Has Pillar had a day off this year?

[Sammy225]

I think you are just getting a little more lazy on these previews sir.

[HERPDERP]

Graveman has been pretty inconsistent since we last faced him:

Has Pillar had a day off this year?

 

Yes. I recall on that back-to-back day games vs the Nationals he sat the first one. Then he proceeded to hit 2 HRs against Scherzer in the evening game.

[HERPDERP]

Well in that case he still didn't get any rest since it was a double header lol

Ripken played 2,632 consecutive games, I imagine Pillar will survive.

[JFD]

how badly is EE injured? did he go on the DL?

 

edit: NM I see it in the general discussion thread.

[Followthelight]

Worried about a let down against the A's...Hope hutch does not s*** the bed again. No EE again? Ugh the bottom of the order looks like ass.

[Sammy225]

We always win Hutch pitched games..... Zero concerns of f***s given

[Nafro]

I have sat Graveman on the bench of my FB team for this start. Which means he will probably have a good game.

[TwistedLogic]

It's a good thing this team decided to keep Loup over Valencia. That one single pitch he's thrown since July 26 was really crucial to this team's success, especially considering he gave up an RBI single to Hosmer with it.

[HERPDERP]

That's what happens when you leave GM decisions to the manager

[Daniel Labude]

Let's Go Blue Jays!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

 

Hutch better be great today!!!!!!!!!!!!

I like shooting myself in the foot.

Ugh I shake my head everytime I think of the valencia move. So dumb. Great bench bat.

[Trouba95]

Go Jays Go! Hutch needs to be on a short leash. No leaving him innto get the win with the game on the line.

That's a pretty handbag that guy has.

Classic/typical reddit:
