Ricky Romero Bandwagon

[saskjayfan]

The Ricky Romero bandwagon is making a stop for anyone who would like to jump aboard. Why? Well who the hell else do we have to start?

That's a Sad Ass Bandwagon

Ricky Kasmir is going to show you some things this year....not that I would bet large sums of money on it...but dare to dream.

[Sammy225]

Hutch is the savior this year if there is one.

Hutch is the savior this year if there is one.

 

I tend to agree...but I think they should start him in AAA and limit his innings early...let him work fastball, change and save his arm and then bring him up june 1ish....hopefully romero can eat some innings..still has the movement and velocity.

Is it true Ricky hit 94mph today?

[Jonzo]

Is it true Ricky hit 94mph today?

 

Yes

[bendera3]

If RR can get back to finding the strike zone it would make not signing another pitcher this offseason easier to handle. It would be like getting a new pitcher since he's so far down on the depth chart you almost forget he still exists.

 

Maybe he has a new girlfriend?

Holy s***... that looks like a painful death

[gruber92]

Yes, velocity has never been his problem, it's been control, and he was around the zone, good news, still early though.

 

Actually i remember him only topping out at 90-91 during his last stint with the big club, but yes control has been his demise.

[Jimcanuck]

perfect guy for Crazy Town

Too bad it hit the fans in the stands and not the catcher's mitt.

[wilko]

I forgot he was still in the org.

I refuse to get on board. Thanks for the invite. LOL

[G-Snarls]

I know what you mean. The only reason I still care that he is in the org is that they have to pay him 15M between this year and next whether he wins 15 games for the Jays or loses 15 for the Bisons. That blows.

[theblujay]

I'm on. Why not

[G-Snarls]

Agree. He and Stroman could swing the club's fortunes significantly.

 

Problem is we should only be counting on one of them. Due to signing NO ONE to help with the rotation we would need both (or a Happ/Romero miracle) to be even adequate in the SP department.

That guy probably died. Only one that fails is the one that tried to make a joke of it in a GIF, and anyone else who uses it.

Nice try playing morality police. No one was injured.

That's good that no one was hurt. I feel a lot less guilty for it making me laugh now.

[Ziggyy108]

We are paying the guy 7 million one way or another.

 

May as well give him every opportunity to make the rotation.

 

What do we honestly have to lose this year

[The_DH]

I have my fingers crossed for RR. Him and McGowan.

[saskjayfan]

If Romero makes the rotation I probably won't watch baseball until hes DFA'ed again.

 

3964 posts since may 2013, somehow I doubt you'll quit watching baseball if Romero makes the roster...lol

[BlueJayWay]

please let's not do this

[Caper]

Ricky's bandwagon is a pretty lonely place.

[fatcowxlive]

I'm on the Romero bandwagon, as long as McGowan's spot doesn't get taken

I'm pulling for both and even more after the herd on here is pulling for both to fail.

I don't understand how so many on this board really want some to fail . I think the herd effect rules on this board . Why the f*** would anyone hope he doesn't start a game . If he gets starts that means he has his control back . Hell he always had good stuff . He gets back to throwing strikes with his breaking balls and able to spot his fastball and we have another mid rotation starter and possibly we could deal him .

 

Are some on this board hoping everything falls apart so they can keep whining and f***ing complaining . are you Jays fans or just internet whiners .

[kgm1]

Yes, velocity has never been his problem, it's been control, and he was around the zone, good news, still early though.

 

Jay ,I'm sure pulling for him to work it out at AAA early this year and come back . not likely going to happen fast but that would give us starters to deal if he came back and was a mid rotation starter
