Jonn Old-Timey Member Posted July 30, 2016 Posted July 30, 2016 What a royal f*** up on the thread title. Now everyone thinks we have mutiple todd's.
jays4life19 Old-Timey Member Posted July 31, 2016 Author Posted July 31, 2016 Hi Todd, I sent you a PM.
Olerud363 Old-Timey Member Posted July 31, 2016 Posted July 31, 2016 What a royal f*** up on the thread title. Now everyone thinks we have mutiple todd's. Well Todd era - 2-0 -- happiness and joy, the people are happy, freedom is alive, harmless humor is rapent, intelligent discussion is still present as well. The dictators seemingly shut down the Todd era The rains fall, the people are repressed. One of most frustrating losses of the season, to a divisional rival occurs, coincidence?? I think not. the coorporate bros are back with one sentence thoughts without character. It's like North Korea hear again. Hail mods!
Melvin Verified Member Posted July 31, 2016 Posted July 31, 2016 Todd abandoned us today. We still love you Todd.
Olerud363 Old-Timey Member Posted July 31, 2016 Posted July 31, 2016 Todd abandoned us today. We still love you Todd. OK. I thought he might of been outlawed. If I have the story wrong I say sorry to the mods. Did he have to just do family stuff with his 5 kids??
Olerud363 Old-Timey Member Posted July 31, 2016 Posted July 31, 2016 OK. I thought he might of been outlawed. If I have the story wrong I say sorry to the mods. Did he have to just do family stuff with his 5 kids?? TODD Don't fool around with this s***. We need good karma. This was a devastating loss. 1. Lost extra innings against hated Os 2. Lost Tulo to day to day thumb fracture (day to day is 6-8 weeks in Tulo years). 3. Possibly lost Michael Saunders to rib injury. 4. Bullpen worn out before big Houston series. 5. Rowdy Tellez 0-4 I am sure Vlad Jr. and Urena will probably s*** the bed too... when bad karma hits it tends to hit the entire system top to bottom.

Did he have to just do family stuff with his 5 kids?? He was uncomfortable with the board's obsession with him and backed away. Can't say I blame him.
Melvin Verified Member Posted July 31, 2016 Posted July 31, 2016 Like i said before we needed to win two of three or all three games. Was not able to come on before had to work. And I said we had to stay away from cecil and jesse and what happened they pitched and we lost. But it work still a good weekend. Todd predicted this. Gibby LISTEN TO TODD

Hope that's okay. If you want to change the pick just PM me.

And I said we had to stay away from cecil and jesse and what happened they pitched and we lost. But it work still a good weekend. I like the positivity... wish I had that quality... Yesterday was a tough day for me... everything went wrong in Blue Jay land... I was listening on the radio as Dustin had a miracle homerun and it seemed the entire momentum of the season switched. The only positive was Anthony Alford continued to hit... I know you don't like him... but in my dreams he is a combaintion of Frank Thomas and Bo Jackson... 1. Both played football. 2. Frank Thomas had the eye of an eagle and hit like Ted Williams for a few years. 3. Bo Jackson was thought to be the most athletic player out there with power, and speed, only missing eye at the plate. 4. But as I said Frank Thomas had a great eye. After Mickie Mantle no one could hit that good until Thomas appeared in 1991 5. After 1991 a few guys learned to hit that good (Bonds for example) 6. Anyway if Alford could be Thomas + Jackson it would be awesome 7. Of course it won't happen if he hits .220 with 100 strikeouts at Dunedin To hell with it I should be like you, more positive about the Jays, less positive about Alford.

Maybe, I'm thinking Alford will be no worse than Andre Dawson. Exact same tools.
Olerud363 Old-Timey Member Posted August 1, 2016 Posted August 1, 2016 Williams, Thomas, Jackson? Maybe, I'm thinking Alford will be no worse than Andre Dawson. Exact same tools. He has a really good walk rate considering his lack of experience... Dawson didn't walk... If you translated his minor leage stats you'd get Josh Thole with a lot more strikeouts. So at this point he is on the verge of complete failure... the only hope is that it was the injury(s) that knocked him out, and he will be back next year. Next month could give us a clue.

Sarcasm bro.... maybe a 3% chance Alford becomes a Hawk.

He has improved every month this season. In July he has a 255/366/457 line with a 14%BB and 21%K. It's moving the right direction.
