Bolsinger DFA'd. Can't say I'm unhappy about this.

Yep, Bolsinger DFA'd and Campos recalled.

[BTS]

We can close the book on the Liam Hendriks -> Jesse Chavez -> Mike Bolsinger sequence. Swing and a miss.

Bolsinger seems to have some potential. His last couple of performances weren't terrible.

His stats for 2017 are similar to Francisco Liriano: http://www.fangraphs.com/statss.aspx?playerid=11137&position=P versus http://www.fangraphs.com/statss.aspx?playerid=3201&position=P .

 

One never knows what one will get from Liriano, either a gem, or a game of poor control (mostly the latter). At least with Bolsinger, one can expect consistent mediocrity.

Liriano also throws mid-90's with a wipeout slider. Bolsinger would cream his khaki's if he hit 90

[KingKat]

Bolsinger was DFA'd earlier this year too and cleared to this isn't very surprising.

He's going to be a Seattle Mariner.

A ban isn't good enough here. Someone needs to drive over to his house and take a bat to his computer.

Or perhaps your post should be forwarded on to the RCMP. You are threatening to break into my house and destroy my personal property.

 

I think that you feel that you are being clever, all I see in your posts is a smart-ass who isn't very smart, but certainly is an ass.

Obviously we know that nothing would happen if I did send it to the RCMP, twits like Jonn are a dime a dozen. I just took a screen capture and will save it on my computer.

I actually didn't threaten you at all. I was merely suggesting somebody do it. Clearly a joke but ok. They are going to deport me back to Finland. Please don't.

I stated the obvious, that Liriano is no more dependable than Bolsinger, and all the kids posted their insults and silly gifs. However, what can I expect from kids who like to watch baseball but are too immature to communicate in an adult manner.

Nothing about what you said was obvious. It's wrong. If you want to start an intelligent debate. How about don't start with saying something outrageous and expect not to be criticized.

Link to the people who laughed at you for suggesting that Liriano is more dependable than Bolsinger?

Back your intelligent debate with facts, not what you think. Are you drawing your conclusions from 10 years ago? Do you feel confident that Liriano can give the Blue Jays a good game on most nights. I certainly am not, what I see is a pitcher that can be good for about 4 innings and then is beat by the 5th inning. However, there is a chance he will be wild from the 1st inning on.

 

Here is Liriano's game log from 2017 - http://www.fangraphs.com/statsd.aspx?playerid=3201&position=P - what is it about this game log that indicates consistency? He has gotten past the 6th inning in one out of 7 games this year. Look at how many walks he has given up. He doesn't give up many hits because hitters can't predict where his pitches will be, nor can the Blue Jays catcher.

 

Please respond like an adult, not like some kid with no real facts.

Ok first of all. You're looking at such an extreme small sample of starts. Yes Liriano has not pitched well this year. But he also hasn't been healthy. 2 of those disaster starts came when Martin wasn't behind the plate. And those inflated numbers are from those bad starts. He actually had a string of outings where he pitched well. Atleast as well as what he showed us when we came over from Pirates last year. He was excellent and I see no reason why he can't be good.

 

Comparing him and Bolsinger just doesn't make any sense. Liriano has outstanding stuff that he has a tough time commanding at times. Bolsinger has below average stuff and he didn't throw strikes either.

 

I'm not even fan of Liriano and I don't understand your point. I will take my chances all day with Frankie. Look back at his 2016 Blue Jays numbers as a sample. Not the handful of starts he made this year.

Please forward to the RCMP for this incredibly valid and obviously real threat to your home and personal property. Then let us know how much they fined you for wasting their time.
