Blue Jays GDT: (2015 v47)ALDS Game 1: vs TEX | Thu, Oct 8 | 3:30pm ET/12:30pm PT | Gallardo vs Price

[HellasLEAF]

Two innings we had Gallardo on the hook but only got 1.

Tough.

This. They did a great job limiting us. We needed to do more damage

 

[Habsawce]

MLB probably made Donaldson come out for evaluations becuase he clearly mouthed I'm fine. Which is fine, better for safety of players. Just ****ing sucks since teh roof being closed was a joke decision.

 

[p.l.f.]

Barry Davis says it's only a precaution

 

[Canada4Gold]

that slide was aggressive as ****

i dont mind it.

but the theory is you will always get there faster by running than sliding. And it's probably true. So by sliding Carrera got to the base later there than he should have.

Do you still not mind it?

 

[TF97]

Why you slide, Carrera?

NEVER slide at 1st unless it's to avoid a tag because the defender is off hte base. You will always reach faster at a full sprint than you will slowing down to dive headfirst.

This x1000

 

[Faltorvo]

series over book it

 

[GordieHoweHatTrick]

He would've had to go through concussion protocols. Perhaps the results were iffy and they wanted to do further testing.

Will he be able to slot back in if he passes protocol?

 

[Blitzkrug]

Oh joy, Pennington.

 

[The Nemesis]

that slide was aggressive as ****

i dont mind it.

Doesn't matter. It's been tested, you will reach faster if you sprint the whole way vs sliding. You slow down too much on the slide that it's not advantageous at all unless you're trying to get under a tag because the defender is up the line or off hte base.

 

[trellaine201]

Donaldson had to have been woozy or he'd still be in there.

Agreed, he's not coming out for precautionary reasons lol in a play off game.

Something's up

 

[Fantomas]

Will he be able to slot back in if he passes protocol?

Nope.

 

[Bigleaf]

Price has to shut them down right now.

 

[Scoogs]

The blood drained from my face when I saw Donaldson was lifted.

Jesus I hope he's back in there tomorrow.

 

[Blitzkrug]

Will he be able to slot back in if he passes protocol?

Nope. You pull a guy from a game and he's done for the day.

 

[Canada4Gold]

Will he be able to slot back in if he passes protocol?

in this game?

Ummm no, once you're out of the game you're out

 

[Loosie]

Jesus guys, we are not a one player team. If Donaldson is out that is not 'the series'

 

[TF97]

Will he be able to slot back in if he passes protocol?

Once a player is removed from a game. They cannot go back in.

 

[AustonMcDavid]

hahaha

 

[p.l.f.]

Watch out tulo

 

[Eyedea]

Hey look, Pillar held up.

 

[Daisy Jane]

Toronto sports curse in full effect, folks. That is, if Donaldson misses any length of time.

well. Sundin broke his hand, and then the Leafs made it all the way to the ECF on the back of Roberts and McCauley.

so.

holy. crap. Pillar ... duddeee..

 

[Habsawce]

What a bummer.

 

[Del Preston]

Pillar gunning for those shoulder blades.

 

[Fantomas]

Is Prince Fielder the most overpaid player in the league? A big fat slow guy with a .840 ops.

 

[DrunkUncleDenis]

damn, thought Carrera would beat that out when he hit it.

Pennington in to 3rd I guess. Hope JD is ready to go tomorrow. Going to be much tougher without him

Horrendous timing for a noon game tomorrow, no time to get his bearings straight.
