    Are you a real human being with the outlandish hot takes? Did you suddenly forget how Ohtani basically single handedly allowed the Dodgers to come back in game 3? Good grief man this you are so wrong here it's almost impossible to fathom.
  2. max silver
    I think so as well.
  3. max silver
    LMAO, we can always count on you for the most out there takes on the game situations.

    He didn't have a great game at the plate but I fail to see how a single tough game means he shouldn't be on the team next year, that's just a bunch of hyperbolic nonsense. I'd like to see Varsho and Barger swapped in the order for game 7 for sure though.
  5. max silver
    Hoffman is going to feature in this game as well.
  6. max silver
    Really? Gausman gave up several hard hit doubles in that inning. It was an easy decision to walk Ohtani and it took a really lucky Betts ground ball sneaking through the shift for them to score 2 of the runs.
  7. max silver
    How did Varsho kill the Blue Jays rally in the 9th? Did I miss something?
  8. max silver
    Yeah the difference came down a softly Mookie ground ball sneaking through the infield and a ball lodging under the outfield padding. FFS.
  9. max silver
    Yeah that was an awful unproductive out. I think if he even hit a soft grounder to the right side they probably score a run with a runner on third base.
  10. max silver
    I seriously doubt that. This is easily the most resilient Blue Jays team I've watched in my 35+ years of fandom.
  11. max silver
    That was a really bad time for a baserunning error.
  12. max silver
    This team is just amazing resilient. They've been overcoming adversity all season long and I think the regular season served to prepare this group for how to rise against whatever obstacles were put in their way.

    I think we might be in the dawn of a new golden era for Blue Jays baseball. Fan interest is going to be at an all time high, the farm system is in good shape, there stands to be extra payroll available for next season given the extended post season run and associated revenue, and the franchise player who just so happened to level up in the post season is inked long term. A really important offseason awaits given the number of holes in the rotation to be filled and impending Bo decision as well, but I think the bones of a really good 2026 team are already in place at this point.
  14. max silver
    Yeah I thought it was super unlikely he'd be back for the series at any point. I'd guess he's likely a violent swing away from being out of it at this point.

    I've been oddly calm in the world series compared to the prior rounds of the playoffs. I think part of this is due to the satisfaction level of simply getting to the world series in the first place, but if this series goes to game 7 that calmness is going to be gone in a hurry. I want absolutely nothing to do with a game 7 so fingers crossed the boys can find a way to scratch out enough runs against Yamamoto.

    That would make for an interesting poll topic to see how many of us were old enough to remember the first two world series championships. I was mid teens the first time around and I've been waiting my entire adult life for the Blue Jays to get back to a world series.

    Manoah still produced top of the rotation results according to FIP and xERA, and did so largely by inducing soft contact vs the strikeout in his best full season with the club. We can argue forever about how sustainable the success was going to be as the running theory that he was due for a healhy dose of regression, but we'll never know what a healthy Alek Manoah's career arc was going to look like as the offseason shoulder injury started him on a downward spiral with drastically reduced stuff, command and effectiveness.
  18. max silver
    Man as potentially franchise altering the Yesavage saga has become, the post Tommy John surgery recovery arc for Manoah has been equally as tragic. He's literally a shell of his former self, as the velocity and stuff have regressed even further and he continues to be plagued by the walk. It's a damn shame that the guy's career ended up taking this turn as he was a legitimate top of the rotation arm when he was at his best.
  19. max silver
    I don't think there were any players available at the deadline that would have made the front office even consider trading Yesavage.
  20. max silver
    It appears as though Vlad was dealing with several lower half issues that can partially explain the end of season struggles. He was hot as a fire cracker right before the hamstring issues popped up, and the bye was a godsend to allow him to heal up a bit. Hopefully they can bottle up whatever adjustments he made right before the post season as this version of Vlad is in competition with Judge as MLB's best position player. It's too bad WAR isn't calculated during the post season as it would be fun to see what kind of value Vlad has produced.
  21. max silver
    I have to give you credit for calling for the team to bring up Yesavage to act as a savior for the rotation as he's instantly produced ace level starts in the playoffs. With the Yesavage call up, Gausman rediscovering ace form in the later 60% of the regular season, Bieber acquisition and Scherzer getting healthy just in time for the ALCS the Jays suddenly had the makings of a really damn good post season rotation after largely being very pedestrian for the majority of the season.
  22. max silver
    It's hard to believe that this team has scored as many runs as it did despite never featuring a full strength lineup at any point of the season.
  23. max silver
    I think that Yamamoto was a little fortunate that Vlad's frozen rope wasn't a degree or two higher off of the bat as it may have landed in the seats otherwise.
  24. max silver
    It will add a little extra sweetness to the victory if the boys can find a way to defeat Yamamoto tomorrow night. I think the Jays have a shot to perform better after seeing him a second time, but then I imagine the Dodgers were thinking the same thing before facing Yesavage a second time.

    You seem to ask about other dude's sphincters an awful lot. Just sayin'...
