GDT(3/4): Kansas City Royals @ Toronto Blue Jays - Brooks vs. Stroman - 1:07 PM ET

[Inklink]

Wow that was amazing.

[HERPDERP]

Anyone noticed the crowd this game seems quiet? Despite 35K.

[Atothe]

Man lawrie is good, Happ and Redmond eating up innings. Even when the jays are bad they're doing good things

[Candy Maldonado]

Good job boys!!! f*** you Metallijay.

its been a blowout since the first, not really an exciting game

[Ziggyy108]

Alright!!

[Ziggyy108]

Stroman needs to stay in rotation.

 

His upside is light years ahead of Happ and Hendricks.

 

Id actually like to see Happ kicked outta the rotation. f*** that guy.

[Atothe]

Nope I would be pretty pumped. But it is just one start. Lets not all call him Sonny Gray with a 14 inch cock. Lets ease up here.

for saying cock or being racist?

[jb22]

He threw a quality start against the Royals lets not get to crazy. Yall acting like he threw 9 innings and struck out 18. Manage your expectations this is why the lows are so bad on this board.

 

Personally I'm not as excited about him pitching well in one start, but more for the fact that we may have found a solid rotation piece that's cheap and didn't cost any prospects. If he can eat some innings and pitch like a solid #4 even it'll be a big boost over throwing out guys like hendriks.

[ElNik2013]

If it wasn't for Navarro, Stroman would've thrown 6 shutout innings with 10K. It's ok, we'll take the outing he had, now back to AAA kid.

After the Jays got up 8-1 or whatever I went outside to mow the lawn and listed on my phone via headphones.

 

As I passed by this corner of the yard, Redmond was pitching and the metaphor struck me as funny.

Overall was a good game for Stroman, hopefully he can adjust as soon as more hitters see him.

If that is your actual yard, nice grass. I admire your lawn 100%. Nothing worse than walking down a nice street in a nice neighborhood and seeing that one lawn that just sucks.

 

Edit: Actually on further inspection, a little patchy in the middle. Kinda yellow too.

 

6/10 would only bang, not marry.

LOL I suppose it is

 

And yeah that is my back hard. Pretty rough spring out east. Hope it looks better in a month or so. I'm not one of those guys that spends hours on the yard, but I know what you mean - has to be kept neat.

[G-Snarls]

Front looks a bit better but not as good as usual for late May

 

 

Gotta clean up the grass more. yuck

Where in the east? The other day it was like 25 degrees in Toronto and it was 5 degrees in Sydney (where my parents live).

Jays were 5th a few days ago. Have a feeling the rank is gonna move up a bit more after today's numbers are registered. Gonna be hard to dethrone the Angels though, especially when Hamilton comes back.

We still need a front end type to be a contender.

 

Totally agree, but if he can pitch like that consistently with his stuff, maybe we only need one pitcher instead of two.

wait what, are we seriously sticking with f***ing liam hendriks

[guylaroche5]

Wait is he advocating for lian Hendricks to stay over Stroman?

Anti-stat trolling, grammar fails, and a complete lack of knowledge in one post. Sweet.

Lol whatever helps you sleep at night. A couple of you are butt hurt because I won't over hype Stroman and I'm not Loup's biggest fan. Yall need a hobby.

Hopefully it warms up.
