Abomination

This is actually a good matchup for JPA. He's a low ball hitter, that one was just a little bit too low. And Adam bomb!!!

They may as well stretch him out. He needs the innings, and if he comes up, he'll probably be the long man.

That high after only a few days is incredibly impressive

I wonder what the admins at mlb.com boards are thinking. They probably have double the free server resources they did a few days ago.

Bautista for me. The combination of the Rays pounding him inside along with Fausto's command makes it pure win.

Interesting that Janssen and McGowan are on the program. If Janssen could pick up a few mph he'd go from top-tier to truly elite. I don't know how much it can help McGowan since he doesn't seem to need the extra velocity, but perhaps they think it'll help strengthen the shoulder or something.

It looks like BP tends to allow for non-commercial use of their data as long as you provide credit, so I think he's probably okay on this. I'm not a big fan of embedded excel files on a web page though.

Wow, the Tribe are only averaging 14.8k / game. Compare that to us at just over 30k so far (in spite of our horrible start).

Good job! Last night was 8-7 Jays though, not 7-6. We certainly have guys who have hit Fausto ... er Roberto well, but Happ hasn't enjoyed facing them either. Could be another slug fest.

I'm guessing Tazawa becomes the new closer now, unless he's not effective anymore without the stuff on his arm.

JPA!!! This could be the start of a run for us if we can finish this off.

This is what happens when both of us aren't paying attention lol. Melky was lifted.

Bautista is looking like his back is really hurting him tonight. Probably not a bad idea to lift him.

I thought for sure that was going to be called strike 3. We really need to cash these runs in.

It's nice to see Bautista not go nuts on the ump with some of those bad calls.

Best post of the new message board so far!

Maybe this will finally rid us of Blanco.

You have to do a better job of differentiating between gas and a hunch.

Painted the opposite batters box.

Buehrle had better be taking notice of this strike zone. He's a guy that can exploit the hell out of it.

Looked safe to me too, but since EE should have gotten a walk I guess it evens out.

Interesting that they're pitching Bautista inside this whole at bat.

Is it possible for the admins to check a poll to see who chose what? If so it might be easier than everyone entering their picks in the GDT.

I'll take EE

Instructions for using Stylish to not display posts of ignored users (make sure you install the Stylish addon if you want to do this): There's very minor differences between the two, but nothing significant. For Chrome: Click on the Stylish icon (top right hand corner at least for me), and click "managed installed styles". On the left hand side of the screen, click on "Write New Style" Beside "Applies to", click "select", choose "urls on the domain", type in "www.bluejaysmessageboard.com", and click "add". Under the code section, type in ".postbitignored {display:none !important;}" (without the quotes, make sure you don't miss the "." before postbitignored). On the left hand side, type in a name for the style (I chose "bluejaysmessageboard"), select the option for "Enabled", and click "save". To toggle it on and off, just click on the Stylish button and choose enable/disable. For Firefox, the icon is likely in the bottom left corner: Click on the Stylish icon, and click "Write New Style", and select "For www.bluejaysmessageboard.com". Enter a name for the style (I chose "bluejaysmessageboard"). Between the curly braces following the section that says @-moz-document domain("www.bluejaysmessageboard.com"), add in ".postbitignored {display:none !important;}" (without the quotes, make sure you don't miss the "." before postbitignored). Click "save". To toggle it on and off, just click the Stylish button and click on the style name.
