Lots of time left for the Jays to move up or down, as well as the Orioles.

But it's looking like a very plausible scenario is the Jays and O's in the one game playoff. There is no team I hate more in baseball and thus there is no scenario that sickens me more than that one does.

I take Osuna out now I think. You've already burned Benoit and Grilli two nights in a row with a full slate of work, and Osuna may be considered done tomorrow too with having even warmed up and entered the game (as well as pitched yesterday).

If there's a chance he pitches tomorrow. Pull him.
If there's no chance he pitches tomorrow anyways, keep him in.

Ha! I have to ask...why do you hate the Orioles so much?

I agree with that logic.

I guess he's not pitching tomorrow then.

There's been a lot of recent (not this season) animosity between the Jays and O's and a few of their central villains still play for them. Jones, O'Day, Showalter (manager). They irritate me so much more than any other team. They're a poor-man's Vancouver Canucks.

Boy is it nice not having to sweat a homer here thanks to the insurance in the top half.

I'm really glad this isn't the St. Louis Cardinals calibre Pujols we're dealing with anymore.

Two in a row!

3 games clear of Seattle and Detroit
4 games clear of Houston and the Yankees
Still tied with Baltimore for the 1st wild card

Also, still only two back of the Red Sox

A sweep heading into Seattle would be most beneficial.

Very possible. Angels rolling out some garbage pitching the next two games.

Hopefully Liriano can pitch as good as he did last time.

Jays need to put up lots of runs this game IMO. Benoit, Grilli and Osuna have all pitched the last two days, and Biagini pitched yesterday so there isn't any strong arms fresh and available for tonight's game.

Think Texas v Jays, but going on for much longer. The Orioles reflect their manager, and Buck Showalter is one of baseballs biggest d-bags.
