Navarro would have been on the bench if Gibby hadn't pinch hit him for Smoak. I like Gibby, but yesterday was awful.

Poor Smoak. -
Jose Reyes has a "small crack/fracture" in rib
BTS replied to Laika's topic in Toronto Blue Jays Talk
Santiago, Izturs, and Goins suck. Kawasaki probably sucks. AA has had three years to find a suitable second shortstop to provide value in a utility role behind Reyes and the 2B revolving door has opted not to. That's on him. -
Yeah, I think this is it. I like the LOD, and have no intention of giving my team up or anything, but I have a lot more invested in the DDL, so I care a lot more.

BTS replied to Laika's topic in Toronto Blue Jays Talk
A lot of teams have a utility infielder that's a capable shortstop, and that need is exacerbated when you employ Jose Reyes. Goins is a replacement-level play and not suitable for a major league job in any capacity. You can defend this roster construction all you want, but this type of thing is a big part of what holds this team back. -
I'm happy to report that I still care infinitely more about this league than the LOD. I didn't know if that would be the case, but when I'm browsing games I always look for guys on my DDL team who are playing. DDL rules.

I love Hawk Harrelson.

This roster should have a second viable shortstop. Reyes is not reliable, and we're on season 3 with nothing but crap to back him up. -
Ride it out with Ethier and maybe a platoon guy until Coco Crisp is back. I haven't particularly enjoyed Jennings' contributions since 2013, and I've coveted Cishek for quite some time, so I figured I'd pull the trigger.
-
Cishek for Jennings
-
Good. Estrada or Hendriks?
-
I don't think it's as easy as just buying a starter before 2016. For 2017, Edwin, Bautista, Reyes, Martin, and Donaldson will cost in the vicinity of $100 million. That's five players. There are a lot of starters on the market this offseason, but anything longer than 1 year could mean Edwin or Jose walk pre-2017.

Geltz should never have been in that game with Jepsen and Boxberger available. I get that he wanted to give one of them a day off, but you're on the road in a close game against a top tier offense. Worry about tomorrow tomorrow.
-
That's Melky 3.0 actually.
-
Jays rotation has been awful through two turns. I really think Buehrle walking is going to be a tough pill to swallow in the offseason. He'll be missed next year.
-
OK, mods are gonna use a perma ban HERE, right?
-
I'm calling it: Hurl is gonna IP ban King soon.
-
So has Gregg Zaun, and he's really dumn.
-
So who's replacing king in the LOD?
-
Well, it's obviously not coincidence. Good pitchers are better than bad pitchers lol. Just one of those series where things don't go well. Throw Martin, Bautista, Donaldson, Reyes and EE into a lineup with decent peripheral guys like Pillar, Travis, and Smoak and this lineup is going to look like a murderer's row for stretches this year against even the leagues' best arms. Maybe it's easier for me to see it when I don't really care how they do and am not feeling down after a rough series.
-
Toronto's lineup looks pretty dangerous to me. Completely wore down Tanaka in the opener, which they didn't get enough credit for because of the perceived decline in his stuff. The offense will not be a problem. The pitching staff likely will be.

s*** just got real.

It's king
