  1. It's possible the Jays may just go with a short bench and let the pitchers hit rather than subbing players in. For all we know, there may be other guys in the overworked pen who are sore aside from just Janssen.
  2. Well, Law now has the Jays taking JP Crawford... I think there'd be just a little bit of raging going on here if that happens.
  3. I'm worried about that too. 5 should be fairly easy, but the remaining two are going to suck.
  4. What other extensions / etc are you using? I wonder if one of them is messing with it.
  5. He snowconed the ball. He was within about an inch of being normal.
  6. Don't like to see anyone hurt, but this could be a HUGE break for us.
  7. I'm positive I saw him in the pregame lineup. I'd say there's an excellent chance he's coming up based on that.
  8. Delabar's only real issue has been the April walks (he was able to get away with a lot of them), which are the main reason for the inflated xFIP and seem to have been corrected in May (so far). Oliver has out-performed his xFIP for the last 7 or 8 years (many years by a wide margin), so it seems a little unfair to use it to say that he's been bad this year (and a good portion of that was from the first 3 games of the season as well). I'd consider both to have been decent. Agree fully on Rogers and Lincoln. Overall I think the pen has performed well outside of the emergency guys.
  9. Hmmm, I was wrong, McGowan threw 2 innings yesterday not today. I suppose he might be a possibility IF he's eligible. Stilson makes no sense atm, although I'd love to see him. It would be Stroman's day to start tomorrow I believe, so he would be a reasonable fit. We might also get 1 pitcher and 1 hitter, since we will be playing 2 NL games and could use an extra guy on the bench. Thole isn't in the lineup tonight after also missing last night, so perhaps he'd be a possibility (or hurt).
  10. This move only opens up one spot on the 40 man, so at least one of the moves (agreed it has to be pitchers) has to be on the 40 man unless more is to come. That means one of the pitchers would pretty much have to be Storey, Redmond, or Schwimer (McGowan went 2 innings today, so it's unlikely he'd get the call for tomorrow). The second could be anyone, possibly including (and I'm not saying this is a good thing) Derek Lowe off waivers. It could also be Stroman?
  11. I agree we should be running more, but Gose was very clearly uncomfortable getting a lead over there. Running stupid was what we did last year, which is what that would have been there.
  12. Correct, notgraphs produces these articles as jokes (albeit very well done ones). Honestly though, the idea of a base stealing / sliding coach has some appeal.
  13. Jose got jammed a bit on that one too by the looks of it. That's how you respond to the pitcher knocking you off the plate!
  14. Morrow looked like he barely had the energy to lift up his head let alone throw a tantrum. Probably either flu or perhaps an issue with his diabetes.
  15. Melky lining everything right now. Needs to aim them better though.
  16. Morrow needs to stop worrying so much about what pitch he's throwing and more about where he's throwing it. It seems like every time he shakes JPA off something bad happens.
  17. Just put a note at the end of the summary. If people are too lazy to read that far, they don't deserve the highlight links anyhow. Underlining on all of that would just look funny.
  18. I miss the old Jays commercials. Both the talking heads and the previous ones. At least they were kind of amusing. I think my favorites were the bee hive one and the Woodward canoe one.
  19. If his velocity was that low, there's probably something more to it (like an injury).
  20. Yup, Ackley was just optioned down.
