Jays only 4 games out of 3rd place

[steveringo]

Nice run by Toronto. One more win and every team will be at or above .500...

Is the AL East still wide open?

At this stage I'd say its still pretty open, though I don't expect it to continue. I don't think they'll be as bad as they were but they won't keep winning like this either.

Well obviously they won't continue to win every game they play lol.


The thing to watch is when they finally lose if they continue to win series and stay in the race. It's very possible if Josh Johnson gets back to form and Dickey.

Toronto never loses a game again, they will be the miami heat. You heard it here first.

In an attempt to be a bit more inclusive, I see the White Sox are only 5 games out of 3rd in the A.L Central. And, unlike the Jays, most MLB talking heads are saying they are done for this year, and will soon become sellers. Funny how just 1 game can make this big a difference.

The Angels are in 3rd place in the A.L west, with a losing record.

Same for the Phillies in the N.L East, who, at the same time, are only 8 games out of 1st there.

The N.L Central - Meh. 3 really good teams will fight for first, while 2 will fight for last.

And, last but not least, there is the N.L West, where 4 of the 5 teams in the division are within 3 games of first.

I think the White Sox are being written off because it is pretty clear that they are terrible. 4.5 behind the Twins now too.

Shoot, they're going to lose tomorrow night.

Well....

Toronto is 5 back of a wild card spot... Chicago is 10.5 back.

That is not 1 game.

That is a big difference.

if the Red Sox keep on throwing out Andrew Bailey then yes the red sox will fall

lol

Yeah...gonna have to eat crow bout that. Dirt was right bout him. Sucks balls

Should be a good series this weekend for the O's v Jays. I'm taking the over

 

[fordman84]

Lots of ALEast divisional play coming up. If the Jays stay hot they can really make up ground. Hope they didn't blow their big win streak of the season on picking up just a couple of games.

Dirt was also the one that said it was the correct move to put Bailey in a one run game even though doubront only had thrown 93 pitches and could have had a cgso. That didn't work either.

The worst part last night was knowing Bailey was going to blow it even before he walked vmart.

At least he was efficient about it.

I fear a closer-by-committee is coming to Boston....

There is no way they re-acquire Papelbon.

Is there?

I really thought he just stumbled a little since the DL stint but he really is in trouble... i have what is wrong with him!

Why would he want to go back? They had a chance to keep him, and passed. If he has any principles, he would tell them to pound sand. However, $$ has a way of trumping principles, so....?

The Red Sox aren't going to offer a buttload of cash for him. Won't happen. Papelbon is not coming back to Boston.

 

[raptorlife4]

Biggest stretch of the year for the Jays. Next 10 vs al East

Reyes should be back Monday/Tuesday

 

[Taz_Hokie]

Looking forward to a great series. Let's go O's!!

Buck gets tossed!! Don't see that very often.
