@ShiDavidi: Phil Coke declines optional assignment from #BlueJays and elects free agency.

See ya bro, it's been a slice.

[gbill2004]

He was here for a cup of coffee and a number 2. We hardly knew ya!

[jaysfan2014]

Who gives a damn.. giving up a HR to a lefty yesterday sealed his fate. Now we have a free roster spot for Doubront or Boyd..

[Deadpool]

Cool, I'm sure he'll wind up on a much better team after this...

Is this you saying farewell to the board?

[o2cui2i]

Is this you saying farewell to the board?

 

no, it's him saying dont let the door hit you in the ass as you leave to Coke.

 

 

Coke did us a favor.

He was a Yankee and that says it all... too much f***ing pride to accept a short stint in the minors to help the bullpen for obvious reasons.

Say what?

I kinda hope the Dodgers or Rays pick him up, because the board reactions will be so confused!

We have a lot of lefties though. He'll do well.

Coke helping any bullpen, majors or minors, is a stretch at this point.

He's not as bad as he was with Toronto. That 6.8 BB/9 over 2.2 IP is not representative. It's not that much of a stretch to think he can be moderately effective. His overall stats aren't that far from off from his norm. The real issue is that even if and when he regresses to normal, he won't be anything special. He's kind of a fringy guy to begin but he's a fringy LHP which helps him find work.

[gbill2004]

If no one picks him up, maybe he'll become a coke dealer and become addicted to coke.
