Wasting a couple hours of my valuable sleep, the Jays lost in four more innings than required tonight to apparent asshole Joey Cora and the equally assholish BASTAHN Red Sox.
Vlad went Yatzhee, which was sweet. And he made some plays defensively, which was cool too. And, let's get Rowdy again!
But other than that, another Jays loss (and Kawhi stays), so fuck it, here's two takes:
1) Siddall arguing with himself post-game about whether Montoyo should have put Urena in to run for Smoak in the 10th about sums it up. He should have! But he has no one else on the bench! Roster construction! Yeah, this team is royally fucked. And fuck the Royals.
2) Fuck Alex Cora.
Marcus Stroman has a personality and also, is a fucking fantastic pitcher. He deals with a TON of criticism, some somewhat justified (ehhhh) and some absolutely not. And, chalking one up in the "absolutely not" column today was fucking Joey Cora. Joey is mad at this. "It's the same thing with him everyday...people don't like it."
Hey fuck you Cora. Again, he is mad at this. This. Are you fucking kidding me. If you dropped an alien from Pluto-6 into an NBA season in the '90s, he'd be able to say, without ever seeing the sport, that Michael Jordan is the best player (Kawhi stays). If you dropped him into this clip, it'd have no idea what is wrong and probe Brock Holt.
The only people that should get insulted by any of this is a) Goose Gossage, b) the actor that plays Sid Seixeiro, and c) people who nod approvingly to Steve Simmons columns. (Although I'd hate to ask Randal Grichuk how he feels about this). Nice job cementing yourself in that group of immortals, early 2000s Darwin Barney.
Toronto is 6-19 against Boston in the last 25. They play in a couple of hours to wrap up the series. I will not be watching because I work. Thank fuck.
P.S. CLAYTON RICHARD STARTS!!! "Who's leaving?" in his return, asks Charlie, in the world's most who-gives-a-fuck cliffhanger. (Kawhi? Cause he stays) Oh I don't know, DFA half of them.
