bones10 Old-Timey Member Posted August 26, 2016 Posted August 26, 2016 We got spoiled in 2015 with two 11 game winning streaks. Totally dominant. This team has been frustratingly consistent and good. Sometimes I have no idea how we are in 1st place. But its really been the rotation. Yea those winning streaks are f***ing amazing, both times I was devastated when they ended, took me a few days to rebound lol
fatcowxlive Old-Timey Member Posted August 26, 2016 Posted August 26, 2016 They've came back and won plenty of games this year, they've also let too many teams come back and beat em, it'll even out in the end or better, team's too good. Yeah overall we're still a 1st place team, 3rd best record in the AL. No panic but just sad losing to a team 20 games below .500 at home while the 2 teams behind you dropped thier games Tulo!!
gruber92 Old-Timey Member Posted August 26, 2016 Posted August 26, 2016 If we cant get one LHH out (and not a great one at that) in that situation we are going nowhere. I didn't mind that call. Cecil didn't get it done. I didn't agree with Benoit. That was a critical AB in the game and he should have just went to Grilli and I wouldn't have bitched if he brought in Osuna. Little point saving them if Trout gets a hit. Cecil just isn't getting it done and we're way beyond the proven point. I do agree Grilli should have been used vs Trout to try and keep it to two runs vs their s***** pen. Gibby has his guys set,Benoit (7th), Grilli (8th) and Osuna (9th) and he won't waver away from that. Sad.
Jonn Old-Timey Member Posted August 26, 2016 Posted August 26, 2016 It's amazing we are still in first as bad as this team has played recently.
Jonn Old-Timey Member Posted August 26, 2016 Posted August 26, 2016 4 run inning coming up! Keep dreaming this game is over.

glory Old-Timey Member Posted August 26, 2016 Posted August 26, 2016 Benoit still has a 0.00 ERA. He's got that 7th inning on lock.

This team has been frustratingly consistent and good. Sometimes I have no idea how we are in 1st place. But its really been the rotation. Not only 11 straight -- wasn't the second streak something like 15 out of 17? Just a dream month. Best stretch this year has been... 8 of 9 going into the ASB? Luckily, very few losing streaks after that Rays sweep.

gruber92 Old-Timey Member Posted August 26, 2016 Posted August 26, 2016 The good news looking beyond this pos series is that they should have learned their lesson and take it out on the Twins and they have six games remaining vs both the Red Sox and the Orioles. They control their own destiny.

They control their own destiny. Yeah those head to head games will make or break the playoff hopes.
thatoneguy Old-Timey Member Posted August 26, 2016 Posted August 26, 2016 Still can't put together a stretch of 3-4 or so solid offensive games.
gruber92 Old-Timey Member Posted August 26, 2016 Posted August 26, 2016 Now you're going to use Grilli? This is f***ing embarrassing on Gibby's part.

They control their own destiny. Last week of the season features 3 vs. O's and 3 vs. Sox critical

Daniel Labude Jays Centre Contributor Posted August 26, 2016 Posted August 26, 2016 It's not on the manager at all........ lol It actually is, since he is the one telling the big hitters they can keep K'ing at a historic rate, but the other hitters need to stop it and adjust. The whole team needs to change their approach.
THANOS Old-Timey Member Posted August 26, 2016 Posted August 26, 2016 Gibbons wasting Grilli? What else is new..
Effit Old-Timey Member Posted August 26, 2016 Posted August 26, 2016 That was quite a fight they just put up.

thatoneguy Old-Timey Member Posted August 26, 2016 Posted August 26, 2016 Tomorrow night. For the Twins.
fatcowxlive Old-Timey Member Posted August 26, 2016 Posted August 26, 2016 I don't get it why not leave Benoit in?
Effit Old-Timey Member Posted August 26, 2016 Posted August 26, 2016 Does Gibby have brain damage? Holy f***ing hell.
