Blue Jays GDT: ('14 v6) Next Game: Vs TB|May 27|7pm ET/4pm PT| Cobb vs Buehrle

[The Nemesis]

ooh! and DFA means designated for assignment, right? that one I know
so Loup is playing now because we're up by a few - and Hutch was having bad control (hence the walks and the runs he let in the 5th) :nod) if we can hold them, we don't see Janseen - Loup can get the...save, right?

I.... think so? The save rule gets kind of fuzzy past the one clause that is the most familiar (enter the game in the 9th with a lead of 3 runs or less, and finish the game without coughing up the lead). But according to the rulebook you can earn a save if you enter teh game with the lead, pitch at least 3 innings, not cough up said lead, and finish the game.

Won't happen though. Loup pretty much never goes more than 2 innings.

 

[Eyedea]

I have no idea wtf he was doing last year, maybe it was arrogance because of all the talent we had but he's been a totally different manager this year. He's ****ing using his head and actually thinking of a game plan and acting like a manager instead of just sitting there with his mouth full of tobacco, his right hand in his pant and the other holding a diet coke. (Yeah I know too many details) lol

His bullpen was still strong. There just wasn't a lot he could have done considering players were playing well below expectations and there were injuries.

 

[Woodman19]

I swear that Gose to walk to 1st faster than Navarro running.

 

[Cloned]

Offense needed a game like tonight after being essentially kept in check by a good A's pitching staff.

Says something about the makeup of this team that they still managed to sweep the A's despite that.

Well that's true, no one expected them to be that bad. Plus Reyes being gone for nearly half the year hurt the team. Speaking of Reyes, I love having two absolute speed burners in the line-up with him and Gose. This team has a great mix of everything.

there are 3 ays to get a save aren't there?

The conventional pitch an inning or more with a 3 run lead or less. Finish the game holding the lead.

The finish the game pitching 3 or more innings holding the lead that the team had when you came in.

And the come into the game with the tying run on deck, on base, or hitting and finish the game holding the lead.

At least IIRC that's the 3, I may be forgetting something.

Could Gose get to 2nd before Navarro got to 1st, assuming they started at the same time from home obviously?

 

[p.l.f.]

Sucks everyone (but tampa) won in the east today, oh well

 

[Schennanigans]

Is this real life, are we this good? Even with questionable starting pitching the offence picks up the mess.

 

[Woodman19]

That is gold

 

[Blitzkrug]

This is like if i learned to hit in MLB 14: The Show, except better.

Just kidding, i'll never learn to hit in those games.

 

[Canada4Gold]

Dodgers are having a little fun trying to throw back to back no hitters

This is what AA imagined last year with Bonifacio and Reyes. Although I will say Rajai Davis did an admirable job.

Differences this year:

Reyes healthy and hitting
Gose doing what Bonifacio should have been doing
Hutchison pitching the way JJ should have
Dickey having an ERA below 4
Buerhle having 8 wins

And the biggest difference:

Seitzer being an actual hitting coach with a game plan and teaching ability, none of this Chad Mottola or Murphy nonsense.

 

[TootooTrain]

Epic. The facial expressions are perfect.

 

[canucksfan]

Now I can do work.

Murphy was the worst hitting coach we've had in a long time

 

[Leaf Rocket]

so awesome

 

[Cor]

Jose Reyes is sick.... what a throw

Phillies should be relegated to AAA if they get no hit again.

 

[Canada4Gold]

Different team tonight. The Reds. And it`s a perfect game actually. 17 straight outs.

 

[Del Preston]

Five run game in the bottom of the 7th, man on second, two out. Now's the time to take third on defensive indifference and see if the benches clear.

 

[Blitzkrug]

Cueto desperate to the point where's trying to bunt to break up the perfecto.

Poor Reds.
