Didn't see the HR live. Just had to rewind the broadcast to hear the depressed call from the annoying Seattle announcers. They sounded so sad. It was lovely

At least they said a few things during the HR trot, like how it was his 28th HR

Some announcers (Phillies, Cardinals, Indians) get so rattled that they just sit there in silence. Dead air for over 30 seconds lol

It’s the first half and more specifically a putrid effort from our bullpen…remember Dolis, Chatwood, Thornton I etc. They lost too many games for us when we had the lead.

I blame that horrible August. The bullpen was crap, sure, but that kind of was expected after half the bullpen got injured. But in August the offense got cold and they lost a fair share of games to horrible teams when the pitching was stellar. If the offense was close to at least average, there's a few more games right there. The bullpen? Downright unpredictable. The offense? Should have been better.

Reposting here. Hopefully Seattle loses tonight to make it simpler

Scenarios

1. Jays lose tomorrow they're out

2. Boston and New York win Toronto is out

3. Jays win Boston loses, New York wins, Seattle loses 1 more game. Jays/Boston tiebreaker in Boston, winner goes to New York for the WC game

4. Jays win, Boston wins, New York loses, Seattle loses 1 more game. Jays/Yankees tiebreaker in Toronto, winner goes to Boston for the WC game

5. Jays win, Boston loses, New York wins, Seattle wins both games. 3 way tie for 1 spot. Jays have worst draft position so likely have to win 2 games, the first on the road(likely in Seattle if Boston chooses correctly) and then the 2nd at home(against Boston)

6. Jays win, Boston wins, New York loses, Seattle wins both games. 3 way tie for 1 spot. Jays have best draft position so likely have to win 1 road game against the winner of SEA@NYY.

7. Jays win, Boston loses, New York loses, Seattle loses 1 game. 3 way tie for 2 spots. Boston picks first and will certainly pick playing game 1 at home. Jays Can either choose to play Boston on the road to get in, and if they lose they'd get a 2nd chance to get in playing New York on the road. Or they could choose to face the loser of Boston/New York at home but only have 1 chance.

8. Jays win, Boston loses, New York loses, Seattle wins both games. 4 way tie for 2 spots. I'm not sure who we'd face but it's a single elimination game and since we have the 2nd selection, it would almost certainly be at home.

1. Thanks for summarizing. Lotta work appreciated.
2. How crazy is this? So bonkers.
3. This is exactly what makes baseball and the 160+ game season so awesome. A couple of inches a couple of times over all that time, and everything is drastically different. Love it.

Bring on today….sending good vibes to Mr. Ryu, that he be crisp and sharp, and that the bats be booming.
