GDT(1/3): Toronto Blue Jays @ Boston Red Sox - Happ vs. Doubront - 7:10 PM ET

[jaysfan2014]

With the win, we will leapfrog the Yankees and move into the wild card spot, and could even take the lead in the wild card, pending the result of the Astros/Angels game. (BTW, the Astros are actually closing in on Boston in the standings.. it's been an awful year for the Red Sox.)

MVP of the game: Crafty Farrell.

These are the games we blew earlier in the season.. if only we had casey all season

Santos blows that save.

 

Atta boy Casey.

Meanwhile, Tampa continues to plummet in the standings as they are losing to the A's in the 9th. A's lost Crisp, however.

I approve of this celebratory gif after all wins (and particularly sexy losses...)

Just saw the replay for Lawrie's webgem.

 

Jesus... That was insane.

It was that much more sexy in real time

Who doubted Janssen? They're dumn.

 

I don't think anyone did, that big papi foul ball was scary. He got every inch of that ball

4 studs and the best framer in the game. It's not their best lineup ever, but not "ouch" worthy. Remember, we're the team that threw out Ryan Goins, Jonathan Diaz, and Moises Sierra in the same lineup.

Pitch framing does not make up for Molina's horrendous bat. The guy is below replacement level.

 

That's a terrible lineup for a team expected to contend.

Disagree, that's an ouch lineup (I'm talking offensively) compared to the AL East. Sure it's better than San Diego's but that's not the point.

big win. +0.5 games in standings.

Enjoy it while it lasts. Will be shut out in the next 2 games by Buchholz and Lester.

Hey too bad you're trying to be negative for irrational reasons.

 

Buchholz has been hit extremely hard this year. If he shuts them out it will be the stars aligning. Lester quite possibly though.

Again, it's not the best lineup ever. And who gives a s*** if Molina can't hit. His framing alone makes him very valuable.

 

If you really want to see a sorry lineup, look at the Twins last season.

Isn't this framing stuff still sort of in the development stage? I can buy that it's very important but Steamer wasn't using it before the season started.

He's -.5 WAR this year with only 55 PA.

 

You cannot just say "who gives a s***" when a guy is that bad. They're basically an NL team when he's out there.

I don't think they're using pitch framing yet. I could be mistaken but I know that the projections did not include it. Still, my point was that offensively that lineup is terrible, especially for the AL East. I find it hard to argue against that.
