Lawrie, Reyes and Bautista are clearly the three position players we could least afford to lose

 

Bautista - Pillar

 

Lawrie - Framcisco

 

Reyes - Kawasaki

 

All massive downgrades

Especially at the same time. Both injuries today looked bad to me, but we'll have to wait and see.

but we mustn't panic guys

 

all is good, right?

 

I don't panic, it's a sport for f***'s sake. I just laugh. I laugh at the payroll increase for players acquired via trading a chunk of the farm system. Then refusing (or not allowed) to spend any money on free agents when there were glaring holes at SP, 2B, and a righthanded bat to platoon Lind.

 

I do not take the Blue Jays seriously under Rogers, Beeston, or Anthopoulos.

 

I will pay for tickets and go to games when baseball people are in charge. Until then, EMA.

Yeah I don't know why anyone would panic unless this is the best thing in your life. For me it's a source of entertainment. I like to see the Jays win, but if they don't I wouldn't lose a lick of sleep over it.

Make a trade

 

To accomplish what? We now need a 3B, 2B, SP, RP.......just let this team play out the year, keep the prospects and let them develop.

Exactly, I have season tickets for an OHL team because I enjoy it and think it's good bang for my buck. I'll always watch the Jays on TV but it says something when I've spent more money on this forum then I have at Jays ball games in the last 21 years.

Okay?

Both Lawrie and Poulous are at fault for this. It's mind blowing to me that Lawrie was not wearing a hand protector after getting plunked twice already this week.

 

Lol @ blaming Lawrie. How would you know if hand protection makes it harder or uncomfortable for him to hit? It's not like he was batting Jason Kendall-style, give him a break.

Sorry, you're right. Wearing protection on an already tender pair of hands is probably the wrong decision. My bad.

 

Lindy, no need for any protection for that foot when you get back. You're good to go.

says the guy who made fun of the Torres helmet. Why not rip the pitchers for not wearing protective helmets? Getting baseball players to change equipment is really tough to do.

The Jays are paying Lawrie to play for them. He is an asset and you always protect your assets. You make it sound like the likelihood of Lawrie getting plunked on the hands is the same as a pitcher getting drilled in the head with a line drive.

It seems Lawrie doesn't know how to turn to the right to protect his hands and wrists and let the ball hit him on the arm which has muscles to protect the bones. Like Matt Holliday did when Stroman hit him a few weeks ago.

I just googled "Juan Francisco" and look at the google images that pop up.

 

I'm shocked that this has never come up before around here. 4 WAR photographer/artist though

nah...I believe MLB actually should make a lot of this stuff mandatory. I just think that if you asked Lawrie to wear it and he struck out next AB...you'd never see it again anyway.
