In that case the Jays should call him up when his brother is the ump for that game.
Blue Jays: 2015 edition

Volquez hit a White Sox, then took a swing at Semardzija. He goes after Donaldson after Sanchez's errant pitch and EE gets in his grill. EE is a laid back guy but I'm not sure he's very likeable when he's angry. I don't like Volquez's chances against either of those dudes.
It was quite comical really.
EE has the temperament of a teddy bear but something about him tells me he doesn't suffer macho men gladly. He got into Volquez's grill, Lorenzo Cain attempted to intercede and EE pushed him back like he Woody Allen.

I assume he means Josh was showing off a little too much??
Volquez is the real pussy.
Throw better pitches then if you dont wanna give up so many homers
WTF does he mean by "pimping"??!

I wouldn't call Volquez a pussy, he was following the Ferguson Jenkins code. Canada's greatest pitcher was known for pitching inside to power hitters and wasn't above knocking them on their ass if they did too much damage to his club.
Volquez figured he had a better chance of getting his message through to Donaldson. Obviously he wasn't going to go after Jose, his response can be demoralizing. Not sure if the pitch to Tulo was intentional, was he calling the ump's bluff?

From wiki: To avoid potential conflicts of interest, Jim does not work behind the plate during his brother's starts. More recently, Jim has not officiated games that includes his brother's team. If his crew is involved in games that include Randy's team, he is removed from those games and switches with another umpire.
It's a 5 game rotation, not 5 days, but occasionally they do move a guy up in the rotation if he has had 4 off days prior (or even in the case of RA Dickey yesterday, he went one day early). So Price should go on Saturday against the Yanks, and then again the following Friday against the Yanks. Then Fri 21st in LA and 27th in Texas. All assuming the 5 game thing and not 5 days.
Is it just my imagination? Has anyone else noticed a subtle change in the TV broadcasts? Production values: more close ups, more angles, more cameras, quicker/better replays and recaps, etc.?
And can anyone explain why they insist on dressing Zauny in business suits when it seems obvious he would look much more like himself if he wore more sportier clothes?
Curious mind wants to know... :wink:

The Blue Jays have said Price will pitch every 5th day (barring rainouts on days he's scheduled), and others (read Hutch) will be bumped to keep David on his schedule.
Otherwise, what DanJ said is accurate, and a normal situation.
I am happy with the blue jays . But I just to tell to the blue jays and their fans . they have to win day by day and game by game . And go to playoffs . What happening when they get a good players they thinking World Series ! World Series !
There are lot of work to get there .
