Easy enough to say for you corporate bros, the same skills that help you climb the corporate ladder, help you pick up women. The same skills that help me annoy all of you, annoy women.

 

What about the Yo Bros?

ETA 2022... Seems like a life time away and than you realise its 2018 and that's only 3 and half years away.

[Olerud363]

I'll echo Dinger

 

You need to get laid

 

Let me try to illustrate the problem here...

 

 

Olerud363 goes on a date

 

Her - tell me about yourself

 

Olerud363 - I love baseball, I love it. I love the blue jays.

 

Her - Cool who's your favourite player?

 

Olerud363 - John Olerud. He would of made the hall of fame if it wasn't for Cito Gaston. I hate Cito.

 

Her - I remember Olerud. I was only a little girl but he were a batting helmet on the field didn't he?

 

Olerud363 - Cito ruined his career. I hate Cito.

 

Her - I remember Cito. They were good when Cito was manager.

 

Olerud363 - Cito sucks. He platooned Olerud. He sat him once for Jacob Brumfield against a righty. Can you believe that.

 

Her - (WTF???) Let's talk about something else. What about politics?

 

Olerud363 - Trump won because of all the corruption. Hilary was corrupt. You know that right?? She was friends with the lady from Theranos. What a bad lady. The guys on my message board are just shallow corporate bros. They don't care about any of it. They're the problem not Trump. They don't understand. No one understands. Except me. No one thinks these days. That's the problem.

 

Her - (takes three steps back... texts her friend to come by and pick her up).

Olerud dating status

 

Unknown return date, unknown future career implications, situation worrisome.

Pardinho pitching tonight. Hope he K's the world just like his last start!

Kevin Smith with another dinger in his 1st AB...

This year has been really fun for prospects. Two out of nowhere legit guys in Biggio and Smith, now we just need Alford to have a good end to this season!

[P2F]

Pardinho is out there just doing his thing again tonight.

 

4 IP, 3 H, 2 ER, 1 BB, 6 K

68-44 pitches-strikes, 3-1 GO-FO

Final line:

 

4.1 IP, 5 H, 4 ER, 1 BB, 7 K

 

A junkballer came in, walked a guy, and gave up a GS to inflate Eric's line..

4 IP, 3 H, 2 ER, 1 BB, 6 K

And he's done.

 

4 1/3 IP, 5 H, 4 ER, 1 BB, 7 K

79-53 pitches-strikes, 3-1 GO-FO

 

Grant Townsend took over and subsequently sucked dicks, allowing two runs to score that hit Pardinho's line. Oh well, a 7:1 K/BB ratio is solid af.

[John_Havok]

And he's out.

 

4 1/3 IP, 5 H, 4 ER, 1 BB, 7 K

79-53 pitches-strikes, 3-1 GO-FO

Looks like he's up to the 80 pitch mark. Maybe 90 next time out? He's gone from 65 to 45(assuming there was a weather delay there) to 70 to 80....

[Krylian]

You'd expect someone named Grant to f*** s*** up.

I don't see why not. 85-90 next time out seems pretty reasonable at this rate.

[Spanky__99]

So young and sooooo good. Loving are system.

Fantastic. Let's hope Bo and Biggio get promoted at the same time.

[Slade]

September call up if he rakes.

[Krylian]

No need to rush Bo. He's been good but not to the point where he's lighting the world on fire. Biggio, maybe. He had a slow June but looks to be picking it up again in July.

[Jonn]

September call up if he rakes.

 

God I hope not. The Jays have a golden opportunity to hold him down in Triple-A next year until April 15th to secure that extra year. The injury was a gift in disguise. He didn't have to have service time wasted in a lost year.

I'm buying this milkshake now as well. mmmmmm

[Olerud363]

in 2020?

 

It's not specific, but more positive than not, who knows for sure but atleast he's not running in a bacta tank with Tulo....

 

"Guerrero, who is almost completely recovered from a strained patella tendon, has been rehabbing in Florida and has upped his workload over the past couple of weeks."

[Krylian]

Groshans had been a bum in July. Worse than Alford. Release him.

Thanks to Osuna's suspension, we get another year out of him, too. Looking at it strictly from a baseball standpoint.

[Spanky__99]

Surprise surprise... BA named Vladito mid-season POY!

Meh he's going to be traded in the offseason anyways.

Unless they get a serious haul for him, he'd better f***ing not be.

[glory]

Yeah not a fan of Vlad getting a Sept call up now that the team is way out of it. Putting him on a 40 man for no reason just for 50 at bats or whatever in Sept is stupid. Wait until May or June of next year (depending on whether you want the extra year or the extra year + avoid super 2).

[Angrioter]

The list please

IIRC Sept callups don't impact service time.
