How's everyone Feeling?

To get Bo back on the roster, would you sacrifice Heineman's spot, and have Varsho has the backup (emergency) catcher?

Maybe get France back on the roster for Kiner-Falefa.

How about Scherzer, Berrios and Bassitt, would you add them on? who would you take off the roster?

It is straight forward- Bo should be in and the scrub IKF is out. Bo can be DH the rest of the post-season. Bassitt should be in, and Bruihl is out.

Berrios has not even resumed throwing, and the next time you will see him pitch is Spring Training 2026. Scherzer can also continue to being a cheerleader in the dug out. He should never pitch again in a Jays uniform.

The only issue with bringing Bo back is that you'll then have three guys (Springer, Bo, and Santander) who really should be DHing. So there's definitely no room for France. And you've gotta keep Heineman around; that's a no brainer.

Honestly, with off days after games 2 and 5, I wouldn't mind dropping down to 12 pitchers. Bring back Bassitt and Bo, send down Bruhil and Nance (who I love, but Schneider isn't playing him anyhow)

I would leave Nance/Bruhl off and bring Scherzer/Bassitt. If Bichette can't run or field I'd rather keep the team we have, bringing him as a DH compromises us too much defensively with Springer DHing and I don't want to see Santander in the field a lot either.

Good, I'm happy it's the Mariners. Jays won't take them lightly and won't have any issues getting up for these games.It's going to be a fun series.

Would have rather played Det.Jays not the same team that lost to Seattle before.Maybe Schneider/Walker figure out how to pitch Raleigh.

I felt in 2015 the quick turnaround after such an emotional Game 5 vs the Rangers hurt the Jays. I wonder if that will happen to the Mariners.

The Mariners were unable to hit Detroit's **** pitching all series. They're ice cold right now and have been since the Dodgers series. They needed fifteen innings to break a tie with a team using a minor league bullpen.

Can we hit their pitching though? Their bullpen is pretty lights out.

Living in Detroit area, was really hoping it would be the Tigers. Would’ve been awesome going to these games

Alas, time to take care of unfinished business with the Mariners

Yeah even though the Jays are a very good hitting team statistically this year we know they can be shut down at times. The Ms pitching is better than the Yankees’

Damn, wife and I were talking about doing a Detroit trip for one of the games last night had they won.

Is it? Their pen is better for sure but id probably take Rodon/Fried/Cam over Woo/Kirby/Castillo their pen is probably better tho.

Offensively their kinda like a worse Yankees, tons of HRs and tons of Ks. Obviously they can get hot but I think Gausman/Trey/Bieber can hold things down and if Woo isnt back at all or is pitching hurt I like our chances. Gotta go up 2-0 going back to seattle.

Dont see it.

There will be some but it won’t be like the regular season games where Jays fans buy up the tickets way in advance
