How concerned should we be?

[BigCecil]

R.A. is an amazing interview, every f***ing time.

 

He really is. Don't like the KB but I like the man. Its not his fault he was dealt for Noah and Travis....but he will always pay a certain price for it.

 

2.1 WAR for $12mm this year.

[dineke]

plz just take 2/3 at home, then go into KC with Price/Stroman for a couple of must win games.

 

All 3 at home would be optimal but I don't want to be too greedy.

[Olerud363]

From a team that's won 3 or more games in a row 12 times?

 

Edit: Don't respond please, I've read your posts. Thx.

 

The chances of Jays winning 3 in a row against KC are about 1/8. Chances of them winning 3 in a row against an average team are a little higher.

 

The Jays had 67 chances to start a 3 game winning streak and did it 12 times. That sounds about right.

[JaysAllMighty]

It's time to kick ass and chew bubble gum.

[Olerud363]

ummm I don't know. I wonder if they are just blowing smoke. If he really couldn't throw his slider, but was available to throw other pitches wouldn't they want to keep that quiet?? Just so KC still is thinking about the slider.

[havok] Just f***ing win please. [/havok]

Fangraphs has our odds of advancing in this series as 20%. Down 2-0 to the Rangers they pegged us with a 17.5% chance of advancing I believe.

[JaysAllMighty]

We're gonna beat them so bad, they won't even know what hit them!

Go lie down olerud, you might hurt yourself.

[Travis_Snider]

[Frenchsoup]

Let's do this boys!Starts tonight!

[candymartinez]

I don't know why I listen to the Fan590. Stupid talk really bothers me but I still listen. Somehow I still think there might be something worth listening to.

 

The pre-game show is ridiculous. "Volquez was absolutely outstanding" "I believe they have to get to Cueto" and so on.

[jays_fever]

Volquez was outstanding, Price is a giant choker.

 

Baseball "fans"

[fatcowxlive]

Huh Cueto with KC this season has a FIP of 4 and his K/9 dropped to around 6... obviously SSS but I thought he was dominant with the Royals

No he's blown chunks since coming over.

[thatoneguy]

Hopefully the Stroshow has curtains up and no intermission today.

[fatcowxlive]

No he's blown chunks since coming over.

 

No idea why I thought he did well there lol

 

On another note what's up with Osuna? I read somewhere that he's not going to throw the slider because of a finger issue?

[comeon sense]

Baseball gods be with us.

GO JAYS GO !

Who needs to steal signs if we are telling the Royals what our closer can't throw. Even if this was the case we wouldn't say unless they are trying to sandbag.

[BigBounceyBlueBalls]

Cecil could be good to go if we advance to the World Series! Wtf and Wow!!!

 

Go Jays Go !!!

[nextyear]

The Blue Jays chances of winning the ALCS go way up if they win tonight.

[BigBounceyBlueBalls]

3 nothing liberals !!! Lol

Word I glanced at my phone and saw it and I was like "why announce it" no need to publicize it now that eliminates a pitch that they're looking for

[fatcowxlive]

Tabler is actually saying truth here, why are they so focused at that misplay, Price gave up 5 ER in that inning and couldn't finish the inning.

[thatoneguy]

The Blue Jays chances of winning the ALCS go way up if they win tonight.

 

To sound like as much of a dick as possible...the relative chances of winning any series go way up with any win.

[Soft Hands]

Let's go Jays!!!! Just win tonight and we're back in it.

 

Happy birthday Jose Bautista. Hopefully we get a birthday bomb from him today.

Thank you for that useful piece of information. I am not sure if you are calling me a dick or yourself for pointing it out, but who cares.

 

Like everyone else, I am just pointing out the obvious while waiting for the game to start.

[fatcowxlive]

Haha Drew Butera plays for the Royals

[BigCecil]

Gibby takes a lot of heat for sticking with things that don't always make sense (Sanchez when you need a K...Carerra etc).

 

But sticking with Cola against RHP has been paying off and his D hasn't hurt us so far. Got to give him some credit for that.
