GDT! Opening Day! Let's Goooo Bluejays!

[flafson]

It means to put an end to it.

 

In Hebrew there is the word Kibush which pretty much means to conquer, sounds like that could have been the origin.

[EdwinsParrot]

aaaand we're back!

 

feels like just yesterday i was watching game 5 of the alds, glad the offseason felt quick for me

[Rusty_Savage]

What's a kibosh?

 

kibosh

[TheHurl]

Oh is supposed to be a guy that walks no one. He walks his first batter

[fatcowxlive]

Half an hour now!! Can't wait! Looks like I'm catching the first half hour from the barber shop though :/

[X_X]

Pill leading off... gross!

[Angrioter]

Pill leading off... gross!

 

Colabello against a tough righty

[Stangstag]

The Trop is f***ing empty. Disgraceful

[Rusty_Savage]

Did the public address announcer just say our bullpen catcher is Alex Andropolous?

[Jonn]

Yes they are wearing the road grays!

[bones10]

I f***ing hate the Rays.

[HERPDERP]

They are introducing the entire DL roster too?

[bones10]

Did the public address announcer just say our bullpen catcher is Alex Andropolous?

 

and why did they list schultz and Loup arent they on the DL? lol

[Rusty_Savage]

Same as Travis

[Jonn]

Ofcourse nobody in St. Pete showed up lol. Please move this team MLB.

[gruber92]

Yep

[nextyear]

I am excited about following the Blue Jays right from the very first game this year. Last year was frustrating for the first few 4 months with Reyes as SS and Colabello/Carrera in LF; no lead seemed to be safe.

 

The Blue Jays start the season with a solid infield and outfield defense and plenty of offense.

[Brownie19]

Just me or is Rick Sutcliffe an idiot and Doug Glanville is always the voice of reason?

[Rusty_Savage]

Yep

 

That's awesome. Probably AA in a fake moustache and glasses

[glory]

Good lord the Trop is a s*** hole for baseball. Relocate it anywhere else that would appreciate having a team.

[gruber92]

That female coordinator in the salmon colored dress is hot as f***.

[Stangstag]

Ofcourse nobody in St. Pete showed up lol. Please move this team MLB.

 

Its actually f***ing gross. Probably less combined attendance for this 4 game series than 1 of the games in Montreal

[Jimcanuck]

So is someone making a proper GDT or what?

[bones10]

That female coordinator in the salmon colored dress is hot as f***.

 

I thought it was Hazel Mae at first, dat ass tho

[glory]

You're saying they should have dumped Colabello after a .887 OPS and 142 wRC+? His wRC+ was top 15 in baseball......

 

I understand his babip is hilarious and will come down. How much is the question though. I think he can still sniff an .800 OPS. Please don't bring up the spring arguments, we all know if Gibby made decisions based on 50 ABs in spring you guys would be all over him.

 

Yes, I think Cola should have been traded. Or Smoak. Whoever stayed should have been the everyday 1B. I'd prefer keeping Smoak between the two of them, but having both on the roster along with Edwin makes no sense. Destroys the bench flexibility and Gibbons will end up playing the guy who is the most likely to regress because "familiarity" and "playoffs". Maybe the difference between Cola and Smoak won't be that big by the end of the season, but I just have a bad feeling that when Cola falls off a cliff it's going to be ugly. Tewks isn't god.

You guys may want to take another look

[jaysfan2014]

Holy, is the Trop a dump! And now that the Jays have a dirt infield, it looks even worse..

[gruber92]

f*** she's hot. She has that Kate Middleton thing going on, but better.

[TheHurl]

The Trop is f***ing empty. Disgraceful

 

Would you go to Aurora for games? that is really close to the equivalent.
