    A torn ligament sounds really bad but I guess it's not. Could have only missed 4-5 games but with the 3-man bench they needed the extra roster spot. I can't wait for September with expanded rosters.

    Lind had an incredibly bizarre career in Toronto. He had a great offensive year in 2009, then was below replacement level for three straight seasons, then became good again. Looking back on it I can't believe they gave him that much rope.

    I agree. Upton in a corner OF spot over Saunders or Bautista is worth over a full WAR by itself. Smoak's bat (projected 96 wRC+) over Upton's (83) doesn't make up the difference. Also need to factor in EE's defense vs. Smoak's but my lying eyes can't really tell the difference. EE probably better range but Smoak has better footwork and glovework around the bag. I guess the one argument for Smoak getting PT is that he and Upton's platoon splits might make it more beneficial to have Smoak play against righties and Upton play against lefties.

    They want him to get ABs and he hasn't really had that many this year. He'll get a September callup I'm sure.

    It's really strange. Barry Bonds and Mark McGwire were titans of the sport in their day. Some of the most famous athletes of any sport. Not Michael Jordan level but one notch below. Now they are just hitting coaches and they don't really seem all that revered at all. I went to some Rockies games this weekend when they played the Marlins and other than watching Ichiro get 3000 I was probably most excited to catch a glimpse of Bonds. But no one else cared at all about him.

    I bet he does get in.

    Offense needs to break out of this mini-slump and we need to beat the s*** out of Mike Fiers. I think it will happen. Jays win 7-4.

    Ideally they'd just keep Sanchez in there and then decide on what to do with Dickey and Liriano. But right or wrong they are concerned about Sanchez's health and want to limit his innings. This is a good way to shave 15 to 20 innings off. They could even skip a start once in a while. My guess is that Estrada's back may have played a factor as well. Happ isn't a spring chicken and even Stroman isn't free from innings concerns. I think I'd probably make the same decision.

    6 man rotation for now.

    Salt Lake City or Park City are great places. You'll find Jack Mormons there The rest of Utah I would not consider.

    I grew up in Wyoming. It's alright if you like being left alone. Really desolate and the weather is really bad. Cold and very, very windy. Canadians can probably handle the cold though. Utah does have really hot women. They are all uptight Mormon chicks though.

    Pitcher injuries play a huge factor in MLB never allowing its players to play in the Olympics.
  14. Terminator
    What is that? Is that like the NFL and Hard Knocks? That would be awesome. The Jays might be the best team for something like that too.
  15. Terminator
    Yeah I remember a team doing this before. They put a pitcher on the DL and it was tagged a "phantom injury". I think it was the Braves with Kris Medlen which isn't the best example as he's hurt all the time. What's it called when you stack two starters on top of each other again? Has anyone mentioned starting Dickey for 4 innings and then letting Sanchez go 3? Just throwing it out there.
  16. Terminator
    Oh yeah! Now you're talking.
  17. Terminator
    Yeah with all the free agents we have in the lineup having the rotation locked up is huge.
  18. Terminator
    Who do we have for depth after those five? Bolsinger? Definitely will need to address that. It's been pretty remarkable that we've only used 6 starters this season. Last year it was 12.
  19. Terminator
    That game was huge. Extend Thole while we are at it.
  20. Terminator
    Extend Dickey.
  21. Terminator
    I'm not even sure how Gibbons could rationalize it because yesterday when Donaldson was out and Gibbons wanted to move Bautista down and someone to the leadoff spot he chose Travis, not Pillar, to lead off.
  22. Terminator
    Lol f***. Dickey is going to just have to wear one tonight if he's not on. Probably will go 5 no matter what. I don't know when Bolsinger last pitched but my guess is he's got be ready for multiple innings as well. Barnes setup man and Grilli the closer.
  23. Terminator
    Isn't that something that someone with a mental disorder would say though?
  24. Terminator
    Yeah that wouldn't be a bad idea. You'd think he could come in and throw that slider over and over and get some guys out. If he doesn't find it we may not make the playoffs though! If he struggles this month perhaps we'll see another trade for a SP during the August trade period.
  25. Terminator
    That's great. I bet his parents are really proud of him.
