Series Thread: Jays @ Mariners | July 27-29

wow, this entire team has choked on numerous occasions lately.

fixed.

I feel like the Jays are trying to set the record for most last inning losses.

Downs is the new BJ. Cito needs to use Frasor more and put downs as the setup man. you know what? at this point even league would be better than Downs. How many games has Downs blown lately? 4? 5?

So....looks like we'll see Doc take the hill today. Good stuff, for sure.

[LittleOzzy]

A day game? Damn I just tuned in.

[zilby]

bahhhhhhhhhh. can't win one for doc, even when it may be the final game for him as a Jay. it sucks but i might so to the game on sunday.

[RapsFanInVA]

hey another 1 run loss! Do the Jays have to most 1 run/last inning losses?

[Mustard_Tiger]

They are 11-20 in one-run games, which is by far the worst mark in the league. That's just an incredible amount of bad luck.

In July, they've scored 103 runs, allowed 96, and are still only 8-15. It's quite ridiculous.

Honestly, the games are secondary for me right now. It's all about the deadline.

Oh, and the late night Jays talks. Those are pretty entertaining too.

It's not that ridiculous to me because it's exactly what I've come to expect from the Jays. They either blow leads late, or fold in clutch hitting situations. I honestly can't recall them coming from behind to win late in the game or having a walk off hit.

They did it a lot early in the season when they were getting lucky.

i think it does have a lot to do with bad luck. the pitching staff has been taken down severely by injury, and the jays have lost a ton of close games this year.

if the jays can actually not have bad luck, they can do well.

and, also get a new GM.
