Didn't get a chance to see the game, how did Marner look?
- Rang

Similar. Developed a new pimple on his right cheek

The bullpen is getting tired. The kids have never played this much and players on other teams know their stuff.
Its bound to happen.
Jays are in tough in the playoffs....pitching outduels hitting all the time.

Winning the division and missing the wild card game helps set up the rotation so that you get two starts from Price with Stroman, Richardey and potentially Estrada rounding things out. Gibbons didn't have Cecil available last night and went with the "B" bullpen guys. I think he's happy if they get two out of three in this series.

One moment time out from the hate to remember Yogi though.

Yes RIP Yogi

Players long before my time are cool.
I met Mickey Mantle and have an auto Pic from him.

Current Yankees can (frank) off

Yogi took the fork in the road.

Agreed on these current bums.

Ive really enjoyed watching Timashov and Soshnikov.

Yeah I like Timashov. OMG. Plan the parade Walshy

Zach Hyman sucks

Yes he does especially for a guy who fussed over where he would play his career in the AHL..

Well then I am glad the Jays have Price, Stroman and Richardey. Oh and Estrada has been pretty good too

Yes sir, I agree.
However, I think the starting three will be Price, Stroman, Estrada....then Richardey....if they get out of the first round.

Price sure.
The rest are all question marks.
Outside of Price.....its not exactly a scary group of pitchers.

Apply that same comment to every AL team that makes the playoffs

It not like every other team has 4 David prices

Huge win, guys!

IT'S ALL ABOUT MOMENTUM GOING INTO THE POST-SEASON!

Zach Hyman sucks

He can keep Bailey company.

No wonder it looked like a decent game.

estrada is a lock. 13-8, 3.13ERA, 1.08WHIP. I'd have him in game 2 or 3

Price sure.

It's not like every team in the AL has something that's emphatically better.

He can keep Bailey company.

Ya, he blows too. 24 year old college guys with one good season to their name.

Zach Hyman sucks

might as well write him off after a couple preseason games!

Why wouldn't they get out of the first round? Is this that Toronto Skepticism kicking in? The Jays have boasted the highest run totals the entire season - and since the trade deadline, a top three ERA and top five WHIP. Donaldsons WAR is third in the league at 8.24 - that's outrageous. There are so many other reasons to believe in this team.

Edit: team obp @ .328 avg and slg @ .469 (!) avg

I know baseball is a long up and down season so this latest string of ineptitude by the Jays is probably no reason to panic.

What does concern me is that the Jays seem to be a prototypical "pile-on" team. They are great when they're already up by 5 runs, but when the game is tight they seem to struggle.

That, and of course the bullpen.

We could easily be in the wildcard instead of winning the division. Would it surprise anyone to see another Toronto team epicly collapse?
- Aetherial

would making the playoffs as a wildcard team be considered an epic collapse? they were under .500 after 100 games.

jays 8.5 up on the twins, 11 games left. 0 chance they dont make it
