2012 Toronto Blue Jays Thread

Bautista's 22nd puts him in 2nd overall for HR, 1 behind Dunn (this is assuming none of the players around him have HR'd, I haven't checked).

Glad the man in white made the trip with the team.

 

[maplesyrup]

Haha. I quit and went to bed. Nice surprise this morning.

With today's win, the Jays will be at least .500 in interleague play for the first time since 2007.

Also good to see Bautista's pretty much rebounded from a slow start and Colby's almost playing like the player we were all hoping he'd be. As for Encarnacion, I have just one thing to say: ROIDS!!

The past month Rasmus has been playing better than expectations should have been, IMO.

Lind back up, Francisco activate. McCoy and Cooper down.

Lind put up excellent numbers while he was with the 51s. Let's hope it'll translate to the bigs.

I hope the Jays let Lind focus on being a DH for the rest of this season.  EE is filling in relatively well at 1B and hitting like a mad man, so leave that the way it is.

I met Cito Gaston on the weekend.

So, now Alvarez might be hurt? Awesome. He's staying in the game for now, but, it didn't look good. Welcome to Toronto, Jamie Moyer?

Missed call at 2nd base and two boots by that scrub Johnson have the Jays barely escaping the inning with a 5-4 lead

Not a good sign. Alvarez leaves in 6th w/ #bluejays' trainer George Poulis. If he's hurt, that would make it 4 starters down in 2 weeks.

Unreal.

12 HR in June for Bautista.

Now along atop the MLB homerun rankings.

How many starters do we need to lose before we're actually allowed a man in white?

 

[Kin]

In June:

Brett Lawrie: .881 OPS
Colby Rasmus: .971 OPS
Jose Bautista: 1.179 OPS
E5 : .946 OPS

Going to score a buttload of runs with production like that at the top of the order.

Encarnacion at .946 coming into tonight as well. The top of the Jays order is on quite the roll right now. They're just raking.

 

[#1PilarFan]

Yeah, but can they pitch?

 

[GhostofPotvin29]

Jays signed Moyer to a minor league deal.
