    This is Grichuk's reminder that he needs to have a blistering September to make up for the last 3 months of garbage. It will be worth it.

    Wonder what the rule would be if the starter for a team in a game that was going to be continued later was traded to that other team, and was called out of the bullpen for his new team when they did the makeup game. Would he be in the boxscore as playing on both teams for the same game?

    Good, because Ray is outpitching Matz by leaps and bounds, Matz is just having one super lucky month with stranding runners and HR suppression - both really far out of line with his career norms. His fielding independent numbers are pretty unimpressive. Ray is an unlucky May from being the clear Cy Young frontrunner in the AL. that's not to say I would be averse to re-signing Matz either, he's a solid #4/5, but he's not close to Ray's talent.
  4. John_Havok
    Before I continue... can I confirm that you are not, in fact, saying that Matz is having a better August than Ray?

    yer a jenius

    Just a note on Robbie Ray - Ray set a new MLB record for the most strikeouts through the first 1,000 innings of a pitcher's career (1,241), overtaking the previous high of 1,222 that belonged to Yu Darvish. This guy is getting more expensive to re-sign by the day.

    80 grade hair. Last 2 starts he's struck out 17 per 9 and averaging 12 K per 9 on the season at AAA. Yeah, i'd say he might be due for a look. Came up through the Rays system and he was the centerpiece of the Cruz trade.
  8. John_Havok
    Yeah, he was definitely projecting a bit there
  9. John_Havok
    He’s such a weird guy to watch, The fastball and curve are both very high spinning offerings that get swings and misses and you can just see that he’s one adjustment away from being f***ing legit. The problem is nobody on earth knows what that adjustment needs to be.

    Hope Vlad goes on a tear to close out the season. Dude can carry a team for weeks with his bat
  11. John_Havok
    Ray is definitely getting paid, and quite honestly I hope the Jays are the ones to do it.
  12. John_Havok
    Vlad has the three hardest balls in the game so far, and of the three, the weakest was a groundout that had the same exit velocity as Mountcastle’s HR. Ray had 20 swinging strikes.
  13. John_Havok
    Nah, they're closed up tight with COVID, just working.
  14. John_Havok
    That was a beautiful thing. Ray made that dude look really bad
  15. John_Havok
    It's all good. Springer will get it back on the 1st pitch if it's in the zone. Almost...
  16. John_Havok
    LOL... here we go again.
  17. John_Havok
    With Dickerson and Dyson starting (both lefties against the RH starter) there's no room for Gurriel in the OF with Springer DHing. Looks like Chuck is putting Dickerson and Gurriel into a LF platoon situation.
  18. John_Havok
    How so? Theyre 1 game better than the jays and have virtually the same scenario, just with 1 less team to catch. yes, I would agree the Mariner's making it is more likely than the Jays making it simply because they're already ahead, but either team making it is unlikely.
  19. John_Havok
    It's possible, it's just not likely. So much would have to go right for the Jays to make the playoffs that it's just not a likely outcome. It's not even about the Jays possibly shooting themselves in the foot in a game, it's the fact that 3 or 4 more teams would all have to go .500 or worse while the Jays win 2 out of every 3 for the rest of the season. Could the Jays win 2 out of 3 the rest of the way? Sure, but will 4 solid teams suddenly all go .500 or worse a the same time? Nope.
  20. John_Havok
    Espinal as the pinch hitter….what in the actual f***
  21. John_Havok
    f*** that. gurriel will walk and Palacios will hit a 2 run Jack. Said nobody….ever.
  22. John_Havok
    Offence, just not recently
  23. John_Havok
    The Tigers are about to….
  24. John_Havok
    Wow, bloop single into a HR….how is this real?
  25. John_Havok
    Im confused by that pitch sequencing. You just saw him have the worst swing imaginable on a fastball up and in that he barely got wood on and was horribly late, and you throw a curveball next when still 1-2. Why not go a bit further up and in and see if he chases again? Seems obvious he was sitting soft.
