GDT(3/3): Toronto Blue Jays @ Detroit Tigers - Happ vs. Verlander - 1:08 PM ET

[Atothe]

And he nose breathes in to the microphone all the time

 

Worst broadcaster we've had in years

 

Siddall is so good but the TV stole him

 

Its temporary, Tabler is coming back right?

[G-Snarls]

Its temporary, Tabler is coming back right?

 

I presume so

 

Siddall is better than Tabler - they should demote Tabby to the radio but he'd probably quit if they did LOL

[labadee]

make him work!!!

[Trouba95]

Take some pitches otherwise Verlander will go 9.

[Solaxys]

Did we miss a scouting report? Why are we being so aggressive

[labadee]

jays need to be patient. even after giving up 2 hits, after 1.1, he's only thrown 13 pitches

[labadee]

see, the beauty of being patient. one on, let's case him in

[Atothe]

Did we miss a scouting report? Why are we being so aggressive

 

lawrie being anxious

[Atothe]

2 slow catchers back to back not a good idea Gibby

[KingKat]

I presume so

 

Siddall is better than Tabler - they should demote Tabby to the radio but he'd probably quit if they did LOL

 

Siddall is better than Tabby but it's Buck who is the real problem. He drags Siddal into the same drawn out diatribes that he drags Tabby into. The main difference is that Tabby seems almost gleeful to become Buck's echo chamber and belabour the same points while Siddal is thankfully a bit more reserved.

[Atothe]

Happ K!

[Solaxys]

Even happ is doing better than Dickey

[Atothe]

Happ KK!!

[Trouba95]

Should Gose drag bunt here? If he gets on base, Reyes is 5-8 off of Verlander.

[G-Snarls]

Good work Happ

[G-Snarls]

How amazing would it be if Happ somehow gave us 160 innings of middle-rotation caliber performance this year??

 

I'm certainly not counting on it, but it actually seems like it might be plausible

[G-Snarls]

Nice job Happ, he's pitching very well. *knocks on wood*

 

Yeah I'm feeling superstituous about it too

 

Maybe he DOES have it in him... *knocks on wood*

[Sammy225]

Nice job Happ, he's pitching very well. *knocks on wood*

 

Could make a very serviceable 5th starter. I know its early but he has got me a little bit more confident in him as of late. And f*** superstition i am knocking on granite.

[o2cui2i]

Too many first pitch swings

[G-Snarls]

Dammit Gose

 

Did he go around???

[NorthOf49]

Happ's xFIP on the season down to 4.33. That's good enough to keep running him out there.

[G-Snarls]

Crap

 

Verlander is back to being Verlander? Or are we just helping him out?

[Solaxys]

Looks like Verlander is going 9 innings

[labadee]

Verlander is gonna go 9 innings at this point. Challenging to beat Alvarez's 88 pitch SO

[G-Snarls]

Yeah, I mean when we say Happ sucks, it's not referring to whoever that guy is.

 

There may be two of him?

 

Yeah, THIS one looks like a very good 4/5 starter

[JohnnyLonghorn]

Cmon Jays take some pitches

[Sammy225]

Crap

 

Verlander is back to being Verlander? Or are we just helping him out?

 

Verlander is one of the best despite his last few starts he is tough to beat.

[Atothe]

27 pitches in 3 inning for Verlander smh

[Atothe]

I thought that was gonna go out whew! thank god lol

[labadee]

Crap

 

Verlander is back to being Verlander? Or are we just helping him out?

lots of first pitch swings. definitely helping him out a bit
