I think Baltimore will clinch the first spot, and the Blue Jays should be lucky if they can even play a tie-breaker against the Tigers. The last two starter for the Yankees will be Severino and Cessa.. That means there are 90% chance that the O's will win all two games.

May need to fill my fridge with liquors, so I can drink all of them if the Jays don't make it to the postseason

Both team's starting pitching depths are not that deep. However, Tigers have more options (Verlander, Fulmer, Zimmermann, Daniel Norris, Matt Boyd, Mike Pelfrey, Anibal Sanchez) than the O's (Tillman, Gausman, Gallardo, Miley, Bundy)

I think if Price pitches on Sunday, I'm 99% sure the Jays will lose

Yeah.. I think we won't win a game against Price.

I don't feel confident either... That's why I said that we need to think about some worst case scenarios...

Season series TOR: 10-9 vs BAL, 4-3 vs DET, 3-3 vs SEA BAL: 9-10 vs TOR, 5-2 vs DET, 1-6 vs SEA DET: 3-4 vs TOR, 2-5 vs BAL, 4-3 vs SEA SEA: 3-3 vs TOR, 6-1 vs BAL, 3-4 vs DET SCENARIO 1: If the Jays win their remaining two games (not likely to happen) 1) If Baltimore also wins their remaining two, they will be in the first spot, and the Jays will be in the second spot.. That means the Jays will play at Baltimore for a wildcard game. If the Tigers win all of their remaining games at the same time, that means the Jays may have to play tiebreaker against the Tigers before playing a wildcard game. Since the Blue Jays won the season series against the Tigers, it will be at Toronto 2) If Baltimore goes 1-1, the Jays are tied with them. Since the Jays won the season series against the O's, the wildcard game will be happening in Toronto. If the Tigers win all of their remaining games at the same time, three of them are tied. In this case, Detroit will be at Baltimore for a tie-breaker and the winner will face the Jays in Toronto. (Since Toronto has better record against both teams) 3) If Baltimore goes 0-2, the Jays clinch the first spot regardless.. NOTE: Seattle is eliminated if the Blue Jays win their remaining two games. Scenario 2: If the Jays are 1-1 1) If the O's are 2-0, or 1-1 they are in the first spot regardless. If the Tigers are 2-1 at the same time (including a make-up game against CLE), the Jays will play tiebreaker with them in Toronto. If the Tigers are 3-0, Tigers are in the second spot, and the Jays are done. 2) If the O's are 0-2, and the Tigers win no more than 2 games, the Jays and the O's are tied.. That means, a wildcard game in Toronto If the Tigers are 2-1 at the same time, three teams are tied. So DET at BAL, and the winner will face the Jays in Toronto If the Tigers are 3-0 at the same time, they will be in the first wildcard spot, so Baltimore will play tiebreaker in Toronto. Seattle need to win their remaining games to play at least a tiebreaker or they are done. Scenario 3: If the Jays are 0-2 (Swept) 1) The Orioles are in the first spot regardless. 2 If the Tigers are 2-1 or 3-0 in their remaining games (including a make-up game against CLE), the Tigers are in, and the Jays are DONE 3) If the Tigers are 1-2, the Jays will play the Tigers in the tie-breaker in Toronto -If the Mariners win all three, it will be SEA at DET for a tie breaker (Jays are done) -If the Mariners are 2-1, that will be three way tie... and it will get more complicated 4) If the Tigers are 0-3, the Jays will clinch and play at Baltimore for a wildcard game. So I think we will make it to at least a tie-breaker if we win just 1 of our next 2, but looks like we are gonna get swept and we need to think about some worst scenarios..

Hi, do you guys know if I get my money back when the Jays do not play their wildcard game at home? (or not at all) I got two wildcard game tickets, and I don't feel confident that it will happen.. If yes, how am I get my money back?

Damn.....

Damn... looks like they wont score.....

Alright lets score some runs here

Safe

I think that was close.. so I think it will be safe

If they don't score here.. I will kill myself

Quick fact Baltimore is 5-12 at the Yankee Stadium since 2015 Toronto is 9-7 at Fenway since 2015

Time to start FIRE GIBBY chant?

I wont make a thread anymore....

Indians vs Tigers game is cancelled. If a game do matter for the standings, they will play on Monday Oct 3. If not, the game will not happen

Meanwhile, the Tigers are still in rain delay.. According to the forecast, the rain may taper off around 6-7pm, so they may go ahead if their playing ground is looking ok.

I'm not a big fan of Bautista leading off.. How bout Tulo leading off like August last year?

lol

So looks like Cecil or Biagini will close if it is a tight game..

And he hit a game winning hit (or home run) for us.He is hitting 0.364 vs Jimenez
