    This is why i don't like Dusty. Let his son-in law Montero face the meat of the lineup of the Blue Jays in a blowout.

    Great job Martinez.

    Dusty, you gave it your best try to ruin Bielak's outing.

    Jesus Christ.

    Dusty just went old-school with Bielak:

    Don't care about your arm, don't care how tired you are, just keep throwing.

    Bielak was gassed and had no business out there vs Vlad (or the other 2 batters)

    ****ing Dusty idiocy.

    No Sorry's.
    He doesn't play for the Stros after all!
    Just looked like he suddenly dropped off.
    Thought maybe a injury or something.

    Dusty has been greedy as a motherf-er with our starters. Squeezing everything out of them he can.

    Nice work Martinez, didn't smudge Bielaks line more than he deserved.

    Bielak been lights out. Guy has really stepped up and made the most out of his opportunity.

    Totally agree.

    I just don't think TK and Blum are much of anything. They are the definition of Meh.

    He really hasn't with anybody except Bielak, with whom he does almost every start.

    His management of the others starters has been fine. It's like his old ass is incapable of understanding that Bielak is a 75-80 pitch starter.

    I don’t get all the b****ing about keeping Bielak in there, game is out of reach for the Blue Jays might as well get as many outs of possible out of him. We’re going to have a fresh pen tomorrow and the Jays are gonna struggle rest of the series.

    I think they’re in the top tier of teams, just enough homerism and not to obnoxious, at least for me

    Yes it's about time!

    When we get Buck on the Dusty is a Moron train, we are definitely getting somewhere.

    I pray to God we get rid of him after this season, even if we miraculously defend our title.

    There is risk there, one being injury and the other is momentum and our BP is fine

    So you don't understand the difference between a 6 IP 2 ER line vs a 6 2/3 5 ER line (thank God Martinez prevented it from happening)?

    It's all about his confidence moving forward. Why would you put him in that situation? 106 pitches, really?

    Quickly, tell me the last time Martinez pitched? I'll hang up and listen.

    Why are Blue Jays wasting so many arms. This is game 1 of 4.
