WHAT THE f*** IS UP

I almost forgot which team can "score at will".... Awesome outing by Kevin "not a big game pitcher" Gausman. Will still be a tough series, but f***ing amazing way to get the monkey off the back! Let's go Jays!

What are you talking about, get tickets for every home game or we'll hold you accountable

When I was living in Vancouver, every time the Jays were in Seattle I'd head down with half a dozen to a dozen buddies (and wives) for the entire series. AMAZING atmosphere and great area. I can't even imagine how epic that ballpark would be for a Seattle - Jays playoff game.

Let's GO

This is 41 year old Max Scherzer. I've seen enough through the end of the year that he belongs in the clubhouse with his old war stories for the kids. I'd love to be wrong, but I wouldn't be throwing him out there, even with the thin options we have.

This is right on the money. Vlad's 48 home run season teased fans and created expectations contrary to his actual expected profile. People started expecting a Big Papi type masher, when the scouting profile on him was clear from the get-go that he was not a power first hitter, but a kid with an elite hit tool and plate discipline that smoked the ball. I even recall reading a top scout saying this kid will be a superstar, but not a 40-50HR guy, but a +.300 BA; .400ops; 30 HR type hitter. That is very close to what he currently is. I agree with everyone that this year is a bit of a disappointment, but he also got pretty damn hot during the second half of the season and drove the team's offensive engine for good stretches. Without the massive contract (I was a loud voice calling it an overpay!), it seems a bit crazy to say .292/.381/.467 is a disappointment. But feels that way because his yearly potential is probably a .310/.400/.525 type hitter over a healthy full season. That's the difference between a 4-5 WAR season and a 6-7 WAR type season. Some years he'll exceed that, some years he'll underperform that. He can be insanely frustrating to watch during cold stretches, but the guy is going to be a consistent driver of offense for the team for years.

Lagavulin 16!

I think that would put them over the edge

Haha, I couldn’t help myself! Let’s enjoy this my friend!

It’s almost like….. we are scoring runs… AT WILL! f*** the Yankees!

Wooooooo! BARGER!

Crawling to the pennant one out at a time

Repent!

Big AB

That beauty was blowing kisses to the crowd. What a game for Kirk!

Kirby boy!!! Let’s f***ing go!

I got my weights in this morning to be relaxed for the game - nothing relaxing about this.

Don’t look at the ump, go sit down

This seems like a seven hour game right now

Need more

I’m with you on that one

Ruuuuuuns please

What a strikeout! For all the people s***ing on Gausman, he didn’t have it today but he was amazing for us this September. He will get another chance in the playoffs and I’m pulling for him.

Wtf is happening with this babip luck
