hate AA for the move. Dickey cant help that's he's not very good.

 

I don't hate anyone involved with the Jays, but I really hated the move and still do...

 

But when did "he can't help it if he's not good" become something that mattered to sports fans? Remember when Aaron Hill or Josh Towers were booed out of town? That's the nature of being a fan of sport, ragging on bad players.

ok, if I cant root for bus crashes, can I root for a bench clearing brawl with several suspensions?

Dickey will go on a huge roll at some point. He will always have his ups and downs, but when he is going right he is devastating.

 

 

good comment on changing speeds/locations...weird to say but he needs to use his slower 60+ knuckler more...agree when he's on he can be lights out...so can't be afraid to use gut feel ie. taking him out of the game/if playoffs, when to start him...

I simply dislike having R.A. Dickey on the Jays and I am going to continue to be vocal about it until he is gone, or he does something to change my mind about it. If he was brought in to be a #4 starter, I would be pleased with the results, he was not and I am not.

 

All will NOT be forgiven by me if he does go another 6 shutout innings

Frank Viola III debut as a Knuckleballer

3 scoreless, HBP, 2 walks, 4 K's (Groundouts-flyouts: Viola 4-1)

 

If he ends up being effective as the original Frank Viola, we scored.

That's a problem in the post season

 

In a 5 game ALDS do you use him game 1 or 2?? Or do you wait and see how those go?

I have very little faith in a long roll from Dickey, but I would love to be proven wrong... As long as it's not Pedroia, Pierzynski or Papelbon, I would be happy to have any player contribute to the success of the Jays (those guys can collectively eat from the world's largest bag of dicks.)

Hello All,

Long time reader, first time poster. I was lucky enough to enjoy the two World Series the 2nd year I moved to canada. Back to back was nice. Nothing ever since.

 

I feel posters here should chill a bit on RA. A ton of negativity here when his record is pretty solid at home.

He is going win tonight's game and go 7 innings strong !

Nope. He sucks, I don't trust him and I probably never will. But as long as he gets the team the win, who cares.

Welcome to the board, but I should just give you some advice to never mention win-loss record indicating how good a pitcher is.

 

Thanks!

Yes you can. You can also wish for a stomach virus where all players on both teams get vicious uncontrollable diarrhea for a couple weeks. You can pick which one suites you better.

He has over 60 pitches in 3 innings, no 7 innings

Thanks for chiming in. I agree, the hate for RA is a bit much
