First, this is the "crap"that I was speaking of in a previous post-taking a great effort by Pillar and tweaking it to take a shot at Tulo.Did you see pillar crashed into the wall making the catch? If that was Tulo he would be out of commission for life. Tulo has to be the Jays' version of Lupul.
Fuckin' Tulo, killing those rallies last night with those 2 hits and a walk.like Tulo, but balls at the wall in center field are well beyond his range. Can't see that crash happening. Of course, you could say Tulo doesn't hustle I guess.
Tulo a couple of hits last night, a nice in the hole play, and scored from first on Pillar's double..........Arizona has ugly uniforms.........but a no name pitcher and staff again stymie. How many have we lost to the no names, and whatever happened to Ross Stribling? Easier to take losses against Kershaw or Sale.
A pleasant surprise to get a crowd of 41000 on a Tuesday night. Now if only the 50-50 people would stop selling me losing tickets.

And that aricle has exactly what connection to Pillar's catch? I'm not disputing that he may be injury prone, but I'm pretty sure they had access to his injury history when they got him. Can't really say Reyes was particularly durable either.This article is from 3 years ago and even then it was a well known fact he is fragile.

"This is a player who has played six-plus seasons and been placed on the disabled list four different times with a handful of other day-to-day injuries thrown into the mix between DL stints. Tulo has just about every skill you could ask for from a franchise shortstop, but staying healthy is not one of them."
Meanwhile JB stubs his toe and can't play.
Lighten up you pussy, I was kidding.Busterhut has some of the most rational, intelligent comments on this thread.
You, on the other hand.....
Damn! You are just too clever.:rockon:Lighten up you pussy, I was kidding.
Oh, and I have reasonable suspicion that gcostanza=shack=busterhut
Even if NS has injured his elbow the Mets still win that trade. Strasburg and Fernandez are two examples of young studs who blew their arms out early but with advanced surgery and a year of rehab they have come back even stronger.Noah Syndegard leaves game with elbow soreness. Let's not judge the Dickey trade just yet. There's always a risk with young flame throwers.
By end of season we will have gotten from RAD a 4 yr avg of 33 starts and 210IP, Total ERA will likely be under 4.00 all for $12m per yr.
NS has made a total of 40 starts so far.

A lot of the guys on that list were never going to make it big even if they stayed healthy, Syndergaard is one of the exceptions to the rule. He no doubt would be included in my example of two. Interesting that 3 other Met youngsters had TJ surgery and have all recovered quite well, deGrom, Harvey, and Matz.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_baseball_players_who_underwent_Tommy_John_surgery
Yup, small sample size of 2. Here's the full list, most of them never came back to their former glory.
I remember learning thatif A=B and A=C, then B=C.Tulo with another dinger today. He's hitting over .300 the last 18 games
