Cecil back, Gose to AAA

[jaysfan2014]

Back to a 7 man bullpen. Cecil is activated off the 15 day DL.

 

To make room, Anthony Gose was optioned to AAA Buffalo. Considering his struggles, Rasmus expected to return tomorrow and lefties on the mound, he was better off playing every day in Buffalo. Expect Glenn to be optioned shortly as well for Kratz when eligible.

[G-Snarls]

Gose gone????????

[G-Snarls]

Let the despairing continue

 

So OF today is

 

LF - Cabrera

CF - Mastroianni

RF - Glenn

 

Brutal brutal brutal

[jaysfan2014]

Gose gone????????

 

Three lefties on the mound and not enough production from him, and having too many OFs pretty much sealed his fate.

Other way around :

 

LF Cabrera

CF Mastro

RF Glenn

[G-Snarls]

I only want to watch today when Stroman is pitching and Bautista is batting

 

It's a two-man show

Bradd Glenn may be right-handed but he doesn't really bring much to the table. I'd rather the guy who can play CF and provide some speed even if he is left-handed.

Time to create "Can Glenn stick?" thread

Yeah but now you cant bring him up for another 10 days. So after these 3 days we are stuck with Glen who is useless. Might as well have Gose in there becasue he at least provides value on defence while Glen doesn't.

At this rate he just might due to attrition

Jays FO is very smart. Glenn will receive his opportunity and when he's 0-40 then, they'll send him down.

[Convo]

Gose SLG .284..... didn't even know it was possible to SLG that low... don't love or hate this move, is what it is... but having Cecil back is a major plus

Should of sent down a reliver because there is no need with how well the SP has been. otherwise send down Glen.

[Governator]

Looking forward to seeing catchable balls get turned in to triples today.

Yes. Glenn is a great CF defender and destroy lefties

[Frenchsoup]

The jays probably wanted to keep Kratz at AAA to help the Sanchize development. That is how there miniscule brains work.

Great idea. I thought the main goal was to win games at MLB level.

No

 

AA promised Buffalo a winning team

[McD]

Horrible move. Why demote the only one of the three who can help this team win in anyway.

 

Kratz up has to happen....please?

[G-Snarls]

On a related note, is there a bigger waste of a roster spot than Josh Thole??

[Angrioter]

No

 

AA promised Buffalo a winning team

 

 

Then, send Stroman back to AAA and call up Hendricks

OK, it wasn't THAT much of a promise

[Angrioter]

Thole is the only catcher at MLB who is able to catch the best pitcher in the game (RA Dickey)

Wouldn't it be ironic if Dikey has more success throwing to Kratz? This obsession with maintaining this battery intact despite underwhelming results is really strange and innefective roster management. I wonder how much of Dickey's value is lost by carrying Thole? It's probably more than enough to cancel out the Dickey effect.

That's the funny thing. This personal catcher business would be so much easier to justify if Dickey were pitching well but there's really nothing about Dickey's performance that justifies this indulgence.

[eastcoastjaysfan]

Gose has had countless opportunities to perform and he's failed in epic fashion every single time.

 

Guy can't hit, can't bunt, can't get on base enough to use his speed.

 

He's an all glove fringe 4th OFer. See ya later bud.

Gose is a frustrating player to be sure. His game is a mess but at least he has skills. What does Glenn have?

He is going to be our 2015 starting CF.
