GDT: Jays @ Rays - 1:07 PM (Mar 20)

[intentional wok]

No thread yet, so why not?

 

 

Most notable is that this is a Norris start against a majority-big leaguers Rays squad. Should be fun.

[intentional wok]

I won't be doing any play-by-play, but:

 

First three batters reach:

 

-Carrera doubles

-Izturis RBI Single

-Barton HBP

 

I forgot to mention this one's also on 590, or at least it is via MLB.com. So good to hear the voice of baseball again.

[HERPDERP]

Carrera with a hit holy s***

[intentional wok]

Forsythe making a mockery of the noble profession of the first base man.

[RealAccountant]

Barton hbp. DAT Dere high obp

[intentional wok]

Hopefully Norris eliminates Estrada from the rotation today. I will barf if he makes starts this season.

 

I'll hold your hair back for you.

 

(You are the lovely lady depicted in your avatar,... right?)

[HERPDERP]

He has nothing to gain in Buffalo anyway. The guy destroyed that league in 22 IP. 38 K's. 15 k/9.

 

Sure he can work on his walks, but he's been a 3 BB/9 guy all thsi time.

[HERPDERP]

I'll hold your hair back for you.

 

(You are the lovely lady depicted in your avatar,... right?)

 

And I will take that barf and put it in you to cook it up.

 

You are that trusty wok in your avatar, right?

[intentional wok]

You are that trusty wok in your avatar, right?

 

What else would I be, constipated Josh Thole?

[Top 10 Personal Catcher]

What else would I be, constipated Josh Thole?

 

What are you implying?

[HERPDERP]

That you're the best catcher in baseball right now?*

*among personal catchers

[gbill2004]

What are you implying?

Josh Thole needs some Metamucil??

[intentional wok]

Izturis suddenly out of the game, replaced by Mitch Nay.

 

Huh. Wonder what that's about.

[HERPDERP]

Izturis left the game.

 

Injury? trade?!

[intentional wok]

The race to the bottom hits a snag; a Barton double followed by a Smoak home run.

[Laika]

Any idea how hard Burch Smith is throwing?

[Inklink]

Are there any stairs in the dugout there?

[Top 10 Personal Catcher]

Did Izturis have another incident with the dugout stairs? Maybe it's time for one of these??

 

[o2cui2i]

it could be as simple as dehydration or heat stroke...

 

 

 

it could be acute gonorrhea too?

 

 

anyone else have a guess

[o2cui2i]

Smoak came to play today

[Angrioter]

Norris, reduces you ERA!!

 

f*** Estrada

[intentional wok]

Souza, diving, can't come up with a catch and hurts wrist badly. Trainers out now. Sounds like he's in considerable pain.

 

EDIT: He's staying in the game. Wow.

[jaysfan2014]

Souza may have just broken his wrist on that base hit by Diaz on the trap..

 

EDIT: Never mind, he's staying in the game.

[HERPDERP]

At first I felt "goood now the Rays are weaker"

 

but then I realized that this means Souza will have to wait longer to reach his potential (I think he can be a good MLB player)

 

and the Rays are probably a 4th/5th place team this year, so I don't like kicking teams when they are down.

lol

[intentional wok]

lol

 

Yeah, seems to be nothing. In my defense, Wilner made it sound like the guy's wrist twisted into a right angle or something.

[HERPDERP]

could still be broken. or just a sprain.

 

I think last year a player got hit in the wrist and stayed in the game, but it turned out to be fractured.

[G-Snarls]

I'm liking what Norris is doing

[Dylan]

Izturis right groin strain.

[G-Snarls]

What? A Blue Jays radio or TV announcer over reacting??? Have never heard of such a thing. LOL
