in his post game interview he said that the Jays were getting tipped about his pitches because of the hard swings they took on a lot of his off speed pitches.

Can't wait until the next home game where everyone wears white again.

Yeah, Lawrie totally drove an outside fastball 20 ft over the wall because the man in white told him to drive an outside fastball. Rasmus totally went down and golfed a good breaking ball because he was told to do so. It has nothing to do with the fact that the team swings like that on every goddamned pitch, and occasionally it results in them beating the **** out of otherwise solid offerings.

That's what I find ridiculous about the notion. Know what would happen if there was a psychic man who could tell the hitters the pitch type/location? Davis slashes at that pitch and tries to get a single, Lawrie does likewise with the outside fastball, and Rasmus lays off it entirely. No one in their right mind tries to hit a home run with any of those three pitches, if they know what is coming.

He is just looking for an excuse.

I bet Hammel thinks the NBA lottery is rigged too.

There isn't a single crazy belief that does not have some adherents.

Actually I heard the Blue Jays are Anonymous' favourite MLB team and its Anonymous that is supporting the man in white.
. Something about an algorithm and they're suprised noone has found the other spies....

How much is Tom Wolfe getting paid for all this?

Twenty yards of high-quality linen, and the right to use a heavily-fictionalized version of Anthopolous in his next work.

Tom Wolfe and Jason Hammel must be related. Blood brothers?

A rather ridiculous excuse, but it's good to know that some opposing pitchers have the man in white thing in their mind when they enter the dome. Any possible mental distraction like that is beneficial.

Seven of nine hits were off of fastball. I can't wait for that joke of a team to sink titanic style.
