GDT (1/3): Tampa Bay Rays @ Toronto Blue Jays - Smyly vs. Stroman - 7:07 PM ET

[wardhenke1]

This is just becoming sad. In nearly two seasons this team is 139-151. Time to call it; they are a complete f***ing failure of a squad and AA/Beeston need to be fired.

Major League 2: Where the Blue Jays get robbed on the last day of the season when a Japanese outfielder stand on top of a wall to rob a home run and the Indians win a division

 

That would happen

[IBTrini]

How many pitches was Stro at?

102...

[John_Havok]

Pooh Drabek sighting. This will be fun to watch

[kgm1]

he hits good enough for a good defensive catcher.... but he's not a good defensive catcher. still dont understand why the team didn't go get Martin when he was available.

 

His track record is such that AA should have saw this . The Rays and dodgers got rid of him because he was Lazy and out of shape

[Inklink]

Pathetic.

[John_Havok]

Time to stick a fork in this one, what's that 7 straight hits now?

Stroman's last 3 starts:

Joe Morgan thinks the Jays should trade for someone more consistent who plays the game the right way

[o2cui2i]

and that pretty much ends this game. sad... was hoping for them to show up tonight.

[John_Havok]

5 and a fielders choice I guess...

Might as well get him in there .

that's assuming that Alex Andhisfloppyass knows anything about baseball. rather large assumption at this point. just sayin.... lol

[ElNik2013]

Yep totally let down by a s***** defense led by our out of shape catcher.

 

I think I was the only one who called this right from the start of the season. Navarro is too lazy and out of shape to be an MLB regular

 

 

Sure, except that no one thought Navarro was a good defensive catcher, but kudos nonetheless.

[John_Havok]

Might as well get him in there .

 

I want being sarcastic either, I'm genuinely interested to see if he's improved at all with his command or just benefitting from AAA hitters being s*****

[GD]

There's a whole world of correct logic and reason in between the craziness of Joe Morgan, and the craziness of many on this board who think Stroman is reliable and should be our acenumberonechief pitcherer.

 

But Joe Morgan's got that special brand of crazy that you can make fun of and not hate yourself for because it's not medical but it is f***ing hilarious.

[John_Havok]

And the ump gives away a base... Just ... Wow

[Inklink]

Almost didn't get that right either.

[GD]

His crazy led him to the Hall of Fame and millions of dollars as a broadcaster.

 

Your crazy has led you to a Blue Jays message board.

 

Maybe you're embracing the wrong kind of crazy?

 

You can build a Captain America'esque shield out of 1,000 dollar bills to guard yourself from the sarcastic barbs of know-it-alls on the interwebz if you have his kind of crazy. You can go into your basement and eat Cheetos purchased by your mom if you have your kind of crazy.

Joke's on you, I don't have a basement.

[GD]

Which makes it even crazier.

 

Crazierier? Careful, we're approaching King-levels of crazy here.

[GD]

tldr

 

K............... ................ meh, troglodyte

We've reached MLP gifs. This forum is done.

[jaysfan2014]

Stroman seems to be running out of gas. Either that or the defense isn't doing him any favours.

[Orgfiller]

Just a quick observation, but Drabek still falls to the first base side of the bag, I don't know if that affects him, but IIRC this was an issue he had when he first got called up.

[Orgfiller]

Lol @ Navarro's "framing"

[Slugger]

His track record is such that AA should have saw this . The Rays and dodgers got rid of him because he was Lazy and out of shape

 

To be fair, he's an upgrade over JPA in every possible way. (Not saying much, I know.) He's actually performed higher than I anticipated. You guys want Victor Martinez circa '07, eh? Daaaaaaaamn, he was hot then.

[bill]

Did you watch the game? The defense was atrocious.

 

He did give up 10 hits and 5 ER not a good outing, that's two in a row. Opposing teams are learning how to hit him

[Inklink]

Reyes is a piece of s*** defensively.

You anticipated him being below replacement-level?

[Slugger]

You anticipated him being below replacement-level?

 

Unfortunately, yes.

[CJ-Freeway]

lol at this game. lol at this team.
