[Inklink]

Bad Lind tonight.

[eastcoastjaysfan]

Those were hittable balls Lindy.

[Corporal Valdal]

[Corporal Valdal]

[BigCecil]

Lind only against RHP?

 

um ya...have you been on another planet?

[Corporal Valdal]

um ya...have you been on another planet?

 

Have you the past 3 or 4 games?

[Convo]

Tolleson has quietly been really good, lol.

 

Edit: My bad, jinxed him

[Corporal Valdal]

Tolleson has quietly been really good, lol.

 

Agreed but spoke to soon he has surprised me though

[Unis]

My boy is up....RBI coming

[Solaxys]

so 3 leadoff hitters get on (3 sep innings), not one score... should I be worried? or are we just going to hope for more and more HRs to win

[Jaysfan_85]

Lawl what ... advanced stats are meaningless when a guy strikes out more then he hits

 

Oh wow you're being serious. I thought for sure you were being sarcastic. Most power hitters strike out a lot so who gives a s***. Its too early to tell about Gose but offensively if he were to have the same amount of at bats as Rasmus he would have less hits, less doubles, less Hrs, but because Rasmus has bigger swings and is more aggressive he will strike out more. But thats any easy trade off. If Gose was an elite OBP guy, who could steal 50 bases and play his D I would much rather have him than Rasmus. But he isn't. He simply isn't very good at much of anything offensively other than running fast.

 

This is basically what happens with all exciting prospects. They come up and show flashes of brilliance and everyone loses their s***. Remember JPA. But once the new car smell wears off you'll be craving for the old reliable car.

[Convo]

Agreed but spoke to soon he has surprised me though

 

It's funny that a 30 year old can come up and perform better than he ever has at any level.

[eastcoastjaysfan]

Damn just missed it.

 

Shut the door Casey.

[Trouba95]

Here comes Casey Rivera.

1-2-3...Jays win.

[Atothe]

Casey Rivera time

[Candy Maldonado]

CJ Money

Edit: My bad, jinxed him

 

I find Tolleson intriguing...he's not young, but he's never been given a real shot in the bigs. He's fast, a fairly good defender and has a career .779 OPS in the minors. You'd have thought he would have got more of a shot at some point in the past.

[Corporal Valdal]

what is Melky going to sign for people think?

[eastcoastjaysfan]

Yawn, one down.

[Atothe]

2 pitches 1 out

[Corporal Valdal]

my guess is 4 years $60 Million with a option for year 5 and 6

[saskjayfan]

what is Melky going to sign for people think?

 

pretty good discount I think....he loves it here...

[Corporal Valdal]

pretty good discount I think....he loves it here...

 

$15 million ??

[Atothe]

f*** that I'd tell melky bye

[Corporal Valdal]

f*** that I'd tell melky bye

 

And replace him with who?

[saskjayfan]

my guess is 4 years $60 Million with a option for year 5 and 6

 

4 years 46 with an option for the 5th.

[kgm1]

Not even a witch doctor can fix the Rays . Maddon getting stupid . Wonder if he thought the guy could make it rain there in the Trop

[Inklink]

Clone Lawrie please.

[eastcoastjaysfan]
