I was at this game, does it count? I mean, it started out as a pretty good pitcher's duel between Stroman and Tomlin, and then it just turned into a bullpen death march.

I just googled "bullpen death march" and found two results, and one of them was me in this forum last year. https://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3773571&userid=0&perpage=40&pagenumber=25

The guy who threw a can of beer at Hyun Soo Kim during the AL wildcard game last year finally came to court and plead guilty. He'll be sentenced later this month. https://www.thestar.com/news/crime/2017/05/30/ken-pagan-pleads-guilty-to-throwing-beer-can-at-blue-jays-game.html

Whenever I hear that now my brain corrects it to "You betcha I fuckin' did it! Booya!"

Did I just see Yasiel Puig in a cameo as himself in "Angie Tribeca"? I'm pretty sure I did.

ihatepants posted:I noticed that there are always a ton of Blue Jays fans here when they are playing the Mariners. Does all of Canada support them because they're the only Canadian team left, do they make the trip from Toronto, or are there just a ton of transplants from Toronto? The Jays only play in Seattle once a year, so every Blue Jays fan from Regina on west who wants to see a game or two and doesn't want to go to Toronto makes the trip.

The Jays dropped 3/4 to the loving Braves and then rampaged through May so maybe that'll happen again now (it probably won't). I think I might actually cry if they trade Donaldson away, I'll miss him that much.

Apparently the Jays are about to pick something called a Logan Warmoth. RHP. Edit: they've listed him as a SS so maybe they don't want him as a pitcher.

IcePhoenix posted:AL ASG Update Anaemic voting for the Blue Jays is to be expected given their performance this year, but Josh Donaldson deserves to be an All-Star. I'm surprised Justin Smoak hasn't at least made it to fifth for 1B, given the season he's having and the way Sportsnet is pushing him every broadcast. I'm also surprised to see Encarnacion appear on the list. I thought they were hating him over in Cleveland.

Hey look, Justin Smoak made 4th. I guess that Sportsnet campaign is working after all.

Darude - Adam Sandstorm posted:As evidenced by the 0 times he's come in to get more than 3 outs all season. I was thinking of games like the ALWC last year where Osuna came in for the 9th and pitched 1.1, where Showalter infamously sat on Zach Britton waiting for the close that never came.
