This needs to be the official game thread. Or we'll be cursed by the Baseball Gods. Do the right thing Schad.

Canada is a nation of laws and rules! Without laws and rules, fans would be free to throw beer cans on the field. Ex-mods could randomly start game threads or worse!

My guess is Estrada for Game 1, Happ for game 2 and Sanchez at home for Game 3.

Our Goal has to be to steal one in texas and go back to Toronto 1-1.

2-0 would be bad either lol

Donaldson needs an iconic home run so we can finish the trifecta

Hard to go wrong any way, but Sanchez has been significantly better away from the dome so I'd considering flipping Happ and Sanchez. Happ is better at home. Estrada has to open the series regardless.

Why do people want Estrada to play the first game? You seriously want Estrada to play twice in the series? No way.

We need Sanchez and Happ to play twice in the series.

1. Happ
2. Sanchez
3. Estrada
4. Stroman/Happ
5. Sanchez/Happ

Liriano into bullpen.

Why does Estrada have to open the series?

Over the last two seasons he's been significantly worse the more rest he gets. 5 days rest for him isn't ideal either but we can't do anything about that.

So you play him again in the 5th game? :S
