I predict Cubs win tonight 4-2.

 

[XiaNaphryz]

My prediction: After Cleveland wins their first playoff series, they end up playing Toronto in a decently competitive series. They go ahead 2-0 with ease before letting Toronto even the series at 2-2 making them sweat a bit. They recover and win the series 4-2 to go to the World Series.

There they meet the Giants, a Bay Area team who recently won the championship and who seem preordained by everyone to win it again. Cleveland quickly finds itself down 3-1 with Bumgarner set to pitch game 5 for the series and EYBS seems to strike again. However, during a night in the town a drunken Bumgarner gets into a scuffle with a heckler and kicks him in the nuts, but strains his hamstring in the process and knocks himself out of commission for game 5. Cleveland wins games 5 and 6 and is poised for the comeback, but Bumgarner heals just in time to pitch the pivotal game 7 for all the marbles. He throws an absolute gem, as expected, but behind a bevy of starters and Miller the Indians keep up with him and pull ahead in the late innings. Their comeback is complete when Rajai Davis robs Conor Gillapsie of a go-ahead homer in the 9th to seal the victory and give the Indians their first world series in, I don't know, who cares, it was a long time ago.

Lebron James is named World Series MVP.

I thought we were bros.

will at least progressive field was packed again, been awhile

 

[NameGenerated]

Michael A. Taylor somehow made the roster for this series against the Dodgers.

Absolutely Triggered

 

[Line_HTX]

Raps in 7

Raptors should've won the upset.

;P

 

[wbsmcs]

I feel like Darvish is going to strike out 10+ today. Either the Jays hit some solo shots and Happ + Grilli/Osuna are lights out, or the Jays are going to lose a boring one 4-1.

 

[bonesmccoy]

I don't think the Jays have had back to back games where they've hit well even once this season.

Rags take this one.

 

[The Elite]

This will be a closer game but Happ will keep the Jays in it.

 

[Line_HTX]

Is this going to get rained out? I saw a tarp out and it doesn't look good with less than 90 minutes to go.

Hopefully a rain delay so I can get home and watch it.

Almora over Szczur for the DS is surprising.

 

[Grover Cleveland]

So we need David Price to not suck in the postseason (lol) or we're stuck looking at a Clay Buchholz must-win Game 3...

 

[Hobbun]

Almora over Szczur for the DS is surprising.

Where Szczur has been good off the bench and good at defense, Almora is an exceptional defender and almost as good, if not as good, at the plate.

I think it was a good choice.

 

[BFIB]

Cards got rolled up.

Not only got rolled up, got rolled up in Owen Hart fashion after breaking Austin's neck.

 

[Eleuin]

go jays, hit ball

fuck the sox

Right knee irritation, so at least not the shoulder.

[Line_HTX]

Make Darvish like Hamels please.

 

[Lexxism]

How hard is the rain? Definitely hard enough to push it at 6pm game time.

 

[kris.]

darvish bout to pitch a gem

pls

 

[The Elite]

I think it's supposed to clear up in the afternoon either way. I saw 5pm on Accu Weather. So maybe you get your wish.

 

[Robert807]

Is there a rain delay, I sure hope so. I wanna drink beer and watch this game. I can't do that if game starts at 1, 5 be a better time for the game. 7 would be perfect

Dang no rain delay,
Go Jays go

 

[cashman]

There's no delay

 

[BigJonsson]

Uhhhh

Soulja Boy? Really Texas?

 

[The Elite]

God damn't. Rain rain don't go away!

 

[The Elite]

FYI. Sportsnet Now has a 7-Day trial and 40% off for students for those of you stuck at work in Canuckistan.

 

[Sanjuro]

Oh shit. The second game is today? I'm so old, I almost missed that info.

 

[The Elite]

No need to swing out of your shoes. Just wait on the right pitch.

 

[Beckx]

Yu know it

 

[cashman]

Uhhhh

Soulja Boy? Really Texas?

Yuuuu

 

[Line_HTX]

Fucking Darvish warming up to that song, DansGame

 

[Chase17]

Nintendo and JBJ swapping spots in line up for game 2

 

[Beckx]

Dear Bucs management

Fuck you for not spending to keep Happ

 

[thefro]

Yeah, he's more of a contact hitter and plays elite D. I like the move as well.

 

[BigJonsson]

TULO!

 

[PROh1bited]

TULO!!!!

 

[The Elite]

Jays with a lot of Texas like swings early.

HOMERUN!!! TULO ON FIRE!!!!!!

 

[Ricker]

Boom...TULO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Silver Arrows]

Tulo is a fucking monster.

 

[eyeless]

2 LO bb

 

[PROh1bited]

Tulo is a fucking monster.

And don't forget that people said they wanted Barney to start over him earlier in the season.

 

[Beckx]

Boo hiss

 

[cashman]

Shit

 

[Silver Arrows]

And don't forget that people said they wanted Barney to start over him earlier in the season.

It's incredibly stupid because not only is Tulo a steady defender, but can also pop with the bat like you just saw.

 

[PROh1bited]

It's like they didn't realize what he had done in Colorado during his career.

 

[Silver Arrows]

Exactly.

Tulo wants a ring.

 

[IceBringer]

And don't forget that people said they wanted Barney to start over him earlier in the season.

Wait people actually wanted Barney over Tulo? That's insane. Tulo's a beast when he stays healthy

 

[lowhighkang_LHK]

2-LO!!

 

[Line_HTX]

Troy is a pretty good player.
