  1. I already posted my outrage but my god that was egregious. I'd rather have Osuna clean the mess up and Leon close a clean ninth. But "closers".
  2. Yeah saw that coming. Why bring in RP8 in that situation? Jesus christ.
  3. Not sure why not Storen or Osuna. If only this were a more crucial situation than a clean ninth.
  4. Came out of the box slow. Not really sure what though. Honestly looked like he just gave up on the play (nubber) but that doesn't explain why he's not fielding.
  5. Agree. Stop being wimps, everyone.
  6. Matchup tag? Biagini/Floyd and Morales would be my guess.
  7. Way too close. I'd have just eaten the out there. Inconclusive at best.
  8. Agree, and not just because Tulo's shot in the 3rd was just a bit short.
  9. Can someone clarify the batter box rules for me? Jose just walked out of the whole plate area after strike 1 there.
  10. Every year I am jealous of the Rays' rotation and 2016 looks like more of the same.
  11. Everyone takes heat for everything now that Twitter "activism" has become so accessible.
  12. Basically. There was no reason to give him the spot so Ceciliani could "play everyday" or whatever rationale people were giving for keeping the better performer in the MiL.
  13. Game's nine innings long and after 8.2 the Blue Jays were up 4-3, except Bautista's slide f***ed it all up on replay. He kinda is directly the reason for the loss. He literally cheated, voluntarily or not.
  14. What other penalty could you use except for the only thing at stake? Fielder is trying to get the batter-runner, baserunner is trying to protect the batter-runner. Only one punishment, really.
  15. Jose just trying to deflect because he got busted. He's not stupid. He knows this wasn't about his slide.
  16. Actually, now that I think of it, this might have something to do with the rule change. Unless I'm mistaken, this sort of play was not video reviewable until the "Utley rule" came out this offseason. Jose didn't break the Utley rule, but the enforcement of the Utley rule screwed him for his breaking of another rule. I don't even think Kevin Cash thought he'd win his appeal on a hand swipe. Was probably just making a last ditch effort to get something for his side, like when managers huff and puff over every play at the plate no matter how clean. Again I'm not sure -- this could have been reviewable before and we've just never seen it used in this way.
  17. I guess. It definitely wasn't one of those indefensible Coghlan or Utley tackles. He just interfered. Not much of an interference IMO, but rules are rules.
  18. Did Jose go screaming onto the field? This is a guy who pouts visibly over strike 1. He knows he f***ed up and couldn't even muster the horseshit to be fake outraged about it. Agree. Right call. A pisser, but what's fair is fair.
  19. Exactly. The rule changed and everyone was made aware. Chestbeating about pussification is both irrelevant and hypocritical. If Utley slide-tackled Tulo and put him on the shelf you bet this board would complain endlessly about not having rules to protect the infielders. "That's how we always did it" is not even an imitation of an excuse. Not to mention that actual grabbing has never been allowed.
  20. Yeah, because swiping at a guy's foot is noble and sportsmanlike. Jose made the attempt because he didn't think Edwin would be able to beat out the throw. Take any chance at that point that some s*** might stick. Problem is, Edwin actually beat it out and Forsythe flubbed the throw. Totally backfired.
  21. There's no reason Jose should have been anywhere near Forsythe.
  22. If Jose reached out, he's a moron. This is some grade A horseshit, but it looked like he swiped.
  23. I mean if you're blind and deaf I can understand that.
  24. Can't wait to not have to watch games at the Trop. Just the dreariest place to have a baseball game.
