Well…the road trip sucked it was a big failure.

Good news is the next 9 games setup pretty well. The pitching matchups look pretty good or at least decent in the next 9 games.

We probably need to go 6-3 or better in this stretch. Seattle is throwing everything and everyone at us in the last 4 games. It is imperative that we be in a good position going into that last series.

Literally had the division in our hands if we could just play average baseball. Thought we had turned a corner in Toronto but this team's inconsistency is baffling to me. I know we're ahead of schedule, but this the most infuriating way to end a season.

---

If we can make the playoffs, even getting swept, would be an incredible year. So far ahead of schedule it's not even funny.

---

The bar was so freaking low after sweeping Toronto. The one thing they needed to do in Cleveland was not get swept and it freaking happened.

This team is 0-6 in the state of Ohio this year. What a horror show.

---

Exactly. ONE WIN in Cleveland would have been acceptable.

Im ready to hurt again today

Just remember...

I think we need to be 8-5 the rest of the way


2-1 vs BOS
2-1 vs SEA
2-1 @ LAA
2-2 @ SEA

Red Sox just got dominated by the jays and have mailed it in on their season. We need 2/3 at a minimum, but damn I want all 3 after the disgusting guardians series.

Would love for this team to get some last minute home cooking and go 5 out of 6 before hitting the road. Pitching matchups are favorable in nearly every single game this homestand. They're favorable in every series left except the 4 gamer im Seattle where they go right at us with Castillo, Kirby, Gilbert. We need to make our move before the 4 game set.

BEVO!

13 - 0

Also Sborz started his rehab assignment, striking out 3 in a scoreless inning.

That's because he is facing hitters that he should be pitching too--not major league batters

We were in Seattle this weekend and sat next to some other tourists who were blue Jays fans from Toronto. We bonded over rooting against the Mariners.

No telling how this will end up. Fanbases of nearly every team are going through incredible highs and lows.

Personally, I'm pretty annoyed at this point and tired of the rollercoaster. Our team is what it is. "You are what your record says you are". I won't predict anything, good or bad. Outside of Baltimore and Tampa, all of the other teams have exceeded the limits on what qualifies as "That's Baseball". "That's what baseball do."

I'll say this - winning has been less frustrating than the past 6 seasons. But losing key pieces of the team for the year or extended periods has been way more frustrating. I think we had a legit chance to win the Series if we had stayed healthy, so missing that chance really blows.

I'd be okay if deGrom was starting too

Let's add Scherzer, as well.

Can we have 2 starting pitchers in the same game?

We really need this win tonight, and the over all series.

Feel like we've been dipping a little bit in that with long relief, mid relief, set-up man, and closer Martin Perez

Good point. Don't forget Bradford.

Adolis is back tonight as well. Hitting 6th and playing RF.

Lineup of death. Need to give Monty some early run support

Yall beat me to it

Probably a long shot, but if Jung can come back and absolutely light it up to end the season, he could still be in ROY conversation.

Anyword from the Rangers ownership about the Rangers needing a new Stadium?

Looks to be that season, again:

Gotta strike while the iron's hot, mamma always said.

Boom

Semien goes yard on first pitch

Multiview on FuboTV is coming in clutch tonight

These MNF games are a crime to be on TV at the same time.

Sorry guys, peace out :P

Wrong thread

Better get some more runs. We watched this same game on Saturday.

You must be like me, when my kid goes to bed, about 15-20 minutes go by before I realize Bluey is still on.

Lineup has been lethargic since we left Canada.
