Yeah, I guess so. It's nice to see him have success, especially after we gave him so much rope

 

o I know i for some reason always liked lind but last year was enough where he had to go but good thing the jays held onto him.

I have a feeling this guy is going to get a lot of use with the penis jokes...

I don't get the JJ hate... the guys a stud, he's just returning from injury though.

 

He has not been a stud in a couple years and not with us. Until he proves it he is inconsistent and erratic.

We probably are frustrated because he is only here for one year, has made what, 6 starts?, and has, for the most part, been terrible.

Hey Alex, welcome back, how about a joke?

 

What's the difference between you and a mallard with a cold? One's a sick duck and I can't remember how it ends, but your mother's a whore

Nice one, dude.

I expected Johnson to struggle in his 2nd start. If he can go 6 that's great, but 5 is more realistic given that he just came back from an injury.

Grimm kind of reminds me of Drabek. Filthy stuff, but can't command it well yet. Can make batters look ridiculous for an inning, then get hit all over the park the next one.

JJ USED to be a stud and he is certainly not anymore. I've watched this guy pitched easily 70 plus games and he's not even a shell of his former self. His velocity is down about 3 ticks or so, but that's the least of his problems. To be quite honest, I see the "romero" syndrome in him although not as exaggerated. He became so used to getting no run support that he's got it in his head that he has to be perfect and as soon as someone hit him hard, he completely falls apart.

 

I watched him do it a dozen times last year. In the games where his command was good and the team scored for him, he didn't get rattled and he was able to get through with good pitch counts. As soon as he gave up a few hard hit balls or a long homerun, he fell apart mentally completely. That last inning after the Cruz homerun, he threw over 20 pitches to get an out of of .200 hitters and Thole had to stand up at least three times to even catch his fastball. He is a disaster waiting to happen and I really hope that we don't resign him unless he willing to sign for 6 million a year as our no. 5. Other than that, I'd say goodbye and good riddance.

Man this guy needs to suck it up, whatever it is

 

These guys are so soft...

 

Ya, he's such a pussy. I'm sure if you had structural damage in your arm you'd just keep huckin' em, eh
