GDT Game 2/3... Jays @ O's

[Spanky99]

Nice play Vlad.

[wk680]

His slider has been a good pitch and can touch 98, problem is the changeup can be kinda iffy

 

At first I thought you meant a 98 mph slider ! But yeah it's touches 98 with the 4sfb with a good slider. Hopefully he pans out.

Yeah. If his command can stay consistent he’ll be a fine addition to the bullpen.

[Spanky99]

The Beeg pooped!

 

Blues win the Cup!

[Daniel Labude]

So we gonna lose this arent we

[Jimcanuck]

Yep

I was actually thinking when I saw your post before the game about the Jays having a big day that they will probably lose a shootout 10-8 or something like that:eek:

[wk680]

Hudson now 13 for 13 in stranding inherited baserunners - silver lining !

[gruber92]

GOLDEN SOMBRERO!!

Dude's happy^^^^ *smh*

[wk680]

Dude's happy^^^^

 

He definitely got screwed on that 3rd strike call, but he should be 'protecting' with 2 strikes, so it is hard to feel sorry for him (even though I kind of do). Hopefully he gets things going for an extended hot streak soon.

Did he post Jansen's platinum yesterday? Nope. Haters and all that BS.

Go to bed.. I'll see you back here at about 4:15am.

I think guys just get too anxious to seize on something that supports their side of an argument. I still think Grichuk can be a meaningful contributor, but he does need to figure out a way to become more consistent at the plate and less lacsidaisical in the field.

what in the f*** is hudson doing, jesus christ

[Carlos Danger]

I blame this all on Biagini.. I just want a scape goat..

I disagree with the latter, I don't get it. Consistency has always been his downfall, he's certainly worth a shot at that contract. The overall body of work is usually good.

Making it interesting, lol.

[Abomination]

I don't think anyone can grip the ball atm.

[gruber92]

Lol.. We're actually losing this game right?

[Carlos Danger]

Maile needs to block it and not back hand swipe at it!

[gruber92]

I don't think anyone can grip the ball atm.

 

The ball isn't wet, if that's what you're referring to.

[BlueRocky]

Of course Mancini is now at the plate

[gruber92]

Whoaaaa.. Hudson fighting back.

[Abomination]

The ball isn't wet, if that's what you're referring to.

 

If it isn't, then it's the only dry thing left in the stadium.

[bones10]

lol, Hudson got out of that s*** with only one pitch working

[Carlos Danger]

Trade Giles, we have two new closers;)

[gruber92]

If it isn't, then it's the only dry thing left in the stadium.

 

The ball isn't touching the ground without being replaced, and it's not raining that hard at all.

[wk680]

Exactly, consistency is his downfall. If he can become less 'streaky' he becomes a more effective player, even if the overall season numbers are about the same. It's something that should come with more experience and maturation. As far as the contract, it is a relative pittance when you consider starting pitchers getting $210M / 7 yr and only play every 5th game (other than playoffs). I have no problem with that investment, considering the potential upside. Frankly, I am really pulling for this guy...
