GDT(2/3): Colorado Rockies @ Toronto Blue Jays - Francis vs. Rogers - 7:07 PM ET

[Caper]

Oliver calms me down. Hes a trade chip if we aren't in the race. But if we are hes still the guy I trust the most to get me a zero.

 

He's a trade chip if you are in the race.

[Metallijay]

Hope the Jays keep this up. Need to start winning series against the AL EAST.

[Dylan]

does anybody got some points for picking him today? even that it wasnt the first one

 

nah not today.

[Dylan]

K!

 

2 outs to go!

[blackjays21]

No way I want him in that pen.

 

hes only signed for this year, if we are not in the race for the playoffs then trade him for anything..

 

atleast this way we don't lose him to retirement at the end of the season

[Metallijay]

Delabar just seems to lose control and always does the token walk.

[Angrioter]

Delabar for Thames was a fantastic trade.

 

Delabar for Thames = Great

Rogers for Yan/Mike = 2XGreat lol

[cesarb182]

stop drinking cola you fat f***

[Dylan]

WE WIN!!!!!!

 

7 in a row!!!

[blackjays21]

Obviously. He said hes a trade chip if we are in the race. I want him traded if we have no shot at playoffs.

 

ah I must of misread that one.. why would anybody wanna trade oliver IF WE ARE IN THE RACE ?

he is as steady as could be...

 

stupid idea caper!

[blackjays21]

anyway big win tonight.. f***ing esmil has been lights out ever since becoming a starter!

[Pulk_Pull]

[Metallijay]

[cesarb182]

Delabar looks nervous even with a 5 run lead.

Nice win guys

[havok24]

[Angrioter]

I would trade him if we are not in the race. I don't know if he's even the 6th option now... he would probably be on the bubble if they had to make a decision now on who to send down if they moved to a 7 man pen. I wonder if Oliver still has options.

[Dylan]

2 games under 500?? sweet!

[blackjays21]

He struck out the side lol. He had the right approach to Rosario. He usually gets himself out.

 

lol yea nice pitching by delabar

 

I still remember that 4 strikeout inning by him .. thing of beauty

[SexyNewForum]

team has been fantastic to watch the last month

great win awesome pitching esmil

yea that is what I thought you meant.. I don't know if oliver has options or not but he is a vetrinn lol I think he would rather be traded then to be sent down to the minor leagues

yea he held a no hitter into the 5th inning.. he pitched a fantasic game and kept the hitters looking foolish!

 

who needs morrow?? pfft

You deal out of a position of strength. The pen is a position of strength.

 

Janssen

Cecil

Delabar

Loup

Wagner

McGowan

 

That's 6 guys right there that you keep ahead of Oliver. McGowan is off right now... but he is only going to get better and personally I think has the most upside in the pen.... he'll shake off the rust and be very good if his arm doesn't explode. Either way if he is healthy they aren't exposing D-Mac over Oliver. For the 7th spot you have Oliver, Perez, Stillson, Lincoln, Carreno... and Santos if he can ever get healthy. Oliver is good. He is a calming presence, does command respect and probably provides intangibles out there...... but he's still 43 and expendable.

[Caper]

I was joking about the options part... he's been in the league 100 years... but no. You deal from a position of strength to fill holes elsewhere. I think he could be a great piece for a trade.

lol yea I understand your thought... wagner has been a nice surprise. I think McGowan may be able to put it all together in the pen and keep his arm from falling off.. our bullpen is a position of strength . its been a while since we could say that.

[charlie460]

hescars seems to be 404ing now... interesting

Just a head's up, guys... I am having major bandwidth issues with this Mets/Braves series that's going on (~200ish viewers), so the Jays stream has been held off, but tomorrow should be a bit quieter, I will likely stream the game tomorrow.
