Re: 6/2 - 6/8 Game Discussion Thread

Man, the Jays/Tigers game was going at a great clip then the 9th inning happened. It took just about an hour to get one inning complete SMH.

Loved how the Detroit fans just filed out of the stadium after Lawrie's HR too

And then Jays almost blew the game! Delabar of all guys, which was a surprise. Kinda strange to see though. This year he has more ground ball outs,a lower whip,lower batters average yet a higher ERA. Most likely just cause of location. Last year he was averaging well over a strikeout per inning, this year it's not even 1 strikeout an inning.

This whole season has been crazy so far. Jays have more wins than all but 1 playoff team from last season. Can't blame fans for being excited. This is the best they've done compared to rest of their division, in over 20 years!

Wow. 2 game sweep in Atlanta. I was just hoping for a split.

Iwakuma has been such a boss since last season. Arguably better than Felix in the same time.

Wow. Dickey walked the bases fill with no outs, and Aaron Loup came in and got a strikeout, and two pop outs to keep anyone from scoring.

Padres won today 3-2 on 1 hit. The one hit was a bunt single.

Crazy the streak Jays going on. This time last month,everyone was just like "lol,same old Blue Jays"(bad pitching,blown leads late in game and so on), and in that month since,team has gone crazy. Even beating Tigers in a series for first time in 5 years!

Recently read some rumors that Royals Prospect Bubba Starling could end up going back to school to play football next year if he has a bad season in the minors again. Rumors are Notre Dame could be the school that lands him if he decides to go that route. Wait and see at this point.

I see the Marlins record and then I get sad again about Fernandez being hurt

Don't feel too bad. I think the Marlins are still a year or two away from making REAL noise.

Jays are going crazy right now. At this point,they've set themselves up for 1 of 2 scenarios. Either it'll be a collapse worse than the Leafs, or it'll be an insanely huge playoff surprise like the Raptors!

Still can't believe that they beat the Tigers, in Detroit,with Verlander pitching,and Encarnacion not playing!

Last time the Jays swept the Tigers in Detroit....It was during the Tigers worst season ever(2003)!

Oh I certainly agree as Yelich and the young pitchers still can get better. Not to mention Andrew Heaney and Colin moran still in the minors. Just would have been nice to possibly compete for a wild card spot, but I guess I'll take already surpassing half of last years win total lol

Rangers finally scratched out a win last night after blowing a 5-0 lead. They gave up a lot of silly runs in that series against the Orioles.

12 up, 12 down for Eovaldi against the Cubs so far.

It's so obvious Lance Lynn has pine tar on the bill of his cap it's nearly Pinieda-esque. At least put it on the bottom where the HD cameras won't see it.
