God damn that was a frustrating game.
I really have not been impressed with the Cleveland hitters at all. Lindor and Chisenhall have been alright but other than that they've been almost as pathetic as the Jays hitters.
The Jays pitching has been more than fine. I thought Biagini, again, did a wonderful job.
It's just our main guys, Donaldson, EE, Tulo and Bautista need to be so much better. (caveat: Donaldson has been great, probably should be left off that list).
A 2-0 lead in a series is certainly not insurmountable. They have to to win on Monday though. Please god win.
Going back to the regular season the Indians have won 8 in a row now. The baseball gods of probability are on the Jays side in my opinion.

Cleveland is hot. Jays are not.
Miller was the best pitcher this year and is showing us why. Filthy

I know it's easy to feel pretty down but the Jays are far from out of this series.
I think going back to the Rogers Centre is going to be good for the Jays. Get the insane Toronto fans behind them and I feel the bats are going to come around.
Go Jays!

I love you guys and your optimism.
I don't have it anymore. It's been beaten out of me over the years when it comes to sports.
I guess that's why I don't have a custom user title like you haha
I will be shocked if the Jays win this series now.

Without trying to sound too dramatic, Monday - although not literally, is a must must win.

Bautista's legacy won't be defined by this series, either way.
I'm not a huge fan of Jose. Never have been. But the dude has been a monster for this organization, including hitting arguably the 2nd biggest home run in franchise history.
Simmons' article reeks of him dancing, prematurely, on Jose's Jays grave.

Is Bautista really the "most hated man in baseball"? I still don't understand the hatred for Bautista. He's a great story. Toiled as a utility guy, played on 4 different teams in one season, and worked his ass off to become the player he is today. Yet Big Papi is this big cozy teddy bear that everyone loves even though he failed a drug test in 2003.
Anyways. I think the Jays are set for a monster game tomorrow.
Like I mentioned before, the baseball gods of probability are not on Clevelands side.

Bautista is far from the most hated man. Simmonds just writing garbage. Why do we have such bad journalists in this country?
Bruce Arthur might be the only print guy considered good.

Yeah you are right. I hadn't given it much thought when I made that comment.
I'd probably go:
1. Carter
2. Alomar
3. Sprague
4. JB
5. EE

Who is the most hated man in baseball now?
Personally I can't stand Bryce Harper.

A-Rod WAS the most hated man in baseball.
Maybe Joey Votto?

I love JB and don't get the hate. I consider his overt display of emotions to be a positive showing he cares about winning.
