Chappy

Did they give a time estimate on Lawrie? I just assumed it's a couple months.

Jays still in first place, lol. That's positive I guess. Hopefully JB can come back soon.

To accomplish what? We now need a 3B, 2B, SP, RP.......just let this team play out the year, keep the prospects and let them develop.

Looks like Francisco is our everyday 3B.

Lawrie fractured finger. Bautista has hamstring tightness.

Yeah I don't know why anyone would panic unless this is the best thing in your life. For me it's a source of entertainment. I like to see the Jays win, but if they don't I wouldn't lose a lick of sleep over it.

Most of us would like to see that, but I doubt it happens. Rasmus probably sees a QO.

Lind has a $7.5M option, he is making $7M this year, so it's a $500k increase if the option gets picked up, if not then a $6.5M reduction compared to the 2014 payroll. Sergio Santos is making $3.75M this season and a $750k buyout, so that's a $3M reduction. Happ is making $5.2M with no buyout, so that all comes off the books. Morrow is making $8M this year and has a $1M buyout, so that's a 7M savings. Rasmus is making $7M this year and he is a FA. Melky is making $8M and is also a FA. Janssen is at $4M and a FA. If all contracts come off the books we would see a $40.2M reduction in payroll compared to the 2014 payroll. That's not counting arbitration eligible players and increases through signed contracts. It probably leaves $25M max leftover which isn't a lot, but at the end of the 2015 season, we see even more significant payroll coming off with guys like Buehrle, Izturis, Navarro and Dickey(has an option). That is another $35M in savings compared to the 2015 payroll. That is not counting the options to Bautista and EE which I assume would be picked up unless something drastic happens. There is room for AA to get creative with some deals and probably keep payroll around the $140M mark.

I bet he is out for a few months.

Lol at our entire infield.

Dickey and JPA have similar batting averages.

For getting hit?

It wasn't a full swing. Good call.

Thanks.

f*** you EE.

That's a ******** call. EE f***ed that easy play up.

That is an error.

The knuckle ball looks to have extra knuckles today.

Everything sounds funny with a Mexican accent.

Dirty stinking mod.

So when we face guys with good sinking action pitches we get a low strike zone and when we face guys with great fastballs we see high strike zones. What a perfect world this is.

At least he is already at 23 pitches.

Trade for than extend him, lol.

I don't believe in luck, just good baseball.

There goes the no hitter.
