    I'll miss the first hour of the game due to work, but since Price is the pitching, that probably amounts to an inning and a third (that's a Price pitches mad slow joke). Can't wait. Price needs to follow the lead of Keuchel and Arrieta. Aces need to be aces.

    Gibbons having more faith in Estrada than Dickey is weird. Maybe he wants to avoid having Martin catch the Dickster if he can.

    SI curse, Taylor Swift curse, and Jayson Stark/ESPN curse (predicting the Jays to win it all). All those curses have to cancel each other out, right?

    Cecil's amount is way off but the others seem reasonable. Revere based on health is probably a better player and bet than Saunders going forward. I'd non-tender Saunders.

    This was Dickey's best season as a Blue Jay. His turnaround from June onwards was huge.

    The Jays are loaded with superstars but still get the s***** timeslots. Major League Baseball does not know how to market superstars. If they did, Fox/ESPN/etc would know how to feature them. Counting on U.S. markets to draw ratings hasn't worked in years since interest around the country is down. In the NBA, LeBron could play in Toronto and those games would be the highest rated in the U.S. The NBA does it right. Baseball is so far behind.

    Well I guess I'll miss game 2. Waited 22 years to watch a playoff game on Gameday. How great.
  8. glory
    You're right, didn't realize that. So damn I guess we do see Hamels twice.
  9. glory
    Hamels in Game 2 means he only pitches once in this series right? Isn't that what people who wanted HFA were complaining about (only seeing the ace once)? Jays pretty much got their wish, although Gallardo scares me a bit. Off speed stuff means Smoak is pencilled in for 4 K's, at the very least.

    We have to hope the Astros/Royals is the other ALDS game, as MLB will likely favor the team with Price, Donaldson, Bautista, Tulo, etc, on it over those teams when it comes to timeslot. However, yes, the Yankees will get top priority if they end up making it.
  11. glory
    Hamels started today. Does that mean Gallardo starts game 1 for Texas? I hope not.
  12. glory
    Yes, then all the people crying about not facing the Wild Card team would get their wish.

    So we rag on the umps all the time, but now the ump should have called balls into strikes because Buehrle was pitching? Come on. I like Buehrle and wanted him to get 200 innings, but he was on 1 days rest after throwing 100 pitches on Friday. He clearly didn't have anything. Blame the decision makers for starting him in this situation, not the ump. Umpires will always be s***.

    2-2 game in the 6th against the worst team in baseball. There was no need to take Buehrle out of that game. I said so at the time as well.
  15. glory
    Remember that Atlanta start when the game was 2-2 in the 6th, and Buehrle had thrown 5 innings or something like 65 pitches? He could have easily gotten through 7 but Gibbons took him out so that Cola could hit with 2 runners on. That was the difference between 200 innings and 198+ with this embarrassment of an ending. Gibby managing NL games is not going to be fun if this team makes it to the World Series.

    Hamels starting today for the Rangers, so he can't go Thursday unless they pitch him on 3 days rest. I'm actually worried about lefties since Gibbons appears to have Edwin at 1st and Cola at DH against them nowadays, which is beyond stupid.
  17. glory
    lol seriously. I don't know what f***ing game you guys are watching. Even the pitch tracker shows the pitches as balls and you guys are bitching.
  18. glory
    Guys the pitch tracker showed the pitch clearly inside. Do you want robots or not? That was the right call.
  19. glory
    Start a guy on 1 day rest who puts the ball in play all the time.....start your DH at first. Ugh.
  20. glory
    Why is Edwin playing the field? Just put Cola at first and Edwin at DH.

    Yeah the Jays are not limping into the playoffs. Aside from last night, their only losses in the past week have been with a AAA lineup out there. Today's game will be started by a guy on 1 days rest who will pitch two innings tops, followed by Hutchison who can't get MLB hitters out the past month. Unless you believe in the power of momentum, the Jays losing because of s***** lineups they are purposely throwing out there is not likely to cause a huge meltdown a week from now. I do worry about the long lay offs for the SP's, though. I know they are getting side work in, but that's a ton of rest for Price, Stroman, and Dickey. Could be good or bad.

    What if we played the regulars in those games in Baltimore and lost to the Yankees or Astros/Angels in the ALDS? The playoffs in baseball are unpredictable. Just get in and then the rest will sort itself out. If the Jays end up losing to the Rangers, then the Rangers had the better week that week. That's what it comes down to some times.

    History of the 2nd wild card 2012 AL: Orioles (lost to Yankees in ALDS, 3-2) NL: Cardinals (beat Nats in NLDS, lost Giants in NLCS) 2013 AL: Rays (lost to Red Sox in ALDS, 3-1) NL: Pirates (lost to Cardinals in NLDS, 3-2) 2014 AL: Royals (beat Angels and O's in ALDS and ALCS, lost to Giants in WS, 4-3) NL: Giants (won WS) So there have been six WC winners from 2012-14. Three were knocked out of the Divisional Series, and three went beyond the AL/NLDS. Facing the Wild Card team is just as much a coin flip as facing anyone else. Anything can happen in 5 games.

    I absolutely hate the fact that I'm agreeing with a Gibbons decision, but yeah, there was nothing wrong with playing the minor league suck squad in game 2 of the double header and the following day. They essentially had to play 3 games in 20 hours. Most of the guys are probably beat up and could have used the day off.
  25. glory
    So Buehrle throws 2 innings on Sunday?
