[FierceBlueJay]

Btw Yama was petrified of pitching to Barger.

I think the failure to score the winning run in the 9th was even bigger.

Yes for sure. Felt like they were losing after the 9th there.

[BTS]

Silver linings: the team played in one of the greatest ALCS and WS of all-time and absolutely nobody saw it coming 

[spittin]

How do so many thing go the right way when a team is behind?? The broke bat to get the double play is ridiculous 

[Stangstag]

Blake Snell said luck plays in baseball.

After watching these last 2 games, I agree with him.

Great Series!

We'll do it all over again next year.

Lol what

No we're not. This was our only shot in 32 years

[Buster]

Patented Hoffman meatball.  Patented Kirk DP.

Patented Varsho disappearance.

Maybe. It was pretty obvious they were setting up the DP. Idk if we could avoid that though.

Would have just lined into it if we sent Barger

They lost in the most devastating fashion possible. So many chances to score with runners in scoring position and they couldn't cash in. Also, f*** Jeff Hoffman. A hanging slider to f***ing Miguel Rojas?

That was hard to swallow. Absolutely gutted right now.

[max silver]

It's a real shame that this magical run ended with the Blue Jays running all out of magic. 

[bluejaysinternNo5]

Positives: Toronto more attractive to free agents? Player development possibly got over the hump? The guys will come back hungrier next year?

Negatives: We f***ing lost.

[Big_Walleye]

We twice came within an inch of winning the world series.  IKF at home and Ernie's fly ball.

In the end we lost to a luckier team.  Not a better team but a luckier one!!

Its been a great ride though.  Thank you Blue Jays!!

[BlueJaysFan12345]

We waited 32 damn years to get to the World Series and now we will not know if we will return to the World Series, I will never get over this loss

Honestly that’s what so devastating about this. There is absolutely no gurantee they get here again in the next couple years.

 

i am beyond shattered right now

[John_Havok]

See you guys in a week or so. 

This one is gonna sting for a bit. 

[Buster]

Thisn wasn't luck. 

Yamamoto probably had the best series of any pitcher ever.

 

Maybe any player ever.

[Omar]

There is plenty of blame to go around and I'm sure it will be discussed all off season.  

What really hurts is the realization that it is so hard to get here.  So many things have to go your way as a team.  This team had some over achievers this year and the chances they can reproduce the same results next year is a big question mark right now.  

Have a good night all and don't forget to turn your clocks back an hour.  

ps.  how many weeks until pitchers and catchers report?

We will be lucky to come back in the next 20 years.  The mariners will go 100 years and never even see the World Series.

yea he won his 2 games and I guess technically this one.  But there was luck in a dozen other spots.

[BlueJaysFan12345]

I feel awful for the fans that paid thousands of dollars to watch the Jays lose in heartbreaking fashion in person

[dineke]

Any tips on dealing with this? I ain't really a leafs fan so I've never been this devastated before. I might actually need to go to therapy.

Remember - it's better to have been in the World Series and lost then to have never gone at all. Even if it doesn't feel like it right now.

I'd probably take a break from social media for a while. That's the only advice I could give.

If you play a series and you lose two one run games and a two run games where ALL of them needed one ball to land two feet shorter or longer for us to win, and you win none of them, then luck absolutely plays a part .

It is just a game man, there is more important things in life

The Gimenez laser to Muncy was angels in the outfield

Good question.  Spend time with family or friends?  Pick up a hobby?
