Don’t pitch Scherzer or Hoffman.

Did you watch this series lmao? I'd be shocked if we didn't sweep.

Don’t look up Raleigh’s numbers at the RC


It's okay. Vladdy will outplay him.

Vlad’s numbers in Seattle are not great to look at

Trouble lies ahead

Honestly, our path to a WS is clear. Just don't pitch those two. That's it.

What a fraudulent team. The entire second half this season they were so bad. Just lucky they made the playoffs at all and didn't pull a Mets.


To be fair, Seattle had an identical 2nd half season record as the Jays and it took them 15 innings in Game 5 to eliminate this "fraudulent" Detroit team. Thanks to the Tigers, the Mariners was taken to their absolute limit putting well rested Jays in good position for the ALCS.

Watching these offensively challenged teams struggle to score more than 1 or 2 runs is sad.

We've actually been blessed in that regard over the last 15 years. Got Bautista and were able to build a decent offensive team around him most years. Then after that era we got Vladdy and offense has been mostly good since then in this era. Granted not all those teams have been competitive every season, but at least the games aren't super boring to watch.
