Now here is some humor. Thursday's game is at 12:37 EDT. Cora has worked his primary BP guys and this game is not over yet. Tomorrow's RS starter : Ryan Weber. It's a BP/opener type game.
-
That's a good , new thought. All the discussion is about moving JBJr, but this season needs to figure out Benintendi's role on this team going forward. You would have to listen with an open mind.
-
Hit the walkoff or gamewinner and get on ESPN. It's all about the clicks come contract time.
-
Hey SS, would you trade heads up right now the entire Toronto pen for the Sox pen and take your chances ??
-
Walden threw his best pitches and got a little lucky with a freeswinging Galvis and a 370' flyball.
-
Game would have been over and won, had Walden been asked to throw nothing but sliders to light hitting Jansen
-
I think there was probably a belief that the hitting would carry them well enough to the trade deadline point where they could make moves if needed. The hitters aren't doing it consistently.
-
Yes, it did. Still feels that way. Cora has burned up 3 of his "better" BP guys.
-
Relievers, hitters or Leon calling a FB instead of Walden's better slider? Or as Slasher says, Cora pulling Porcello ?
-
That was a .183 hitter messing up the game. 3 relievers , 3 innings , 3 runs. WTF ??
-
He was smiling on the bench, wearing a sweater, chewing seeds, so i will guess tomorrow.
-
There needs to be a PSA advising the Jays to roll over, lay down and die when playing the 119 game winning Red Sox. They are giving no respect.
-
throwing nothing but heifer heat and calf fry cheese
-
Nice throw Matty
-
Note Cora saving money on Barnes next year arb hearing by pitching him without a save opportunity in the 8th. Try Thornburg for the save since he won't be looking for a raise.
-
I know there is a lot of talk about giving relievers, especially those with control issues, clean innings to pitch. Under tonight's circumstances and Rick's pitch count , it may have made more sense to run him out to start the 7th and pull upon getting a baserunner , if any. Now the BP still needs to get 6 more outs, with a slim cushion, thanks for Rafi's blast.
-
I don't care what Workman's record and stats are. This is a horseshit performance by a choking pitcher whose ass is eating his shorts. 28 pitches to get 3 outs and make it a one run game. Nice work, don't choke on the postgame meal
-
Always amazed at 2 out hitting. Workman gets 2 outs and a 1-2 count on Galvis with just 9 pitches. Now 2nd and 3rd after another 2 strike count, still 2 out. Workman turns it into a pressure situation. Now a 4 pitch walk to load the bases. When a reliever gets up to 20 or more pitches, really bad things happen.
-
Definitely so. Deserves a win here and the team needs it.
-
I don't think Rick P will be happy to be pulled after 6 and 80 pitches, from his personal perspective. AC is looking to nail the win and avoid the late Porcello ball.
-
The killer instinct has been missing most of this season. Scoring key runs late in the game, without HR's. Glad to get the one more , but it was time for a 2 or 3 run double right there
-
JBJr is officially hot . He completely gets jammed , but makes a double out of it.
-
Porcello with 66 pitches through 5, could go deep (8th) if he can avoid the Porcellos.
-
Benentendi, with lower power #'s this year looks a lot more like a #6 or #7 hitter than leadoff. A .420 SLG % is low among the top 6 or 7 RS regulars and the .355 OBP is about the same.
-
The obligatory Porcello but not a high pitch. Medium low and outside taken for a ride by Vlad Jr. Now we will need more runs.
