The 2016 Toronto Blue Jays Thread

[flames_fan_down_under]

Donaldson saying what needs to be said. How that situation was handled was brutal. Same with how it was handled with Matt Bush in Texas.

“They’re putting my job in jeopardy,” Donaldson said. “What if he hits me in the neck right there? What if he hits me in the eye? You saw Stanton a couple years ago—he got hit in the face. The ball crushed his face. It doesn’t take much in order to break these bones in your face. And Phil Hughes didn’t throw the ball at my face. But it only takes an eighth of an inch off your release point in order for the ball to go somewhere else.”

Good on Donaldson for saying that. It's level headed and well though out quotes - hopefully something changes here. The way the MLB has handled the last few weeks for the Jays is just brutal. First the incident in Texas, and now the trigger-finger ejections in the Twin's series. How Gibby gets tossed there for asking why the other team is allowed to throw at their start player without even a warning (let alone getting tossed) is beyond me.

Geebus.......where do the Jays rank in the AL in terms of guys left on base this season?

[KootenayFlamesFan]

2nd and 3rd.........and nothing. Going to be one of those games I guess.

[KelVarnsen]

New drinking game. Do a shot when the Jays score a runner that was in scoring position.

Again, nothing to show for getting RISP. And yeah, that AB by EE was dreadful.

[Karl]

[Dan02]

That one was out of every ballpark in the league.

[Karl]

This is bloody ridiculous. When will this crap turn around?

[Karl]

[Machiavelli]

Well, Dickey has done his part today.

[puffnstuff]

Stupid non-standard stadiums.

And what is up with wandering strike zones the last few weeks?

[Machiavelli]
