J.A. Happ vs Red Sox since 2015:
10 starts
1.78 ERA
.202 opp BA
45 K/18 BB


Numbers must have been something before the mauling the Sox put on him last time out.

I'm ok with our rotation now. My only hope is Happ is better than Gray so I don't have to see him start an important game i October

Love how the second Brandon Drury was traded to the Yankees he became some sort of valuable commodity. He's Brock Holt minus 4 years. Yawn.

Significantly more pop. He hit more HR in 2016 than Holt has hit in his whole career.

OPS+ of 92. I think the only thing he has going for him that demonstrates he's going to be better than a utility infielder is his age. And he's going to be 26 in a month so that ship is probably leaving the port too.

At least Drury doesn't look like a love child from Damon and Wahlberg....

I liked the deal at the time, but the vision and migraine issues were a problem, and of course once Andujar hit the scene, it was all over for Drury.

I never got the hype, although I didn't mind the upside of getting him for a bag of old socks. But people talked around here that Andujar was expendable because Drury could step right in, that I never bought, other than flashes, Drury never proved to be a reliable every day contributor

If nothing else, he bought them another year of control on Andujar.

Cubs must've offered something the Jays perceived as better than Drury straight up.

He's got really good stuff, but doesn't have the first clue about how to pitch.

Looks like he might be on his way to Dr Andrews anyway.
