    The politically correct thing to say. Stripling hands down is ahead of Berrios. Berrios still has to show the Jays he can be reliable in a big game. He needs to make 3 or 4 very strong starts to end the season before he gains any trust in the Postseason.
  2. jaysblue
    Based on performance thus far, has to be Stripling IMO. No questions asked.

    Bills were such easy money! They should have destroyed them 60-0. Couple of turnovers in the first half. Otherwise, this team looks unstoppable this season if they can stay healthy!

    Pearson to the pen would be nice. I think he can make a Phil Hughes impact down there.

    Bills over the Rams!

    I would have said Verlander was a lock for the AL Cy Young until he got injured. McClanahan as well would have been in the conversation, though he's on the IL and has struggled a bit in the second half. I think it has to be Gausman based on having the highest WAR and other very strong numbers across the board, though his W-L record will hold him back along with an ERA above 3 when it comes down to the voters.

    White > Kikuchi

    Bet the Blue Jays now. +330 odds!

    Didn't we just have a discussion a while ago on how the front of this rotation with Gausman and Manoah has been better than what Ray and Manoah did last year? Even Stripling stepping up and contributing. Otherwise yes Berrios, Ryu injured and Kikuchi becoming a dumpster fire have been a negative. Plus, I recall some homers on here saying the Jays bullpen is really good!

    I've also acknowledged the positive anomalies on this board along with the negative ones. Some posters/homers on here get all pissy if you criticize one thing about this team which is ridiculous. The reality is that this team has been inconsistent throughout most of the season. We can all acknowledge that. There have been times where this team looks unstoppable and then other times where it's been complete frustration. Every team goes through their ups and downs during 162. Some more than others. Like BigCecil said in his last post: even 5 straight wins after the Angels series, the Blue Jays are just holding onto the last wildcard spot. It's always tougher for a team to play catch up as the season keeps winding down. If the Blue Jays were more consistent during the course of the first five months of this season, they're in a better position maybe leading the Wildcard by 5 or more games or leading the division. In that case, losing a series against a sub. 500 team in September isn't as magnified.

    Calm down geez haha.

    Jay, if the Blue Jays lose 5 of their next 6 games at this point in the season, that's not a good thing given their position. They can't afford to. If they had a 7 or 8 game lead in the division and lost 5 of their next 6, while I would be worried and sweating, they have a bit of a cushion for error at least. Right now they're playing great ball, so lets hope they keep it up!
  13. jaysblue
    Yup, I'm sure even Cardinals fans are complaining how they lost 6-0 to the Nats last night.

    Jay, the Blue Jays have been inconsistent this season. It's a fact. It doesn't mean that this team is awful or anything. Never said that. Though definitely can be frustrating at times. Regardless, a lot of these upcoming games, especially against the O's and Rays, the Blue Jays need to play great ball! Taking the doubleheader yesterday was huge and lets hope they keep that momentum rolling. Any hiccup though at this juncture of the season could be the difference of the Jays or another team in a similar position making or not making the Postseason. Overall, things are looking good and if they can go on a big run, the division is even within reach!
  15. jaysblue
    Of course the Jays can bank some wins down the stretch and win 10 or 15 games in a row. At this point in the season given where the team is, there is less room for error. I think we both can agree.
  16. jaysblue
    Some of those winnable games in April, May, June, or July would have helped right now though Jay. The Blue Jays are where they're at now because they have been an inconsistent team this season. So they have to win a lot of these upcoming games and can't afford to get swept or lose two of three by a team like the Angels at this juncture in the season. Whereas if the Blue Jays had a 5 or 6 game lead in the division at this point, losing a series wouldn't hurt them as much.
  17. jaysblue
    Hard to disagree with anything you said. The difference is the Blue Jays have put themselves in this position chasing down a Wildcard spot because of their inconsistent play over the course of the season thus far. It's frustrating for sure because a lot of us expect better from this team given their solid young core and talent. When the Jays get swept by the Angels or lose two of three against a sub .500 team at this point in the season, yes that's something to get frustrated about given that they need those wins to secure a spot in the Postseason. A team like the Dodgers or Yankees already have those wins banked because they were consistent and dominant during the first half. So if the Dodgers lose two of three to the Nationals, it's not the end of the world at this point in the season. The Yankees look like they're in free fall though, which would be a historic collapse. Though still they're 5.0 games up over Tampa and 5.5 over Toronto despite their awful play.
  18. jaysblue
    Home games will be a huge advantage in that Wildcard short series no matter who the opponent is. Having last ABs if a game gets to extra innings along with 50K screaming fans at the Rogers Centre definitely is much more favorable.
  19. jaysblue
    Last time I checked, Rays have been a better team up to this point. And yeah, because they're the Rays!
  20. jaysblue
    Braves will surpass the Mets IMO and are the better team all around.
  21. jaysblue
    He'll get to 700. Cards will give him every opportunity and he still has 30 games to do so!
  22. jaysblue
    At least Bo isn't Russ Adams!
  23. jaysblue
    Where did you say lets bet? If I make a prediction at the beginning of the season and say the Rays will win the Division, why do I have to bet anything to make what I said true lol.

    This was your response to my post back on April 6th haha
