2013 All Star Game - Bautista and Cecil in, EE reserve

[fatcowxlive]

That and all those players were already in the Jays org before the off season moves.

 

Yup and like BTS said, only Delebar was an AA move. Bautsita, EE and Cecil are JPR era

[jays_fever]

Not just that, but all were in the Jays org before AA took over almost 4 years ago.

 

If richardi scraped the whole "only take college players, near mlb ready crap" and drafted better, he would have made a fine gm here. His 5 year plan still urks me to now end though.

[flafson]

Any idea how i can get my phone to auto vote (or send multiple times) Delabar number?

I saw on TV you can send "A2" to the number 101010 which will be faster than typing their image online, plus i have free text.

[fatcowxlive]

lol what the f***ing f***?

 

Facebook posts are from the casuals bro lol

 

Bautista's not hitting 1.000 with 100 homers so far so he's 'underpreforming' but Davis hitting over .300? Overpreforming!

 

So Davis >>>>>>>>>>>> Bautista!

k serious question why isn't arencibia being looked at for the ASG.

You should start a thread for this, that's an excellent question.

This can't be a serious question....

[baseballsss]

he should really be tweeting the world about this, this is an outrage.#busterposeyslevel

[baseballsss]

I wonder if Arencibia himself thinks he should be an All-Star. He probably does.

 

he leads catchers in homers and rbis(or close to it) abd thinks he plays good defence. He called himself a top ten catcher and compared himeself to posey. Of course he believes he should be.

[baseballsss]

This can't be a serious question....

 

leads catchers in homers he should atleast be at the homerun derby.

[John_Havok]

Ok now I know you're not serious. I'm quite relieved. For a moment I thought you were a blithering idiot.

I tried to text 101010 but it wants me that it might cost money even though i have Mobilicity with unlimited text. Is it just a false warning or does it actually cost anything?

wouldn't doubt if they charge you .25cents or .50 cents for the text. i wouldn't unless you don't care.

Online it says standard fees may apply, standard means free but hard to tell really.

Usually the ones that cost money are those scams that text you back with some "info".

yah true...i've always just stayed away from texting crap to many scams out there.

[flafson]

I just sent like 70 votes through texting in about a minute so it's much faster than doing online.

[Deadpool]

 

Actually, he was the guy I had been voting for even before I saw this tweet!

[dineke]

Freeman ain't beating the Puig.

[flafson]

Freeman ain't beating the Puig.

 

If it means Delabar get's some help for their guy getting some of our help, i could care less about Puig.

[jays_fever]

For what its worth, Freeman wanted to play for Canada in the WBC. He'll play next tourney when Morneau retired

[dineke]

I was going to vote Delabar but then I saw Koji on it too, so I'm obligated to vote for him.

I know I am making a big deal out of nothing, but since this game matters...Trout in LF while Jones is in CF? lulz

Because Trout can play CF but Jones can't play LF

[Arkadium]

Pretty happy with the Blue Jays going to the AS game. On a side note, it's ridiculous that Longoria is not going.... the guy is easily top 5 position player in all of baseball IMO.

[Orgfiller]

I know the Jays have a lot of support, but it's going to be hard for Delabar to make it with a Yankee in there, the Yankees have a massive fanbase, if Jeter wasn't injured I'm sure he would have made it again by a landslide no matter how good or bad he was playing. Don't rule out the Sox either, good fanbase plus savezz is not a good combination in Delabar's favor.

[eastcoastjaysfan]

That's great for Brett

 

Very well deserved.

[eastcoastjaysfan]

If you look at the numbers, it's confusing how Machado made it ahead of Longoria. Sure, Machado has the doubles and is the slightly sexier pick, but Longo has 27 points of wRC+ on Machado and is a similar defender. Has been doing it for much longer too.

 

99% of the voters have no idea what rRC+ is.

 

Machado is basically the new Jeter. Prepare yourself for years and years of over-the-top dramatic stuff when it comes to him. Great, great player but it'll get nauseating after a while. Hopefully he keeps his nose clean.

[fatcowxlive]

How the f*** did the Dodgers get 2 players on the final vote. That's rediculous. Especially Puig... SSS.

 

Because Puigmainia lol

[Frag]

Congrats on the three. Well deserved!

 

Now, time to delegate for Delabar! (weak motto, I know, but just vote for Delabar!)
