He's been bang on with all of it, IMO

We could have Tabby just repeating whatever Dan says instead, if you like

Phelps has to close the door here - they can't keep letting the Cubs re-extend their lead

I don’t mind the occasional rant but he does it all the time. If I wanted to listen to a old man complain all game, I’d watch the game with my dad

Damn. Thought Gurriel had enough of that one. He's due for a long ball.

That second strike call on Kirk was inexcusable. It should be easy to call something that high.

Those last two pitches weren't even close to the strike zone. Just terrible.

I think the ump got pissy after Kirk gave him the stinkeye after the first strike was called and was way outside.

Biggio watches a fastball middle of the strike zone go past him with two strikes. What could you possibly be looking for there? Yikes.

Big walk from Tapia. He might want to check for hives because I’m sure he’s allergic to walking.

As visually terrible as Kikuchi has been, White has a significantly higher ERA since he’s joined the Jays. I’m not sure what option exists. Maybe option White to triple A and bring up Merryweather and Thornton and maybe go with a bullpen game? I don’t know.
