GDT(3/3): Toronto Blue Jays @ New York Yankees - Hutchison vs. Phelps - 7:05 PM ET

[mitchf]

This inning suggests that Delabar is now the de facto "you're horrible, go out there and embarrass yourself" reliever on the squad.

[Orgfiller]

Yes, but francisco has cost them more than he has given them.

 

That's incorrect, look at his WAR.

[Convo]

Ha.

[eastcoastjaysfan]

That is insane. That ball is right down the middle.

[theblujay]

Swept by the Yankees when we have a chance to prove we're legit...

 

I'm not buying in yet that's for sure.

[Governator]

Throw the get me over split finger.

[StamafiaNeigeratsu]

This team f***ing sucks

[eastcoastjaysfan]

Like Delabar is obviously a talented guy. Good stuff and throws hard. If the organization actually valued him they would allow him to go down for a while and work it out. They've just completely mismanaged this situation.

Gibbons has the "are you f***ing kidding me" look on his face again. this is going a lot like the year he got fired.

His stuff is not nearly as good as last season, plus he doesn't throw as hard and his command is now s***. Guy has gone from being a dependable reliever to less-than mop-up duty in the blink of an eye.

[L54]

So much derp from Delabar

[StamafiaNeigeratsu]

So where are those people who were saying it was just a minor slump

 

Time to admit you were wrong, everyone could see this was coming...

As crazy as Alex is, he's not crazy enough to fire Gibbons in season. He knows that's a terrible look for himself.

Weird thing is, he mentioned this in jest a couple weeks back, should've left it alone!

Gibby is one of AA's last cards to play. If s*** goes really bad you fire him in the offseason and then AA gets a little bit more rope with a new manager.

[Chappy]

Don't worry guys, the playoffs will be easy to make......too soon?

[Daniel Labude]

I think we need a huge lineup shakeup to get us going

[L54]

Pitchers continue to pussy foot around hitters when they're up 0-2. Just bury them. Instead, they get themselves into even or plus counts.

[TheHurl]

why not try Drabek out of the pen in the bigs? He's hardly walking anyone (he had a bad 3 game stretch early in the season) and it doesn't look like they are going to give him a look at starter without a huge rash of injuries. Let him throw max effort.

Honestly, Alex was on his last card in May of last year.

 

If this team doesn't qualify, the entire front office will be gutted with the exception of the president, who seems to be able to get away with murder these days.

It's going EXACTLY like the year he got fired.

Suggested this two months ago already.

Shea Hillenbrand

[mitchf]

I have to admit though, I bought into that run.

 

We had Morosi on the fan every other day talking about who the national anthem singer will be for the playoffs, magazines talking about our all-world hitter, Edwin Encarnacion and Jose Bautista developing leadership qualities.

 

All while we were one big hitter (Juan) and one big pitcher (Hutchison) removed from falling apart.

Drabek has said multiple times he has no interest in being a reliever. Obviously it's not up to him, but the idea has been brought up and he quickly shot it down.

Quite honestly, this put a knot in my stomach.

 

Horrible pitcher.

[Orgfiller]

Oh my that was CRUSHED.
