    I guess the Jays figured that protection for Vlad in the order is worth the risk on defense. We'll know when the lineup comes in out.

    Can the Jays layoff Snell's change up? The Brewers couldn't. If the Jays overcome this it wouldn't surprise me if they get some runs off of him. Knocking him out of the game would be a shock to the Dodgers that will echo into game two of the series. Let's go Jays.

    I watched the documentary called Who Killed the Expos recently on Netflix. Didn't like it. Maybe because I was never an Expos fan.

    Was there a better first basemen with the glove than Donny? Not that I have ever seen.

    This is gold. Just put it on repeat.

    Great post. Dan Wilson used the same strategy that got him to the ALCS and I think he believes it was the right call. Failure to recognize "this the game" moment and call an audible to deviate from the plan led to the Mariners demise. This is why playoff baseball is different. You can utilize strategy all season long to get across the finish line at the end of the season but it is the tactics employed in a short series that ends in success. If a team/manager fails to adapt and employ those tactics well then you have the Blue Jays playoff failures of the 2020's before this season. Perhaps John Schneider and the Blue Jays have figured that part out.

    MLB reports that they used them on the road as well. Was a big story in the Wall St Journal at the time.

    I can't see anything in Laika post either. I think it has something to do with dark mode and the color of text he is pasting.

    So the Dodgers have much lauded pre series scouting of their opponents. If as sliderguy pointed out that the Brewers had a higher line drive rate than either ALCS team that is worrisome. Perhaps they won't have as good of a book on the Jays being in a different league. One thing I noticed in the ALCS was Naylor's positioning was uncanny. He seemed to rob us of line drives every game. The Jays are going to need every edge they can find. Hopefully the Dodgers book on us won't be as perceptive.

    I think some of you here don't understand the importance of the Alomar hr. It was against Eckersly who was basically unhittable and was a douchebag to boot. Also it was the hr that broke the ice finally. Before that the Jays couldn't conceive of getting over the the hump. It was a seminal moment. Perhaps you had to live through it to get it.

    Don't care about the oddsmakers. Throw them out. Four games are winnable if the Jays play to their capabilities. The big questions for me are: How do they deploy Bichette? Will his bat be up to speed after the long layoff? We need every lefty swinging dick we can muster out of the pen. Will this be the redemption arc for Little or is it just an issue between the ears for him? JS has to rethink his tactics of bullpen management. Will he adapt to using Bassitt and Lauer in bigger spots or is he going with the same old? Is IKF now a fixture in the starting lineup? Going to be a heck of a ride.

    Post Script: Not to put too fine a point on this game/series but I felt an inner peace prior to this game as noted above. I'm so happy that both teams played error free baseball and that this game wasn't decided on a controversial call or flub. Congratulations to the Mariners for a great season. They took our Jays to task for seven games right to the last out. That said, George Springer is now immortalized in Blue Jay lore. The summer of George continues into the fall. Congratulations to everyone on this board especially the Old Timey guys who have stuck with this team. We're going to the dance!

    Brash looked pretty tired yesterday so I can see that. But if you have a weapon like Munoz it makes you scratch your head.
  19. Omar
    Absolutely. A historic post season performance by any measure.

    That sound you hear is Ross Atkins balls hitting each other as he walks around the infield.
