GDT: Padres @ Blue Jays (3/3) - Blue Jays go for the sweep!

[RealAccountant]

Travis might be really good.

[Dr. Dinger]

whoops

 

The result doesn't justify the decision.

[Daniel Labude]

Hahahaha....

 

Hahahahahahahaha........

[Dr. Dinger]

Gibby showing some faith in his players. I think everyone in this board would have pinch hit for him there.

 

Gibby will probably let Barney and Thole bat too. FML.

[Spanky99]

Are you picking for Chappy, meat?

 

I guess so...

[Orgfiller]

I see no alternative but for Barney to hit a dinger.

[HERPDERP]

but Tulo might step on the turf and break his legs by playing an extra 3 innings today..

[Dr. Dinger]

Gibbons doing his best to hand this game to the pads

[Pendleton]

I would hope Martin would have batted for Thole if Barney had reached there. Now you can have him lead off the bottom of the 8th and only have to catch one inning on his "day off".

 

Edit: I'm dumb, it's only the 7th

[intentional wok]

Gibbons doing his best to hand this game to the pads

 

There are obvious optimal strategies here that he is simply not taking. Seriously egregious.

[Spanky99]

Are you picking for Chappy, meat?

 

Select the first guy that's signed, yet hasn't been selected.

I am glad that I am not watching this game and just following the score. Another typical Dickey game; why didn't Gibbons take him out after 5 innings.

 

If the Blue Jays come all the way back then I have it PVR'ed for when I get home.

[Orgfiller]

Nice shutdown inning, keeps the momentum going on our side.

No one cares.

Thole leading off the inning against a lefty, brilliant.

[Dr. Dinger]

Letting Thole lead off should keep that momentum going. Dickey is out of the game, it's inexcusable.

[havok24]

Why the f*** is Thole batting? Get him out of there.

[Orgfiller]

Letting Thole lead off should keep that momentum going. Dickey is out of the game, it's inexcusable.

 

Tulo and Martin would've done an even better job at doing that, but...

[over500]

lol @ thole still in

[Pendleton]

Letting Thole lead off should keep that momentum going. Dickey is out of the game, it's inexcusable.

 

Unless Martin actually needed the day off. He did take a hard fastball in the back last night. Otherwise I agree, no reason Thole should be hitting here.

 

Solid AB by Thole though, did the job.

[Orgfiller]

Lol Brad Hand suxxxxx

[Dr. Dinger]

Tulo and Martin would've done an even better job at doing that, but...

 

But nothing. It's inexcusable.

[Dr. Dinger]

So Thole walks. Pinch runner, right? Nope.

[Orgfiller]

But nothing. It's inexcusable.

 

Of course. Gibbons has completely lost it.

[Effit]

Jose my god

[Spanky99]

Letting Thole lead off should keep that momentum going. Dickey is out of the game, it's inexcusable.

 

I guess they're going full day off, but it's dumn, lol he walks.

[Stangstag]

Bautista sucks

[EdwinsParrot]

Ffs dp

[Orgfiller]

So Thole walks. Pinch runner, right? Nope.

 

At this point I wouldn't even be surprised if Smoak pinch ran.

[RealAccountant]

How obvious is it that Bautista rushed through his rehab to try and get back.
