GDT(1/3): Boston Red Sox @ Toronto Blue Jays - Peavy vs. Buehrle - 7:07 PM ET

[The_DH]

Zaun just called out the team for handling of McGowan. Gotta agree.

[RickyWalks]

Yes

 

Morrow vs Buccholtz

 

Dickey vs Lester

 

Son of a bitch.

 

Well.

 

Maybe he'll pitch well.

[fatcowxlive]

If the Leafs were in the playoffs, no one* would mind some pumping up and game updates in here

 

(* OK, not no one, but very few)

 

Ew no

[torontofan]

What channel are people watching the game on?

[Convo]

Lets GoOoOo jays

 

Gogo gadget buehrle

[Stangstag]

Terrible AB by Reyes

[Convo]

Lol $20 mil for mediocre SS who can't steal bases anymore or stretch doubles into triples for fear of injury, and to boot he's afraid to slide on astroturf

[Convo]

We're swinging at complete garbage

He is also one of the best hitters at his position. But yeah, I would like to dump him in the offseason and pick up a cheaper, better defender.

[John_Havok]

What the s*** is this.... Swing at strikes boys...

[Convo]

I like that Yunel Escobar guy

[IBTrini]

We're swinging at complete garbage

They are not showing any patience at the plate so far.

[Daniel Labude]

Fast ball right down the middle...popstista to thr rescue

[John_Havok]

Swing at s***** pitches, you won't see anything but.... Sure you'll get the odd mistake and may get something done a few times a week, but that half inning was probably the single worst half inning I've seen from jays hitters this year.

 

Looked like they were guessing ...and guessing very poorly

[John_Havok]

Hey look, Napoi not swinging at borderline pitches until he gets to two strikes... Takes a walk.... f***ing revolutionary

[Stangstag]

I wonder if Yunel Escobar is available with Hak-Ju Lee coming up?

 

Lol. I can't believe that people made such a big fuss over that "Maricon" thing. Only in Canada.

… or told to be aggressive at the plate. I hope they are able to adapt to the pitching or else this is going to be another long night.

Buck saying the numbers don't support Gomes being a good hitter against lefties. This guy managed the team.

 

lol

Lol. And did you see how Zaun was saying that advanced stats don't tell us how Buehrle has gotten off to such a great start?

[John_Havok]

Buck saying the numbers don't support Gomes being a good hitter against lefties. This guy managed the team.

 

He's just looking at this years 27 PA sample size. You know... Reliable data for Buck

[Convo]

Lol. And did you see how Zaun was saying that advanced stats don't tell us how Buehrle has gotten off to such a great start?

 

Well he's actually correct.

[havok24]

Damn.

[John_Havok]

Lol. And did you see how Zaun was saying that advanced stats don't tell us how Buehrle has gotten off to such a great start?

 

To be fair, Zaun thinks avg against is an advanced stat.

[Convo]

Fluke s*** double

[Daniel Labude]

Too many baserunners will doom buehrle most days...

[John_Havok]

Do you see that Rivera? Ball in the air already back towards the IF and the runner is stopped at third? Not waved around into an obvious out at the plate?

[Atothe]

no luck today for Buehlre, bloops and hard hit balls

[havok24]

Looking like this one might be a bloodbath.

[Convo]

Regression to the mean
