Blue Jays Discussion: post-deadline, back-at-home edition

[hoglund]

Orioles held the lead twice last night, Rays come back to win 10-6.

Mariners held the lead twice last night, Yankees come back to win in extras 3-2.

Athletics and Rangers go into the 11th tied 1-1, Athletics put up a 3 spot and win 4-1.

Nobody said it was going to be easy.

It's not like hockey, making the playoffs in baseball for most teams is once or twice every 10 years.

I am guessing that Saucedo goes down for Murphy. We shall see.

God the AL East is insane, right now Fangraphs projects the AL East to have four 90 win teams at the end of the season, no other division has more than two.

 

[weems]

With that win we're now at basically 50% to make the playoffs according to Fangraphs

Boston's odd's just falling off a cliff the past two weeks

That is crazy impressive

Well this is a new angle. Jesus

What’s truly crazy is we play within our division the most. Essentially al east kills the other divisions in more ways than one

Jays are at 59-49 now, +123 run differential (best in AL East by far), 9-1 in the last 10, and... 4th in the division.

Yikes just read the first part of the article.

Consequences actually need to happen to athletes.

Being 10 games over .500 and in 4th place in your division is hilarious.

 

[The Nemesis]

that's a soft bullshit excuse for not getting the call right.

Just realized Rowdy has been killing it in Milwaukee. Would suck if he turns into a beast somewhere else but I don't think it was ever going to happen for him here. I wish him well, except when he's facing us.

He needs regular playing time and I think he needs to be playing. Dh’ing isn’t for everyone. I’m sure he’ll be a good mlb’er. He wasn’t taking 1st from vlad
