Anthony Gose gets his first major league start today, in the leadoff spot. But no pressure Anthony.

Today's Lineups:

Lineup

TORONTO BLUE JAYS NEW YORK YANKEES
Anthony Gose, RF Derek Jeter, DH
Brett Lawrie, 3B Nick Swisher, RF
Colby Rasmus, CF Mark Teixeira, 1B

Starting Pitchers:

W-L G GS CG SHO SV BS IP H R ER HR BB K ERA WHIP
2012 - Ricky Romero 8-5 20 19 0 0 0 0 116.1 110 70 65 16 60 82 5.03 1.46

W-L G GS CG SHO SV BS IP H R ER HR BB K ERA WHIP
2012 - Hiroki Kuroda 8-7 18 18 0 0 0 0 115.1 112 51 47 15 33 89 3.67 1.26

Ricky has had a couple of good starts in a row, unfortunately his team wasn't scored for him. Today's lineup doesn't inspire confidence either, but then we don't have Jayson Nix and Dewayne Wise in there. Be happy for small mercies. Lots of RH bats in the Yankees lineup, maybe they haven't heard that Ricky has a harder time with lefties.

Remember the rules:

No GIFs until the game is over.

Try not to act like a 4 year old.

Basically, if asked to stop something, just stop. Our members are great. I've rarely banned someone, other than spammers. My level of what gets a ban is governed by the fact that I have to be here, if someone makes me not want to be here, well, I'm the one with the ban button.

Go Jays Go. I really would like a win today.

The title comes from the Steve Earle song Conspiracy Theory. I thought it fit.
