Rays have two more vs. the A's and then @ Min, @ Detroit and @ Boston.
Going to be very tight heading into the break but we've got a chance to take the lead.
Warren vs. Berrios
Schmidt vs. Bassitt
vs. LAA
@ CHW (revenge series)
@ OAK
All-Star Break
Need to finish off the Yanks and then keep the foot on the peddle until the ASB.
Yeah it's not ideal but I think Yariel warmed up yesterday and then again today (as he should have in what looked like close games) after throwing nearly 2 innings of high leverage on Sunday.
So he just decided to bring him in this time to eat the inning and then he'll get a day off tomorrow. Instead of having him throw 4 days in a row.
The pen should be in better shape tomorrow. Hoffman and Little will be available and I believe Yimi will be back too.
That could be a good move. It's also tempting to put Yariel out there for the 8th and then figure the 9th out after.
EDIT: Nevermind I got my innings mixed up
Sometimes teams just know when to lay off the splitter or not and you can bet your ass that the cheating Yanks will do it more often than not
At least he got through 5
If the Jays can go 3-1 here there is a good chance we pass them before the break. 2-2 and it will be close.
Jays finish with vs. LAA, @CWS (revenge series) and @OAK.
Yanks finish with @NYM, vs. SEA and vs. CHC.
Trade deadline is fast approaching
4 game series against the Yankees tomorrow
Rodon vs. Scherzer to kick things off
The AL East is up for grabs and the pennant chase is on
So long Mass holes!! That’s already a season series W!
I hope you Chowderheads enjoy the rest of your summer watching garbage baseball and eating beans!
