    All we need now is Carrera to be busted for PED use because his 2-2 day so far has probably earned him playing time for the rest of the season.
  2. glory
    I tried to warn you guys last year. But I can't blame him anymore. Shapkins had a chance to get rid of him and instead gave him a raise, so here we are.

    Seriously, was Eric Wedge as bad as Gibbons? I didn't pay attention to the Indians or M's when he managed. Hell, use Hale as the manager. He can't possibly be worse.

    Coco Crisp INT walked. Fire Gibbons tonight. Please.
  5. glory
    Tulo should have hit for Goins there. If tonight was a normal day off, one inning of playing defense wasn't going to kill him. Carrera better not bat in the 9th.
  6. glory
    Seriously letting Goins bat here? Is Tulo ok?
  7. glory
    Pinch hit. Please.
  8. glory
    Thole up with the bases loaded and now 2 runners on. The Baseball God's are having fun with the Jays tonight.

    "See what happens when you try to strike people out? More ground balls, Aaron." - Blue Jays pitching philosophy pre-Shapiro.

    Seriously. Goins' ceiling is probably Barney from 2011-14. As of now they are probably comparable depending on how Barney's D holds up at 2B.
  11. glory
    Good news. Gibbons would have played him until July even he was batting .150, so this eliminates the stupid 2 1B problem and gives Smoak everyday AB's, unless Gibby really has it out for him and starts playing Bautista at 1B, or something. Domino effect taking shape nicely. Cola gone. Next will be Carrera.
  12. glory
    Maybe Cola was optioned for Girado to add an extra arm while Chavez is still hurt? My god that lineup is derpy even by Gibby's standards.

    The Pirates let Martin go, traded for Cervelli, and upgraded. Not fair. Yeah, the Martin and Tulo contracts look scary. I still say Dave Stewart can save the Jays from Tulo assuming he would waive his NTC for Arizona, but Martin looks unmovable at $20m per for the three years after this one. AA knew what he was doing by back loading that contract in his walk year.

    Bourn at his absolute worst is better than Carrera so not against this move. Shapiro helping out Boras guys (Bourn, Brown). At least we can realistically look at Boras guys in the draft now.
  15. glory
    He caught the knuckler in spring training a few years ago, if I'm not mistaken. The decision to have Thole on the team instead of him was I'm sure totally an organizational decision (iow, Dickey got his wish), but that's one guy who might be able to catch Dickey and be a serviceable back-up at the same time.
  16. glory
    Far be it for me to defend the Gibbster, but you have to rest Martin some times. The problem is we have this sack of s*** named Thole as the back-up because they would rather cater to their 4th or 5th best SP than put an actual MLB player in the back-up spot. I don't miss Fatty Navarro, but man, they could have signed Kratz again, or a whole host of other defense first catchers that can't hit.
  17. glory
    Gibbons pinch hitting for Cola might be a sign that even he's slowly giving up on Colabello. Maybe. Hopefully.
  18. glory
    Can anyone explain the 1B tandem? They aren't being platooned at all. It seems like they alternate games. What the hell is the point of having two 1B (three if you count Edwin) on the roster when two of them are replacement level and one of them will always take up a bench spot that would be better served for a player that can play multiple positions? If/when Travis gets back, I hope it's Cola that gets demoted. Smoak at least has a little bit of upside if they actually played him consistently, but man this one game for Cola/one game for Smoak thing is not helping either one of them.
  19. glory
    I don't know what would be more gratifying; blowing the Orioles out or winning by 1 run. Those bastards and their flukey record in 1 run games from a few years ago still pisses me off. Taste of their own medicine.
  20. glory
    I wish Shapiro's regime took over when Stroman was in the minors. This pitch to contact stuff seemed to be encouraged the past few years and it's not good.
  21. glory
    Stroman's hatred for strike outs is going to cost him runs over the course of the season.
  22. glory
    He was probably out, but he'll be called safe due to how close it was.
  23. glory
    Derpy Gibbons letting Happ face the lefty masher and then bringing in Cecil afterwards. Why not just start the inning with Cecil, you moron?
  24. glory
    Yeah, if Bautista won't be DH, then put Saunders there and Pompey in left. Kill two birds with one stone. Saunders is a better hitter than Smoakabello, and he can still play the outfield from time to time. Better use of a roster spot as well.
  25. glory
    Martin with 4/75 remaining on his deal for his age 33-36 seasons, and Tulo with 5/100 remaining for his age 31-35 seasons. AA knew what he was doing when he bounced.
