The Blue Jays baseball team will try to defeat the Baltimore Orioles baseball team! Will they? I don't know, the games haven't been played yet! I hope they do, though!

Also of note, Anthony Alford is playing tonight, so that's going to be interesting.

Excited to see Alford. Can't believe we already called him up lol.

I wanna see Smith as well lol

Go zilby. Be the thread starter that I could not.

Very excited to see Alford's debut. He has had a good month in AA.

Why on Earth did they promote Alford? Very surprised. 141 plate appearances above A ball, from a management team that said it's going to be conservative with prospect development!?

Pretty sure it's a one emergency start type of thing. There's no way Alford is ready for extended at-bats in the majors yet.

I wonder if Edwin gets booed in Baltimore, when he plays there with the Indians?

They had a need, but other AAAA guys could have filled it. I'm pretty shocked that they reached for Alford. Maybe their performance team thought he'd benefit from a taste of MLB action?

There's literally no other option on the 40 man roster.

Mash Tillman.

Yet another replay goes against us.

Who's going to get a bigger contract: Bryce Harper or Smoak?

Where's that guy that used to demand more squeezes?

RIP, squeeze play guy.

Well they could've had another run there if didn't try to bunt again

lol of course travis injures himself on a dumbass play

Wtf was that call? Why are you bailing them out like that, zero reason to try a **** suicide squeeze

small ball ftw boys

man wtf was smoak swinging at.

looked like it hit him tbh

Lmao swinging at a pitch that ends up hitting you. Only we could get that unlucky.
