Predict Gregg Zaun's Drew Hutchison Sunday Roast

[Dr. Dinger]

Ok this contest is simple, predict Gregg Zaun's upcoming Sunday Roast re: Hutchison's demotion. The contestant who scores closest to Zauner's actual stroke-out will receive my Brandon Morrow Bobblehead (shipping not incl).

 

One point each will be awarded to verbatim phrases which are uttered by the neckless wonder.

 

I'll wager we get several of the following:

 

- "Highest win percentage on the team"

- "Embarassment to the organization"

- "Sends a bad message to the clubhouse"

- "Proven winner"

- "Great at home"

[L54]

"If it ain't broke don't fix it"

[Dr. Dinger]

"If it ain't broke don't fix it"

 

Ohhhhhhh yes, of course.

[GD]

"Knows how to pull through and grab the win"

 

"Ignore his ERA, he pitches to the score"

[Dr. Dinger]

And if anybody scores 5 or more, I will send you my Jose Reyes replica jersey (blue, men's M).

[Dr. Dinger]

Can I get a "pitches to the score"?

[burlingtonbandit]

"Way better of a long term starter than Marcus Stroman"

[burlingtonbandit]

"this guy just knows how to win"

[Dr. Dinger]

"Way better of a long term starter than Marcus Stroman"

 

Jesus... surely Zaun couldn't even make that argument.

[L54]

"Way better of a long term starter than Marcus Stroman"

 

Cites Marcus' height as the reason why.

[Dr. Dinger]

"He was their opening day starter!"

 

"Show some respect"

[Laika]

"I know the ERA isn't where they want it to be, but he's 12 and 2"

 

thesis ^

[L54]

Jesus... surely Zaun couldn't even make that argument.

 

 

Pretty sure he said something along the lines of Stroman being a BP guy long term.

[dineke]

"His xFIP shows he's been unlucky"

[Dr. Dinger]

"his xfip shows he's been unlucky"

 

lol!!

[HERPDERP]

"This hurts Drew's Cy Young contention and the Jays are doing this just so they don't have to pay extra bonuses"

[burlingtonbandit]

Jesus... surely Zaun couldn't even make that argument.

 

He did when he compared Osuna to Stroman...

[KingKat]

"This hurts Drew's Cy Young contention and the Jays are doing this just so they don't have to pay extra bonuses"

 

Wow. That would be rich even for Zaun.

[GD]

"As a catcher, let me tell you..."

 

"Damages the morale of the pitching staff"

 

"You think David Price is signing here after this? No way"

[Sammy225]

" The guy shut down high powered Yankees offense, deserves another shot!"

 

FTW

[dineke]

"The guy just inspires the jays offense. They score 10 runs a game when he's on the mound."

[GD]

"You could see the impact David was having on Hutch... this is another example of the team ignoring chemistry and being too cute with roster moves."

 

"Not even just David Price, do you think ANY pitcher is gonna wanna sign here after this?"

[vdubmvp]

It's kind of unsettling that I'm hearing his voice while reading these.

[flafson]

I think Zaun will say it's a good move.

[Gen.Disarray]

"Rather be lucky than good"

[o2cui2i]

WINS are a an important stat too

[Art Vandelay]

"I don't know if I agree with it, but it's part of the game."

I'm pretty sure that suit is illegal in most of the states and should be illegal in Canada.

[Spanky99]

lulzy thread, well played Dinger!

I'd wear that for sure.
