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

[eastcoastjaysfan]

I'm with you, this is entertaining lol

 

JFaS is a super smart dude who contributes a lot to this board, but the way he baits people into arguments is super irritating. He could get his point across in a much less polarizing manner (even if he isn't trying to be polarizing.. i.e. my way is not always the highway).

 

I've only read a few of Gruber's posts but I got a headache from at least three of them so he's got the edge in retard points. It's impossible to deny that some of the stuff JFaS has produced is legit. It's like saying that the world is flat.

 

But I could not imagine getting a beer on a Friday night at the Dome (after a long f***ing work week) only to break into a dead serious conversation regarding DiPS or other advanced statistical stuff. I'd rather drink beer and check out the two blonde hunnies down in the front row while waiting for some dingerz. But I'd gladly go home and read some articles on Fangraphs after the game or during my downtime. Best of both worlds.

 

Both groups stress themselves out unnecessarily. The older, traditional folks get their panties in a bunch calling the SABR guys nerds and dorks while the younger, more technical guys take the sarcasm/snark to a whole different level.

so much hard contact tonight

[Convo]

Morrow always seems to have these unlucky games. He shouldn't of even given up more than 1 run in the last inning if luck was more on his side.

[eastcoastjaysfan]

Come on Morrow finish this inning out.

[Orgfiller]

Bring on the JPA comparisons! lol

[GD]

insert reactionary comment about how Navarro's blocking is worse than Arencibia's

[eastcoastjaysfan]

Good stuff. Get that pitch count up and get into the pen.

Beat you to it, you're slipping bro.

[ColdPint]

Watching Morrow pitch drives me crazy. He struggles to put anyone away with two strikes, and he is constantly stepping off the mound and walking around. Get the ball, pitch the ball.

[theblujay]

This reminds me how JJ was "unlucky" every game last year even though it was clear as day he was fooling no one. But that was to a whole other degree

You hit it on the nail. If we were all outside no one will pull out their phones and start reading off Fangraphs or talk about UZR or wRC+. If we're at the dome we'd be cracking jokes and eventually heckling lol. If it's at a bar the conversation is probably loosely baseball and more about who the hot chick at the table over there is lol

Hard to disagree with this but you're also talking about a guy that's often a strike-out leader so maybe it just seems that way.

[Atothe]

Spanky hit us with the "lets go bluejays" chant

[Atothe]

Ya I'm not going to sit at a game and pull out my calculator or look something up. I'd watch for enjoyment, but I'd give credit where it's due.

 

That actually makes me feel a lot better about you. I actually had my doubts lol

[saskjayfan]

just a bit high

[theblujay]

If I was batting I wouldn't move the bat off my shoulder

[fatcowxlive]

Melk is fire

[Orgfiller]

Melky with another line drive, sweet.

[Atothe]

Melky!

[TwistedLogic]

If Arencibia was catching Archer tonight, he'd have had 5 passed balls by this point.

[saskjayfan]

come on Colby..you're due

[Convo]

If I was batting I wouldn't move the bat off my shoulder

 

why ?

[Orgfiller]

That outside corner is guaranteed to Archer, not taking anything away from Hannigan but Morrow HAS had some pitches in the same spot that haven't been called.

[theblujay]

why ?

 

Archer is all over the place

[Convo]

Is Colby ever not in a 1-2 or 0-2 count?

Oh f***, you mean I'm the only one that does that?

[Angrioter]
