GDT: Mariners @ Blue Jays (Game 1 of 3) May 8th 19:07 EST

[AledmysDiaz]

Everything is bad :-(

[Boxcar]

Well at least my fantasy teams are happy

[BlueJays]

Stroman is still trash

[THANOS]

Stroman is just horrendous this season. No control at all.

[Orgfiller]

Ugh that wasn't even a bad pitch, I'm so frustrated watching this.

[Effit]

Shitshow

[AledmysDiaz]

Going into 2017 our core was Stroman, Sanchez, Osuna, Travis,

 

Look at them now.

[Omar]

Well I've got an episode of Billions to catch up on....

[Terminator]

Ugh that wasn't even a bad pitch, I'm so frustrated watching this.

 

Yeah it didn't seem like it. Low and away. I wonder if he's tipping his pitches.

[Orgfiller]

Are you f***ing kidding me? f*** off with this ********, not even referring to the error.

[Boxcar]

Seems to me that Stroman is, as usual, too predictable. He doesn't vary is location at all. Batters can just sit on the bottom half of the zone all game long.

[Boxcar]

Yeah it didn't seem like it. Low and away. I wonder if he's tipping his pitches.

 

Lol tipping his pitches? They are all literally in the same spot. Don't have to tip your pitches when there's no guesswork involved as to where you're gonna throw.

[Horses Fart]

Well I've got an episode of Billions to catch up on....

 

The first 48 for me. Lol. Beats this s***.

[Terminator]

Lol tipping his pitches? They are all literally in the same spot. Don't have to tip your pitches when there's no guesswork involved as to where you're gonna throw.

 

Yeah that's a good point. Everything is low and away. He could still be tipping them too though.

[onwego]

Terrible strike call on Seager.

 

Would be nice for Buck to admit a Jays pitcher was handed a total horseshit strike call like that one. Every other announcer admits it.

[JFD]

Stroman is too good to mix it up. Changing locations is for mortals.

[Jonn]

Big Maple is getting squeezed.

[Boxcar]

Yeah that's a good point. Everything is low and away. He could still be tipping them too though.

 

Seems to me like he's just trying to get GBs. Doesn't seem interested in missing bats. Lots of contact is gonna lead to a lot of s***** hits.

[Effit]

This is gross

[AledmysDiaz]

Getting no hit would really be the icing on the cake to this miserable Toronto Sports May.

[Jonn]

I didn't even realise we are getting no hit we have had runners on every inning.

[Carlos Danger]

Our planned opening day starter has a 7.68 era...

[Jonn]

They circle jerk Cano as much as they did Jeter. I like Cano but seriously its the 5th inning and they have had 5 or 6 separate discussions about him already.

[Terminator]

Seems to me like he's just trying to get GBs. Doesn't seem interested in missing bats. Lots of contact is gonna lead to a lot of s***** hits.

 

I don't even know how bad he's been this year tbh. His LOB% is over 50 and his HR/FB ratio is over 20. His xFIP is under 4.

[THANOS]

Seems to me like he's just trying to get GBs. Doesn't seem interested in missing bats. Lots of contact is gonna lead to a lot of s***** hits.

 

A truly s***** gameplan, but Stroman has stubbornly stuck to it for years.

[JFD]

Should have traded this Stroman chump when he had value

[bones10]

How many purposeful high fastballs has stroman thrown this year and in years past? feels like next to none, he loves that retarded pitch to contact philosophy.

[Maahfaace]

How many purposeful high fastballs has stroman thrown this year and in years past? feels like next to none, he loves that retarded pitch to contact philosophy.

 

Maybe he's just not good enough to miss bats anymore

[Jonn]

What was the hit probability on that... what a garbage f***ing hit

[Orgfiller]

This game, like many recently, is infuriating. The amount of ******** with BABIP is awful.
