And a walk for Lawrie. And BTW, hopefully Houston is clobbering Brooklyn in that NBA game for the Raptors sake.

[fatcowxlive]

f*** I'd say bunt Goins but Diaz is worse.

 

IF hit and run works man

[eastcoastjaysfan]

Really professional AB there Lawrie.

[John_Havok]

Jesus Buck, I guaranf***ingtee Maddon is not listening to you.... Ever!

[fatcowxlive]

Run now Lawrie

[Convo]

Maddon thinks he's soooooooooo smart.... and it's probably true

0 reason to bunt in this situation.

[eastcoastjaysfan]

Put the hit and run on here. Let's go Goins.

[Convo]

Joe Maddon.... look what I can do, look what I can do

No s***, bunting is usually stupid regardless but you'd certainly never do it with 1 out

I meant if Melky was next you would bunt

Hutch vs. Cobb is such an interesting matchup.

 

A year from now, could we be thinking about Hutch the way people thought about Cobb going into 2013? I guess that's kind of the best case scenario, but I can definitely see it happening (Hutch looking like an underrated #3 type with even more in his skillset going into 2015).

[Jimcanuck]

good at bat by Goins.... good contact

[jaysfan2014]

Better to bunt with no outs. Now, let's see what Diaz can do..

[G-Snarls]

good at bat by Goins.... good contact

 

"Productive out"

They are very comparable pitchers IMO. Not overpowering stuff, rely mostly on fastball command and offspeed, deceptive delivery.

[G-Snarls]

Come on Diaz

 

Ball in play!

[eastcoastjaysfan]

Ahhh that's a little low.

[fatcowxlive]

Diaz has a great Eye

 

Cobb up to 71 pitches near 4 innings... great job!

[G-Snarls]

Cobb does NOT want to face Melky this inning

[Convo]

Didn't realize Diaz never had a big league hit... dat color commentating

[o2cui2i]

couple of nice pitches from Cobb.

You never force someone to hit with 2 outs, even if it was Melky you'd still just be giving an out away, unless the batter was the pitcher or something.

[over500]

Diaz looks like he's 4"10'

[o2cui2i]

Didn't realize Diaz never had a big league hit... dat color commentating

 

but he has a world series ring.

[Atothe]

Diaz having another good at bat, are these the same jays? Beautiful job

[theblujay]

A couple of nice ABs from Diaz

I don't find Hutchison particularly deceptive.

[SpeedyGose]

At this rate we should be getting to the Rays BP by the 6th
