Rain delay robs us of osuna of course

[thatoneguy]

Well saw that coming.

[Effit]

Never in doubt

[Daniel Labude]

Another walkoff homerun from Grilli to the orioles...pathetic

[Candy Maldonado]

good job grilli

[Maahfaace]

Grilli actually looked good out there today, tough loss. Jays need their studs back soon.

[Jonn]

What an absolute meatball.

[wk680]

Time to retire before he further embarrasses himself.

[Omar]

Centre cut up in the zone.....felt the dread before he even delivered the pitch.

[saskjayfan]

I thought the orioles were too classy for the bat flips.

[TwistedLogic]

I wonder how many batters it takes for Grilli to give up a walk off bomb.

 

Answer: 4

[EdwinsParrot]

Lol better it ends now. Hope they practice bunting since they seem to love it so much.

[Ssyen]

40 years old relifer should be in retirement home!

[saskjayfan]

the odds are stacked against the jays tomorrow...they really needed this one.

[Gary]

How many games has Grilli lost for us this year? Seems like a lot. The guy flat out sucks.

[guylaroche5]

Goins bunting into a ******* DP makes me sad. Have they glued Tulo back together yet?

Pretty much all non elite relievers have good and bad years, unfortunately because of his age this might be the end for Grilli.

 

If he was 5 years younger then no doubt someone would pick him up when he's inevitably released, and maybe he then comes back stronger next year.

There was a reason Atlanta got rid of him.

I pin this loss on Gibbons. The Blue Jays only needed a sac fly to score the 4th run from Darwin Barney, who is one of the better hitters on the team. The suicide squeeze is normally used with weak hitting pitchers in the NL, not with reliable hitters like Barney.

Yeah that's my point - he was good for them the year before, then wasn't in 2016. He was pretty good for us once we picked him up, and now isn't having a good year.

 

Just like most relievers he has ups and downs. But because of his age he might not get another chance.

[JaysAllMighty]

Well, I got to get up early tomorrow, g'night all. Jonn if you're staying up light the fireworks later!

 

jinxed us

Absolutly agree, barney makes top contact, so you dont go suicide !!! Baseball 101.... i guess our manager has only gone through baseball for dummies... maybe next year he will graduate to baseball 101

[Jimcanuck]

Have been saying it for years, Gibbons is a bottom end MLB manager

[BlueJays]

Grili long pause before pitching sure is working!

[Governator]

I think they'll wait for Martin to return, give him a month with him and see if there is any progress. Odds are he's done. I mean we can't have someone in a tie ball game with a >5 bb/9 and a 3.2 hr/9 and expect good things.

[wk680]

just waiting for the glue to fully set
