AL Wild Card Round: Toronto Blue Jays vs Tampa Bay Rays

[Deadpool]

Which will f*** up pitchers and relievers alike.

 

Adapt or die, pitchers.

[Orgfiller]

The Rays at Tropicana Field. The one true constant.

[Daniel Labude]

Why is Cole pitching

[Spanky99]

I hate this day!

[saskjayfan]

Why is Cole pitching

 

because we pulled Shoe after 35 pitches?

[Abomination]

Pretty sure I called a Margot home run yesterday. It wasn't the expected walk-off though.

[Jays24]

f***ing cole.....never had to be in this game.

 

but the numbers showed we must pitch shoemaker only 3 innings so we could get to our "proven" bullpen.

[glory]

Ray was doing well but the nerds in the front office only wanted 3 from him, so let’s take his ass out too. Cole giving the Jays what they deserve tonight.

[DigitalRock]

well that hurts

[Spanky99]

Adapt or die, pitchers.

 

lol... they can. We saw it tonight.

[eastcoastjaysfan]

Two f***ing times our manager takes a pitcher out after he finally gets his rhythm and two times they score right away.

[BTS]

Why is Cole pitching

 

This isn't exactly an elite bullpen. Cole pitching isn't egregious.

[Jonn]

The good news is Ryu is pitching game 2. I’m going to remain positive. Chubby asians have only given me good memories.

[DigitalRock]

Just atrocious managing but not why we might lose. 0 runs is.

This was supposed to be a "nothing to lose" playoffs for us. Sadly, we've lost a lot and my trust in this regime continues to be questionable...

[Deadpool]

Well, the excuse for the quick hook earlier in the year was that the bullpen was so good that it was justified...

[saskjayfan]

kirk/rowdy/biggio?

lol... Jonn!

That’s the point. None of these guys are shut down guys you can count on so when you have someone cruising, you should stick with them. Every time you hand someone a ball, you risk them coming in and s***ing it up

[Jays24]

The good news is Ryu is pitching game 2. I’m going to remain positive. Chubby asians have only given me good memories.

 

I wonder how many innings they've already determined for Ryu tomorrow? Dude could have a perfect game going and I can see these idiots taking him out lol

[saskjayfan]

This isn't exactly an elite bullpen. Cole pitching isn't egregious.

 

All the more reason for Shoe to go more than 3 f***ing innings.

[DigitalRock]

Well, the excuse for the quick hook earlier in the year was that the bullpen was so good that it was justified...

 

People like moving goal posts so they can keep saying they were right all along.

Don't want to overuse him... 2 tops.

[BigCecil]

Crazy stuff can happen. I went to first 2 games in TOR, that we lost to Texas in 2015 playoffs and were down 0-2 in that series. Grim.

 

And we all remember who won game 5 bitches.

 

If we can put up some runs and even up tomorrow....can't wait for gm 3.

[Daniel Labude]

This isn't exactly an elite bullpen. Cole pitching isn't egregious.

 

He pitched in mop up duty Sunday. Bunch of better options imo

[Jays24]

why the hell didn't Tellez bat instead of Panik if hes ready?

 

Don't mind losing but frustrating as hell losing because we're led by incompetent idiots...

[glory]

This isn't exactly an elite bullpen. Cole pitching isn't egregious.

 

The problem is the Jays intentionally wrote it up to use that bullpen for at least 9 outs before the game even started. Shoemaker and Ray were both doing well when they were taken out.

[Laika]

smh at these complaints about the pitching decisions

 

the Shoemaker+Ray tandem was excellent. Cole f***ed up buuuuuuut unless the offense wants to wake up and score a couple of runs it's irrelevant

[Spanky99]

Yanks up 2- 0 in love!
