Glad we went to that bullpen early! Not predictable at all…

[Randle McMurphy]

Eddings gifted them a run by not calling Strike 3 on Arozarena. So call it 2 runs allowed on 1 swing. And nothing since the 1st inning. Pulled in the 4th inning. With no bullpen behind him.

Your strategy has obviously been working.

Schneider has a chance to watch what the Tigers did with Skubal and his own game 1 blunder. he has enough information. He doesn’t learn. Fire Schneider.

Trey wasn’t good today no matter how you want to sugarcoat it with excuses

Schneider did nothing that nobody else wouldn’t have in that spot today and Trey isn’t Tarik Skubal

We know Trey isn’t Tarik. That’s not a reason to pull him.

Struggling all game with command and getting hit by the top of the order guys twice in the same game might be

[Michael Bradley]

So who's coming to Cancun with the rest of the team?

[greekman]

easy to blame vlad but at least he's playing. schneider/barger vs santander/bichette. that's the difference.

Max he was gonna pitch was 5 innings anyway given his pitch count

Was always gonna end this way

[Brinbe]

it's over

[ItsDanger]

What's surprising is all those times Greg Maddux was allowed to go through batting orders 3 times. What were they thinking?

[brwnman]

This game is on Vlad and both kinda are lol

lol gotta be the dumbest take of the series

He was up in big spots both games and has no hits lol

Biggest at bat tonight was first inning after tying it up was Varsho. Down the middle , he got a weak fly ball.

Last game, Varsho and Kirk left the most men on base. Kirk had poor blocking on a pitch in the dirt yday that cost the jays a run. And stolen bases galore that has been a problem for a while now.

Gimenez made a bad error where a slightly above average shortstop makes that play and probably Bo 9/10 times.

Schneider put in Varland at the wrong time. He got lucky against Julio.

Lots of blame to go around.

[Tripod]

Varsho probably shouldve caught that but it was absolutely smoked and had a xBA of like .770 lol wasnt an easy play but his routes today haven't been crisp

Varsho certainly hasn't made good reads tonight
But he has also.saved the team a ton of runs defensively thru the year.

Daaaa Jay's lose

[Randle McMurphy]

The Mariners played a 15 inning/5 hour game on Friday night, got drunk, flew to Toronto less than 24 hours later, and have outplayed the Jays for 2 straight games. Unreal.

They’re also just a much better team than us, offense is comparable and pitching is far better

Detroit choking that game may have cost a WS appearance

[greekman]

varsho springer and guerrero lets goo

[Tripod]

So who's coming to Cancun with the rest of the team?

Ortiz

[pingpongrac]

Varsho and Gimenez making defensive mistakes, Vladdy is suddenly only capable of hitting choppers 100 MPH into the ground, none of our pitchers are hitting their spots, Seattle is finding every open hole with soft contact while we’re smoking balls right into their outfielders’ gloves. We’re cooked.

I think it’s possible every sentence in this post may be a bad faith lie

Also gave up a ton of runs with his arm this year.

Jays bring in their best reliever when they are down 7-3. NIce.

Hopefully Varland is ready for Game 3. He'll be the first reliever they call, no doubt.

That he was one of the best pitchers who ever lived probably

David Ortiz’ lauding of Vladdy was never going to age well.

Varland will start game 4

Unless I guess we want to throw Scherzer in the elimination game, which would be absurd
