  1. Just got back home an hour ago... busy atm, will post later on in day .....man, was that ever epic....
  2. "Brady is a system QB" "Anyone can do what he does under Belichick" "Pats won't miss a beat without him"
  3. I thought that too. He does it once every here and there. ...Buster Posey just missed tying the game. Still giving the Giants a chance. One heck of a player.
  4. And right as I say that Baez hits a solo HR in the bottom of the 8th. Huge hit. Both pitchers were looking untouchable.
  5. Cueto out here just dealing! ...his release is so dirty. Makes it nearly impossible for batters to pick up on. One pitch will be normal delivery, the other hesitation, the next double hesitation, and the one after will be out of his hand before the batter has a chance to get fully in his stance. Giants got a steal in him. 1+ year younger than Price. Price = $31M per, Cueto = $21M. Looking back at it now, if you could do redo's, would rather the Jays have traded for Cueto. Would most likely have signed too since only reason Price wasn't signed was because he broke the bank. Cueto is way more reasonable (Jays were said to be capping off at ~$20M annually) and he's just as efficient, if not better if you ask most. Loved when we got Price and what it led to and all, don't regret it one bit, just speaking hypothetically and in hindsight. ...imagine having Cueto/Estrada/Sanchez/Happ/Stroman as your rotation lol
  6. Tell me about it hahaha. I still can't wrap my head around the decision. So much risk for no apparent reason. I wouldn't mind going to the bullpen that early if we had let's say Benoit and a fully healthy Osuna but even then, it would be premature to hand the game over to the bullpen for 4 innings. In this case, we had a partially healthy Osuna and no Benoit. Why the hell did he expect them to handle 4 innings like it'd be no biggie rofl. ...I get he wants to get those guys some action so they don't get cold but if Gibby could just have held on for 1 more inning, things would have unfolded so much smoother. 3 innings compared to 4 is night and day difference considering the condition of the pitchers and the circumstance. Happ easy had an inning more in him. Pitch count wasn't high at all. Easing Osuna into action was the biggest concern and he should have been out the 9th and nothing but the 9th. Yanking Happ early, he had to come in the 8th and the pressure was essentially all on Osuna to save the day. What happens if Texas takes the lead or ties the game? You give it to Loup or Tepera? Lmao, would have been disastrous. Osuna had to throw 30 pitches, essentially 3x more than he should have. Gibby should be fortunate af Osuna got the job done. All because of over managing and doing too much when he really should have left Happ in there and let things unfold on their own. Very happy we got the win tho. I just never want to see that again, nearly gave me a heart attack
  7. Yep, very much. Scary looking team. They do a little bit of everything. Can win games in numerous ways. ...still would prefer them over Boston. Just because Boston seems to have the Jays number and know them all too well. Even if the Jays are up 8-0, Boston somehow finds a way back lol. Would be such an uneasy searies.
  8. Price done. 4 1/3 innings. ...not gonna help his playoff resumé with that lol
