    Jays are sitting comfortably ahead of both Boston and New York. Avoid a losing streak of 5-6 games in September, and the Jays should be fine. Even still, Boston or New York would have to make up ground over those games, which likely amounts to 2 or 3 games. Yes makes it closer for comfort, but doubt either team surpasses Toronto. More worried about the #1 and #2 seeds. It's so important to grab one in order to avoid a WC matchup and to at least get home field in the DS.

    Home field during the Postseason is going to be really important. Jays most likely to get the #2 seed, though getting the #1 seed in the AL would be nice guaranteeing home field right through to the ALCS.

    Tonight's game will likely be the most challenging with Ryan on the mound. If the Jays can take Game 1, they have a great chance at a sweep. Jays should be good taking Game 2. Ober has been awful this season and Bassitt is pitching at home. Game 3: Lauer vs TBD.

    During the 2009 season at the end of August in Boston and during the 2010 season in Philly during the Jays home series at Citizen Bank Park haha.

    Nice to see Schneider in the lineup!

    You've never stayed at a team hotel on the road before I'm assuming :P

    When I went to Minny back in June, there were a lot of Jays fans but mostly from Manitoba and Saskatchewan. Geographically, since Minneapolis isn't too far from the Canadian border, you likely will get a lot of Jays fans from the Prairies coming down for every Jays/Twins series. Either a 7-8 hour drive or short flight.

    Any Jays BP arms unavailable for today? Hoffman? 18 pitches each on Friday and yesterday.

    Geographically, having the Jays in a Great Lakes division makes a lot of sense. Toronto/Detroit is a nice rivalry and could grow bigger given the success of both teams over this last season. Cleveland is a 5-6 hour drive from Toronto, same with Pittsburgh. Even for fans, would be a great opportunity to see more Jays games out of town without having to fly anywhere. For sure a division should include Detroit, Toronto and Cleveland. As for a 4th team, either Minnesota or Pittsburgh.

    Vladdy likely won't be in any condition to play this afternoon.

    The Jays definitely partied hard in South Beach especially since it was their last night in Miami. Most players are going to show up hungover with very little sleep and just want to come back home to Toronto. Plus Eury Perez is on the mound.

    Dodgers forgot how to score runs. Nestor Cortes looked like a Cy Young winner yesterday, throwing a no-hitter into the 6th inning 🤣

    2 HR and 5 RBI game last night. He's back.

    If Nola returns to his previous elite form over the last month, Phillies rotation can weather the storm. A rotation of Sanchez, Nola, Luzardo and Suarez is still very solid. But yeah losing Wheeler and his Postseason experience is a big blow.

    That nickname belongs to someone else. Sure, I'm alright with Bo staying here long term due to his bat (if he keeps this level up, tough replacing), marketability and if the Jays still have money to sign other players/arms this offseason like a No. 1 starter. Also, if there is a mutual understanding that Bo will move off shortstop in the next couple of years.

    Yeah that's unfortunate. Hopefully Nola returns to some version of his old self for them. This season seems wide open when it comes to the Postseason. Like there really isn't a true dominant team both in the AL or NL.
  18. jaysblue
    Probably Atlanta would until Albies becomes a FA in 2028 or if they decline one of his club options.
  19. jaysblue
    My other prediction: Jays will beat the Marlins today and tonight are going to be partying hard down at South Beach. Tomorrow's game will be a write off.
  20. jaysblue
    Berrios has something to pitch for. He's going to carve up this Marlins lineup!
  21. jaysblue
    Grant is somewhere crying in a corner.

    Statically speaking this season, Suarez has put up better numbers. Then again, I don't buy into Suarez at 34 being this good all of a sudden and like this moving forward. I still would take Miller over him. Miller is still only 26 and his K/9 is far superior. BB/9 is a bit on the higher side in comparison to last season. If Suarez repeats this season again and shows this form over 2-3 seasons in a row, then sure! Suarez vs. the Dodgers this season: 7.36 ERA with 2 losses. Small sample size yes, but it seems like the Dodgers have his number and we know when it comes to closers, physiological factors can definitely be at play. Also, never said anything bad about the Padres bullpen. Though sure, put words into my mouth in order to fit your narrative and for something for you to argue about!
  23. jaysblue
    Most likely its close to Wily Adames and yeah Bichette is in the drivers seat given the weak market for shortstops this offseason. I could see the Braves going hard after Bichette. Also, wouldn't count out the Padres from spending money, but they would have to move Bogaerts or Bo over to 2B and trade Cronenworth or use him in a utility/DH role.
  24. jaysblue
    Ok knucklehead. Never said anything bad about their bullpen as a team. Read my previous post. I just said I'm not completely sold on Suarez as a closer in comparison to some other guys. Heck I even think Mason Miller is their best arm, but not going to mess with roles at this point now in the season.
  25. jaysblue
    Yeah exactly and it's just for one week as well. They'll bring Fisher and Loperfido back in September. Better to keep Nance in the fold since he's pitched well and don't want to risk losing him to another team.
