Gibbons is a clown. This isn't a little slump, Tulo has been awful since he joined the Jays. I never predicted it would last this long though. I took him real early in my fantasy baseball draft.

No, that would be the fact that basketball players can foul out in overtime with six fouls.

Gibbons usually manages to the save, but I don't think he did last night. Gave Happ a little rope in the 9th trying to get him the CGSO. Once two got on, he decided it was time to pull the plug. It might have been one batter too early, but hard to say he mismanaged that situation by only putting Osuna in for the save.

Also - afternoon baseball! Can't wait.

glad the jays won the first two, always pencilled in this one during the day against Bumgarner as a loss.

Bases left loaded, pretty bad swing by Martin there.

Bugs me to see Baumgardner get a couple brutal calls go for him against EE just because he whined the batter before. I don't care if he's an ace, if they're balls, they're balls. The ump shouldn't bow down to him.

If Tulo is hitting below the mendoza line, he has to play better defense than he is.

At least they are pushing up the pitch count here - maybe can get into the bullpen early because they are not hitting much off Madison here.
