GDT - Wild Card Game - Baltimore vs Toronto - 12 WINS TO GO!

[FrozenRopes]

For the Blue Jays

 

Marcus Stroman, RHP

 

Stroman once again will be the Blue Jays’ No. 1 option this postseason, though it will be a tough challenge. He is 1-2 with a 7.04 ERA in four starts against the Orioles this season.

 

Batting Order (best guess)

 

Carrera

Donaldson

Encarnacion

Bautista

Martin

Tulowitzki

Saunders

Pillar

Travis

 

For the Orioles

 

Chris Tillman, RHP

 

The O’s tabbed Tillman to start the AL Wild Card Game after a strong bounceback season. He is 1-0 with a 3.63 ERA in four starts against Toronto this year.

We'll need the offense to strike early, and let's hope Stroman has his strikeout stuff/intent tonight, because he hasn't been that guy at all vs the Orioles this season and the results have been underwhelming.

 

This guy is very welcome, especially if he's on like in Cleveland or Houston.

 

[Drumcliff]

12 wins required, not 13. Division series are best of 5.

[ChrisS]

Just switch Travis with Zeke and I know it won't happen but Tulo should be above Martin

If Carrera is leading off in a must win game I might not make it to first pitch.

All we can ask from this team is that they try their best.

Not what I want, best guess at what Gibbons will do.

[HealthDream007]

This game is really a coin flip. I'd give a slight edge to the Jays but that's about it. I would say good luck too but of course I don't mean that nor does anybody usually mean that other than to be polite. But I will say this: here's to an exciting game hopefully! ... Oh yeah, and screw the Red Sox!

[Effit]

I might puke. I always feel nervous for the wildcard teams and their fans every year, and now it's us.

[ILikeSoccerandBaseball09]

f*** i'm already nervous. Hate wildcard games, lets hope we pull off the win!

If the Jays are down late against that pen, game over.

 

They need to strike early.

We're tired of exciting games, time for the Jays to have a blowout win. Good luck, or whatever.

[Belliss101]

I'm so damn nervous, yet so excited as well

[Waylanderz]

Just win. Don't care how.

[baconpancakes]

ugh. with lirano looking like the better option, i sure hope gib knows whats best. I like stroman, just HATE him in important games. If he wants to be in the ALE he needs to learn to bring that A game, and this year his A game has been a C+ at best...

[Yorkshire Blue Jay]

Actually, I think he is better when the game and stage is bigger. He didn't let us down in the playoffs and he pitched tremendously the other saturday in the massive game against the Yankees.

 

He didn't pitch too badly in his last start against Baltimore, that loss was solely down to our hitters' approach, which was just awful.

 

I would have preferred the better matchup of Liriano against the O's but would have taken Stroman over Liriano for any other matchup!

[baconpancakes]

Sto better have a 2 inch leash. I would love to see the one-two punch of grill and suna step back up. They were on such a roll for a while there. We gonna need em tonight if we get anywhere close to Brit.

If we just score a bunch early everything will feel better. Bi just don't want to see a tie game after 5.

[HERPDERP]

I'm extremely nervous. I feel like it's better for me to take a sleeping pill and then check the scores early tomorrow.

No kidding. I'm really in the mood for a Jays laugher. I just don't know how I could cope with anything else.

Ever since yesterday, I feel like I'm waiting to be marched off by a gulag.

Go to your local supplement store and get kava

Eat something cheesy after

 

Now watch as it all slips into a beautiful dream

[RealAccountant]

I will be cheering for us today. I am hopeful that we can over come this mistake. After all it's Chris f***ing Tillman FFS

[Mac Outlaw]

It's all on the f***ing table today. Blowout win, blowout loss, close win, close loss, who the hell knows.

 

Toss a coin, that's it.

[LGBJ29]

Stroman against the O's makes me nervous. However, the bigger the game the better he performs, and at very least we know he's not going to let the pressure get to him. He'll be on a short leash with Liriano waiting in the wings. Just win baby

[RealAccountant]

I wonder where this came from

 

Because just looking at the Post Season last year, he had his ass handed to him by the Rangers and the Royals.

He actually pitched lights out in game 2. Decent in game 5 after the 3rd inning. And in game 3 against the Royals was given a big lead, and he didn't allow it to slip away.
