ST: Indians @ Blue Jays August 31st-September 2nd 

Post#1 » by duppyy » Mon Aug 31, 2015 2:30 pm

Today vs Indians 7:07 PM
Tomorrow vs Indians 7:07 PM
Wed, Sep 2 vs Indians 7:07 PM


Danny Salazar, RHP


Salazar was scratched from his last start because of a virus that caused him to lose "five or six" pounds. He last pitched Aug. 22 in New York against the Yankees.

vs

David Price, LHP


Price is a 4-0 with a 1.98 ERA (8 ER/36 1/3 IP) in five starts since joining the Blue Jays. He has allowed two earned runs or less in 15 of his last 18 outings overall and has been everything Toronto could have hoped for and more.


Cody Anderson, RHP


Anderson will be making his second start since being activated from the disabled list. He threw 75 pitches in his first start back, and he will have an increased pitch count this time out. He has never faced the Blue Jays.

vs

Marco Estrada, RHP


Estrada has allowed more than three earned runs in just one of his last 13 starts and has a 2.42 ERA over that same span. The 32-year-old has been around for eight seasons, but this will mark his first career appearance against the Indians.


Trevor Bauer, RHP


After a home run-filled stretch through July and early August, Bauer has found renewed confidence in his two-seam fastball over his past two starts, leading to more ground balls and fewer homers. He’ll look to keep that going against Toronto.

vs

R.A. Dickey, RHP


The 40-year-old knuckleballer has thrived since the All-Star break, going 6-0 with a 3.07 ERA in nine starts. Dickey has thrown eight quality starts in his last 10 outings.

Let's go Blue Jays!

Let's win for the 22nd time this month for the first time since the Athletics in 2002.

A little prosaic compared to Mr. Cohen, but I'll take it. I'll settle for wins too, they can keep their souls.

All very winnable games. Let's go for another sweep!

“We could have gone forever. (Raptors management) kept knocking on the door and I was like, ‘A couple more minutes.’ Because we were really into it."

They've won 5 in a row so I don't expect them to roll over as much as the Tigers did

I wouldn't think so either, the Tigers are really slumping. At least we miss 2 of 3 of the good Indians starters and Salazar hasn't pitched in a week and a half. Not sure if that will help or hinder him at this point in the year.

Bruno, you're the GOAT!

...and the conversation after this catch.

Homer Simpson: You're Kevin Pillar!
Kevin "Strawberry" Pillar: Yes.
Homer Simpson: You play centre field.
Kevin "Strawberry" Pillar: Yes.
Homer Simpson: I play centre field too.
Kevin "Strawberry" Pillar: So?
Homer Simpson: Well, are you better than me?
Kevin "Strawberry" Pillar: Well, I've never met you, but... yes.
