Go Blue Jays!

 

Despite Zaun bragging about Boston's pitching--he's an idiot. Lackey's got a losing record(and a rising ERA--he has stunk post All-Star break). Dempster has been terrible, Lester hasn't improved much from his awful 2012, Doubront has been hit and miss, and Buchholz is STILL on the DL. Oh, and Peavy pitched badly vs. the Royals last start--not even K'ing anybody, and is an injury risk.

/

The only reason Boston is contending is more due to its #1 offense(605 runs) and #1 walk rate (436 BBs).

[Jays]

I love that the BlueJays rotation now has Redmond and Weber...

[digiblader]

WAS a stud. A 4.50 ERA in 2013 isn't impressive. He's a far cry from his San Diego days--injuries and age have taken a toll on his peripherals. And pitching in Boston isn't really a good thing for him..

Awesome, thanks Charlie!

What are the Jays going to do with their starting rotation next year? Unless you're Boston or Tampa, that is a question all around the AL East. Baltimore has questions with their rotation(Hammel and Feldman are free agents, Bundy's out till 2015), Yankees are losing Kuroda, Pettite and Hughes to free agency(Hughes), Japan(Kuroda) or retirement(Pettite), with nothing on their farm to replace them, and no ideas on Phelps and Pineda. And of course, there's us..

[Dylan]

I really don't care what happens for now on... Just hope for an exciting game.

All I care about is homers from our sluggers to pad their numbers lol

[Dylan]

lol. And the proper way to display class is to call somebody both a slapdick and a jackass on Twitter?

 

Twitter is a funny thing.

 

Come on Izturis!

[Jays]

Lawrie is a great player.

[Dylan]

I don't often swear.. but izturis is really f***ing useless as a starter

[Howard Roark]

Lawrie ups the AVG to .253, holy sheeeit..........

[Angrioter]

Redmond stuff and Swing-miss? How?

[Dylan]

lol bad call

[Dylan]

Todd keeping us in this one so far

[Dylan]

0 for 23 and counting

[GD]

lol JP

[Howard Roark]

Here's to hoping that JP finishes the season hitting under .200

 

Let's see the FO ignore THAT.
