GDT: Blue Jays @ Rangers (4 of 4) Wang vs Holland

[Dylan]

Melky has not looked good lately, on a big cold streak

[kgm1]

s*** I benched JPA for the last while and put Mesoraco in

[Chappy]

Huh? No guys if the Jays pick up the option it's 7 million.......if they buy him out he's released at 2 million.

 

Your right, but the $2M is a sunk cost, it will be paid out regardless. If the Jays let him go it costs them $2M, if they keep him it costs them $7M, thus the only variable is $5M. $2M is getting paid no matter what. If the Jays trade him then they save $7M (assuming his option will be picked up which looks like a no brainer).

[kgm1]

As useless as JPA is, its nice to have some big power way down in the lineup.

 

Yea but if you were a pitcher would you throw JPA a strike . I wouldn't

[JFD]

Jesus, Chris Davis is beasting again today for the Orioles.

 

I saw the first HR, what now?

[Dylan]

4 up, 4 down!

[guylaroche5]

can someone please tell me why we're fielding our worst infield defense with chien ming wang? i mean at least put kawasaki at short.......

[Angrioter]

Wang dealing

[Dylan]

make that 5 up, 5 down!!

[Chappy]

Yea but if you were a pitcher would you throw JPA a strike . I wouldn't

 

But that's not the point, he is still hitting for big power, just can't do anything else. Obviously its weird that more pitchers just don't give him anything to hit, he can't walk and swings wildly to avoid walks at any cost, seems like a no brainer to me.

[JFD]

RBI double. Four doubles off Lester today for Baltimore, just an amazingly productive offense.

 

they are scary good

[Angrioter]

Rangers hitters "f*** asian guy, throw the damn ball"

[Figgy1R22R]

Because we have #Top10Catcher and that's all we need

[kgm1]

LOL I wondered on that too

[Dylan]

Those pitches wern't close

[Chappy]

Because we have #Top10Catcher and that's all we need

 

When he hits those dingers he is a top 10 catcher. Unfortunately he has only been a top 10 catcher for 14 AB's this year.

[JFD]

that Davis HR was a pop fly for most hitters...

[Metallijay]

HAte those cheap hits. That davis HR looked like a pop up to short right lol.

[Angrioter]

RBI Double.

 

I saw Davis here at DWL 2 years ago..............a f***ing beast

[IronLadle]

wang is a sinker ball pitcher and we have our worst infielders playing

[Chappy]

Come on Wang, lets get out of this.

[kgm1]

s***** defense again . now how many more pitches does Wang throw . That has been a part ( maybe not much but a part) of our rotation woes.

[Chappy]

Nice job by Wang.

[baseballsss]

bam K!

[Cello]

Holland

38 pitches, 27 strikes

 

Wang

28 pitches, 17 strikes

[Anemic0ffense]

Jays Wang rock solid through 2... Hopefully he can keep it up

[Metallijay]

Wang looks great.

[Dylan]

K!

[Angrioter]
