Manoah is one of my favorite starters in jays history already. Dude came in last year and got even better in year 2 with the raised expectations.

I didn’t care when they didn’t represent the tying run. But he was put in the game in a spot where he may have had to face Franco as the tying run, because of the three batter rule. And Franco is way better against lefties. But once he got Franco out, and Arozarena still didn’t represent the tying run, I was fine leaving him in the game to face him. Just because it wasn’t a tying run situation.

Getting the split tomorrow is going to be key.

But wow. You know, at this point, I don't care which WC position we end up in, as long as we're not #2 with the Rays #1. I'll gladly play at Seattle, or host either of them, but I don't want a 3 game series at the Trop.

Just use a RH RP and make it simple next time. One look at Mayza’s splits and he should be able to see that his ABs against RHBs should be purposely limited,

Manoah isn’t going to win the Cy Young, but I think he’s had a season worthy of one. He’s been incredibly consistent, and it seems every time we need a big performance, he gives it.

Fastest pitcher in Blue Jays history to begin his career with 300 strikeouts. He currently also has the best Road ERA of any Blue Jay pitcher in history (2.07) in a season. Both prretty amazing accomplishments!

On pace to be the GOAT Jay pitcher when his career is said and done.

All the WC teams have the same run differential right now. It's been a tight race between three mediocre teams. Granted, if TB was healthy, they would have run away with it, maybe even the division again.

That's probably going to be the only run we get off of McClanahan.

The Rays/Jays are better than mediocre. They aren't elite, but any season where you win 90+ (as both are likely to do) in the AL East is a good season.
