  1. eaaaassssyyyy power.
  2. Dumn question time - is that $57/month?
  3. Well that's ok but it's just things buck says wrong...I'm talking really stupid things like watch how the runner stands tall and makes Travis throw around him...forcing a wide throw.....they ship replay, runner slides, never gets to Travis and ya....no reason for a wide throw besides he rushed it.....bucks a tool
  4. You mean when Davis has been hitting lefties well this year and the you have lefty mashers Pearce and Hardy due up? Facing Davis is the only defendable move
  5. We honestly need a "buck & tabby" quote thread...tabby breakdown of the takeout slide to break up the DP that Travis threw wide was pure gold. I'd start it but I'm new and you guys seem picky about your threads
  6. We honestly kept Jeff f***ing Francis and DFA'd West? What a cocksucking nightmare. Fire AA....I'm done following this nonsense until Jeff Francis is released.
  7. Worst discussion ever.
  8. They also have the technology to make sure offside calls aren't missed in hockey - and to review penalties.....but they don't because this crap all takes too long.
  9. What's the status on the accuracy of the "robo ump" Are they able to accurately adjust the zone for each hitter? Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't the zone established in the players position during a swing? ie, you can't just crouch right down and put your chest on your knees... I guess they could send all players through a simulator to develop their particular strike zone or something.
  10. I also had a Travis Snider signed ball - but I gave it to my son to play with in the front yard.
  11. Jason Frasor autographed baseball - with certificate of authenticity....BAM
  12. Wait - are we talking about umpires or teachers now? FWIW - I'm against robot umps. I still enjoy the element of human error, I'd like to see them held accountable when they are awful at their job, but I've come to realise that won't happen when unions are involved.
  13. I think the board should give some kudos to Sanchez for battling out of the 4th inning last night. So much of this game is mental and to battle out of that and then go on to pitch significantly better in the 5th, 6th and 7th was fun to watch. I have no idea if this kid will ever succeed, but here's hoping he's developing some confidence, the ability to adjust and to simply overcome adversity. As Jays fans, we need him to.
  14. James Harden looks retarded.
  15. Hey Captain Obvious - you've been working hard. Take a break.
  16. Most teams don't have 2 WAR guys sitting around waiting for injuries. That simply isn't true (outside of Washington). Typically they have a vet who's been good in the past who cant quite crack the rotation, or they have a young prospect who's almost ready to make the jump to the majors. The Jays have Estrada's put up 1.7 WAR in 2013 and 3.2 in 2012 and they have Norris and Sanchez who fit the bill as the top prospects who are almost ready (theoretically). The Dodgers spent a zillion dollars on payroll this year and they are using Scott Baker. They Jays are no different that the VAST majority of MLB teams.
  17. What team doesn't have that happen when their best pitcher gets hurt???
  18. Correct North - Shields and his 6.12 playoff ERA... The Royals rotation was Shields, Ventura, Guthrie, Vargas and Danny Duffy (who didn't start in the playoffs). Stroman was better than Shields last year, Ventura and Duffy were rookies, Vargas is a soft tossing lefty and Guthrie is a declining vet...
  19. I just want to record which rotations you think are better than the one AA constructed this year (prior to the Stro injury). Also - what elite pitcher took KC to the final last year?
  20. Unfortunately - that's how Gibbons manages...
  21. While you're crafting your list of better rotations, why don't you learn me on that teams that ARE built to put up runs when they're up against the other teams best pitchers like David Price.
  22. I'm amazing how you don't even get my point... How many full season's has Wacha pitched?
  23. Ervin Santana, Andrew Miller and David Robertson sure would have helped our rotation....awesome.
