    The strike outs are really worrisome. I was expecting a drop off from him towards year 3-5, and was OK with that if he put up great seasons in years 1-2, but a decline in year 2 would be horrendous. Definitely think the Jays should cut bait with him after this season (same with Tulo) just to avoid having to pay them during their major decline years, but finding a team to take them (in Martin's case) or getting equal value (in Tulo's case, never mind the NTC) will be tough. 2015 was memorable and all, and there's still time to turn 2016 around, but I'm looking long haul. The window is closing. Win or lose in 2016, they have to make some decisions on the 30-somethings that will be clogging up $20m AAV into their mid 30's.

    Martin has 27 strike outs already. Damn.

    I said prior to the season I really don't care what the outcome to this season is. If the make the playoffs, great. If they win the World Series, awesome. However, if they fail, I want them to fail to the point where they can peddle off assets at the deadline rather than be stuck somewhere in between. Trading Edwin and Bautista mid-season might make a huge difference in shortening the transition time for the next Jays contender after 2016. The org obviously does not want them back unless it's short term, and they won't want to come back unless it's really long-term, so here we are.

    Just got home to see the lineup. I'm convinced Smoak did something to Gibbons. He can't even get playing time over Matt f***ing Dominquez, and Goins plays over Barney despite being a s***** player in general and even worse against LHP. Seriously. I'm done blaming Gibbons here. Shapiro and Atkins can fire his ass any time they want to. He obviously does not mesh with their organizational philosophy. Cut ties and move the f*** on already. Anyone else would be better.

    Why is Gibbons so in love with s***** players? Carrera, Tepera, Goins, Colabello. You can build an all scrub team just with the guys he likes.

    The crying you heard was probably Gibbons somewhere in the background.

    If only the Jays had someone like Valencia on the team. But him leaving directly lead to the 2nd half surge last year so chemistry > all.

    He might be worth his contract by the end of it but it will be largely due to 2015 if that happens. The signing wasn't bad, it was back loading the contract that hurts. He's going to be near impossible to move with 3/60 left after this season in what will be the twilight of his career. Unless there's an equally questionable contract the Jays could take back.

    His ceiling is Darwin Barney. That's if he reaches every bit of potential he has.
  10. glory
    Or if Storen was the "closer" pitching in 3 run games while Osuna was cleaning up the messes in the 7th and 8th. But hey, savez because of familiarity...and stuff.

    Barney is a better player than Goins. It's actually sad that the Jays will likely favor Goins when Travis gets back. I guess they could always keep both Barney and Goins since Roidabello is no longer wasting a bench spot, but if Goins is still hitting this badly, they could demote him and take advantage of his options (crosses fingers).
  12. glory
    Gibbons really, really hates Justin Smoak. Gibbons also really, really sucks.
  13. glory
    Don't anyone dare call Osuna "Robbie". There's only one Roberto who goes by Robbie in this world, and I'll be damned if anyone insults the good name of Alomar like that.
  14. glory
    Goins' ceiling is Darwin Barney. Why not just play the real thing full time and have Goins off the bench? Hopefully sooner than later (until Travis gets back).
  15. glory
    Zeke trolling all of us.

    I'm more worried about the strike outs with Hutchison. He already has two of them. If those balls were put in play instead, then I'd be a lot more optimistic about the rest of his day. / Pete Walker

    Man, good cuts for Donaldson and Edwin.
  18. glory
    Would Josh Thole even be in baseball if it wasn't for Dickey? Honest question. Even as a minor league catcher he's not an intriguing option. And now if Martin is hurt, he'll be playing a lot more. Time for AJ Jimenez to learn how to catch a KB. No other choice.
  19. glory
    Floyd will be this year's Hendriks. Will put up a 1.5 WAR pitching blowouts all year. Gibby logic.
  20. glory
    Please let this be the beginning of the offense figuring things out.
  21. glory
    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.
  22. 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.
  23. glory
    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.
  24. glory
    Coco Crisp INT walked. Fire Gibbons tonight. Please.
  25. 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.
