Didn't watch game 2 but sounds like Bart through a gem, wow lol, against one of the better offensive teams too

 

[ShaneB]

This Devon Travis at bat.. My goodness.

Edit... Dammit!

 

[Zaraki_Kenpachi]

FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK

 

[The Elite]

Jesus fuck Travis this at bat is an entire game in itself.

Edit: Bautista double play incoming.

 

[eyeless]

fuck

 

[jello44]

Castro strikes out looking on three straight pitches.

Didn't even swing the bat.

 

[The Elite]

Bautista's eye is intact at least.

 

[The Elite]

This strike zone is tight as fuck.
Edit: and then the ump calls a strike a mile inside.

 

[Zaraki_Kenpachi]

What should have been a walk. WTF

 

[eyeless]

Give me a ffccccccuvking break

 

[The Elite]

Ok. More baseball.

That should have been a walk though.

 

[The Elite]

Jays win!!!!!!!

 

[Zaraki_Kenpachi]

LMAO that ending

 

[ShaneB]

Wooo!

 

[eyeless]

yeeeehaw

 

[Flakster99]

What a night. Jays win and the DNC has been on fire tonight. Woohoo baby!

 

[outunderthestars]

That was a great inning! Love seeing the Jay's pull out a win without having To rely on power.

 

[CreeperBlocks]

Travis!!!

Yassss

 

[Silver Arrows]

Storen traded to M's for Joaquin Benoit

 

[PROh1bited]

Jays get Benoit for Storen and cash considerations.

Edit:Beaten

I like this move.

 

[Lion Heart]

What a sick game. Woot

 

[rando14]

Storen traded to M's for Joaquin Benoit

2 struggling relievers, hoping a change of environment helps both

 

[Malo]

And the Yankees win again. I've never been so miserable after a couple of wins.

Likewise. Storen became obsolete the minute Grilli came in.

 

[PROh1bited]

Storen has been shook since Papelbon bent him over and stole his job.

 

[outunderthestars]

Likewise. Storen became obsolete the minute Grilli came in.

Agreed.

 

[CreeperBlocks]

Storen traded to M's for Joaquin Benoit

Hurray, no more Storen

 

[DeaconKnowledge]

Awesome game.

Dunno how to feel about Upton. Every Time I think about him i'm reminded of this..

He's been playing pretty well this year. Let's hope he catches on.

 

[bonesmccoy]

Storen looked like he hated being in Toronto. Even after not sucking he would sulk off the field.

 

[Line_HTX]

Castro strikes out looking on three straight pitches.

Didn't even swing the bat.

LMAO, what the fuck, and with the bases loaded too.

 

[Mortemis]

Yeah, looks like a change of scenery trade. Benoit was really ineffective but he was a good presence for others in the clubhouse, and apparently made Eddie's slider the nasty stuff it is now. He will be missed, just not on the mound. lol

Toronto GAVE us money and took Benoit?

LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL

LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL

Lets see you laugh when Benoit is pitching Game 7 in the World Series!

Congrats to the NL on winning the series this year!

He got caught pressing buttons.

*flash kicks Line*

LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL

Storen actually had a worse year, though not by much. Hard to compare crappy relievers.

Benoit makes a little less so the cash probably covers that difference. Really, it's just an equal player & salary swap for a change of scenery.

Congrats to the NL on winning the series this year!

It's always been an even year anyways.

My The Show save says otherwise.

Spoiler

Giants vs. Blue Jays, MadBum vs. Stroman; Saunders gets MVP

 

[brianjones]

jansen with the heart attack special

looks like the giants might finally win

 

[User 479360]

What an ending tonight. The Padres really blew that one.

Ain't that typical of most Jays fans I know.

Just because we don't know everyone in the farm system doesn't mean we're not true fans. It's hard to keep up with it all for both the Leafs and Jays.

I've been a Jays fan all my life.

 

[Frozenprince]

Bart starting on Saturday on 3 days rest.

What could possibly go wrong.

 

[esmith08734]

Since the season is half over, more or less, I am going to examine my picks:

I had Texas and San Fran in the WS, that looks good still.
Trout for MVP, still looks doable.
Hamels for Cy Young, 11-2 with a sub 2.70 era.
Rizzo for NL MVP, not likely but he's having a great year.
deGrom for NL Cy Young, nope, lol
Seager for NL ROY, seems likely


My surprise teams: Twins (dead wrong) and Marlins (looks good)
Breakout player: I reached here with Didi Gregorious. I thought if he learned to keep his weight back on the ball, he'd have an easier time driving it and it looks like he's done that. I love his defense too. He's having a very, very good year. I think he was snubbed as an All Star.

 

[CheDominik]

Yeah. I would be okay with a 1 for 1 but they're going to ask for everybody.

Of course you would be okay, because it would be highway robbery.

 

[User 479360]

I hope Benoit will be a better fit in Toronto. Storen came with promise, and it'd suck to see him find that in Seattle and lose the trade.

But I guess it wasn't working here, so it had to happen. At least we got something for him.

 

[bonesmccoy]

LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL

Yes, that's how shitty Storen was for us.

 

[wbsmcs]

Yes, that's how shitty Storen was for us.

Ha reminds me of when Francisco Cordero was here and it seemed like he was blowing leads every other night.

 

[User 479360]

Or Sergio Santos

 

[JoseDFrog]

And the Yankees win again. I've never been so miserable after a couple of wins.

Me too. This team is leading me to drink. I'm bracing from the 10 game losing streak starting August 1.

 

[Frozenprince]

Y'all are gonna keep this old ass core together next year too, just watch.

 

[The Elite]

I hope the Yanks keep winning right up until the trade deadline... and then fall off a mountain.
