Something here doesnt make sense. This is according to Zwelling (assuming what he says is true):

Read: https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DDG1BjoUAAE8Qwd.jpg

So if Osuna says he "feels great" on the field, then why didnt Gibby put him out on the field??
I understand anxiety bothering him off the field, but if it doesnt bother him when he's on-field then why not put him in???

I wanna reiterate, here are Osuna's own words: "I feel great out there (on the field)"

Man that sucks. Hope you guys don't think I am weak but I have have suffered the occasional panic attack.
I still get them all the time, along with depression. Been on drugs and number of times due to it. There's a general consensus in the medical community that anxiety and depression stem from the same part of the brain, and sometimes in manifest itself as anxiety and sometimes in manifest itself as depression.

Hopefully he gets himself righted.

Mental illness touches about 50% of us sometimes in our lives, and I believe it is 1 in 5 that have ongoing or recurring or permanent. Osuna seems so calm on the mound and he has been pitching in pressure going back to the Mexican league.......so maybe he should just pitch, but he needs to be analyzed......wouldn't it be terrible if he had a Piersall (look up Jimmy Piersall) and had a meltdown on the mound

I certainly don't think he is psycho...he is a young man and something is bothering him
Agreed Nad (and I thought you meant well!!)

Still dont like Gibby as manager though!!
We need change!!!

The positive we can take out of this, Estrada goes 7 and gives up 3 runnies.

Maybe he turns it around after all-star break like I'm predicting we will.
(LOL......my predictions usually go nowhere)

Looks like the Jays will have to take 4 out of 3 to get to the .500 mark

No playoffs for the Blue Jays this year lol. The Blue Jays need to rebuild to get young players. There need more of the Young Lads 25 years or under.

Young players give the team more energy and more spark to the team.

I will give you the fact they need to get a bit younger, but lots of time before we know what the play off picture looks like. The way I look at it, they can't possible have a worse second half of the year considering the injuries and struggles some of the guys have had.

The crappy part is trying to figure if your a buyer or seller when your only in the hunt for a wild card spot, because your play off run might only be one game if you loose.

Even though many claim it's a long season, in reality most teams decide whether they are in the hunt by the All Star break and decide to be sellers or buyer before the trade deadline.

So the Jays have to get hot for the next 3 weeks or they start trading the veterans.
