  4. What's that Momma's something place on Queensway, jaysblue said it sucked, he worked there, I thought it was great. Vague, I know. Our master electrician brought us there(Italian), was tasty. Found it... http://www.mammamartinos.ca/ The veal is an incredible sandwich.

    Cool...
  6. I'm not sure what you're trying to get at here, I'm just showing how great he's been since coming off the DL. There's a lot more to a batter than just average, his ISO, wOBA, wRC+ numbers were off the hook.
  7. I particularly liked this... “I come here, they had their arms open to me. They asked me what I wanted to do. And then (manager John Gibbons) saying, you’re the closer, that’s what you were born to do, you’re the man. I said, I’m not going to let you down.” There was an immediate simpatico with pitching coach Pete Walker as well. Together they fixed the slider that had gone errant, restored its snap with a small mechanical adjustment. “I knew the things I had to work on,” Giles explains. “I know myself. I’m a really good pitcher, good profile pitcher. If something’s wrong, I know how to fix it. It’s my body.’’ This, he implies, hadn’t happened in Houston and the relationship went downhill from there. “When I came here, they stayed patient with me. I said, hey, I want to work on this thing till I’m comfortable. All right. OK, I’m comfortable, let’s move on to this next thing. Pitching, you can’t just try to fix everything at once. “For me, I had to take baby steps to get my groove back. The Jays allowed me to do that. Yeah, the team was out of contention, but it doesn’t matter. It’s still my career. I still have to prove myself. Them being so patient with me, understanding what I want to do, was very, very big.’’ He means, specifically, that management didn’t freak out as his fastball velocity dipped while he was working out those issues. “Eventually, when your body gets comfortable, it’s going to spike back up, which it’s done. My control has been better. My slider’s better. My velo’s back.’’
  8. Still a kick in the nuts, pal. It happened during pre-game warm up, wtf?

  10. I'm hoping it stays close, and goes down to the wire in singles play on Sunday. Europe's kicking ass this afternoon thus far.
  11. This mornings matches were funtastic!
  12. Yikes, I didn't know Perry's out for 5 months? What a kick in the balls that is to Pendleton!

  14. I believe so, unless they run into big injuries, this offense is ridiculous.
  15. Who was that dude wearing the bandana standing up in the endzone, they seemed to know him?
  16. They give no reason why?
