Come on Happ... -
Izturis' BABIP is turning?!?
-
That's 6 inches outside...
-
Lind!! HR contest baby!
-
How can the ump not call that after those strike calls last inning
-
And that's not a strike!?
-
Just walk Longoria?
-
Come on Happ...
-
So close!
-
He looked safe to me.
-
Let's go JAYS!

As someone who bought mlb.tv after watching on streams the last few years I'm glad I did. Consistent HD streams that I can watch on the TV/computer wherever is worth it. However I was expecting to see an entire summer of meaningful games, which looks less likely now.
-
Ok that's good.
-
Lansing doesn't play today (Who doesn't play on Tuesday?) and it looks like Norris is starting tomorrow. Osuna last pitched April 30th, so thats weird. Anyone know if there's anything wrong?
-
The only thing I wonder is if we will get any new posters on this one. I guess most of the newer posters were trolls, but there were some good ones.
-
I'm not too concerned with his K:BB rate as it will normalize, although it still won't be good. Realistically we cannot have a lineup of all high OBP guys, so have an all or nothing guy isn't the end of the world.
-
I'd have no problem platooning Thole with JPA, but AA is off in his own world where the Jays are in first. I actually like his confident attitude and I like how he seems to be well-liked in the clubhouse, by the organization and by many fans.
-
Like I said it's not worth arguing over when you clearly have an extreme view that isn't going to change.
-
I'll stand by opinion until I see something to change it and I realize I'm in the minority. At least you don't have the irrational hate for JPA and wish for him to fail like more than half this board.
-
I'm not going to bother arguing with you over a subjective observation. His D has improved from the mess he was last year, and he hasn't been horrendous. You just love to hate him. There's no need for so much hate for one of our own players.
-
I must be watching different games than you because his D this year has looked improved from last year and its definitely not the worst I've ever seen.
-
So you guys think he HR/FB will definitely regress, but his K:BB rate won't? You've over exaggerating how bad his defense is and I wouldn't call it pathetic. Why do you have such a problem with JP when we're sending out players like Boni and Izturis who have less than -.5 WAR?
-
The same reason you know his HR/FB rate will regress. You're blinded by the hate. About the defense, I think he's looked pretty good aside from opening night. Pitching framing I don't know much about.
-
He's also not going to sustain a 21:1 K:BB ratio and he's had a number of bad calls in 3-2 counts. He barely an average player, but you guys act like he's the worst ever. We have plenty of players on our team with -WAR and JP isn't one.
-
This is what I'm talking about. He's not as bad as you guys make it seem. Sure he has an all or nothing approach and his defense is around average...but he's not the worst player every like you make it seem.
