colabello ahead of martin is such a joke

Not really.

[labadee]

colabello ahead of martin is such a joke

 

not at all actually.

[TwistedLogic]

[Trouba95]

Can only afford 23 more losses. Need to go 41-23.

Against a LHP it's fine...Hearn is leading the Canadian Open at the moment.

martin is the better baserunner and situational hitter. colabello is slow on the basepaths and is not much more than a hacker at the plate, and a lucky one at that.

I am not sure why you think it will take 90 wins to make the post season when it only took 88 last year and the way the wild card is going this year it could be 86 or 87. The Jays ended up winning so 40 and 23 to get to 90. Papa Buehrle has a huge game tomorrow and then on to 2 games against the Phillies...today needs to have been the start of a nice winning streak.

Seperation needs to start now, or we're f***ed, sorta. September's schedule is awesome for a fans point of view. You cannot struggle there.

And Junior Champ who now coaches in FLA. He's pretty flipping good, lol.

The junior Canadian Champ I played with used to hook us up with free rounds At Scarboro GCC he was freaking awesome, too bad he lost his path as a youngin, but he does well now living in the Florida Peninsula, lol. He was something to watch, play with. Great golfer, had he stuck with it than, he'd be on the tour. He shot a 10 under 60 with us at Maples of Ballantrae, unbelievable.

 

Jesse Collinson by the way. (I think that's how you spell his last name)

Reyes opens up on Donaldson

As the Blue Jays’ everyday shortstop, Reyes spends a lot of time operating in Donaldson’s orbit, which has been a bit of a feeling-out process as two of the most competitive players on the team vie with each other for every ball hit to the left side. “There’s been a couple times when we’ve argued about whose ball it was—we both want to make the play,” Reyes says. “I think people see it and think we don’t get along. We get each other. We’re just so competitive.”

The guy who's defense is barely passable should probably just let the elite defender take any ball he can get to. Reyes: stay out of JD's way.
