Notes:

 

MLB:

• No important notes today
   
  

 

Twins:

• Justin Morneau is .198 against the Jays in his career, and he's in a 1/14 slump at the Rogers Center
  
• The Twins BP are also good like the Jays, posting an ERA of 2.46 in 58.1 innings of work on the road in the past 17 games
  

 

Jays:

• Jose Bautista's been hot, hitting 13/25 with 4 homers and so is Jose Reyes as he's gone 13/36 even since he got his first hit from his DL return with two homers of his own
  
• RA Dickey's knuckler velocity has been increasing, leading to better command and better result. The knuckleballer has a 2.93 ERA in 27.2 innings pitched, and he owns a 1.13 ERA in his last two starts

The Twins suck, Pelfrey sucks, Dickey has been decent lately. Easy win. See you guys for the sweep tomorrow.

 

Watch the game though! lol

[bowld]

Dickey needs to deliver another quality start today. The Twins suck so anything less than a series sweep would be a letdown

[Dylan]

2/3

 

Lets go Blue Jays!!

[BlueJayWay]

Should be a win. Pelfrey is yet another one of these blah Twins starters that they love to run out there.

2/3

 

Lets go Blue Jays!!

 

Dickey for the win!!!

 

Jays needs their offense to get going. Twinkies pitching is the kind that should get any team on a roll. lets just hope the Jays can roll off some wins.

[John_Havok]

Unfortunately that means Thole is in lol, our catcher position is in dire straights.

 

I don't care how bad thole's bat is , JPA should never catch Dickey.... Ever again

[Jays]

Great plays all around by the Jays in that first inning.

[Dylan]

Good hustle reyes

[Dylan]

[dineke]

Buck and Tabby going gaga over Pelfry's body.

[Jays]

Buck and Pat fapping in the booth over Pelfrey's stature.

[Chappy]

Jays need to obliterate Pelfrey today.

[JPArenshitia]

lol, its sounding like the Adam Sandler 'weightlifting' skit

[BlueJayWay]

Buck and Pat are just perving here

[dineke]

Lol way to use a bar graph for percentages sportsnet

[ElNik2013]

Reyes has had a few baserunning blunders in the little time he's played this year.

[Chappy]

Jays better tee off on Pelfrey today, this guy is terrible.

[BlueJayWay]

Pelfry looks like crap.

But he's got a great body....so big and strong....wide shoulders....

[Shogun89]

Chris Davis wtf. Dude's going to have 40 by the All-Star break.

 

He should be getting a "random" drug test sometime soon.
