GDT(2/4): Toronto Blue Jays @ Tampa Bay Rays - Hutchison vs. Cobb - 7:10 PM ET

[Captain Adama]

Lol man, he may have been a dictator of sorts but he didn't commit massacres on his own people, he's also one of the only people ever of significance to speak up about the US' ********.

 

Fair 'nuff, I was mostly referring to the insanity.

[jays_fever]

Sierra vs Moore??

 

Hard to sit Lind though...

 

What is the point of Sierra being on the team if he doesnt play. Having a big bat off the bench in Lind late is also huge

[ElNik2013]

Seitzer had some really good at bats in this game...let's hope MLB keeps letting him hit for every Blue Jays player.

[Convo]

Great game. Is Hutch the real thing? Diaz, way to contribute, we needed that to soften the Reyes blow.

[fatcowxlive]

IMO you have to sit Lind. One of the keys to Lind's success last year was that Gibby never gave in to the temptation to start playing him every day.

 

Put Kratz at catcher and Navarro at DH. If I see this, I will be so f***ing happy

[Atothe]

I'll be pretty surprised if Toronto doesn't take tomorrow's game. Matt Moore just doesn't match up well against a team with multiple patient RH power hitters. We could see the bats take off tomorrow.

 

Extactly this is a guy who walked 61 righthanded batters in 103.2 innings last year. Not good unless he found the Randy Johnson fountain of greatness

[ElNik2013]

I thought Navarro had a decent game. Threw a runner out and made the opposing pitchers work, big improvement right there over the former Jays catcher.

[Angrioter]

Tomorrow Kratz C and Navarro DH; Lind and Sierra bench

[Dylan]

I'd like to see this lineup tmrw

 

1. Lawrie 3B

2. Melky LF

3. Bautista RF

4. Edwin 1B

5. Navarro DH

6. Kratz C

7. Rasmus CF

8. Diaz SS

9. Goins 2B

I'm sitting goins, did you see what ramos did to him. Imagine what the filthy stuff of Moore is gonna do to him. Break him forever

Ya I agree, f*** it, I thought Goins would be decent vs. 2B:

 

1. Lawrie 3B

2. Melky LF

3. Bautista RF

4. Edwin 1B

5. Navarro DH

6. Kratz C

7. Rasmus CF

8. Izzy 2B

9. Diaz SS

[Caper]

I would definitely say tonights play of the game is when Ryan a Goins sacrificed himself and moved that runner up to second... Allowing Diaz to get him home.

Replace Goins with Izturis and I'd be fine with that lineup against Moore.

[Dylan]

Forgot about izzy, that's what I'd like too.

[eastcoastjaysfan]

Am I the only person who would plug Sierra in tomorrow? Let Navarro catch and DH Sierra (both hit LH well).

 

Come on guys. Congrats to Kratz for hitting a HR the other day but let's not get carried away. Sierra has flaws but he's still a better hitter.

 

1. Melky

2. Lawrie

3. Bautista

4. Edwin

5. Navarro C

6. Sierra

7. Rasmus

8. Izturis 2B

9. Diaz

I'm with you, lets give Sierra all at bats against left handers to see if he can stick

[Atothe]

thats why I'm in favor of starting lind at first so Sierra can get at bats late in the game

[ElNik2013]

I think Sierra plays tomorrow, he's the only one with no AB's so far in this season and Biggons will want to give him some AB's...Zaun will be pissed.

[eastcoastjaysfan]

I want to see what Sierra can provide for us. I know that most people here hate him but the bat speed is undeniable. If he can just limit the bonehead mistakes in the field he can be useful strictly against LHP.

[jayswin11]

I think they'll give Navarro a day off, catch Kratz and DH Sierra.

[eastcoastjaysfan]

It's the 3rd game of the year!

[fatcowxlive]

It's the 3rd game of the year!

 

lol imagine if we have to rest Navarro every 3 days

[Atothe]

I actually thunk Kratz is a better hitter than Sierra.

 

I don't necessarily disagree but he's on the roster therefore he will get at bats. He's got a over career 800 ops against Lefties in the minors.

Not sure about Sierra but I like giving Lawrie a shot to hit leadoff. His approach seems much improved this year albeit in just two games. Let's see what he can do while Reyes is out IMO.

[Atothe]

This dude is hliarious

[Ziggyy108]

This dude is hliarious

 

 

f*** YOU LIND

 

Stop making it hard to dislike you every year!!!!

[BigJuan]

adam lind is funny

[BigJuan]

Just finished watching this game. We won! The Jays approach stood out to me, seemed like a more patient team than I'm used to. Hutch looked decent too.

 

 

Yea thats was really nice to see, really made cobb work and throw strikes.

[wilko]

Great game to watch, turned into a nail biter at the end but Santos took care of it.

the defense was s***, uncharacteristic of lawrie and Idk what Rasmus was doing playing that shallow.
