GDT(3/3): Toronto Blue Jays @ Texas Rangers - Dickey vs. Martinez - 3:05 PM ET

Why dive when you're guaranteed $106 million over the life of your contract? -Jose Reyes

[Bunchedundies]

I hope Anthopolous enjoys watches this pathetic bullpen he has assembled.

 

Why is redmond/Rogers still on the roster?

[ElNik2013]

Redmond hadn't pitched since May 10th, I can't say I blame him.

[Bunchedundies]

ROFL, gong show.

[closetjaysfan]

Oh gawd

[eastcoastjaysfan]

Why is redmond/Rogers still on the roster?

 

Can justify keeping Redmond.

 

Rogers is a complete blackhole.

[closetjaysfan]

Its actually quite understandable that they are falling apart here. They have had a long stretch without a day off... looks like that is what most of these guys are thinking about

[ElNik2013]

f***in' Reyes made Lawrie drop that, ump with a pity out call.

[Bunchedundies]

LAwrie doesn't look comfortable at second to me.

You're right, they've played 20 games in a row without a day off and have scored 5, 4, 4, 2, 4 and 2 in their last 6 games including this one.

[ElNik2013]

So why didn't Gibbons bring in Loup or Cecil to face Moreland last inning?

 

Yes, it's hindsight, but it just seems Gibbons always leaves Dickey in the game too long.

True he does but I think dickey was only at 80 + pitches.

[ElNik2013]

Dickey's looking more and more like a 6-inning pitcher and Gibbons needs to realize it.

[jaysfan2014]

Regardless of what happens, depending on the Yankees/Pirates game, we'll be 1.5 back (division) and 0.5 games out of the wild card, as Baltimore stunk it up vs. the Royals.

True, but you cannot keep losing games like today, they add up, Jays have given away several games this year, there record would be way better, and should be.

[GD]

We're a third of the way through the year and Dickey has basically been a hair above replacement-level. The team needs him contributing at a league average pace, at the very least.

 

He's on pace for 3 wins, lol.

 

Granted, his RA9 and xFIP are s***, but as of right now he's on a good pace.

[o2cui2i]

wheels fell off the apple cart. was bound to happen at some point. Two wins on dominating pitching in a row. we were due for a starter to s*** himself.

Offense and Defense was more an issue imo, Dickey was not bad today really, offense has been bad 5 games in a row now.

[Bunchedundies]

OK, lawrie back to third.

[eastcoastjaysfan]

Yeah

 

Take back the nice things I said about Francisco's defense earlier in this thread.

 

He's got cement hands.

[ElNik2013]

I won't blame Francisco for his s***** play today, he is what he is.

[o2cui2i]

Offense and Defense was more an issue imo, Dickey was not bad today really, offense has been bad 5 games in a row now.

 

and that's why I wrote that they won on dominating pitching. offense has been terrible...

 

the end of this game has been a farce. cant even watch now...

 

off day tomorrow so we wont lose.

[Bunchedundies]

lol.

[ElNik2013]

I agree, I'll take 2 of 3 on the road every time. They scored 2 runs on Friday, 4 yesterday and 2 so far today. The pitching carried them and today the defense joined the offense in laying an egg.

[Bunchedundies]

Tough schedule coming up, gonna have to get the offense going after today.

[Bunchedundies]

Rally time, Grand slam to tie.

[Bunchedundies]

Lawrie could not get around on a 89 MPH fastball down the middle.

[eastcoastjaysfan]

FFS Lawrie.

 

This guy just cannot get it going with the bat.

[Bunchedundies]

Looks behind the ball all the time....

[ElNik2013]

At least Andrus dove, Rangers fans should be happy.
