  1. JP hitting fourth......cannot believe how moronic that is.
  2. Bautista looks like one of the best hitters in baseball in May, great eye, hitting for average and power. OBP over .400 in no time. Janssen = been a monster Lind = Has looked great at the plate, needs more playing time. Delabar, cannot agree with him, he has looked shaky every time out. Reyes before injury was looking every bit an allstar SS. No one else really, most everyone else has played below their norm.
  3. Really frustrating this team was not prepared in April and dug itself such a hole because you can tell the potential for a great team is there and starting to show.
  4. This you can feel them creeping back in and dickey one again looks shakey. Sigh. Groundhog day.
  5. Some good looking Knucklers that inning dude just got to throw strikes.
  6. The pitching is so frustrating because you know if they pitch well this team will win a lot of games going forward. Need the pitching to turn around.
  7. Every single dickey start looks the same, throws a tonne of pitches in 1 inning, cannot throw strikes. We are not going anywhere if he doesn't get his s*** turned around.
  8. Dickey looks like garbage...again. Getting tired of this.
  9. Everytime something good happens something like this starts to happen.
  10. Dickey still struggling to throw strikes............. This is getting tiresome.
  11. If this team can get some pitching they can crawl back into this.
  12. Mark Derosa is hitting cleanup, just think about that. Brutal.
  13. Ouch, how can this team even attempt to get back into things with this happening? There has to be something wrong for all these injuries to keep happening.
  14. What an amazing and original thread, no one even thought of this before.......................
  15. The team is built around the all or nothing Hr approach, it's great when it works, sadly it doesn't more often the not.
  16. before 92, olerud used to always try to go opposite, it wasn't until he started pulling the inside pitch and going away when needed was when he became an elite hitter, pulling more does not mean never going opposite, it's about hitting it where it is pitched. Olerud pulled a tonne of balls in 92, he hit .363. I agree that the orgs philosophy is flawed, but stating he was asked to pull more as an excuse why a hitter struggled is BS, sometimes you have to pull, if a hitter is not doing it it is a detriment, just like not going opposite if the pitch warrants. Olerud tried to pull too much after 93... maybe. But it wasn't until he started being selectively aggressive that he became an elite hitter. Him getting too pull happy is a different thing all together.
  17. How so? The jays inability to develop their farm players is a major baseball topic on a jays forum , how would that a bad thread? it would be a better thread then a large portion that clutter the front page now.
  18. Exactly, amazing people thinks a team cannot go on a run, one good run over 15-20 games this team could be right in it. Will it happen? Doubt it, but it can happen, and the other teams I expect will drop some, the yanks are over achieving like the sox were.
  19. In fairness pulling more doesn't mean not ever to go the other way,, pulling more is smart if the pitch warrants it, maybe thats what he meant? Olerud finally became an elite hitter when he started pulling more.
  20. This, dickey needs to finally pitch like an ace, keep gaining momentum.
  21. Babe ruth, mickey mantle, barry bonds, griffey, Arod, Prince Fielder, Miguel cabrera, Pujols all bat 3 or 4 for a reason.
  22. Can you read? I said he would come up with no one on even more, with only 1 batter hitting ahead of him, it would also take away the lead off guys speed or take the bat out of his hand if you wanted to steal. Again, all the best hitters in baseball. Cabrera, Fielder, Bonds, Pujols hit 3-4 for a reason.
  23. Cherry picking your argument, Babe ruth, mickey mantle, barry bonds, griffey, Arod, Prince Fielder, Miguel cabrera, Pujols all bat 3 or 4 for a reason. Power hitters who drive in runs bat 3 or 4.
