Anyone 50$ bet that lawrie will get plunked at some point during tuesdays game?
I'd make that bet, but I don't gamble. Kid is too big and unpredictable. I feel that Alvarez should be getting more headlines than Lawrie after that game however.
Why? He was pretty much pitching to a shadow Joe Mauer's former self and whoever the Twins' AA team is. The Jays got COLBY ****ING RASMUS out of this deal, who cares?

September call-ups have arrived... among those reporting to the Blue Jays tonight is Adam Loewen, ex-Baltimore Orioles lottery pick SP turned OF, a.k.a. the next Rick Ankiel. Oh, and he's from Canada, too.
Dustin McGowan warming up in the pen for a little mop-up duty... get ready, the SportsNet collective circle jerk that's happened over the last two games for him is about to reach it's climax!
Anyone remember this game? The last one of the 2005 season... Jays were at home closing out the schedule against the Royals in a mean-nothing game... McGowan comes in during the 8th and strikes out four straight batters to finish it off. Massive standing ovation from the faithful left in the stands.
I remember thinking, holy crap, this guy is going to be a huge stud!
