  1. He was calling the high strike for Dickey, and he just missed two low strike calls there...
  2. Oh good, Dickey not getting the corners. This doesn't bode well...
  3. It's disappointing that he didn't get that, because we're so used to him making those crazy plays this season...
  4. Game 32 - Buchholz (RHP) Travis (2pts) - angrioter, Atothe Donaldson (1pt) - Jonn, canadiansportsjunkie, JG34 Bautista (1pt) - Deadpool, LetTheBallFly, Condor13 Edwin (1pt) - Candy Maldonado Pillar (5pts) - o2, vdub, BBBB Carrera (7pts) - Collabello (3pts) - Dylan Thole (6pts) - Goins (7pts) - Bench (8pts) - frenchsoup jays4life19, GD Looks like there was some missed ones here... Cleaning up...
  5. 100% of my Jays stuff lives with my parents. My place now is all booze and nerd-paraphernalia.
  6. Time to get our Dickey all up in their Buchholz! Yes, I am 12, why do you ask?
  7. One of the things you will (or maybe won't) learn about baseball is that there are numbers everywhere. The easy numbers to pick up on, and the ones that were historically given the most credence, do not tell the whole story. When you look at the last Sanchez start in a vacuum it looks good, 7 innings, 0 runs allowed and a team win! All super great things. But those, in and of themselves, are not repeatable skills that show what he is likely to do going forward. As it stands now, he walks far too many batters (the biggest criticism that even his most ardent supporters will cop to), and he doesn't generate a lot of swinging strikes (a good predictor of future success). If you look at his numbers in the minor leagues, this has been a problem since he was drafted and hasn't shown signs of improvement. I'm not in the "he sucks, trade him for whatever you can get" camp, I am, however, in the "he needs a lot of work, and he may never figure it out" camp. He has two things going for him, he is 22 years old and has time to work on his problems, and he can throw the ball really, really hard. Hopefully he can figure it out (tercet is probably the only one here who is actively wishing that he fails, but I think that's because he's jealous that both he and Sanchez are 7'3" and 118bs and only one of them got a $775,000 signing bonus...)
  8. This is been some very shoddy 40 man roster management.

  10. Martin had better be pinch hitting for Thole any time after the 5th inning...
  11. If they give him an inning today, they can still use him tomorrow without issue... Edit: Derped
  12. Osuna was already warming earlier, and I don't think he's pitched much lately...
  13. Look who it is! http://www.cineol.net/images/noticias/Cameos/Waterboy_3.jpg
  14. I kinda like Carerra as a 4th OF, if we didn't have Pillar (once Bautista comes back that is...)
  15. Edit: wrong thread!
  16. Only plus 1 for 3 games or more...
  17. Come on man, I'm not in the "Sanchez is terrible" camp or anything, but Hutch was hitting his spots, generating swings and misses, painting corners... Sanchez's start was only better if the only 2 things you look at are IPs and runs...
