Buck's comment on JP's interference:

 

"Can it get any worse?"

[Chappy]

JPA is a joke.

[Angrioter]

Lincoln 7.63 ERA, 9.99 xFIP

[Dylan]

[JFD]

JPA is a joke.

 

he's like Buster Posey without the talent

[fatcowxlive]

We better f***ing claim Fransisco and trade for Ackley

[theblujay]

Omfg this team...

[jaysfaithful8]

The P in JP must stand for Passedball

 

JPA = Just Passed Another

[theblujay]

I'd rather be a Marlins fan

Remember, a lot of teams wanted Dickey, not just the Jays. Texas was rumored--just be glad they didn't get him, or Oakland's in 1st place right now. Remember, the Mets wanted to trade him because they felt they couldn't afford him, especially with a rebuild.

 

Travis D'Arnaud is not a sure thing--he's on the DL in Vegas right now. Noah Syndegaard is a long ways away--he's only in high-A ball. Mike Aviles is only playing because Lonnie Chisenhall still hasn't developed yet in Cleveland--and Aviles' numbers are a small sample size.

 

It doesn't f***ing matter what d'Arnaud and Syndergaard become in the future. What matters is how much value we gave up in that trade. At the time of the trade we gave up two top 50 prospects for a 38 year old knuckleball pitcher. Dickey has been utter s*** and nothing resembling what he was in that 3 year period with the Mets. AA got freaking pillaged.

HAHAHAHAH... Catcher's interference on JPA>. it just keeps getting better!

 

Interference? What did he do? I can't watch it on TV

[dmrich28]

hopefully this night worth of circus acts gets it out of their system for a couple weeks at least

[Chappy]

he's like Buster Posey without the talent

 

Don't insult Buster.

[Flashman]

Jack Morris: "This isn't Major League Baseball right now."

 

Awful game.

It makes me want to weep when I remember that we could have had a 1 for 1 swap of d'Arnaud and Latos and instead we ship d'Arno AND Syndgaard for Dickey

[digiblader]

I think we know who gets sent down when we add a position player--and it's likely Brad Lincoln.

[fatcowxlive]

He stuck his glove out and interfered with Heyward's swing

Send him to Atlanta with a fringe prospect for Juan Francisco

[IBTrini]

They didn't seem to want to take any chances last night pulling rogers out in the 4th when he was clearly pitching better then Dickey is tonight. Unbelievable they let him to though the 6th

Last night was a different scenario - Rogers had reached his pitch count since he was not stretched as a starter and at that point he had already allowed 2 on with 1 out. It was the right move in my opinion.

[dmrich28]

it's Jp's way of "framing a pitch"

[Cello]

I bet it'll be Thad Weber.

[Dylan]

You know it's bad when I've watched the last 5 nascar races and actually starting to enjoy it

[gruber92]

Ackley is over hyped garbage also. Trade EE or Bautista to Texas for Profar.

[fatcowxlive]

Yup, stick the glove out and catch it before it breaks into the zone lol #top10catcher

[TheHurl]

I swear that he is the firstJay player I have ever hated. And I loathe him with a passion

 

us guys hating JPA is one thing but I thought a female hating him was grounds for vagina removal.

[digiblader]

As I said, it could've happened to anybody. Jays weren't the only team interested. Rangers and Angels were apparently mentioned, along with Pittsburgh, Kansas City,Washington and the Dodgers.

Ackley will do better than Izzy and Boni combined. Throw him at 2nd, especially since Seattle don't view him as anything big.

 

Texas aren't stupid. They'll demand more than EE or Bautista

[dmrich28]

oh well..I guess they were lucky to get a split

[TheHurl]

You know it's bad when I've watched the last 5 nascar races and actually starting to enjoy it

 

 

Toronto's pro ultimate frisbee (officially disc) team is 7-0 and has a home game on Saturday. It's the team to get behind.

There was a reason why they took our offer....
