GAME THREAD (Yankees vs Blue Jays, line up)

[KinofChaos]

Orioles looking scary. Jays need to wake the f*** up.

[CJ-Freeway]

Horrible pitch but we'll take the out lol

[intentional wok]

Baltimore is on the verge of being 7 and f***ing 0

 

Forgot August 2015 already?

[Belliss101]

On a bright side... Pompey went 3-4 tonight

Jays problem has been expecting Tulo (may happen eventually), Colabello, Martin, Pillar, and Saunders to hit well again this year

That part of the lineup is where we are missing runs compared to last year.

 

Colabello is garbage, but the others should start hitting eventually (even Pillar).

 

The issue, and it's a real issue that people want to close their eyes to, is age related decline for Tulo and Martin. It may not come this season, but they have a ton of years and money left on their deals and they are heading into peak decline years for players who play their positions. I'm OK with a 3 WAR projection for both, but a decline for both wouldn't shock me either.

It's ridiculous now, the strikeouts as a team are out of control and almost everyone looks lost.

 

Call it a season.

No I didn't because I went to over 35 games last year with the playoffs, but it just is slightly alarming the amount the Jays are striking out to start the season (early I know) but these 1 run games are crazy and the bullpen is bad.

What exactly are you suggesting they do?

[canadiansportsjunkie]

Saunders home run coming up

[THANOS]

It's April 12th.

 

Small sample or not, it's been consistently awful through all 8 games with completely unusual team K rates. I'm not sure why it's happening but it's been consistent.

Saunders home run coming up

 

lol

[burlingtonbandit]

Saunders home run coming up

 

That'd be quite the achievement vs Miller.

[Spanky99]

You should go post over their again.

[KinofChaos]

Saunders home run coming up

Against miller? Doubtful.

[Belliss101]

Saunders home run coming up

 

Miller is a lefty

[West Texas Forever]

If Martin goes deep here I will buy someone a beer tonight if they meet up near Bathurst and King.

[Angrioter]

Smoak dinger here

[el duque]

We are seeing the Kansas model now in Yankees version and our bp is far from that

[West Texas Forever]

Miller looks like a f***ing praying mantis.

[Jonn]

Ohhhhh man, singing a new song 5 minutes into the season, lol.

There you go.

 

s***** results are s*****, but...

 

Wtf. Saunders vs. Miller?

[Jonn]

Sounds like a good way too die or be raped.

[West Texas Forever]

You're creepy bro.

 

Offering a beer that will never be bought since Martin wont hit a homerun is creepy? Clown.

[THANOS]

FB right down the middle and Saunders watches it..

[KinofChaos]

Saunders got bent.

No one is meeting you anywhere. Stop.

[nmrch]

On a bright side... Pompey went 3-4 tonight

 

call him up, let him play the outfield while Bautista/Saunders DH with EE at 1B. I'm not convinced he's a worse hitters than Smoakebello and we'll add some defence.
