That dude needs to get ad block. I scrolled down to see Buck, Howath, and Campbell's face. Scared me yo.

Gose thinks he's a team leader or sumthing lol

Good by Gose , Iglesias is s***

[ElNik2013]

Not to pile on Reyes, but Iglesias's effort level on that grounder was very similar to Reyes's on many grounders.

Probably why he got traded...you don't trade guys just b/c of errors. He just seemed like he didn't give a s*** on D and focused only on hitting.

[baloojayz]

Is the perception that this type of sporadic lack of effort from time to time occur more with Latin players?

 

Maybe the perception of some people cuz there is definitely a correlation, but I think the reason behind it lies more with the players connection with his teammates. Saw a lot of frustrating plays from Rasmus as well when he was at the plate. Looked like he just didn't care at times.

What a poorly run org. the Marlins are.. Jose Fernandez is hurt AGAIN:

 

[pickoff22]

kevin kiermaier injured sliding into 2nd, looks like a sure DL stint

[jaysfan2014]

In addition, Thor gets shelled for 4 runs and 6 hits.. in the 1st inning.

He's still in the game.

[jaysfan2014]

Astros lose. Jays only 1 game back of the Astros.

[intentional wok]

Texas just intentionally walked two batters (Cruz and Cano) to load the bases in the bottom of the 10th. All to face Jesus Montero.

 

What.

 

EDIT:

 

And they K Montero looking.

 

Really wanted to see a walk-off passed ball or HBP.

 

EDIT EDIT:

 

And the Rangers start piling on immediately after in the top of the 11th. Up four runs now. Ugh.

More a worry for the Angels than the Jays.. we already have won today.

[jaysfan2014]

Curt Casali got hit with a backswing off of Daniel Murphy. If it's a concussion, we could see JP Arencibia back in the big leagues (puke!)

[jaysfan2014]

While on the topic of the Rangers/Mariners game, here's Rasmussen's line:

 

No batters retired, 6H, 6 ER,

[HERPDERP]

Samardzija getting shelled for 2nd straight outing.

[Frenchsoup]

Samardzija getting shelled for 2nd straight outing.

 

white sox are out of it, think they trade Jeff or just take the pick?

[Atothe]

Samardzija getting shelled for 2nd straight outing.

 

Wants to play so bad for the jays he's destroying his future value by playing like s***. Shark you clever bastard

[BTS]

Samardzija has been pretty bad this year. Didn't see that coming.

[Swervin81]

Bud Norris released.

[Abomination]

Lol, Schoop with an hilariously bad slide at the plate. Turned an easy run into an out.

[Sparky12]

What's better for the jays, if the Baltimore or LA wins?

[TwistedLogic]

What's better for the jays, if the Baltimore or LA wins?

 

Baltimore. The Angels have a much better team, and their odds of making the playoffs are much higher. While anything can happen, the O's look like a sub-500 team going forward.

 

Still laughed at the Schoop play though. What a good challenge by the Angels, and what a terrible job by the O's.

[Abomination]

What's better for the jays, if the Baltimore or LA wins?

 

Probably Baltimore, but it helps us either way.

[Trouba95]

Probably Baltimore, but it helps us either way.

 

I want LAA to win. We need some more distance in the WC.

[jays76]

What's better for the jays, if the Baltimore or LA wins?

 

I want the Astros to lock up that division so I'm hoping the Angels lose every game possible. I'd love for us to take this division from the Yankees and take on the Stros. I'm sure the Angels & Yankees in the WC matchup would be a slugfest with the winner facing the Royals.

 

On a side note Danny Valencia has single handedly beaten Houston the last 2 games for the A's

[BTS]

Anyone else watch a lot of Angels games? Johny Giavotella is a terrible, terrible baseball player. Guy gives away out after out at 2B. And he can't even hit either.
