There is no way s guy who just threw close to 100 pitches would be available the next day. Just will not happen. Not sure if you've ever felt what a pitcher's arm feels like the day after a start, but its not something you can just will yourself through. It's swollen, inflamed and all kinds of f***ed up

Imagine thinking that, lol

[hanton]

Roberts got lucky 

[Slade]

Don't let Ohtani beat you no matter what.

I dislike it too but with Bo out there guaranteed to be lifted if he gets near scoring position later you have to keep Gimenez in 

True. And he had a good at bat there to be fair. And 2 good outs earlier. Gimenez is seeing the ball well

[Angrioter]

Giminez against Wrobleski 

[Doc]

I think they prefer playing on the road in the postseason.

Randy Johnson says hi.

Freaks like Randy Johnson don't exist anymore. And he was probably the first guy to do it in 60 years or something prior. It's not something to be concerned about

I thought Roberts said something about using him in a game 7, maybe it was ohtani he said

[ComeTogether]

Let's go Flu 

[rydermike]

Ok good. No reason for Varland to pitch to ohtani

Was definitely talk of using Ohtani in game 7,

But if they do they'll have to either use him as an opener, or start him in the OF. 

If he starts at DH and then goes to pitch later, they lose the DH spot.

Really needed somebody on base ahead of Clement,

That play by Rojas was key in that frame, nice play.

If they really need to they can put both Davis Schneider and Myles Straw at Second Base. Straw hasn't played any infield this Season but he has played both Shortstop and Second Base.

What sucks is dodgers have done absolutely anything outside 3rd inning.

[Omar]

Have to get to Sasaki.  It's doable.  

[Angrioter]

If Flu stop the Dodgers here, Jays will win with a epic comeback 

[Abomination]

So far the Jays have an xBA of .228 and the Dodgers .151.

One elite splitter to another.

This. 

Gausman threw 5 innings of 3 up, 3 down. One rough inning. 

Jays have even Yamamoto hard, they just weren't able to string them together all at once. There's still a chance here though. There's some magic left in the sticks yet

[Slade]

Ohtani is just good man, you can't let him hit. 

[bluejaysinternNo5]

I thought that was a routine pop fly off the bat wtf

Yamamoto's splitter is elite. Sasaki's is god-tier. 

[bluejaysinternNo5]

Please Flu

[416BlueJs]

How did that ball go that far

[John_Havok]

That was a great pitch too... f*** me lol

[mphenhef]

Jesus, I can’t believe he hit that that far and somehow found a gap.

[hanton]

What the hell.....
