D Schneider is alive!

Just need 6 more of those and we'll be good

[gruber9292]

Clement gives off a young Tom Hanks vibe. 

[gruber9292]

The 33 game on base streak Vladdy is on is impressive. 

[neverbeenhere]

He is not worth $500 million, not even close

[gruber9292]

Need a dinger from Springer here to get us right back in it.

It's funny how the whole world knows this aside from the Jays' ownership and management.

I don't think anyone thinks differently.

[hanton]

Schwarber had a 47 game on base streak snapped last month - across 2 seasons.  That was the quietest run ever.  I don't recall at all.

Vlady at 33 is pretty impressive - keep it up

[neverbeenhere]

Berger needs to be back to 3rd

[Omar]

So I just tuned in and....

[hanton]

Vlady rolling over on that slider instead of trying to get behind it and lift it.  Ugly flat swing

wow, Francis got one out, that's wonderful

At this point he should no longer be in the rotation. 

[John_Havok]

Barger with another one! Dude's bat is on fire

[hanton]

Conseco vibes lol

[hanton]

from the opposite side but still...

[John_Havok]

Was a great approach too, 0-2 on pitches up and in, probably figured that's where he was gonna get it in the full count. And he did

[Masterbather]

Well at least Barger gave us a little bit of wood tonight.

That pretty much sums it up, lol

[gruber9292]

Barger having good at bats and now is flashing doing damage to high fastballs. He's making it hard to pitch to him. Nice to see, he seems like a good kid. 

[hanton]

No fight.  Not good

[Masterbather]

I guess there's a difference between the Athletics and the Phillies eh? Lol.

On to the next one. 

Francis needs to add some sleight of hand to go with his smoke and mirrors.

Man, just when I thought Francis was coming around after his starts against SD and Tex, he comes out with this clunker. We want the Francis that came out early in March and April, bullpen was great at least giving up just one run. Davis did his job against the lefty, and Barger continues to scorch the ball. Game was over before it started. Move on, Lets get back at it tomorrow.

He wasn't even really good against San Diego. And Texas can't hit their way out of paper bag.

I don't see how he lasts much longer. They already had to split up his spot and the bullpen day because he IS a bullpen day.

Francis day is actually worse than the bullpen day... I'd trust Lauer and other long relief bullpen guys more than Francis.

Okay, thanks tips.

Gotta do something about Francis, he's an auto-loss against many teams
