Does not compute

So let me get this straight: the BlueJays can hit three batters (including one that was clearly intentional) and get off with a warning. Meanwhile the Angels can't even pitch inside without getting tossed. What a horrible display from homeplate umpire Jim Reynolds. Congratulations Jim, you win the "douche-bag of the day" award!

Lackey's pitch didn't even touch the hitter! "Here you go BlueJays, take a free base. And as a bonus were going to toss the pitcher and the manager. Would you like fries with that?"

On the other side, Justin Miller gets to throw right at one of our only two real hitters, and he gets a pat on the back.

This is beyond ridiculous. Jim Reynolds must be fined and suspended by MLB.

UPDATE: Jesus. Fucking. Christ. Good thing we get an extra day to stew on that one, right?

When (if?) we get Donnelly back, Ben Webber needs to be released. You know what, fuck it, he needs to be released right now. I have no idea what happened to this guy, but he's got nothing. He can't be trusted with any lead, much less a tied game. And with Ramon Ortiz recent resurgance and a ton of good arms in the minors there is no reason to keep this guy around.
