Tough night for Emilio Bonifacio and Adam Lind. Tomorrow should be a win with Happ as he is full of confidence.

I'd like to dropkick Adam Lind off of this team forever. That lazy jerk and his smug face drive me nuts. Not to mention he sucks.

Man, sportsnet does a bad job at broadcasting baseball too. The familiar bouncing virtual ads, the strike zone box which is not calibrated even close to where balls were being thrown. Finally someone having the bright idea to put the message that the Flames game can be seen on another channel right overtop the score/outs/count for the last inning. Hope they get their crap together, same as the Jays.

Short version.
- Jays hire Farrell as manager in 2011 to a 3 year contract, giving him his first ever managerial job. But immediately he has his eye on if the Red Sox job opens up or not.
- After 2011 Francona gets fired, Farrell (after a luckluster first season) goes immediately to AA and says he wants to be traded to Boston. AA refuses.
- During 2012 Farrell doesn't manage at all and just sulks. Pitchers hurt, who cares, players strikeout, misfield and run the bases wrong, who cares. Escobar puts crap on his eye-black, who cares.
- Valentine gets fired and again Farrell (after a terrible season of not managing at all) immediately demands to be traded to Boston. AA finally sees his mistake of hiring this fool and trades him.

Reyes has looked pretty solid so far. Always seems to be smiling and enjoying himself whenever he makes a play.

Happ is dialed in right now. 3 batters, 3k's in the 4th. Looks great out there.

Hey Lind... Welcome to the party pal
And JP jumps ship again. For some of his defensive liabilities he sure can swing it.

That swing by JPA was smooth.
Rasmus swing is ugly right now.

Yeah, Colby is swinging like a guy with no confidence. He'll be ok, but he's had some poor at bats so far this season.

That really sucks for Lackey, hopefully it's not as bad as it looks.

Yikes, Lackey was in a bunch of pain after that pitch. Hope he's okay, but don't have a good feeling after seeing that.

That was tough to watch. First game back after Tommy John, feel bad for the guy.

Sucks to see Lackey leave the game like that. He was pitching well, and I was really pulling for him this year.
