Feels like Reyes will never win a ball game. Either bad pitching, or bad luck, but the dude just never gets the job done.

Yet he keeps getting chances and probably will get more as long as Cecil is still down, and it doesn't look like management wants Stewart to get involved in the bigs just yet.

Reyes is just barely a #5 starter in the MLB. Even today, he only gave up three runs(only one of which should have been earned), but I think every lead-off hitter got on somehow. Defense didn't really help him out, but there's a reason why someone goes 26 starts without a win. Just brutal.

Jo-Jo wasn't overly bad today, and has been getting better since a terrible start. His ERA is just over 4 in May, and opponents are hitting just over .230 in that same time period.

If he continues those numbers the rest of the way, he'll be a good #5

Definitely not. Pitch him outside, he'll go to right field as well.

There is nothing you can do. He will beat you.

How does he keep doing this. Yet another bomb for Bautista, and again, no cheapie, that one was long.

Oh man, it's like batting practice for Bautista. Thats 15 on the year for him. Why on Earth did the Jays sign a one year wonder like this.

This is absurd...the hat trick for Bautista. Seriously he's making juice era Delgado look like a washed up chump.

There's no sexier sound than the crack of a sure home run against a bat. Sigh....
