Toronto Blue Jays

It's crazy to think if they had McClanahan and Franco we'd prolly be thinking about playing Baltimore. They are only 2.5games behind the Orioles.

Speaking of the Orioles. If they end up winning the division, they will have the same amount of divisional wins as the Yankees over the last 10yrs (2). And in those 10yrs, Baltimore has 3 100L seasons, and are 700-813 over the 1,513 games played (75-87 avg record over the last 10 seasons). Yankees are 853-660 over the same period (91-71 avg record over the last 10 seasons)

The never ending terror that is the AL East. And while Baltimore is just going to get better, I'm sure Boston is only a year or two away from another resurgence.

There's some offense! Magic number down to 2!!

I can not stand umps. Omg, they have been awful the last couple of weeks. It's like the bad umps are trying to get their last shred of limelight before they aren't allowed to ump playoff games.

That Angel Hernandez BS with the Phillies was embarrassing. Like...omg Angel. For him to even double down and say "check the replay and you'll see I'm right" was the epitome of what is wrong with him.

I missed what happened with the Phillies... do you know what series it was? So I can find it... this sounds interesting!

It's a joke he has a job in the Majors.

Angel Hernandez is the worst!
However, the kid getting an autographed Bryce Harper helmet is pretty awesome!

more importantly: Jays magic number is 2, Rays have nothing to play for, hopefully they get it wrapped up tonight!

That helmet has a very solid "certificate" of authenticity. Here's the MLB broadcast, here's security taking away to get it autographed, here's them bringing it back, here's the various local news stories, etc.

Hernandez is utterly terrible.


In Jays news, magic number is now 1, and they (and Texas) can clinch with a Texas win.

Wooooohooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo oo

[hockeyrobot]

Not sure on who the Jays will start today. Obviously Gausman is held for Game 1 now. Maybe Bowden Francis...?

There's a lot of scenarios for Sunday, but I do know if Toronto, Texas and Houston end up with 90 wins, the Jays will be 6th....

Slid in the back door. We'll take it.

Alright, time to hop on the bandwagon. Seems like this season's been a rollercoaster of frustration.

Post season Schedule:
Tuesday October 3 @ 4:38pm
Wednesday October 4 @ 4:38pm
Thursday October 5 @ 4:38pm * if necessary.


Is Jordan Hicks the closer moving forward?

[Axeman33]

I don't think it matters who they ended playing, they usually beat themselves more than they lose to the opposition.

Exciting!!

Afternoon baseball in the boardroom at the office!
