2012 Toronto Blue Jays Thread

KJ goes yard - again. I think he's a better player than I expected him to be.

 

[Heroic Shrimp]

4-1 Jays, bottom of the 4th, 1 out, men at 1st and 2nd.

7 hits already, today.

 

[Heroic Shrimp]

Bases loaded triple by Escobar, now 7-1, still in the 4th, 1 out.

 

[bustaheims]

Encarnacion is in the zone so far this season.

 

[maplesyrup]

Yeah, no poop. Such a small change to the swing too (just simply keeping both hands on the bat during the follow-through.) That's it. Who knew?

When you have the kind of power and talent that Encarnacion has always had, it's often just a small adjustment that makes all the difference. It was a similar thing with Bautista a couple years ago.

 

[Derk]

Looks like the hitting may have finally started to come alive! 11 more runs today (so far).

 

[Deebo]

If they hang on to win, it will be a huge series win against a top team.

rangers were 16-6 overall and 8-1 on the road coming into this one.

 

[Derk]

Romero goes 8 innings, with only one real blemish (4 in the 5th). Looks like the bullpen will mop up in the 9th.

They were missing Hamilton, but they're still a stacked team.

 

[Deebo]

Brandon Morrow might be the cure for what ails Pujols.

 

[TML fan]

Bautista and Lind need to be dropped in the order. This is getting ridiculous.

 

[GhostofPotvin29]

Brandon Morrow might be the cure for what ails Pujols.

Or not.

3-hit shutout for Morrow.

 

[maplesyrup]

Seems I missed a beauty of a game by Morrow last night.

 

[Corn Flake]

Key injuries to the Yankees, and the Red Sox are about as dysfunctional as you can get right now.

Door could be wide open for the Jays this year.

 

[Derk]

Jays are on a bit of a roll - let's hope they keep it up tonight!

However, I am a bit nervous about the whole "slump busters" thing. Santana is 0-5, and of course, Pujols is still sitting on the schneid as far as home runs go.

On the other hand, maybe the Jays could have their slump busted - I'm looking at you Joey Bats and Adam Lind! ;D

 

[leafs_fan89]

let's go jays maybe lind will do something this game probably not

 

[Deebo]

Back to back complete game shutouts.

 

[maplesyrup]

97 pitches for Alvarez... 71 for strikes!

 

[Derk]

I guess they were due for a bad outing - Wilson must have been good, held the Jays to 6 hits. Hopefully they can get the series win today!

Baltimore keeps winning. Surprise surprise.
