    Giving up an out in the 5th inning against John Danks. Yeah, not agreeing with that.
  2. glory
    I agree that overall he's been fine (his home numbers are great) but he sucks on the road this season, and it's not flukey bad, it's clearly bad. Maybe it's something that normalizes as the year goes on, but it's shown no signs of improvement even against a s***** offense like the White Sox.

    If Hutch's road/home splits were remotely similar, I'd actually agree with the Gibby Lover, but the road #'s are worrying.
  4. glory
    Yes, because his 5.32 FIP on the road is exactly the same as his performance last season. Not a troublesome trend at all. I'd also suggest you look at Hutchison's numbers, especially in the 2nd half of last season, before you foolishly say he's just as good as he was last year.
  5. glory
    Pete Walker.
  6. glory
    He needs to be sent down. Can't pitch on the road whether he's in a hitter's park or pitcher's park, or whether he's facing a good offense or bad one.

    If the game gets called right now, do they play a new game for a double header or continue this one at 3-0? If they play a new game, then f*** it, stall like crazy until the rain gets worse.
  8. glory
    I hope Hutchison is traded. Seriously. FIP my ass. When a guy can't pitch on the f***ing road, regardless of the team he's facing, it's ridiculous.
  9. glory
    Someone hypnotize Hutch and tell him he's at Rogers Centre right now.

    Left tricep tightness for Kazmir, apparently.

    AA apparently not a fan of adding a rental player. Other than Hamels, there isn't an ace available with multiple years of control left. I'm not sure there is a team willing to trade a good controllable starter in this market.
  12. glory
    That's what puzzles me. If Goins is on the team, why the heck is he not a late inning defensive replacement? What's his purpose otherwise?
  13. glory
    After over 20 years, you should know by now that the Jays would be lucky if those games even meant anything.

    Jays are 7-5 against Baltimore, 7-6 against Boston, 4-2 against New York, and 3-7 against Tampa. Other than Tampa, they've held their ground against the others. Unfortunately, the Jays have played .500 against everyone else too.
  15. glory
    Yeah, Dickey would have to be DFA or traded if he's going to be replaced. I have no problem with that. The trade happened, can't change it now. Just accept it as one of the worst trades ever and move on. Norris, even with his control issues, is still better than Dickey right now. Make the change sooner than later.

    AA is not going to trade Edwin.
  17. glory
    How the f*** are the Jays only a game and a half back of the East, and suddenly 2nd place in the division? I haven't been scoreboard checking as much with the Jays losing a bit the past week and a half, but man, Baltimore and Tampa have sucked just as much. Suddenly the Red Sox might look like a threat to win the division, and Fangraph projections like them, too. Going to be an interesting race.

    Pompey should be the left fielder. Time to move on from Colabello. He doesn't provide enough value to keep around in a bench role. Have Pompey start in left and keep Carrera around as the fourth OF. Smoak and Valencia platoon at first.
  19. glory
    Prior to 2014, Doubront was pretty good. Not expecting a miracle with him but he's already better than Dickey by default.
  20. glory
    Need a few more runs. Can't afford to have a close game with MVP Reyes in the field.
  21. glory
    I think you can make an argument that trading Edwin now would be selling high, depending on how you think he will do in 2016 and beyond, but the return would have to be great to make it worthwhile.
  22. glory
    I'm saying all GM's make good moves and bad moves. That doesn't mean one good move makes a GM great. The Donaldson move was amazing, and he's done some other good things in his time here, but ultimately he's proven to not know how to effectively assemble a roster and when Rogers allegedly told him to make a splash 2-3 years ago, he proceeded to cripple the long-term direction of this team in a matter of months. He's not a good GM, and while I was ready to say he's learned from his mistakes in the off-season where he was valuing WAR (Donaldson, Martin, Saunders, etc), turns out he's the same dude when it came time to set the roster.

    Gord Ash was the worst GM I have ever seen in my life but he made some good moves as well. Alex isn't as bad as Ash, but his awful roster management, lack of acknowledgment that managing/coaching matters even a tiny bit, and direction murdering trades two years ago that took a team with a bright future and turned it into this shitshow is enough for me to point to the Donaldson trade as the exception and not the norm.
  24. glory
    Sanchez can get away with a lower K rate. He enduces so many grounders that a K/9 of 5 or 6 won't kill him. It's the walk rate that is the killer, and there is nothing to suggest he has improved on that during his career, except for his last couple of starts before getting hurt. I think AA did him a disservice by promoting him in 2014. They should have taken their time with him and see if refining his secondary stuff or adding another pitch could have helped him.
  25. glory
    Wow is someone actually debating the Donaldson deal? Sheesh. I hate AA but that trade was so good I would have been tempted to extend him on the spot (then I'd come to my senses after the euphoria subsided).
