GDT(3/4): LA Angels @ Your Toronto Blue Jays - Weaver vs. Hutchison - 7:07 PM ET

[burlingtonbandit]

Pat Tabler has no idea what he is talking about lol

[Praxis]

How exactly is Carrera a better option than Pompey?

 

He's uglier and thus fits in better with Colabello, Sanchez etc.?

[Inklink]

colla==== is 2015 Juan Fransciso. Regression overload

 

Hopefully Wonderboy deals him when someone comes calling, unlike what he did with Francisco.

[jays4life19]

Da Fuq? Since when do they talk about FIP? lol

[Inklink]

LOL Pat. I don't really know FIP myself, but even I can tell you're bs'ing.

[Orgfiller]

cuz then he gets hurt and the lineup becomes even worse.. This lineup right now without Martin is among the bottom 5 in baseball.

I have a hard time believing a lineup headlining Donaldson, Bautista and Encarnacion can be bottom 5 in baseball.

[Atothe]

Tabler struggling, bless him

[King]

TIL Fip is a new metric a lot of people are putting stock into

[Spanky99]

Dat's Filthy!

[Orgfiller]

Saying fip and not F.I.P. (ala E.R.A. vs "era") makes it sound like a joke of a stat.

[BigCecil]

How exactly is Carrera a better option than Pompey?

 

We handled Pompey in a bizarre fashion handing him the CF job and a 20 game probation period.

 

I liked what I saw.

Good thing we have progressive commentators such as Buck and Pat to explain it to us.

[Top 10 Personal Catcher]

Listening to Pat talk about advanced stats gives me the same feeling that I had when I was a teenager and my dad tried to talk about music with me and my friends.

[Atothe]

Beauty

lool

[o2cui2i]

3 innings 32 pitches for Hutch.

[Spanky99]

These guys are dealing, game will be over by 9.

[BigCecil]

yet people complain when he gets a day off... Has caught the 3rd most innings among Catchers this season.

 

Id love to give Martin more days off but with our 5-9 a AAA line up and our ERA at the top of the league (the wrong top) we don't have a ton of luxury to sit him right now unfortunately. We are in danger of being irrelevant early.

[Orgfiller]

On a more serious note, Hutch's FIP/xFIP down to 3.89 and 3.81, respectively, on the season.

[Atothe]

Leaf fans excited they got Babcock but forget to remember they don't have the talent smh

[jaysfan2014]

There we go! Valencia with an infield single.

[burlingtonbandit]

Lol at the turf keeping that ball in the infield.

[Atothe]

Danny "soft tossing righty killer" Valencia

[Top 10 Personal Catcher]

Righty Masher!

[labadee]

nice!

[Spanky99]

Dat hustle...DV

[o2cui2i]

DV with another hit off RHP

[Spanky99]

Leaf fans excited they got Babcock but forget to remember they don't have the talent smh

 

Still a great sign?

[Orgfiller]

Yeah, please don't get picked off Valencia.
