Inside info

 

LOL

[Governator]

The good news is Bautista has mashed Felix in the past so maybe this will light a fire under him. If you're in the HR contest, pick Bats today.

Inside info on Felix

 

LOL

Well it worked once with Saunders maybe with Smoak. Then better book Benoit in the 7th......

[Jonn]

Smoak has 5 at-bats off Felix with 3 walks.

Probably has more to do with Edwin playing 1st with the night game yesterday

[Waylanderz]

A win here would be really nice!

[Terminator]

Gibbons very concerned with the OF defense in Game 1 but completely throws those concerns out the window in Game 3.

Lets Go Blue Jays!!!!!!!!!!

A big finish from him would be awesome. Seems like we have been waiting for the "Mount Crushmore" Jose to show all season. He looked good last night. At this point I have more faith in Martin's bat than his.

 

Lets go Jays!!

Best Seattle pitcher I ever saw was Randy Johnson

What a f***ing beast.

[Sammy225]

There is a f*** of a lot of miles on that arm of Felix. He is not going to age a like any other pitcher because he has been throwing almost 200 innings since he was 20 years old. most don't do that till they are 24 25.

Who would have thought a month ago that we would be battling tooth and nail for a bloody wildcard spot. We really need to use this series as momentum for the final drive. go jays.

yep, it is that easy, and tastes even better than it looks. crisp that bacon, and warm *real* maple syrup for dipping it in. That says I.AM.CANADIAN more than anything. You can probably hear my arteries clogging from where you are.
