Wow, we're lucky to avoid Salazar and Carrasco.

Holy ****, we have terrible luck that we have to face a now-good Bauer, Tomlin and Kluber.

Hopefully we can take 2 of 3 here or get at least one, gotta maintain that lead on the Trashbirds. Not to mention the Red Sox are now second in the division after this past series and winning 6 straight.

Somehow grabbing 2 of 3 in this series would be amazing going into next week's cakewalk schedule.

We face the angels and twins at home. I expect to win atleast 5 out of 6 games or go full sweep and win all 6

There are no cake walk schedules in MLB. Even the worst teams win 4 out of every 10 games.

Playoff preview. Time to destroy the LeBrons and their playoff hopes

Blue Jays vs Tomlin is a recipe to break our "10 HR in a game" record.

Or a recipe to break 27 strikeouts in a game record. :wink:

They just took it. And people thought our relief pitching is a tire fire.

Sweet, Tigers won 4-3... hopefully Liriano holds it together tomorrow

I expect nothing less than a sweep. Boston is just too hot right now and Baltimore is like an annoying mosquito you cannot kill.

We should temper our expectations a little bit lol. Cleveland is playing great ball right now. Their offense is hot and their pitching is solid. Not to mention that they've played great at home. Considering that two of our bottom three starters will be pitching in this series, I'd be happy with winning two out of three. Next week gets a bit easier with three against the Angels and three against the Twins at home. I'm hoping we win 4 of those 6 at least.

Our bats have been whiffing a lot and I wouldn't be surprised if the Hays break the three game series SO record too. Hope they can manage to win the games though!

Well, my expectation is 162-0 for the Jays, but they keep disappointing me season after season.

Lol no Donaldson or Tulo today...Goins and Barney are starting...yeah ..

jaymeister15 · Post #17 » by **jaymeister15** » Fri Aug 19, 2016 8:26 pm

Easily the ugliest lineup of the year, and with Liriano on the mound, not exactly expecting a win tonight. But, anything can happen I guess.

Gibby doing his Popovitch impression.

Post #19 » by **JaysRule15** » Fri Aug 19, 2016 8:34 pm

I guess that Gibby figured that it would be a loss with Liriano starting anyway, so he decided to give the regulars another day off lol.

No Tulo, no Donaldson, no Pillar, no Bautista and Liriano pitching. I think I'll pass.
