Well, that's always been the big question with him. Can he lay off the bad pitches (especially breaking balls) or will he flail away?That bat speed / exit velocity is pretty legit regardless, though. If he could crank that BB% up to like 8% or something he'd be pretty valuable

Looking like the end of the Jon Jay era in STL.
Lol Niese. His wife's having a kid and he pitched. I dunno guys
Jays fan have made the migration down to Seattle.
Apparently for Jon Gant and Rafael Montero. Or Jon Gant and Rob Whalen. Somebody.
I love how Safeco fills with Canadians whenever the Blue Jays are in town.
Likely too late to make a difference, though. This trade should have been made during the break.Those 2 guys are waaaay better than anyone on the bench now.

He's 36.At the very least it gives us an extended look at Uribe to potentially re-sign him for cheap for next year.
He's 36.
Now that the Astros have Kazmir, I think they could be a force in the playoffs. Teams will face Keuchel and Kazmir at least once each series! It's getting to be exciting times for Astros fans
If it's Gant and Whalen we fucking robbed ya'll.
You probably have your own opinions on those players, but most reactions had it pegged as a fairly even trade. 2 months of Uribe and KJ probably just isn't worth that much.
