but if they can get to .500 by mid season, they have a legit chance to challenge for a wild card I think.

 

I agree, its not impossible, they are playing better, was a good road trip considering we gave one game away in TB.

[Pete_7]

Lawrie!!!

 

Jenkins is done for the day guys, his pitch count for today was 80 and he's at 81.

[Metallijay]

JAys brought the HR swings today. 4 HR's, now lead the majors.

[GD]

ATTA BOY GORDIE! Brett Lawrie!

 

Remember that bomb he hit off of Lester first pitch last year?

[cesarb182]

Lawrie!!!

[Dylan]

Great game by him, time to throw out our weak bp guys unless it gets close.

[gruber92]

I've been watching his stats..... at one point he had like 16 BB and 3 SO, now he has 18 BB and 32 SO ...... LOL!!

 

He never had 16 BB and 3 K at any point.

[Metallijay]

Lawrie! Some tape-measure shots today.

 

Jenkins should stay out there until 105 pitches, no reason to take him out with such a lead.

 

Jenkins has only pitched past 5 once...... cannot let him go 100 + pitches buullpen is good to go today with buerhles outing.

[dmrich28]

why would you burn out Jenkins? Day off tomorrow, bullpen will have lots of rest

[Dylan]

Boni on fire!

[GD]

Boni with a 3-3 day? Damn

[Anemic0ffense]

Good to see Lawrie turn on a pitch... Would this be the first series win all year? lolol

[oakville69]

Jenkins has not been stretched out so his pitch count has probably been reached....start next inning and if leadoff man gets on, pull him..

 

Jenkins looks a bit tired after 5 innings. Bullpen for the 6th? Tomorrow is an offday.

If their starters were healthy..maybe..but not with this mess of a rotation.

Thank jesus that wasn't off Dempster. Seems like the Jays just have the hitting shoes on today.

[Chappy]

Lawrie! Some tape-measure shots today.

He has only had 1 start in the minors so far. Can't risk it just yet, we may very well need him for another start.

[cesarb182]

Bonifacio 3 hit game, wow

[o2cui2i]

Boni with a 3-3 day? Damn

 

I really hope this is the end of Boni's absolutamous suckadickus.

[Dylan]

Good to see Lawrie turn on a pitch... Would this be the first series win all year? lolol

 

Close... just our 2nd lol

 

Saki with the walk!

[Anemic0ffense]

Boni is 3-3... Now I'm convinced that this isn't real life

[DwightDM]

KAwasaki must be so frustrating to pitch to.. you know hes not gonna hit it hard yet he just keeps grinding. Like pitching to non-ball playing girls in a slow-pitch league.

[Randy The Robot]

Boni on fire!

-

Don't get too excited. He'll go hit less in his next 50 at bats. He's a terrible, terrible hitter. Though to give him credit he has got it off two very good pitchers.

[Metallijay]

I hope we run up the score hate the sox.

[John_Havok]

Would be good time for a double steal right now.

[Abomination]

I can't even think of the last time I saw a player choke up on the bat as far as Kawasaki did there. No reason to sit him vs lefties with the patience he has.

[John_Havok]

They won't walk Melky to load the bases for Jose

He does have a problem with consistant defense though.
