Tulo cant believe Barry asking the cliche question taking Tulos answer... Yes barry, they are as fun to make as they are to watch stfu

Zaun is seriously complaining about the same f***ing thing that he did a few innings ago.

 

With a monster like Sano on deck too. He's lost it at this point.

Barry trying to make this win as unenjoyable as possible for Tulo. Embarrassing.

 

Filthy couple of pitches in that AB, good f***ing job Biagini.

 

That slider is looks pretty devastating. Very sharp, rather late break.

It's been a long week for Barry. Give the guy a break. He's doing the best he can.

Biagini makes me horny. Anyone else get the same feeling?

 

Dude, you keep getting banned over the same thing. Just stop, it's creepy as f*** and no one finds it entertaining.

Lol if you think crappy interviews have been going on with Barry for a week.

You know, if you're looking to get banned you could always just stop posting yourself.

He (?) has some weird fetish with Barry Davis, best to ignore it.

I'm just celebrating the win and Biagini's stellar performance.

I think he's right, for once. Mauer makes considerably more contact than Sano, its really not close. With 2 outs and a fast runner on second, any single scores the runner as he's running on contact. A savvy pitcher like Estrada can make Sano swing and miss (which you saw tonight) as well as force him to pop/fly out. A hitter like Mauer on the other hand can slap singles around even on good pitches because his approach is always to stay quiet and balanced at the plate. Mauer looked MUCH more dangerous against Estrada tonight than Sano did.

I see where you're coming from, but the potential risk in giving Mauer a free base to pitch to Sano is huge. Sano may have looked bad today, but he could have just as easily had a mammoth homerun and no one would be surprised. We both know who out of those two guys we would prefer making good contact, and that's not Mauer.

A Mauer single only ties the game. There is a very very low chance that Mauer ends the game in his AB.

 

You put Mauer on and Sano gets a double or homer and the game is over. Or you put Mauer on and then Sano walks well then a passed ball or another walk loses it. Just too many bad scenarios could play out.

 

I'm sure someone could run the numbers on which is generally the better play but I agree with you in that pitching to Mauer is the better play.

I'd just like to point out that Jimmy Paredes has gotten a hit in ever game he's played as a blue Jay. On an absolute tear.

 

Opposite field extra base hits are clearly a big part of Jimmy Paredes' game.

 

I'm just glad no pitchers have been seriously hurt yet.

Also made like 4 terrible plays on defense that have hurt cost the Blue Jays 3 runs.

Jimmy Paredes' doesn't get paid to field. He gets paid for the extra base hits.
