We're away on the home stretch! Jays (87-62) @ Rays (73-76) September 15-18

[Parataxis]

With the Jays sweeping the Orioles, their playoff (and division champs) odds keep increasing as the other teams start running out of time to make a move - the clock is ticking. But nobody cares about that right now - everybody wants to see how Yesavage does. Not just making his Show debut, but doing it as a starter. We're back up to a six man rotation, although I suspect that Lauer is going to be kept warm in case Trey falters.

Will he? Won't he? LETS FIND OUT.

We've traditionally had issues with any iteration of the Rays, but hopefully we can overcome that. Gausman, if he does well over his last few starts, still has a chance at 200IP and 200Ks, either of which would be fantastic.

Lets go Blue Jays!

We just did the impossible by sweeping the Orioles. But now comes the real test. The Rays have owned our souls for as long as I can remember. In my headcanon, we've never swept them. Let's do it now.

Looks like IKF confirmed what was already suspected (that Bichette won’t be back any time soon/by the start of the playoffs). Increases the need for Santander get back and be productive even more.
