Never understand the arguement "hopefully xxx loses so we don't lose any ground." We blew numerous chances against teams we should easily beat, to pull ahead. Sure we may not lose ground, but playing terrible like this can come back to haunt us when we lose the division or WC by a game.

 

Exactly, the "ground not lost" is a game we should have easily put between us and those other teams.

Ok, so the alternative is hoping Boston wins so we lose first place. You know what my stance is.

Well adversity check time. We will see in the Red Sox series how they handle it. How will they respond?

 

I can't imagine much good at this point considering the Sox are a far better team than the ones they just s*** the bed against.

jays offense has simply shut down... needs a kick start.

It's a s***** argument, but after a loss, what else is there to hope for?

The thing that is giving me confidence is that they took 2 out of 3 from the Orioles in a big series and we werent playing great before that series.

I am trying to find some hope.

Yankees are 21-13 since the trades.. and they've done damage to not just the Jays, but the Red Sox, Royals, Indians and Mariners. And they took 2/3 from the O's at home recently.. and they have a good shot to not only fatten up with so many Rays games, but they could be a serious threat to the Red Sox's division, wild card and playoff hopes.

Upton is better than Pompey and Carerra

 

Probably. My point is I'd rather not see any of them in the lineup... But if you have to give Saunders or Bautista a day off from the field there might be better options depending on who the starting pitchers going to be.

You're right I should have worded it better. Of course we hope for a loss, I guess a better quote would have been "It's not that big of a deal we lost, xxxx lost too so we didn't lose any ground!"

The offence was firing on all cylinders in the series before that and then they made three consecutive shitballers look better than they are for the Orioles. They're lucky they won that series.

Yanks chance of division is like 1% lol.

 

At this point, they're a serious threat.. 7 games left vs. Boston and 7 to fatten up on the Rays. Only real danger is a 3 game set with the Dodgers..

Silver Lining = Yankees playing with confidence hopefully give Bosox a hard time next week.

If we continue with the current offense, I could see us finishing 4th in the division.

Yeah the Twins are such a hard team to beat. Great accomplishment. They were down pretty big in 2 of the games before turning it on. We didnt play great in that series despite sweeping them. Than we faces the Orioles and took the series. We werent playing good overall yet won a big series.

Thats the hope I have for the Red Sox series.

Pompey can be used as a lefty so I could see him being inserted out of desperation but I don't love it by any stretch. I think whatever fairy dust the Jays were going to get out of Zeke this year is pretty much used up. Lately he's been looking a lot like the player we hated so much last year.
