Welcome Me Back To Town: Jays 6, Baltimore 5

PrintThe Jays pulled out their second straight come-from-behind victory today to win their home series against Baltimore.
On the Mound:
Of course, the big story was Dustin McGowan's return to a big league starting rotation. McGowan started for the first time in over three years in the majors and, as you'd expect, is still getting back into the swing of things. McGowan made it through three innings (he started the fourth but didn't record an out) and did a good job preventing hitters from hitting the ball hard. However, he had trouble locating his fastball and barely used his curveball or changeup. On the plus side, McGowan did throw a couple of sliders for strikes and his fastball was in the mid 90s for most of his appearance. On the minus side, he was leaving pitches up and walked five in three innings. McGowan showed flashes of the old Dustin in the third inning when he quickly recorded three straight groundouts. At this stage, it's all about how his arm feels and gradually his feel for his pitches will come back.
At the Plate:
Some of the younger Jays are really showing well. The Jays had some trouble against Baltimore starter Tommy Hunter for most of the game but they scratched across a few runs early and when they did get to Hunter, they got to him all the way. Eric Thames had a couple of hits on some good at-bats. David Cooper started the Jays' game-winning rally in the 7th with a home run and two batters later, Adam Loewen added a homer of his own to tie things up. Loewen also had another good hit, while Cooper also worked a walk late in the game. On the veteran side, Adam Lind had an RBI single and Jose Bautista drove in a couple with a hit and a sac fly. Mike McCoy leading off also worked out, as he scored three runs and was adequate at short.
From the Pen:
With McGowan only going three innings, it was a busy day for the pen, and there was good and bad. Carlos Villanueva wasn't charged with any runs, but he let a couple of McGowan's runners score and 3 hits and a walk over 2 innings isn't very impressive, though he was keeping the ball down. Shawn Camp wasn't great either, allowing a run in his inning amidst a couple of walks and a hit. Things got much better in the late innings with Joel Carreno pitching a clean 7th to pick up the win when the Jays rallied in the bottom of the frame. Casey Janssen came in for the "hold" in the 8th to protect the one-run lead and was terrific, dusting the Orioles with three quick easy groundouts and using just 8 pitches to do it. Frank Francisco allowed a walk in the 9th to make things interesting, but managed to hold the line for the save.
In the Field:
Adam Loewen started in centre and although I didn't get to see the game (thanks, dumb mlb blackout rules), he seemed fine. Loewen was replaced by DeWayne Wise late in the game for defense.
I am just hoping that the performance of guys like Cooper and Loewen hopefully buys them some playing time as we go down the stretch. It's not a huge deal, and Farrell is doing a good job working a lot of players in, but I don't see the logic behind giving Mark Teahen at-bats over the younger players.
Jays of the Day: Francisco, Janssen, Loewen, McCoy, Cooper, Thames, and a very honourable mention to Dustin McGowan!

for something ridiculous like 5.5M
Do you have a young, talented cost controlled player having a down year who's "attitude" has cased problems with an aging player or manager?
Don't worry, I Alex Anthopoulos will take him off your hands, I'll even give you some moderately useful veterans that will "help you make a playoff run".
Can't they release him?
I think letting him finish the season was nice enough.
AA had to take on his contract in order to push through the Rasmus trade. However, at this point, it’s a sunk cost, so I sincerely hope that AA simply releases him and eats the $ (a la BJ Ryan). There is absolutely no point in Teahen’s staying on the bench, and taking up the place of a better player.
Loewen is out of options
Teahen should be released and Loewen take his roster spot next year
yeah he couldn’t really be much worse. :P

Are we hoping that he'll stay with the team?
What’s the general consensus on FF now? I know a lot of people were down on him earlier in the season (myself included), but it seems like he’s come around lately and has been doing quite well. I no longer feel like I need to breathe into a paper bag when he comes out of the bullpen. I wouldn’t mind seeing him here again next season.
The man in the white shirt.
it's a win/slightly-less-win
if he leaves, we can get a cheaper reliever plus a comp pick.
if he stays, we get a good reliever at a fairly high (but not unreasonable) price, and the chance at another comp pick depending on how FA compensation works under the next CBA

I was gonna scroll through the GDT but I got lazy a quarter of the way.
I got to listen to the radio a bit while shopping, but I missed most of the game. :(
I’m just glad Dusin is starting and feeling alright.
Was stuck shopping... absolutely no food in the house
Heard much of the game on the radio as I was driving around picking up stuff.
Have to agree with that the numbers don’t really matter with Dustin. It’s all about staying healthy.
It would be good to get a good 5th starter option in 2012.

I attended the game, and nearly roasted in the sun.
I had seats on the third base line at field level, near the C’s dugout. Not the best spot because the outfielders are difficult to see. Lots of hot (in both senses of the word) women at the game, dressed in halter tops and tight shorts. I assume there were other men there also.
The most impressive player was starting pitcher Jesse Hernandez. He gave up just one run in six innings and was constantly throwing strikes. Also good were 1B Kevin Patterson (single, double, walk, RBI); Venezuelan DH Balbino Fuenmayor (gotta love that name), with a single, triple, walk and 2 RBI; and 19 year-old SS Shane Opitz (triple, two singles, SB, and RBI). Defensively everyone was fine. I was hoping to see Canadian relievers Brandon Kaye of the C’s or Jeremiah Sammy of the Dust Devils, but no such luck.

Because 9/11 is more worthy than pretty much anything else you could possibly think of, as well as being relevant to the Mets because the event took place in their city.

Well, you see that's where we disagree
9/11 was a horrible tragedy. There have been many, many, many horrific tragedies in the world. And, going only by death tolls, some have been much more horrific than 9/11.
9/11 is not a more worthy cause than pretty muchanything else, and imo, it is quite self-centred to think so.
It is the most horrific tragedy for the city of New York, though.

This just happens to pertain to the Mets.
But any other team or individual could request to wear special hats so they have to be consistent with their decisions.
If you’re going to allow a hat relating to an event, you have to allow hats relating to all events. How is it fair if MLB decides that 9/11 is the only tragedy that is horrific enough for a hat?
It's fair if it's a correct decision.
Seriously, name a more momentous event to occur in the US in the last twenty years.

just let them wear the hats, to honour the memory of police and firefighters who gave their lives that day.

Who decided that 9/11 transcends fairness?
What if a player wanted to wear a bracelet or a hat that commemorated the attacks on Gaza? What if they thought that was more ‘important’ than 9/11? How is it fair if they say they aren’t allowed to commemorate that if they let the Mets wear their hats?
If the rules are that you aren’t allowed to wear hats for specific causes than I don’t think there should be exceptions.
My whole point
was that the MLB is being dumb. What you’re saying is absolutely right, they should allow stuff like this for everything.
However, I think that today they should have just allowed them to wear the hats seeing that a) it’s the tenth anniversary, a milestone, and b) it’s the Mets, who play in New York City, where the event occurred.

Arghhhh I need to sleep.
I don't think it is so much just the attacks
I think you make some very good points, but maybe are missing the fact that baseball was a huge deal in new york after 9/11. It’s very difficult to overstate how important it was, even though it seems sort of silly looking back. I was there and even though it’s only baseball, people really looked to it for a return to normalcy and to experience community and shared experience in New York.

I wonder how much Rasmus wants to celebrate
After going 0 for 7 in his 2 rehab games
Anybody watching the Cubs/Mets?
Geez I wish they would focus more on the game and less on 9/11… Not that I really about the Cubs/Mets but still, it is a BASEBALL game after all.

what he don’t know, is how hardd it is; to make it look so e.a.s.y
