2 s***** teams, where 1 s***** team will beat another s***** team. Not exactly riveting TV

I'll gladly watch a Jays victory vs the Orioles any day!

[Dylan]

Pillar still hitting well

[5ToolPhenom]

haha ahh I love John Gibbons.

[bones10]

Haven't watched in a little while, is Travis done?

[vdubmvp]

That nonexistent applause for Jansen just felt awkward.

[Dylan]

Morales crushed that one

[Spanky99]

Kendrys' has had quite the turnaround all things considered.

[gruber92]

Who knows what version of Giles we get tonight.

[Abomination]

Save situation, we'll get good Giles.

[vdubmvp]

He kind of looks like TJ Miller.

[Spanky99]

F U Orioles!

[gruber92]

Cliff Floyd is really hard to listen to.

[Orgfiller]

Cliff Floyd is really hard to listen to.

 

He's way better than Kevin Barker so that's something at least.

[wk680]

Cliff Floyd is really hard to listen to.

 

Yeah but I would take Floyd over Pat Tabler 1000 percent. So nice to have Shulman on the broadcast. Rogers really needs to convince him to go full time in this gig (and pay appropriately).

Gaviglio on the bump...

 

Fun fact: 10 years ago today, the Jays traded PTBNL Diaz for Jose Bautista.

[Dylan]

Some team out there has got to be interested in Granderson..

[gruber92]

How does Granderson not advance on that?

[Dylan]

Morales taking advantage of no shift

[Spanky99]

Missed a Diaz shot...

 

Well, I can go back to it, wall scraper.

[Abomination]

Morales taking advantage of no shift

 

That's what happens when you go against the shift a few times in the previous game. He bought himself a few hits that game, and another one tonight as a result.

It's also Buck Showalter being a dinosaur and refusing to go with the logical move of playing the shift regardless of one outlier game or stretch.

[Spanky99]

Pillar's swinging it.

[Spanky99]

Orioles are awful... lay the smackdown, boys!

[Effit]

Only the Orioles could make our squad look good. Lol

[Omar]

They're so s*** I almost feel bad for Showalter but then I think nah, the prick deserves it.

[gruber92]

Don't know how much more rope Travis will get. It's not like his defense will buy him more time. Massive middle infield log jam on the horizon.
