muddler Posted September 14, 2015 Report Posted September 14, 2015 I amazes me how these players can remain healthy after 140+ games. Injuries will happen, that's why expanded rosters are used. There is a good chance that Troy might be back in 2-3 weeks. The Jays are playing amazingly. 3 out of 4, I'll take that any day. The second game on Saturday was my favourite. By the 8th inning or so the loudest cheer picked up by the microphones was "Go Jays Go" and the loudest loudest baseball sound was the ball hitting the pitches glove from the catcher., much to the dismay of the 4 or 5 NY fans left behind home plate. Love it. Yeah, can't stand the Yankees. All we have to do is control our own destiny and not worry about who's behind us. Go Jays Go!. muddler
Weeds Posted September 14, 2015 Report Posted September 14, 2015 I'm really liking Revere in the lead off spot. Hope they keep him there next year. Seems like a long time since they had an everyday player in that spot who can hit for average with good wheels.
Acountdeleted Posted September 15, 2015 Report Posted September 15, 2015 My dad made a really good point with Revere. He's a great leadoff man and gets on base lots. It'd be nice to see him steal a base, but every time he gets on it seems that Donaldson follows up with a homerun. Not that anyone is complaining.
FloatnFly Posted September 15, 2015 Report Posted September 15, 2015 why risk stealing a base and being thrown out when you have josh, jose and edwin following you, a hit and run maybe useful, score from first on a single with his speed
dave524 Posted September 26, 2015 Report Posted September 26, 2015 Jays are putting on a show, 5 runs in the first
davey buoy Posted September 26, 2015 Report Posted September 26, 2015 They sure are,I don't even mind working around their schedule either .
ccmtcanada Posted September 26, 2015 Report Posted September 26, 2015 Made it interesting didn't they????
muddler Posted September 26, 2015 Report Posted September 26, 2015 A win is a win is a win. Win ugly, or pretty, it's still a win. No matter how they win, I'll take it. September or October. The real nice thing is is that the Jays are unpredictable. It seems when the bats are cool, their pitching is hot and when the pitching is cool their hitting is hot. And some days both are hot. On those rare occasions both are cold. That's 3 out of 4 times that they can win. I'll take that in October. muddler
FloatnFly Posted September 27, 2015 Report Posted September 27, 2015 im confused with the revolving door from the bullpen today, was at work and was getting updates with the score app.....was there really a need to run 7 releif pitchers from the 6th to the 9th? when you're up 9-5
John Bacon Posted September 27, 2015 Report Posted September 27, 2015 Jays now tide for first in the American League. Hopefully they pull ahead; that should give them an advantage in the playoffs. im confused with the revolving door from the bullpen today, was at work and was getting updates with the score app.....was there really a need to run 7 releif pitchers from the 6th to the 9th? when you're up 9-5 They have a lot of September callups with them right now. Might as well use them.

fishing n autograph Posted September 27, 2015 Report Posted September 27, 2015 They all got into trouble that's why he used so many
hutch4113 Posted September 27, 2015 Report Posted September 27, 2015 There were a number of relievers that needed work. Hendricks had not pitched in 4 days. Hawkins - think it has been a week. Tepara - maybe a week and 1/2 (and it showed). Gibbons is getting an idea of who he can rely on, and who he can't. Did make it a litte hairy, but I would rather find out now, then in the playoffs.
Acountdeleted Posted September 28, 2015 Report Posted September 28, 2015 Baseball games don't end. Josh Donaldson ends baseball games. I started listening to that one when they were down 4-1. Can't believe they came back to win it. Something special is continuing to happen this year
John Bacon Posted September 28, 2015 Report Posted September 28, 2015 And the Royals loss gives them sole position of the first in the American League.
AKRISONER Posted September 28, 2015 Author Report Posted September 28, 2015 this team is literally bringing chills to my spine with every game, something magical is definitely happening.
FloatnFly Posted September 28, 2015 Report Posted September 28, 2015 And the Royals loss gives them sole position of the first in the American League. they are tied for first
ccmtcanada Posted September 28, 2015 Report Posted September 28, 2015 they are tied for first True....but in the event of identical records, Jays get home field advantage because we won the season series against them.
netminder Posted September 28, 2015 Report Posted September 28, 2015 This is a lot of fun to watch. I hope they can return the favour on the Orioles and clinch the division when in Baltimore.
Walleye72 Posted September 30, 2015 Report Posted September 30, 2015 Wow. Double Header in Baltimore tomorrow, Sept 30. Games at 4:05 and 7:35. Gonna watch both. I see chicken wings in my future. LOL!!
ccmtcanada Posted September 30, 2015 Report Posted September 30, 2015 With the Yankees losing tonight we only have to win one of those two games to clinch the east!! Will be watching for sure!!
Acountdeleted Posted September 30, 2015 Report Posted September 30, 2015 Lol. Unless the jays go 0-5 and the Yankees go 5-0 we will clinch the division.
muddler Posted September 30, 2015 Report Posted September 30, 2015 The way the Yanks are playing, the wildcard is NOT a sure thing. Now that would make my day. The Jays are in an excellent situation. Troy is almost ready to be back in the line up, the pitching is set and the Royals are struggling. I like Cecil's comment, ".... unless we're down like 15 runs, we're always in the game..." Bring it ON!
