Series Thread: ALDS: Texas Rangers vs. Toronto Blue Jays

[molsaniceman]

They only have themselves to blame

what team doesnt?

 

[DJ]

you guys cheering for Astros or Royals?

Royals!!!!!

 

[DJ]

Fuckin' Rangers. They are going to lose but at least they covered the over (8).

 

[Bloody Brian Burke]

It's the same type of situation as a ball that was called foul (and dead) being overturned and called fair on replay. They put the runners where they think they "would" have been, and the Jays had zero shot at Odor even if they'd played that like it was live. Sorry, but you're wrong on this one.

Except that's a reviewable play, whereas a dead ball being reversed live is unprecedented.

LOL. Atleast there's that!

 

[droider]

yeah very true... Hamels didn't perform tonight either...Hamilton certainly didn't either

what do you mean? Hamels really performed as well as possible considering the circumstances.

 

[DJ]

I LOL at people that say Hamels didn't perform.

3 errors? That's on the defense.

 

[Hambombs]

If rangers can't magically come back I'm rooting for the cubs

Yeah he's always been an asshole. Easy guy to dislike and always complain about the strike zone

I love Bautista for that bat flip.

 

[mr.hockey4242]

Hamels was fantastic today

 

[molsaniceman]

elvis dont look happy

 

[Tubbs1518]

the difference with Bats is that he launched his bat across the catcher's body and towards the Rangers' dugout. he also stood and watched it for quite a long time.

a flip within his side of the batters box would've been fine for a huge moment like that, but Bats went over the top there IMO. just saying that things like that usually get you plunked next time.. whenever that may be.

Nah not over the top at all. It was a thing of beauty.

My plan B as well.

 

[bksballer89]

My plan B as well.

I believe I picked the Cubs to win it all before the playoffs began.

 

[Hambombs]

My plan B as well.

Lol you should be excited right now

Ballsy. How much?

 

[Bloody Brian Burke]

Lol you should be excited right now

I can't breathe to be honest. It's been 11 years since a Toronto team won a playoff series and after what happened to the Leafs in 2013 I take nothing for granted.

 

[droider]

Gibbons made the right call with Stroman, have to give him some credit for that. Stroman came up huge.

Will Price pitch game 1 of the ALCS with Estrada moving up to 2?

yes, I like the Cubs. If the Astros cant get in (and they are long shot anyway) I'll be pulling for Cubs.
