Is anyone else going to struggle watching the playoffs this year? I'll likely watch... But it will be with a very heavy heart

 

f*** baseball right now.

Cheering for any NL team to beat AL in WS.

[bronson44]

Just shows how random baseball can be though. Cecil was an absolute world killer last year and this year he has probably cost us a playoff spot on his own. It's like every time he made a little mistake he would get destroyed.

 

So true. He has torpedoed us consistently

[BTS]

I know everyone's choked, but it's not over yet boys.

 

Even if we do lose tonight, we're still a half game up on Detroit while they have an extra game to play than us... Even if Detroit wins that last game of the season, it still means we're currently tied for a playoff spot.

 

I can't understand the attitude of "the seasons over". It's gonna be tough, but it aint over yet.

 

Playoff odds probably dropped by about 20% tonight. Season obviously isn't over, but today was very, very bad.

Ortiz shouldn't be put on a pedestal and given a free pass just because he's a big, happy go lucky guy. Eye test doesn't lie. He was basically done a few years ago, and now he's having an mvp season the year he's going to retire. He probably doesn't care about getting tested and failing since he's going to be out of baseball soon anyway, he has nothing to lose.

if he test positive then shame of him but throwing this comment without any proof is not fare for one of the best baseball players of all time

[vdubmvp]

Well, I did ban you from posting the league threads. And I'm pretty sure I challenged you to a fight one time.

 

I really have no good reason to post in those threads anyway. And you've challenged like half the board to a fight.

Of course I'll be sad if the Jays wind up wasting this season but to be honest they've been so inconsistent this year they don't really deserve a spot. I'll be happy if they can make it but I'll understand if they don't. That being said, go Cubs, Indians, Nationals and Dodgers if the Jays can't make it. Great stories with all those teams.

[Governator]

If I end up feeling this depressed all weekend I'll be in rough shape come Monday.

You're actually crazy.

[Omar]

Edwin 0 for 5. Failed his audition today for the Sox.

[TheGrandslamMan]

Rain could be a godsend, it looks like it's ratting Kimbrel

[Jonn]

Edwin 0 for 5. Failed his audition today for the Sox.

 

Or maybe the Sox already paid him

[Mkdaman1818]

Russell Martin dp upcoming

[fatcowxlive]

Ball 4!!!

 

Martin coming up, very SSS but he's 3/6 career against Kimbrle

[Jonn]

If I end up feeling this depressed all weekend I'll be in rough shape come Monday.

 

Don't kill yourself please you're loved. You're loved.

[fatcowxlive]

Lol

 

Come inn Tulo

[Jonn]

Bautista probably should have already been at second

[Floortom]

Man Martin stinks. How is he hitting in the 5 spot??

[Jonn]

Colorado Tulo one time!

[jays4life19]

Tulo is obviously going to hit a dinger here.

[STLJaysFan]

Has Ortiz been tested this year? The league probably told him before the season that they'll look the other way since it's his last year and it would look bad on baseball if it comes out that the guy who's making a big egotistical retirement spectacle is on steroids. If Jose Canseco announced he was going to retire at the end of the year, he would have been tested 10 times during his final year just because he's "unlikable".

[Grant77]

Tulo bomb come on.

[Stangstag]

Man Martin stinks. How is he hitting in the 5 spot??

 

Dumn manager

[Candy Maldonado]

Buck with the jinx

[BTS]

3-0 Mariners

[vdubmvp]

Systematic bias towards rich teams and popular players is nothing new in MLB. Get used to it unless you want to be constantly angry.

[Jonn]

Gibbons should probably just resign tonight.

[havok24]

3-0 Mariners

 

Only the great prophet Shea can save us now.

[thatoneguy]

3-0 Mariners

 

Dude, we get it.
