[al secord]

Putrid, shaner, putrid.

Jays would have won if they could hit good pitching

 

[mikeyz]

Save situations are based on when the pitcher came in, so the extra runs don't impact it.

Yup. It still counts as a save

 

[TheBeastCoast]

Going 1-1 in back to back Cole-Glasnow starts is big.

 

[EpochLink]

6 games left, how much to clinch?

 

[Seath The Scaleless]

Huge win against a tough pitcher

Next two matchups are a bit lopsided in our favour. Sweep em!

8 games left. 4 wins should clinch

 

[MK78]

Rangers creaming the Mariners 8-0, i guess we are cheering the Rangers to sweep this series eh?

 

[Da Cool Rula]

I miss Shaner

Texas 8 Seattle 0

Royals 4
Astros 2

 

[EpochLink]

Vintage Mariners baseball on display tonight.

Also, Kansas City up in Houston.

 

[canucksfan]

Hilarious Saucedo and Thornton are pitching for the M's.

Nice win. Looked terrible for the first 5 innings offensively, Glasnow looked unhittable. But a few quirks in the 6th rattled him up and that was all that was needed.

I thought they started to look ok in the 4th and 5th with some solid contact despite not much to show for it.

Those were some fantastic at bats in the 6th, though. It's easy to look at a bunch of walks and think they were gifted some runs, but Glasnow wasn't completely wild... he was mostly around the plate and they just wouldn't bite unless it was in the zone. Such a fun inning to watch.

 

[canucksfan]

7-2 Royals now

Putrid, shaner, putrid.

He'll see this post when the Jays lose next and he comes back.

 

[Eyedea]

Why was there so much chatter about how the Jays are bad vs teams over .500 when Hou/Sea/Tex suck too?

 

[Halladay]

Think the Jays need 89 wins, so 3 more wins should do it.

Ideally 1 team crushes the other in the 7 games by winning at least 5 and hopefully more. Doesn’t really matter which.

Side bonus: if Houston doesn't come back against KC tonight, the winner of the Seattle/Texas game will leapfrog them into the division lead. Houston is the only one the Jays have the tie breaker against, so them being in the Wild Card battle is ideal.

I wasn't a huge fan of the Bassitt signing, but I was definitely wrong. He's been fantastic in year one.

Fun fact: Bassitt is the only pitcher with 30 wins over the last two seasons.

Yeah I wasn’t a fan but with the Manoah fiasco Bassitt has turned out to be integral to the rotation.

I’m impressed boys. I’m impressed. Huge win.

I’m almost more worried about finishing as the 2nd wildcard than I am missing the playoffs at this point.
Obviously missing the playoffs would be the worse option but the cards are really stacked in our favour with how many time the AL east teams have to play each other. And the Twins are a much much easier match up in a 3 game series than the Ray will be

Come on really. There has to be someone you want to call fat or a POS?

No McClanahan is huge, though. Makes a big difference

At this point, it makes no sense to "pick a team". Last year we all wanted them to play the Mariners over the Rays. Look how that ended up...

Or like the Leafs last year in the playoffs, when Florida knocked out Boston, when the fans were chanting "We want Florida".

Just get your wins, and focus on playing the team you're gonna play.

Magic number is 4?

Yeah, I really don't care where they end up. Just get in.
