Granting his own timeouts now. Total clown
Cardinals look like the White Sox lately. Pitcher just launched one into CF on easy dp

Jesus Christ.
WHY DO WE HAVE RIGHTIES ON THE BENCH UNUSED.
LaRoche is getting the veteran treatment where he won't be benched, regardless of what the splits say.

6 2/3 of 1 run ball off this clown.
Lineup has no firepower against LHP. Incredibly poor construction of the roster.

No reason for Bonifacio to be on this roster if you don't use him like that.
Just a waste of space for two months now.
QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jul 8, 2015 -> 02:44 AM)
Well you know I would.
0/6 against the lefties the last 2 nights. Woulda been nice to see him have a day off and have Bonifacio in somewhere. He had good numbers against Buehrle before last night so maybe tonight.
No reason for Soto not to be playing one of these games to give you a decent DH

Probably one of the top 10 games I've ever been to. I know it came through on TV too, but the crowd went crazy (without any stupid MAKE SOME NOISE prompts) every time Sale got 2 strikes. I was so wrapped in watching those two guys chop through the lineups that I lost track of the score, but the rally was thrilling and made all the sweeter because we didn't hang any earned runs on Buehrle. There was an extra layer of drama in the stadium from watching the sky and wondering if they would beat the rain. Under two hours, with two replays!
Awesome game and a unique experience given the state of today's baseball.
I had to listen to the first 3 innings on the radio, and it was fascinating as there were audible groans when the Blue Jays made outs that were strikeouts.

In all seriousness, if you let Samardjiza sign somewhere else, they will need at least one more starter. I'd prefer a lefty, but if Mark comes at the right price and on the short term, hell yes.
I assume you mean a righty?

Why? We have Rodon, Sale, and Q vs. Kendrick, Lester, and Arrieta. I feel pretty good about those matchups.
Hendricks, Lester and Arrieta (2 runs in last 30 innings) have been awesome lately. Should be a low scoring series.
