Hey guys. I saw Martin isn't in the lineup today. I understand that he is on a schedule to keep him healthy throughout the season, which I do not have an issue, but I was wondering what the group thinks.

 

Note: I have been listening to Baseball Central (waiting for the razzing) since At The Letters is only released once a week, there is little Blue Jays news in Chicago, it is has been come a hot topic.

 

My bad: It was a cursory glance, so I must have missed seeing his name there.

Martin is in the lineup today. But I'm fine with giving him a lot of rest. He's old and he's got a lot of mileage on his knees.

What do you think of Kevin Barker.

[JonMc]

Martin must be hurting right now. He hit that one on the nose.

[jaysfan2014]

This is more like the Stro-show today with his decent outing. But the Jays need some runs..

[Terminator]

Stroman is spinning a pretty damn good game today. Let's f*** up this Twins bullpen.

[jaysfan2014]

Uh... why the hell is Zach Duke pitching vs. RHP??

[Terminator]

Diaz isn't looking like the guy I was hoping he would be.

[Dr. Dinger]

That's gonna be a sprained wrist DL stint for Pillar.

[Terminator]

He seems ok to me but I can't tell one way or the other from the screen.

[Terminator]

Yeah looked like his thumb on replay. He waived off Huffman though

I wouldn't mind seeing a more flexible schedule (maybe depending on match up and pitcher, three days here and there, two off from time to time. Other than that, I think it's a good idea given his age.

Perhaps Shapiro placed a call to Houston:?

[Terminator]

Horseshit strike call on Smoak to start off

[Terminator]

Two tough calls on Smoak

[bones10]

come on someone run into one

[Terminator]

Dammit Solarte missed a meatball

[Terminator]

What the hell kind of a slide was that?

[Effit]

This is just the kind of annoying game I needed after the Raptors debacle last night.

[CanuckofChicago]

What do you think of Kevin Barker.

 

I never really listened to him before, so I gave him a chance. He has started to get really annoying with his southern accent saying "Listen..." or "My point is..." and Jeff Blair who I never really have an issue with never pushes back.

 

It would be nice if Davidi or Nicholson-Smith, would actually have a daily show. I don't even mind Wilner.

 

It always seems like we get the less than desirable/mediocre ex-ballplayer to these types of shows.

[jaysfan2014]

At least we got the series win--but this is annoying not being able to hit a rookie like Romero--that and it's a day game after a night game, ahead of a very long day tomorrow with the doubleheader.

[jaysfan2014]

Why is Loup still on the roster? He still sucks.. I'd much rather have Mayza at this point.

[Effit]

Stick a fork in this one.

[Smokinitup420]

Sure glad hale doesn't manage this team a Very often

[Terminator]

The bullpen has been pretty damn good all year but they definitely let this game go. Too bad I was hoping for the sweep.

[AledmysDiaz]

Loup is a bad reliever.

[Effit]

Edwin heating up just in time to crush us. Lol

[jaysfan2014]

Edwin heating up just in time to crush us. Lol

 

3 HRs today.. of course, that was against a garbage Matt Moore and former Jays pitcher Jesse Chavez.

Gibby didn't even want to use that many arms, willing to throw Loup into the fire--but it flopped, forcing them to use Carlos Ramirez..

[Orgfiller]

Sure glad hale doesn't manage this team a Very often

 

It wasn't a bad choice to bring Loup into the game, and once he blew up you might as well go to Ramirez to save the higher leverage arms for tomorrow's double-header.
