[Loosie]

Superman strikes again! That leap was a thing of beauty!

 

[trellaine201]

Nice grab in CF

 

[Channelcat]

Wow! Now if Pearce could just track a ball

 

[Canada4Gold]

Now, give Danny Barnes the next 2 innings

 

[TootooTrain]

It's insane how often he jumps that close to the warning track. Gave me shivers just watching it in slow motion.

 

[The Nemesis]

TV Dive.

 

[ShaneFalco]

Yeah Z won't be a fan

 

[Loosie]

TV Dive.

I thought about adding "Let me see someone call that a TV dive"

 

[Canada4Gold]

TV Dive.

Did you see Stroman after that Pillar dive? He was happy about it, even celebrated a little, what's he happy about, it was his fault that ball was hit so hard to begin with. What a short little puke. Send him to Buffalo

Buffalo's too good for him. Send him back to Dominican Summer League until he learns his place as a faceless, emotionless, robot reliever.


Flash Gordon would be spinning in his grave.

 

[The Nemesis]

Danny Barnes?

(just kidding. I love some more Barnes innings)

 

[Canada4Gold]

Trade Osuna, Danny Barnes for closer

 

[The Nemesis]

Trade Osuna, Danny Barnes for closer

No! Then we don't see him until the 9th instead of when it matters.

Jason Grilli for closer, have Barnes, Osuna, Smith, Tepera and (eventually) Biagini in the flexible pen spots.

 

[The Nemesis]

Scratch my previous comment:

Ryan Goins for closer.

 

[ShaneFalco]

Ryan Goins for clean-up hitter

 

[Canada4Gold]

Nah Danny Barnes gonna be the first closer who only does 3 inning saves. If the starter can get the lead through 6, Barnes' got this locked down.

We're probably gonna need to get another 3 inning closer to go with him too though, not because Barnes can't pitch 3 innings every game but because it would be way too unfair to the opposition to have to face Danny Barnes for 3 innings each and every game.

Maybe it's time to resurrect an older idea from the halcyon days of 2013-2014:

Brett Lawrie for closer.

I hear he's got a knuckleball. And nothing better to do than grow a shut-in beard and scream at rubik's cubes

 

[Canada4Gold]

How nice of Mr. Barnes to let Cleveland have a baserunner.

 

[Canada4Gold]

Danny Barnes sucks. DFA

 

[The Nemesis]

Danny Barnes sucks. DFA

Save us Matt Dermody

Or Nestor Molina. I wonder what he's up to nowadays.

 

[The Nemesis]

Or Nestor Molina. I wonder what he's up to nowadays.

The answer to my own question appears to be: Playing mediocre ball as a starter in the Mexican League.

chilling with Sergio Santos probably laughing about how they both failed so misrably after that trade

 

[Canada4Gold]

No don't concede a run, it'll ruin Barnes' perfect ERA

 

[Canada4Gold]

you have got to be kidding me, he didn't interfere with him

"Whatever happened to random Blue Jays relievers" would make a fascinating podcast topic. Maybe I need to resurrect that Blue Jays Hipsters resurrection podcast version idea.




And hey, look at that.
