lets get a W....

ABE RULES! (get me outta jail man! HELP! I SWEAR I DIDNT DO IT!)

Thanks hi8is....

 

its my first game thread.... actually, I'm not even sure if I did it right

Looks like a winner to me. Pinned.

 

Today's pitcher, Casey Janssen is an interesting story. Check that, I don't know his story at all, but I can glean a whole lot just by looking at his stats from the baseball cube. He was a 4th round draft pick out of UCLA in 2004. His first three seasons at UCLA were very ordinary; decent K-rate, improving but average control, and a bunch of hits. Those pedestrian stats led him to be taken in the 49th round after his junior year. He returned to school, found his control, and his draft stock went through the roof.

 

I don't know if he made a change in his delivery, or if he finally just figured it out, but since his senior season, his control has only gotten better. The Jays took a very conservative route with him, starting him out in the Midwest League at age 23 last season. All he did was walk just 20 batters in about 150 innings across three levels. He's continued that trend at the big league level, with just 2 walks since his first start, a span of 35 innings pitched.

 

I think what I'm trying to say is, this kid throws strikes.

janssen: vs. LAA, 15.1 ip, 0er. Vs other opponets, 24.2 ip, 15 er

Let's go Sox! Count will get it done!

I dislike Canada.

I hope Geddy Lee is at the game today. The Sox always win when he's there.

Jose Contreras, yeeeeeees!

I don't get it. How does FOX affect the Sox game being on TV?

Its not on MLB Extra innings, its not on mlb.com. Nothing. Blackedout.

Uh...we're on CSN, not FOX today there Chief.

What does the TC stand for on the blue jay jerseys....it looks like there is a mic stand next to the letters....

Iguchi smashes one up the middle.

 

Thome no longer the league leader in RBIs as of last night.

 

And Hawk continues to complain that the opponent is cheating whenever our pitching sucks.

Its on CSN in chicago, in florida its on MLB Extra innings, and MLB extra innings isn't carrying any day games due to FOX.

Uh...we're on CSN, not FOX today there Chief.

 

When Fox has their games on, they have blackout rules for day games regardless of network. The exception being if it's a local team.

The Jays are parking on the outside corner with our righties. Just setup there, and hit the mit. They got the scouting report.

At least they made him throw a lot of pitches.
