Oops, wonder if my powers will work on other guys...or the Flames, lol.

I’m loving the Barger show right now. Guy hits the ball so hard. And he’s a lefty!!

[Karl]

Nice. Keep tacking on those extra runs so we don't need to see Hoffman struggle to close it out.

[Karl]

why keep the bunt on with 2 strikes??? What the heck?

[Karl]

Good. More runs. Hopefully no Hoffman.

[flamingred89]

Love the Jays smelling blood at the end and tacking on all those runs.

[BowRiverBruinsRule]

Maybe the Jays will be like the Oilers. And, I loathe the Oilers.

[Hockey]

So if I know this Blue Jays team this year they will get swept by the Phillies scoring 4 runs on 11 hits in 3 games

[Samonadreau]

5 in a row and 1 back of a wildcard spot. Nice.

I think the next 5 series are against good playoff teams so gotta keep the bats going.

Also no way they can put Santander back into the mix the way the bats are flowing. I actually think as soon as he came out the bats caught fire.

HR in 3 straight games after this post.
Now do Santander.

As soon as they faced Athletic's pitching the bats caught fire.

Going to be a tough stretch for the next few series.

It probably depends on how his return lines up with Varsho's injury timeline. I'm hoping that if the bats keep this up they can provide enough protection for him to get some dead red fastballs from time to time. At some point he's bound to run into one.

Yeah. Next two weeks all 4 teams they're playing are currently holding playoff spots. If they can goo 500 the next two weeks that would be a big win.

And then the next 8 series up to the all-star break have only two playoff teams, so they have a real chance to make a run there. Those eight series have quite a few weaker teams (2x white sox, angels, As), so if they can stay afloat the next two weeks hopefully they can do some damage before the break.

I have zero confidence in Francis.

[flamingred89]

Oof

[KelVarnsen]

Off to a wonderful start

Stacked Phillies against Bowden in DFS. No Turner though

[flamingred89]

God damn. This is one heck of a way to end a streak. They even dodged Wheeler. But you can't avoid the suckiness of Francis.

[Inferno]

They should have someone warming up in the bullpen before Francis even throws his first pitch.

I used to do that with Dickey on MLB The Show and would pull him right away if he sucked.
