Blue Jays GDT: 2018 v2| Next: Fri May 18 | vs Oak| 7pm ET/4pm PT | Anderson vs Estrada

Happ is a strike out machine today!

 

[HamiltonNHL]

L4. ouch.

 

[HamiltonNHL]

I guess that's a No ?

Devon Travis Stats | Baseball-Reference.com

He's only 27 ? Body age is 39.

Hope he's not the new Ricky Romero.

Romero's knees were destroyed but he decided to hide his injuries and play through pain. I certainly hope Stroman isn't trying to do that, and if he is healthy then just chalk the slow start up to not receiving the necessary time to get ready for the season.

Stroman's ERA is a lot higher than it should be. He's been unlucky. His walk rate is too high compared to previous years though,

True and Stroman had no real spring training, so essentially the month of April is his training.

 

[Muston Atthews]

Lol that clearly hit the turf

 

[Forgotusername]

How was that not overturned.

 

[The Nemesis]

A+ work there, umps.

 

[Know Your Enemy]

How old are the people in these review rooms? and did they forget their glasses?

 

[The Nemesis]

Someone in the OF doesn't know how to hang their "K" signs

 

[Marshy]

Just scrap video review altogether what an absolute farce. Have the Jays ever won one of these?

I'm embarrassed for MLB.

 

[hoglund]

That is shocking, how did they miss that?

 

[The Nemesis]

Live look at the MLB video review room:

 

[hoglund]

What's more embarrassing for MLB is that trap was easy to see in live action, so in slow motion it was obvious, thank goodness it wasn't a crucial situation.

 

[The Nemesis]

I've just obtained a sample of the questionnaire that MLB gives to all aspiring employees for its video review crew:


25) A defensive play is being challenged on the basis of the ruled catch. Video evidence shows that the ball struck the ground and bounced into the defender's glove, but the umpire's view was obscured and he ruled it as a catch. Do you:

a) Overturn the call on the basis of the trapped ball
b) Uphold the call on the basis of not undercutting the on-field officials
c) Flip a coin
d) I don't know, I wasn't paying attention because Steve just showed up in the office with the pizzas for lunch and I need to get there fast because there's only ever one deluxe pizza and I don't want a repeat of last time where Sharon took the last 3 pieces while I was standing right behind her even though I said that was the one I wanted and I had to eat the vegetarian one, butI hate that one because it has banana peppers on it. Just tell the umpire to do whatever they feel like so I can get there first because who cares, it's only baseball.

The correct answer is "d"

 

[hoglund]

Good win and Happ is our new ace.

 

[Anthrax442]

I'm gonna be Pillar cheerleader this season.

 

[Anthrax442]

What in the hell just happened?

 

[Suntouchable13]

Diaz is brutal

 

[shaner8989]

Martin and Diaz shouldn’t be in the majors. Utter trash
