An we go quietly into the night

He's not awful. Just average.

A little better. Bautista hits even good lefties.

[schittenden]

If only Duquette and Showalter were as wise as you, Birdland.

If they were, they would have cut their losses with this dead weight pitcher a long time ago.

Careful. He'll think you mean it.

People got to high on Chen with his 2 starts vs M's. He's a awful pitcher.

4 strikeouts in 2 innings. Isn't that what you've been clamoring for all season? The Jays have hit one ball hard and it left the yard. It was also their only fly ball that wasn't an infield fly or blooper. Ever pitcher would put up awful stats if teams had an .833 BABIP against them. Chen's gotten 6 outs. An foul pop up, a soft ground ball, and 4 strikeouts. The Jays have a horse shoe shoved in them somewhere it happens. They're 5-6 in BABIP and the O's are 0-5. The Jays have gotten as lucky as you can get offensively and defensively. That's not Chen's fault. They can still win this one. And Chen is still a good pitcher.

Nick is pissed about that one.

Sometimes I just ignore him and his preposterous assertions.

But, he's like a mosquito that keeps coming back.

You just instinctively smack at it sometimes.

[callahan09]

Not a great start. Hopefully we can turn this game around!

[joedogg9999]

Id really like to take this game. Thier starter tomorrow has a 1.12 era over his last 3 starts

If he wasn't such an excellent twitter aggregator, I'd have set him to ignore.

That is an apt description. Kudos.

[TouchemAll]

Kakes NOT HAPPY I never SEE him argue strikes!!

O'Nora is not good at his job.

I was going to look at his game log on baseball-reference.com to prove you wrong, but, now I'm inclined to agree with you.

I am totally dumbfounded that he's got as much rep as he does. I wish monkey list still worked, because I see his goofy posts even though he's on ignore because people love to quote the troll. He's allowed to troll because he's an O's fan, though.

[Reboulet'sStache]

Just a bad match up. Not good fastball command. Too many good righties in the lineup.

Living in the middle of the plate, it wouldn't matter who he faced.
