Blue Jays: 2015 edition

[Dawgger]

Stealing?
Fred McGriff & Tony Fernandez went the other way.

It turned out well for the Jays but as I recall there were a lot of fans initially questioning the move. I don't believe anyone thought the Jays stole anything at the time!

It turned out very well for the Blue Jays.
When the trade was made there was no thought that Toronto had 'stolen' anything.

A far better (more accurate) comparison for the Dickey trade would be David Cone for Jeff Kent.

Lawrie is hitting .266 with 3 HR's and 18 ribbies.
He's on course to hit about 10 homers and 60 RBI's or so.

If the 3 minor league prospects dont pan out this will be a huge steal for the Jays

I'm pretty sure Lawrie is no alcoholic

SN runner says game will start at 9:10.

 

[Ironhead]

And away we go ... first pitch is on time.

 

[AK-47]

4-1 already.

Maybe the rain will save us

If the rain doesn't save them you could always call for someone to fire the weather person!:wink:

 

[AK-47]

Donaldson is not human!!!!

4th straight game with a homer

 

[Ironhead]

If I see Donaldson in the dry cleaners I will certainly recognize him !

 

[AK-47]

No, this isn't a repeat, its live and your boy just crushed a 3 run dinger to tie it at 4-4.
You're right, this guy is something!

Edit - lol, you beat me by 2min

And now Colabello knocks one out.
Starting to like this guy also.

I would even argue perhaps Cola should move up in the batting order ahead of EE

Coca-Colabello !
You beat me to it AK.

 

[Butler1000]

Another big quality start by the rotation. Things are starting to gel a bit.

And oh man is Donaldson hot right now.

 

[AK-47]

Tampa lose, Yankees are losing. Jays could be 2.5 gms behind 1st place later tonight

And to think the Jays designated Colabello for assignment earlier in the year. He comes back to haunt his former team.
