Giving him the Travis Snider treatment, nice. What's the corresponding move?

A question needs to be asked, why aren't we developing pitchers? Most are FA signings and left overs

We are, they just take a lot longer to get there.

I don't love that we're paying Roark 12 million to play for the Braves.

Funny you should mention him. I don't know why but I wanted to see what he was up to earlier today. Braves

Toronto Blue Jays recalled RHP Jeremy Beasley from Buffalo Bisons.

Never was a fan of Snider. Wanted him traded.

I was a bit sus on him as a prospect given lack of defense and what I felt were inflated stats in the PCL.

I mean I didnt expectanagement to trade him or anything given he was a top 10 prospect back to back years, but I wasnt hot on him.

Speaking of former Blue Jays prospects, Barreto with TJ. Too bad it didnt work out for him.

Crazy that he’s still only 25 years old.

What a break. No reason why they didnt go to 1st base there.

Now Freeman with another defensive blunder. He should have thrown to home. Would have been an easy out.

Grich can open this game up. Hitting over 400 with RISP.

Should be able to win this game now pretty easy. Our pen will shut them down.

More like the Roy Halladay treatment. He needs to go there clear his head, shake the rust off and just pitch without consequence of needing a W.

Great game vs the Braves, Vladdy was on fire.
