Man did Bautista really show up. He was a RISP every time up. If Donaldson was the same they would have won this series.. but it was fun. Heart rate is way down now.

 

[Lambtron]

It's hard not to feel good for David Glass. That guy wasn't able to show his face in KC for so long, but now he's got back-to-back pennants and the city just did a complete 180 with him.

lol, no. He's a fucking asshole.

 

[jmaine_ph]

#LGM🍎 That is all.

 

[rinse82]

Our kids got some important experience they can use next year.

Entire offense essentially coming back, full year of Stroman, this is a good team.

Be interesting to see what we do with the rotation and bullpen. I feel like Rogers has to double-down on this, seeing what happened from August onwards here.

 

[Tragicomedy]

These two teams were about as evenly matched as possible. This series was bonkers, and this last game was basically a straight heart attack.

I'm stoked about this World Series. Some scary pitchers taking the mound for the Mets, against the best contact team in baseball. It's going to be great.

BWAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Royals in 6.

Trading away Grinke feels like it was just yesterday. People were so pissed about that. Now look at what has come of the guys we got for him:

The 2014 ALCS MVP Lorenzo Cain
The 2015 ALCS MVP Alcides Escobar

Praise be to the Brewers. Thanks bros!

 

[criesofthepast]

Price already taking in "they" about the Jays. He ain't coming back.

No "we" in this brah.

He's been doing that since he got here. It's weird. He says "we" every so often.

Kids = the pitchers? The batters are old as fuck

Of course.

I think he knows they aren't gonna pony up that $220 million.

Easy to laugh when your overpaid team is on the golf course and/or the steroid clinic.

 

[Xaero Gravity]

it hurt more than i thought it would

I know the feeling.

Price is waiting for the 210M+ offers to roll in.

To be honest, I don't honestly think he will be back. Dodgers or Cubs are most likely.

 

[orochi91]

I think he knows they aren't gonna pony up that $220 million.

He certainly has proven to be worthless in Playoff games, so I hope his asking price takes a hit.

Dude's consistently proven to be shit when it matters most.

 

[iBeleaf]

Man the umps have to much control in the game. One of the reason why i perfer hockey more.
Blue jays didn't do themselves any favour they couldnt hit RISP at all.

Man, that trade and the Yuniesky Betancourt signing actually had people perplexed everywhere that Dayton wasn't fired yet. Hell, even the James Shields trade was hated. No GM other than Bill Bavasi took more heat in the past 10 or so years than Moore.

It won't.

Agreed. Would rather spend that money on our arms and a starter who isn't so easily rattled.

 

[Ninja Scooter]

Yeah total shit. If the Blue Jays don't completely fold with RISP tonight, he probably cruises to a 5-3 win and all of a sudden the narrative is different, even if nothing about his individual performance changes. The guy is one of the 5 best pitchers in baseball, and well worth whatever giant contract he's going to sign, but let's judge him on a SSS of a couple of starts over the larger resume of production. He and Clayton Kershaw should be making the league minimum.

It won't and it shouldn't.

 

[zroid]

i don't know why people are hating on Donaldson? his OPS in the postseason was around 1.000, and that out he made in the 6th inning (?) with RISP was tied for his hardest hit ball of the year

your disappointment with his performance is misplaced

 

[Lexxism]

I doubt about that. He will still get that 200m+ money

 

[Cormano]

Looking forward to the Mets. Two great teams going at it.

Lol, thats great.

So excited to see our boys at the World Series.

And Bautista can fuck off.

 

[JDHarbs]

Mets rotation scares me, but they haven't played at this stage before. The Royals have. It's going to be a good series.

 

[Dominican Power]

Man please, act like The Yankees doesn't subside the league. Without The Yankees the league is a lot poorer.

 

[The Elite]

Price wasn't worthless tonight. He kept us in it and the Jays could not score. Bautista can't be our only offence.

 

[whitehawk]

When can we call replays on pitches? UMPs ruin this game, screw tradition. It's only baseball where they have this much influence.

I for one hate him because he's a rat faced douche.

Well NY does seem like the place where over places players go to enjoy an early retirement. So much payroll for so much mediocrity.

 

[MetalFearSolid]

. Jays fans really feeling it.

 

[orochi91]

It won't.

It won't and it shouldn't.

I doubt about that. He will still get that 200m+ money

Suppose we'll have to see.

I predict he won't be getting anything at $200 million, nor that 7+ year contract.

Yeah total shit. He and Clayton Kershaw should be making the league minimum.

Exactly :3

 

[pestul]

Nah. Too controversial with differing strike zones for every player.

Edit: I'd love to see an alternate universe time line where that 2-1 pitch to Revere is called ball 3 though.

 

[Syrinx]

There will never be replay for balls/strikes, would be a disaster. Keep your hope with robot umps.

 

[cashman]

Pitchers don't usually get the years that hitters do, but his AAV will definitely be 25mil+

 

[zroid]

well that's certainly more reasonable than criticizing him for not performing!

 

[outunderthestars]

. Jays fans really feeling it.

Can't really hate on kids. If the Jays could lose because of a single call then they didn't deserve the pennant.

Can we please not turn those kids into Bartman2.0.

 

[orochi91]

. Jays fans really feeling it.

Can't really blame him, fans will be fans.

Would have probably done the same if I were there.

 

[Duane Cunningham]

If I ever meet that guy in real life, he's getting drinks on me!

 

[The Elite]

Just saw another replay and still think it shouldn't be a homer. It's all done now but this guy is going to be Canada's Bartman.

 

[outunderthestars]

As a Jays fan, I would do the same.

I can't hate on Maier 2.0, he's got a really nice beard :3

 

[cashman]

He's the new Meier not Bartman

 

[Duane Cunningham]

He's not Bartman 2.0, he the opposite of Bartman. He's Bizarro World Bartman!

 

[Malo]

There's no way this doesn't go at least 6 with the Royals propensity to come back no matter the score.


I just need a clever title! :3
