The roster hasn't been announced yet but I would be shocked if he was.

Dickey wont be on the roster but if he were it would only be to start game 1. Mess up those Indians bats for a week

Pete Walker is saying he should be good for game 2.

They've got a few barely used arms out in the pen to eat up innings in a lopsided game. Don't need Dickey and his terrible personal back catcher.
Feldman
Tepera
Loup
Those guys were all on the ALDS roster and will likely be on the ALCS roster too I imagine

Liriano is symptom free. No concussion.

Sounds like Travis is going to be good to go too. Feeling pretty good about this series. I might be under estimating Cleveland, but I think the jays take it especially if the bats continue to stay hot.

You won't hear any more until Thursday night, unless they announce the times for Chicago's home games. But I would imagine Saturday afternoon, Monday evening, Tue/Wed afternoon, Fri evening, Saturday afternoon. The Tue/Wed afternoon may become evening games if the games are in LA

It depends if LA wins or not so they can shift games later. More reasons to hate Washington.

Games 3 and 6 will be prime time as they are the only games on the schedule for those days. Games 1 and 7 are weekend games, so meh. But you can be 100% guaranteed that games 4 and 5 will be weekday afternoon starts.

Game 7 is almost always at night. If it's the Dodgers it's possible games 4 and 5 could be at 5pm and the Dodgers at 8pm

I guess the big factor here is Salazar's health for the Indians. They have a strong bullpen, but Bauer, Kluber, and Lilly Tomlin as healthy starters. So if the Blue Jays can counter one of the top two starters and make that bullpen put in some work a long series might not be too bad.
Still the Indians offence is sneaky good with a lot of left handed bats and a Stadium that has a serious jet stream to right field.

Salazar could be back but he won't be starting any of the games. He will be working out of the bullpen with a limit on pitches.

Aren't they playing 5 games in 6 nights? I think both bullpens are going to be taxed. If any team can get a complete game from a starter, that will be really beneficial.

Whatever happen to Ryan Goins? He was great last season's playoff especially defensively. He also did well hitting as I recall. Isn't he a better option than Darwin Barney? Anyways, I would have thought Stroman will start in Game 1 but not complaining about seeing Estrada though. He seems to play better in the playoff.
I am glad Francisco Liriano is going to be available as long reliever.How about Benoit I think that's his name(pitcher who got injured on that stupid bench brawl vs Yankees).

I believe in the Pony Power

Barney is at least capable at the plate while still being pretty good defensively
Goins simply isn't major league calibre at the plate.
So that's the trade off.
I take Barney.
