Apparently, he’s not really sure what he’s trying to do out there exactly, but doesn’t seem to matter! lol

I've been told that the Yankees would never lose games to teams like the Twins or the Orioles, so we should probably be worried. :lol:

Probably close to fairly standard odds when you fall behind 1-0 in an MLB game if you are an average to good team.

Amazingly Jays are 42-44 now when they fall behind to start the game.
If you bet on the Jays every time they fall behind to start the game, you would be a rich man right now.

This is a game the Jays would have lost in previous years. Not the 2025 Blue Jays. Maybe we do have the magic like the 2015 Royals.

Amazing game by Yesavage. I'm a bit worried how his stuff will play next season, when MLB batters have had an opportunity to gameplan against him and program him into a pitching machine, but that's a worry for next season.

Gosh, that was a good win.

If they use Fisher in high leverage over Hoffman and Varland, sky may be the limit

Looks like Bo could DH https://www.espn.com/mlb/story/_/id/46275218/blue-jays-bichette-knee-seeks-2nd-opinion-move-dh

Could mean Santander doesn't get the call.

I mean, Santander is gonna be playing the last week for us one way or the other. We’ve gotta see what he is prior to the playoffs whether Bichette is healthy enough to hit or not

Jays could clinch a playoff spot as early as Wednesday. I was initially thinking it could be Tuesday night (in relation to Texas), but Cleveland has moved ahead of Texas and could still win 91 games. Our magic number vs Cleveland is currently 3.

Check the Yankees schedule, not even close to over


We basically have a 6 game lead with 12 games to go. Even with the Yankees soft schedule, they'd have to like win 10 straight just to make it interesting, and that's if we suddenly start playing below .500.
