Side note: Daniel Norris battling thyroid cancer. Hope the best for him - a guy who really has his head on his shoulders.

This is the 4 or 5 year story about the "man in white" from what in recall at the time. Likely where this is all coming from.

The announcers have become comicly pro-Toronto for the last inning. Nothing about signs. Someone must have said something.

question...if you are the manager, do you put Pompey or Carrera in RF to protect this lead after the 7th? Bautista will be pissed, no doubt, but this is a must win game IMO.

No, I let it ride. Gotta hurt the bullpen as much as possible.

Stroman is not making guys swing and miss. They're still getting solid contact too.

Yeah I wouldn't pitch him any more than three times through the order. If he gets anyone on in the 6th, go the pen.

2 outs. Keep Stroman in until he next gets into trouble.

Stro definitely hasn't brought his 'A' game tonight, thankfully the offense brought theirs.

Now I'd pull Stroman. Only because of the solid contact. I hate the Jays' dealing of men at 1 and 3.

Is anyone even warming up? Stroman should be out now after that batter. You can't let starters flail in the playoffs. Stroman can't put anyone away even up 0-2.

Even with a 6 run lead this could be the turning point of the game here. Stro needs to get the job done.

9-4.

Get him outta there. Doesn't have his quality stuff. He's struggling.

Gibbons really F'd up not warming someone earlier. There was ample opportunity as well.
