GDT(3/3): Your Toronto Blue Jays @ New York Yankees - Norris vs Sabathia - 7:05 PM ET

[ScientificReason]

lmao how to kill Cecil's confidence on the year. Call him the closer and then never give him the chance to close and replace him with a 20yr old A ball kid. Brilliant.

 

?? If Cecil is that weak he should not be closing anyway, please.

[HERPDERP]

If Gibbons is this quick to give the hook to Cecil, then we should consider putting Travis in for Bautista.

[Spanky99]

Or, Cecil's hurt.

[King]

Cecil's velocity was down to 87-88 mph last night. Hope is that velocity will come back when he gets some additional work. #BlueJays

Yes because those 2 situations are the same..herpderp indeed.

[HERPDERP]

Question, can Cecil be sent down without having to pass him through waivers? If he's this behind, there is no reason why Delabar should've been taken over him.

[King]

Castro the closer per Barry Davis

 

K..................

 

Scott MacArthur ‏@TSNScottyMac 40s40 seconds ago

No defined closer for time being. Castro still could get matchup work in 7th, 8th in days ahead. #BlueJays #MLB #Yankees

 

 

Richard Griffin ‏@RGriffinStar 50s50 seconds ago

Gibbons suggested that for the moment Castro will be closing games for the #bluejays with Cecil in his old role.

[fatcowxlive]

WOW that was quick. I didn't like having Cecil at the closer position personally but that was quick as hell lol Gibby's not f***ing around

[TDotttt2005]

Going 'no-closer' / committee after 2 games. If only AA knew we needed bullpen help in the offseason. These holes just sprung up on him all of a sudden.

[HERPDERP]

Yes because those 2 situations are the same..herpderp indeed.

 

You're a scientist, I can understand when you miss sarcasm

John Lott ‏@LottOnBaseball 47s47 seconds ago

Gibbons came as close to saying Castro will be the closer without actually saying it. But Cecil will not be the closer for the time being.

[King]

Maybe the Jays are concerned about that very large velocity drop.

[ScientificReason]

I recognize stupidity, you send off alarm bells immediately.

 

MAn this bullpen leaves no confidence, AA should have did more to improve the bullpen, going to cost us games this year.

What does MJ stand for?

Your stupidity detector seems to be broke. I can sell you a sarcasm detector, though.

[RealAccountant]

Just throw Redmond as the closer, relievers are overrated anyways. Yankees are so stupid giving all that money to Andrew Miller. No Thanks, Hoffman should be ready by May anyways

[Angrioter]

Cecil, you just last one inning in your new spot lol

[HERPDERP]

Cecil, you just last one inning in your new spot lol

 

3 weeks from now, after Castro racks up 7 saves and a ghastly 25/3 K/BB ratio, Gibbons will say, "I tell you h'what, there is no way we can pull the kid from the closer role"

lol...MJ?

[Governator]

?? If Cecil is that weak he should not be closing anyway, please.

 

He's been our most reliable arm for the past few years, closers aren't just flamethrowers anymore.

 

I prefer closer by committee tbh. I just think it's ridiculous to take away his closer spot that they gave him months ago just because he was forced to come in with the bases loaded none out in the 8th with like 5 warm up pitches... and I'll say this again, Castro would have given up a game tying 2-run bomb in his first pitch of the 7th to Arod if it weren't for the inbound hurricane wind. If that happened this conversation doesn't happen.

[Spanky99]

THanks MJ.

 

lol

[Spanky99]

lulz

lol

... And we lost a good asset. Maybe #3 starter

[BigBounceyBlueBalls]

WOW that was quick. I didn't like having Cecil at the closer position personally but that was quick as hell lol Gibby's not f***ing around

 

Also removing Cecil from the closer role means less Loup for you too! Lol

[Daniel Labude]

lol

... And we lost an good asset. Maybe #3 starter

 

Next year Sanchez and Castro will compete for a Starting spot...with the other being the closer.

[o2cui2i]

I'm sorry.... but is Pillar's punishment for taking a play off last night is getting the start in CF and Pompey is on the bench tonight?

 

Pillar f***s up so Pompey gets to ride the pine???

I was definitely premature, Castro closer for tonight and committee for the foreseeable future
