AL Beasts of the East - Division Race '23

[G-Snarls]

If the Birds bats hadn't of no-showed, we'd have been 4.5 GB, the 8th inning was particularly disappointing.

 

Seriously though

 

Feels like we should be closer

[Spanky99]

They've picked up plenty of games on the Rays here lately, the O's, not so much.

 

Hoping they split there up coming series H2H.

[Eat My Shatkins]

It's weird as f*** because I agree it feels like we should be closer, but at the same time with Vlad, Manoah and Kirk combining for 0.1 fWAR I can hardly understand how the Jays are even in it at all.

 

Who saw that coming?

[G-Snarls]

If we can win today and take 2/3 against Seattle we'll gain some ground on one of them

 

We gotta win today though

Won our game! Woohoo.

 

Now Orioles vs Rays *4* game series

 

Good things could happen if we play well in Seatlle

It was nice of Kelenic to kick the water cool and break his foot - putting him out for the year too.

Jeeeez that’s not smart

[Terminator]

So embarrassing lol

 

This is a game where Lou Gehrig gets diagnosed with a terminal disease which ends both his career and life and he tells the home crowd that he's "the luckiest man on the face of the earth."

 

Compare that to Kelenic who kicks a water cooler, breaks his foot and then weeps in the follow up interview. I hope we sweep those *******s this weekend.

lmao... Gold!

[Spanky99]

We miss the M's top 2 arms in Castillo and Kirby too, noice. Must win this series.

[G-Snarls]

lmao... Gold!

I don't even know who to cheer for Rays or Orioles. Both options are distasteful. It's nice to see the Rays plummeting back to earth. But it's not nice seeing the Orioles soaring like this.

 

I guess just win our games and see what happens

Basically, yes. Whomever loses tonight we'll be 4.5 back.

Is it a 4 gamer?

 

Hope for a split

[G-Snarls]

Rays singled themselves a run

 

1-0

[G-Snarls]

Yes 4 games Thurs-Sun

 

Split while we win 3/4 on those same days sounds fine

[G-Snarls]

Oriolesup 3-1

 

Jose Siri pissed off and breaking things

We're in mid July fellas, lol... it is fun isn't it.

I would be having a lot more fun with another bat in the lineup.

Jays are standing pat, Jonn?

 

The bum fit in well today.

Jays are actually in a pretty good position right now, we have an easier schedule down the stretch then most of our division opponents except for the Yankees. Baltimore has the 4th toughest schedule left remaining while we are 14th. We have a really good stretch of beatable opponents at the end of Aug/beginning of Sept. Those last 12 games against the Rays/Yankees to finish the season are gonna be fun!

Just bought tickets for aug 11 12 13 in TOR. Jose’s big event on 12th sold out already. Had to buy that game on stubhub. Should be some chillingly good memories on the big screen.

[G-Snarls]

Orioles nab a 1 run lead in the 10th

 

Bringing back Bautista for a full 2 inning outing against the meat of the Rays order

[G-Snarls]

And he pulled it off

 

Orioles win 4-3

You guys think the O's will make big moves at the trade deadline? They're usually not known to do so...

They'd be stupid, if they don't, I didn't even get their offseason.
