Pretty confident the go ahead 3 from Lee was all Derozan. I'll watch the game ending play again, but it looked like Derozan's man set the screen and was picked up by Ibaka, and Derozan didn't switch onto Melo. Edit. And yes, that's what happened.
-
Derozan didn't switch on the screen.
-
And whose man was wide open for the 3? Derozan's. f***ing clueless on D And again on the final possession, left Melo wide open for the possible game winner because he didn't switch. Missed the shot and bailed him out but man this guy is awful on defense.
-
These end of game possessions are infuriating to watch. Let's have DD, a bad ball handler, run the offense - which amounts to nothing more than an obvious turn around jumper from 15 feet with 3 on the shot clock while 4 other guys stand still and watch. Genius idea Casey. f***ing genius.
-
1st half was an offensive shitshow. Complete garbage. 2nd half they need to get it together or they'll be run out of the building
-
Waaaaaaaaay too many mid range jumpers tonight. It's like the Raps figure you can't score unless you shoot from 15 - 20 feet...
-
That single vertical 1 is slimming. -
I'm still laughing that Siddel called Justin smoak "lanky."
-
As a reliever it's not like he was facing the opposing pitchers slot with an actual pitcher in it. Thornburg has also maintained a low babip for his entire ML career so far, so while a bit of regression from 2016 can be expected, something like .270 would be actually be above his career avg and still be below league average.
-
Drop that batting avg to about .220.... maybe. The holes in his swing are very large
-
Carroll, tucker, Ibaka and Joseph were really on defensive lock down in the second half. When they were all on the floor it was actually nice watching their switches and helps rather than seeing defensive shitshows.

Blue Jays Roster and jersey numbers

Fruitcake. f***ing disgusting.
-
Excellent defense in the 4th quarter. Probably the best effort all season
-
Yeah I don't get it. The entire league is moving towards quick possessions that go to the rim, ball movement and threes and the raps are going the other direction, even though Lowry is the exact type of player that could run that type of offense. Their possessions are like 18 -20 seconds the vast majority of the time with minimal movement and mid range jumpers. That just won't get it done.
-
Doubt he signs here over Cleveland.
-
Lol. Replies on this will be endlessly entertaining. Well played.
-
No kidding. Britton's emergence as arguably the best closer in baseball was obviously Showalter's genius and mastery of all thing baseball.
-
What are you most excited about for the 2017 MLB season?
John_Havok replied to King's topic in Toronto Blue Jays Talk
I'm most looking forward to multiple hundred page GDTs where maybe 2 pages of it is worth reading. -
If 3.5 were an option, that's where I'd be. I will sat though if he can use something other than his sinker for reliable Ks, it's could easily be 5.
-
39 points scored and 58 given up in the first half against the Bulls. This team is so out of it right now

The Blue Jays have released AJ Jimenez
John_Havok replied to TwistedLogic's topic in Toronto Blue Jays Talk
I dunno, I think having hotshot offensive catching prospects isn't really something to be all that thrilled with, unless they can actually provide positive defensive value. Most good offensive catchers transition to other positions pretty early in their careers to save their knees anyways so hoping for the next Pudge to come along just seems to be such a longshot that's us not worth focusing on IMO. Get all the plus defenders, framers and throwers you can find and hope to hell one of them develops to be halfway passable with the bat. -
Kevin Pillar was getting drafted at 22 and playing rookie ball. Nobody had any opinion on him at the time.
-
High floor, low ceiling that's already played in the bigs at 22 is nothing to sneeze at. Good defense, speed tool, CF....... seems to see his results crap out due to a weird swing and not so good plate discipline matched with good contact. Basically... He's Kevin Pillar at 22, when Pillar wasn't Pillar until he was 25. He still has a chance to workout his swing issues to get better

The Blue Jays have released AJ Jimenez
John_Havok replied to TwistedLogic's topic in Toronto Blue Jays Talk
Once he's designated for assignment, he has to get released if he's not able to be traded in the DFA window. That's how it works. The only way the Jays would have been able to bring him back is by him agreeing to re-sign to a minor league deal with invite to ST, which he's unlikely to do without at least checking around the league for other options first
