Notes:

 

MLB:

  • No Important Notes Today.

 

Jays:


  • Dickey takes the ball coming off his best outing of the year, yielding two runs and five hits over a season-best 8.1 innings in Sunday's 5-2 win over Oakland. He is 4-1 with a 2.52 ERA over his last six starts.
  • By wrapping up a third straight series sweep with a 3-2 victory over Tampa Bay on Wednesday, the Blue Jays pushed their win streak to nine. Their pitching staff owns a 3.00 ERA during the run, Jose Reyes is hitting .370 during an 11-game hitting streak and Edwin Encarnacion has 14 RBIs over his last 10 contests.
  • Encarnacion has already tied the team record for home runs in a single month and, with three days left in May, he is three home runs shy of Barry Bonds' record for May home runs.

 

Royals:

  • Shields has proven dominant in recent years against Toronto, going 6-1 over his last eight matchups with a 1.13 ERA - the lowest among pitchers with at least five starts against the Blue Jays since the start of 2011. He's also tossed two complete games in his last three at Rogers Centre.
  • Their 4-9 record since May 15 is baseball's second-worst. After scoring three runs or fewer in four straight, they're one loss away from matching a season-worst five-game skid. Eric Hosmer and Billy Butler are a combined 3 for 29 during the skid with one RBI.
  • Kansas City was 1 for 6 with runners in scoring position in Wednesday's 9-3 home loss to Houston. Brett Hayes' homer was just the team's third in 14 games, and the Royals' 21 are the fewest in baseball - 55 less than major league-leading Toronto.

even as horrible as he's pitching I can see a Tim Collins three inning save this series.

 

Just give me the game that you're prepared to streak and i'll get the front row tickets (you bring the trenchcoat)

In a game where the Jays never hit a home run we get a walk off bunt . How lucky can we get. Lucky enough to win a Hendricks start How about the luck streak continuing and we beat Shields.

go back to the original thread. I said around the Rogers Centre. You can sit 1st row...but you aren't getting to see me naked. You have to buy me a flight to Miami for that.

Did Hutch's WAR fall? I could have sworn it was at 1.4

 

He walked 4, struck out none and gave up like 3 HR in his last start. So yes.
