OT: The Toronto Blue Jays

[MapleLeafBlueJayBoy]

I feel bad for Stripling. He has been pitching well for the Jays.

 

[zeke]

Santiago Espinal our 9th inning pinch hitter against Chapman!

 

[zeke]

Perfect.

 

[zeke]

A) vladdy was safe
B) that wasn't a foul

 

[zeke]

I miss Gibby.

Lose your sh!t on them Montoya.

 

[Killer93]

Jobbed by the umps. I am shocked

 

[manny]

Vladdy was probably safe.

They intentionally looked at three bad angles and quickly decided they didn’t have enough evidence to overturn. Brutal. Would have been a 10-min delay making sure they’d exhausted every possible option if it was a Yankee base runner.

 

[Jeremy]

Really looking forward to Springer joining the lineup in a few days or so. Maybe he can provide a spark and get these guys going.

 

[manny]

You hope Springer can provide a spark to the bullpen?

The offense is fine and does not need a spark. They faced Cole and Chapman tonight. They had 50 hits in their last series.

 

[Deckie007]

He gonna close for them?

 

[Jeremy]

He was an exciting addition and is one of our best players. I understand pitching is the issue, I’ve been posting about it, but adding a leader and talent like him can give a boost to the team as a whole. It will certainly add some energy and optimism.

 

[manny]

They should just add Tony Robbins to the staff. Baseball abilities be damned.

 

[Jeremy]

@manny

Don’t let the Jays’ struggles get to you.

still haven't watched a second of baseball.

Baseball is great, not sure why you’d be proud of this.

Just care less. The solution to most of life’s problems.

 

[mbow30]

well, that's the point. love baseball.

my favourite team is run by idiots.

why would i invest time (and eyeballs)?

 

[manny]

I agree with you on the people running the team, but watch anyway. Less vested in the outcome because I don't see any possibility of contending with these guys in charge. The game remains beautiful.

I watch the highlights on youtube, can't be bothered to sit through games though, for similar reasons.

 

[anne25]

Your loss.

I must admit I record the game and start watching about an hour after start time. That way I can skip any boring parts and most of the commercials. Not all but most of the games are fun or at least interesting to watch.
