I don't know if the team can afford to trade Lynn. Miller is starting to look like a major question mark rather than a solution, Kelly has always been a fringe starter, Garcia is straight ass and he's always hurt, and Marco Gonzales is still a year away.
You'd like to think that Rosenthal and Martinez could be solutions, but if they can't handle the pen, why should we trust in their ability to make it through a lineup three times?

We have several starters in the minor leagues that look like they can be #3 or #4 starters.

Why did the guy take off? Was it suppose to be a suicide squeeze and the batter missed the sign?

Cruz went on his own. If he waits another 10 feet. Then goes full speed he's safe. What happens if Davis just takes a swing and hits the catcher? The catcher shouldn't be in front like that.

Stroman isn't exactly a scrub spot starter, though, he's a top prospect pitching his 2nd MLB game. He shut down the Royals last weekend too (not that that's saying a whole lot, I suppose). If he turns out to be legit for the Jays, it could make a huge difference this year.

I read Showalter was the one who called for it. Seems like an odd time with Chris Davis up (especially considering Cruz isn't fast).

He "felt it". He doesn't have speed does he? He looked average at best in the clip.

No hitter through 5 2/3.

He's so frustrating. Looked like ass the last three starts and has thrown a gem today.

And as much as I love Yadi, I really think we need to throw Cruz out there a little more. A lot of pitchers seem to respond positively to him behind the plate.
