  1. Jays win, but so did every other AL East team except the Yankees, who only lost because they were playing Tampa. This division is @#$^#$ insane.
  2. I think they've lost the division already. They're lucky there are 4 wild card teams. Crazy to think that the entire American League east could make the playoffs.
  3. Compared to the Rays schedule so far this is ridiculous. Sounds stupid this early, but if the Jays want to win the division they just can't be winning series they have to sweep series' against below 500 teams. Edit: Tied for 5th best record in the entire major leagues....a distant 3rd in their own division.
  4. Not sure it matters, to be honest. He hasn't earned a greater chance on the Canucks and if it takes an AHL stint to work on his game in order to have the tools to do more with his next chance then that's the way it has to be. If he'd rather go to the KHL rather than truly prep for a NHL career, then that's on him, not the organization. Same feelings with waiver exempt status. If the Canucks decide the AHL is what's best for his development and another team wants to take a chance? Well, I guess you take the risk, because the way things are now, he's not doing enough at the NHL level and I don't see him getting better doing the same thing. The trade was a worthy gamble, but looks like it won't pan out.
  5. Apparently the AL east has a 750 winning pct against teams outside their division
  6. Gotta love the AL east. Jays have the 5th best record in the AL....but are 4th in their division.
  7. My guess is Pettersson and E. Pettersson. I was too young to remember what the Canucks did when they had to Greg Adams'.
  8. My first thought was, "Huh, he can't sign until July 1st". This makes way more sense.
  9. The Rays don't need to apologize for their schedule so far, but the Blue Jays were the toughest opponent for them by a country mile this year.
  10. This would be a perfect day for Manoah's first dominant start of the season.
  11. We can call it the Gaudreau Effect...the NHL's version of the Butterfly Effect
  12. It goes without saying this series will be super interesting. 12 and 0 is 12 and 0, but the Rays schedule so far has been Charmin soft.
  13. Fine and dandy if we were paired with the Dallas Stars, but what if we were paired with the Flames or the Leafs?
  14. Lol, a college player hit for the cycle and pitched a no-hitter in the same game....and who said baseball was a team sport. https://www.mlb.com/news/brady-ware-throws-no-hitter-hits-for-cycle-in-same-game?t=mlb-draft-coverage
  15. Everything was turning up Angels, it seemed, as far as breaks were concerned. Bo just flipped that with one swing of the bat. Hopefully the bullpen can close it out now.
  16. Varsho is wracking up the K's early. Whiffing in almost half of his at bats
  17. I haven't been able to watch the last 2 games, but is Vladdy getting many pitches to hit? I'm wondering if there is enough power in the line up now....
  18. This trade will be loved by the analytics darlings out there. Not sure if it passes the eye test though. Like all trades, time will tell.
  19. I wonder if Nate Pearson can fill that need for high end velocity. It's the most hope I have had for him in a while.
