Bo with the patented panic swings on pitches 5 feet off the plate. Im sorry, but these guys arent built for the playoffs.

The early Gausman pull was never gonna be a problem for the purposes of winning this game. The potential problem with it is what it does to their chances of winning game 2 and game 3.


it's over anyways, look at these at bats, desperately hacking away at total junk.

No reason to think they'll advance anyway. They don't really hit at all.

Bichette needs to be aware of who is running there (or jogging) and not rush that throw off the base. Awareness of game situations has never really been his thing though.

Yes, which is why the early Gausman pull made little sense. Throw everything you've got into winning tomorrow.

They deserve a better GM who can build a competent offence and a better manager who doesn't lose games with bad decision making.

KK, Chapman and Merrifield coming up against Duran in the 9th. This should be entertaining at least...for the twins. :lol:

Hicks just completely losing his FB command again like his last outing. I assume we won't be hearing any more clamoring about how he's allegedly better than Romano.

Looks like the Jays lineup are hung over from that fantastic wild card berth celebration two days ago. Note to all young players: never over celebrate when you haven't won jack.

Unfortunately for our guys that's a borderline championship win.

Hicks doesn't have a clue at all where that pitch is going.

Hicks losing out on the big offers some here wanted to make him this offseason.
