Scoreboard Watching Thread 2014

[NorthOf49]

Now that there's a reason to care about what happens to every other team in the AL, we need a dedicated thread to discuss their games! (Around Baseball is more for news and has gotten as saturated as GDTs recently)

 

--------------------------------

Today's relevant schedule (most to least relevant):

 

1. New York at St. Louis (8:15 pm)

2. Baltimore at Milwaukee (8:10 pm)

3. Atlanta at Boston (7:05 pm)

4. Los Angeles at Seattle (10:10 pm)

5. Texas at Minnesota (8:10 pm)

6. Cleveland at Chicago (8:10 pm)

7. Houston at Kansas City (2:10 pm)

--------------------------------

I would also like to point out that the Jays are just a half game back of the A's and Tigers for best record in the AL.

Nice! Better run differential than the Tigers too.

It's impressive considering they were 4 games under .500 just a few weeks ago.

Nice thread.

Kuroda vs Miller: Advantage Cards

Bud Norris vs Gallardo: Toss up? Probably advantage Gallardo

Gavin Floyd vs John Lackey: Toss up. Floyd hasn't pitched much this year

 

We're in tough tonight against Archer so hopefully we don't lose any ground.

I thought we were in tough last night against Cobb so i really don't know what to think tonight. The offense seems to keep on keeping on despite what i think lol.

And we've played a tougher schedule than Oakland

[G-Snarls]

Blue Jays 76 home runs

 

Next best in the AL? Oakland with 58

Best wRC+ in baseball at 116, next is Oakland at 112. Colorado's run scoring advantage is back to being mostly a product of park factors.

Remeber when we took Romero over him

STFU don't do this

 

We still could have had McCutchen instead too

 

LOL

Has been said 100 times on here - at least we didn't epically fail as badly as Seattle did in 2005

 

What a draft class that turned out to be...

so I should bet a 3 team parlay of Yanks, O's and Jays?

 

Not saying you are wrong often but...

Miller's peripherals have been bad, I definitely think the Yankees have the upper hand. The other two are toss ups.

No, our pick was probably worse all things considered. Seattle didn't sign Jeff Clement to a $30M extension.

I'm sure Jeff Clement grew up to be a really nice young man.

One of the best in history. Jays only got Romero which isn't as bad as the Cubs, M's and Astros.

Quality picks 1-45 in the draft. Including multiple franchise players.

[TheHurl]

2nd to the A's in Runs/Game in the AL.

 

8th in the AL in Runs/Game in Away games.

..

no one wants to hear that this stadium is one of the biggest home run parks in baseball.

[eastcoastjaysfan]

Was going to make fun of the Rays for their first pick in that draft but then realized that they also took Hellickson that year so it wasn't that bad for them. Also pretty impressive to see them take Tommy Hunter, Ike Davis, and Wade Miley in the 18th,19th, and 20th round respectively (even if they didn't sign any of them).

[BigBounceyBlueBalls]

Question is Rogers really a extreme hitters park or does the teams make up of power first run producing make it seem that way even more soo?

Man you're a boner. Hope we crush your s***** rays and make fish stew with what's left of them

How many accounts do you have anyway? This one being your troll bait ''I don't even cheer for the jays bcuz mngment suks naow. Oh but I spend most of my days contributing to this forum''

The guy is a mod, furthest thing from a troll. Also he probably attends more jays games than most on this forum.

More like Archer is in tough against us

[jaysfan2014]

Royals are being pummeled by the Astros right now. Not a good thing for the Royals, who have the Jays next, especially if their bullpen gets used heavily.
