RupertKBD Posted April 13 Share Posted April 13 The Salami by Varsho is encouraging....the goose egg the rest of the way....not so much. What I really liked was how Mayza looked. That was the guy we're used to seeing. ....and Garcia looks fantastic. If he keeps painting the black with 98 Mph, Romano can be a setup man when he gets back.... 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gurn Posted April 14 Share Posted April 14 turner gets caught trying to steal second bae on a close play. He was the final out, after the Jays had scored a run on the previous play. I'm ok with the attempt, he was close, and it will force the opponents to have more on their mind. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RupertKBD Posted April 14 Share Posted April 14 Berrios didn't have his usual control today, but he made the pitches when he needed them....managed to get out of a couple of jams and ended up with the shutout win... The most encouraging thing was the fact that four of the five runs came with 2 out.... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The O's are the defending dision winners, the Yankees and Bosox improved and the Rays are the Rays.... At this point of the season, I don't think you worry too much about what the other teams are doing. Just get your own house in order. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gurn Posted April 15 Share Posted April 15 Bottom of 2nd IKF at the plate and the ump calls a pitch, 2-3 inches outside, a strike next pitch IKF looks like he might have taken a swing, first base ump says he checked his swing. They never showed a replay of the 'almost' swing. I'm wondering if the first base ump, gave IKF back the strike, the home plate took from him.?

UnkNuk Posted April 16 Share Posted April 16 Granted it's early days but for a billion dollar super team the Dodgers seem to be losing a fair number of games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RupertKBD Posted April 17 Share Posted April 17 Okay, I haven't made too much of Schneider's managing mistakes, but WTF? Swanson hasn't pitched in an MLB regular season game this year, so you decide to have him close a 2 run game against the Yankees? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RupertKBD Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 So....on the same day the Jays were blowing a 9th inning lead to the Yankees, the guy they're hoping will develop into their power hitting 3rd baseman went yard in a game against the Columbus Clippers. I don't have a video of it, (you might be able to find it if you go look) but according to the report I read, it went about 470 ft. This is Huntington Park in Columbus. The Ball hit by Orelvis Martinez ended up in one of those boxes on the 2nd floor of that brick building behind the stadium. IIRC, it was the second one from the left.... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gurn Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 Watching Blue Jay pre game, and they did a segment/story on Davis Schneider. Nicely done. Like him more- guy was wearing a J.J. Cale "troubadour" t shirt. Winner. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
