Teoscar!!!!! You son of a gun

 

[Suntouchable13]

Suck it, Baker!

 

[EpochLink]

That ball was not even in the strike zone

 

[Wallet Inspector]

Huge home run.

 

[Suntouchable13]

These umps are unbelievable. I know the calls have went both ways, but MLB is letting umps get away with this shit.

Baker felt like a guy the org should have kept last winter and watching him blow 100 by people now kind of hurts.

I didn't like it at the time. Keeping a guy like Thornton on the 40-man over Baker didn't make much sense.

 

[Suntouchable13]

Can Whit Merrifield do something? No, he can not.

He's this year's Villar addition to the lineup.

 

[Suntouchable13]

Why did Dan say "he has to face 2 here"? Isn't the rule 3 batters or till the inning ends? So can't the Jays make a move after 1 batter here, if they wanted to? Because he faced one and the inning ended.

Same. Baker blew guys away in AAA last year and looked great in his 1 MLB appearance. Big guy, nice delivery, lots of velocity. He was a guy I really wanted to see more from and now he’s delivering elsewhere.

I think we kept Kay and Saucedo over him, too.

 

[Langdon Alger]

Oh poop

 

[Seath The Scaleless]

Is Santander using Mountcastle's bat or something?!? f***

Stress level: maximum

 

[ChuckNorris4Cup]

85mph right down the middle lol lucky

Stress level: maximum

There is no stress when you anticipate a full blown collapse.

It's refreshing to not have expectations when it's clear the players don't always have any either.....

 

[The Nemesis]

Oh wow. Thanks, ump!

That was an awful strike

 

[ChuckNorris4Cup]

Wow what a call lol

 

[Nineteen67]

Can’t even be mad if Baltimore wins this game

It was mostly just because of Mountcastle. Otherwise I would've been fine even with just a 1-run lead. Problem mostly was that Mountcastle becomes Mike Trout when there's a Blue Jay on the mound.

 

[Langdon Alger]

We’ll take it!

 

[Forgotusername]

That ball was not even in the strike zone

I guess you wouldn't like seeing a lot of Vladdy Sr's homeruns.

 

[Langdon Alger]

Cimber!

 

[Da Cool Rula]

Ok need a run or 2..... wishful thinking I know

That's kinda where I was headed. When Mountcastle is up, it's like Jays pitchers throw a pitch and then ask the ump for a new ball for the next hitter.

I admit, I wasn't prepared for the "plan b" of dealing with mountcastle: questionable umpiring!
