Time for the back end of the rotation to win us a series. I feel a lot better about this team after the Royals sweep. Let's start padding that AL East lead!

Anxious to see if they can keep the ball rolling. Jays teams in the past few years haven't been able to string really long winning streaks together, and playing the O's gives them a really good chance to do just that.

It's time to put the lights out on the early success for the Orioles. They're a basement team in the AL East and it's time they start trending in that direction.

Wow. That's impressive. I definitely think the content merits a large audience though.

Thames still a bit of an adventure in left field.

Thames is such an awful defensive player. I'm ready for Snider to take his place.

Hopefully the thread title not being OriLOLs won't curse us for this series.

#BlueJays Alvarez just walked his second batter. It's just the third time in 14 starts that has happened.

Thames destroys one. That'll shut me up about him for a while.

I was just going to post that Thames annoys the crap out of me.

There it is, anyway.

Clearly that Thames homer was a result of the protection of having Jeff Mathis batting behind him

It looked like Thames helped that one out of the park. Tough play though, I'll cut him some slack.
