Red Sox, still in first, let Blue Jays win: Tim Tebow to the Beef?

[Uno]

In the Jays defense, it's Heatwave who embarrasses himself

Hard to blame them just because of an idiot fan who grossly overrates them every year

Also, another RBI for the Yankee catcher. another 0-fer for K-cibia

Expanding the runs created gap even further

Yeah but there was a lot of hype going into the season for the jays...I get that he does this no matter what...but at some point he should be getting mad at the team (irrationally) for proving him wrong so many times

Rock's not going to be here tomorrow

In true Rock fashion, he reminded the boards of that no fewer than 800 times

lol wanna bet?

Gardner makes it even with the pitchout against a catcher who catches a lot of guys...gardner is slow

So How long do I have to wait to call Chris Davis a top 5 First-basemen? Or just Top 10?

At first I thought his Hot streak would die a cold death pretty quick because he had JPA like plate Discipline. But his approach at the plate has improved.. He finally learned to draw walks instead of expanding his strike zone like he's Vlad Guerrero

He aint hitting .350, But .280-.290 isn't unreasonable, considering his strikeswing rate and K rate are down thus far..

Can't see him Not slugging at least .500 again..

and a steal of third...

longer than a month...but he looks really good...and he's just entering his prime

Yeah, but that hype was mostly coming from the same talking heads who told us the 2011 and 2012 seasons weren't worth playing, because a Red Sox-Phillies and Angels-Marlins world series respectively are foregone conclusions

And Heatwave

If he's still raking by the end of May, I don't think it's unreasonable to call him a top 5-10 1B

I think Positive Hype's corpse was found in the middle of the Atlantic after MPL'ing off his flotilla

Some Sox fans weren't mad. Snoogins was still in denial about it months after it happened

 

[Village Plumber]

Check that.... I don't think it's unreasonable to call Davis a top 10 1B right now.

If he's still raking after another month, top 5 isn't unreasonable

Baseball was a dying sport

He made sure to remind us of that constantly. Much less often now, oddly enough

Baseball took some steroids...now they're dying much slower

 

[PeteNYC]

holy christ...the Jays are historically bad!
But, it's early and according to Heater Gammons, they just need to win games to win.

anyone know why Nix is batting second?

 

[Village Plumber]

Sigh.... why did Girardi bring up another lefty bat to take Youk's roster spot?

(I don't even know if he hits lefties well, but with Girardi, it's irrelevant)

And he's a 2B?

Can Nynasty explain this one?

 

[Village Plumber]

Same reason Ben Francisco was doing it for a while

He swings from the right side of the plate

No other reason

Took Girardi an entire month just to realize that he shouldn't blindly bench Hafner against lefties

So they can justify not playing them with the lack of opportunities to do so...Nix should never be batting second for any team...

I'd rather group all of the lefties together than have nix anywhere near an important AB at the top of the order
