Jose Abreu Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 (edited) Buehrle is scheduled to pitch two innings tomorrow (to get to 200 on the season), and then retire. He will not be part of the Toronto Blue Jays playoff roster. source Edited October 4, 2015 by Jose Abreu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Real Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 what? how does that make sense? didn't watch buerhle this year at all, is he not one of their starters? is he hurt? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buehrle>Wood Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 Wow. Awesome career. Was he not expected to be on the Jays playoff roster? That's surprising to me but maybe I haven't been paying close enough attention. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quin Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 What the hell? Why not pitch in the postseason...? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jose Abreu Posted October 4, 2015 Author Share Posted October 4, 2015 If he's really not gonna be on the playoff roster, they might as well trade him to us and let him finish his career here... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

daggins Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 Guys, I think Mark's arm will probably fall off soon. Let the man retire. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was he not expected to be on the Jays playoff roster? That's surprising to me but maybe I haven't been paying close enough attention. That's what it sounds like. Here's this from the Blue Jays website: It's possible that when Buehrle was removed during the seventh inning, he was walking off the field for the final time of his career. Toronto has yet to announce its postseason roster, but it's believed the club will go with a starting rotation that includes David Price, Marcus Stroman, Marco Estrada and R.A. Dickey. That doesn't leave any room for Buehrle, but an alternative scenario could see him being moved to the bullpen. This sucks, would have been awesome to see him pitch during the postseason- I adopted the Jays as my playoff team partly mainly because of that, but if not, what an incredible career.

flavum Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 Well, this certainly changes my rooting interest for the postseason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The thought crossed my mind, but what if they needed him if a starter got hurt? Plus, he's still their teammate. I'm sure they'll do the ceremonial final contract stuff, and there will be a new statue going up next year. Man, I respect that guy. What a competitor, and just a normal dude.

Jose Abreu Posted October 4, 2015 Author Share Posted October 4, 2015 His career Sox ERA is 3.83... that's so much worse than I thought. 2006 is probably skewing that number though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The hitting environment was a little better early in his career too. 2001-2005, he was pretty awesome. And obviously still very good after that.

LittleHurt05 Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 Not a good look for Buehrle but that's been pretty common with him the past few years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jose Abreu Posted October 4, 2015 Author Share Posted October 4, 2015 Retire???....How about they sign him for another year with the Sox....other than Chris Sale...he is better than anything that we have now pitching wise!! Quintana and Rodon... so underrated, even by our own "fans" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
