I've seen games go perfect for 12 innings all for naught. I've seen no-hitters pitched on illicit drugs. Homer streaks lasting eight games and 20 run losses. I've seen pennants won and seasons collapse. All these memories will be lost in time. Like tears in the rain.

Time to die.

It's nice to see that Liriano's picking up where he left off :smithicide:

Alfredo Simon is getting handshakes in the dugout, sounds like he is an All-Star.

For anyone watching the CLE/CHW game, I just found out that Trevor Bauer has some interesting videos on his Youtube channel about his pitching methodology.

I'm probably late to the party on that but maybe I'm not the only one.

I feel like the Jays current 'hitting is for heretics' lineup vs. David Price may be a slight mismatch.

On the other hand, no Buck today so I also feel as though I have to take advantage of this opportunity.

Probably Cueto, he's ineligible now that he's pitched on Sunday before the ASG. When MadBum goes this afternoon they'll need to pick a sub for him too.

OK awesome. Now that lightning needs to roll in for an hour and knock Cueto out at four innings and we might have some kind of shot

No runs, 10 strikeouts for Bauer, plus popping Gomes in the head a couple times. Not bad.

I'm guess I'm glad someone gets some enjoyment out of them.

Jays are just never going to beat Price.

How effective would it be to just bunt every at bat in an attempt to tire out a pitcher? If anyone gets on they should take egregious one-way leads so that the pitcher has to constantly throw over.

I like Morse, but I really wish he would cut his hair, because that combined with his number makes me mistake him for Crawford.
