[G-Snarls]

A win here would be huge

 

If we're gonna take 2/3 vs Yankees it's best to win the first one

[bzapple]

I don't care much for JPA hitting fourth either, but it's sure as hell better than Jayson Nix hitting second.

[G-Snarls]

[KevinGregg]

Cool, our cleanup hitter has a 0.252 OBP.

 

that's 100% on gibby. I cant believe optimal line-up construction isn't mandatory at the big league managerial level

[connorp]

Yeah JPA is pretty putrid. After showing the power early I was trying to root for him this year to be at least like a .240/.280/520 guy but its not meant to be. Fading to his sucky .710 OPS mean pretty fast

[Iluvbjs]

Yeah, the shame of it all is that when he's going well, he's hitting line drives up the right center field alley. Then he goes back to trying to pull everything and being ridiculously out front on off speed pitches. What really bugs me about him is when you see pitchers putting 90-92 mph fastballs by him, one after another. The guy has to be able to excel at hitting at least one type of pitch and thus far, he has shown none of that. Not to mention he can't catch or block the ball to his right for s***. I've seen 12 year olds that show better mechanics back there. It's ridiculous that he made it to MLB as a catcher.

[Caper]

I'm torn, because I like a lot of what Gibby does. Especially the Lind platoon. But he seems just as blinded as all the casual fans by the dingers and RBI.

 

Were you upset when JPA hit the game winning bomb the other night?

[Caper]

You seem pretty stupid.

 

 

That's not an answer.

[GD]

You seem pretty stupid.

 

"Pretty stupid" is getting to be an understatement. He has 0 concept of what a prospect is, how luck affects performance, among other things.

[Chappy]

I have a good feeling about tonight. I think our bats will continue the current trend.

[havok24]

You seem pretty stupid.

 

lol

[GD]

That's not an answer.

 

Because your question wasn't worth answering.

[Captain Adama]

I thought this guy was just kidding at first, I now realize he's a f***ing retard.

[o2cui2i]

Because your question wasn't worth answering.

 

stop feeding the troll, you know they multiply if you feed them!!!

Let's Go Jays

[Caper]

You seem pretty stupid.

 

Not quite as stupid as you.

[Dirty SlobberKnocker]

Wow that Yankees lineup really does suck LOL. Too bad somehow they keep f***ing winning.

[Caper]

stop feeding the troll, you know they multiply if you feed them!!!

 

 

I'm not trolling. 90% of BTS's posts is about how much he hates JPA or AA, as if he could run a baseball team.

[Angrioter]

5th in a row

[Abomination]

Wow that Yankees lineup really does suck LOL. Too bad somehow they keep f***ing winning.

 

Normally I'd expect them to regress and wouldn't be too worried about it, but it's possible that just as the over-performers do so the injured guys may be ready to return.

[Caper]

You should not be able to run Nix out there, and Ben Francisco and Vernon Wells and Lyle Overbay and come up with the offense they are coming up with.

[Chappy]

It's actually incredible that their offense isn't one of the worst in the MLB thus far. Their luck has to run out at some point but by then they may have reinforcements on the way.

[Caper]

LOL at you replying, not getting a bite, feeling the anger build within you for 15 minutes, and then dropping this vicious insult.

 

Yes, that's it.

[fatcowxlive]

I'm torn, because I like a lot of what Gibby does. Especially the Lind platoon. But he seems just as blinded as all the casual fans by the dingers and RBI.

 

I say give Gibby time. He's doing everything right. Take almost any other MLB manager and they wouldn't have the balls to put a slow hit machine in leadoff and move Bautista, the team's best hitter + #3 lineup order for 3+ years, up to second in the lineup. He seems to be making the right moves, he just likes to give players a lot of chances

[fatcowxlive]

He's not hating on JPA with that post. All he said is that he thinks Gibby is putting JPA 4th because of his homers and RBIs, ignoring his OBP.
