2016 ALDS - Texas Rangers (1) vs Toronto Blue Jays (WC) - Series Discussion

[Eyedea]

Don't see how the Jays can win this one if Hamels/Darvish are on their games.

Both have given up their fair share of the long ball at home so it should be interesting.

 

[Terry Yake]

wish the games didn't start so early

It will come down to how both offenses perform. Pitching won't be a problem IMO.

 

[MurrayBannerman]

Rangers in 4

 

[Patmac40]

Going with Jays in 5 because why the hell not? Plus if they get to the ALCS I'll be in Toronto to see it.

 

[CantHaveTkachev]

Jays in 4

pressure to make the postseason is off and now the bats will come alive...their pitching has been on point all September

 

[Loosie]

I'm going with Jays in 4.

 

[td_ice]

Awesome. Gonna be a fun series.

 

[John Price]

We the north

 

[tezgm99]

If the series is even half as much of a roller coaster as last year, this will be fun to watch

 

[TheBeastCoast]

Rangers are over-rated. Jays in 4.

 

[JS19]

See this going to 5 games. Toronto wins.

I see this team much more mentally prepared for the grind as opposed to Texas, even if Texas has the better roster.

People said the same thing about last night's game against Baltimore as they have the better bullpen and look what happened. The Jays won!

 

[Muston Atthews]

Are you not entertained???!!?

 

[Muston Atthews]

Odds we have a bench clearing brawl in one of the games?

Id bet the benches clear at least once. No brawl though

 

[Voight]

I imagine they'll go something like Estrada-Sanchez-Happ-Stroman with Liriano in long relief or a replacement if one of them is injured.

Don't think we will. Too few games to risk a suspension and/or injury.

 

[TheBeastCoast]

I imagine they'll go something like Estrada-Sanchez-Happ-Stroman with Liriano in long relief or a replacement if one of them is injured.

Most likely order is Happ-Sanchez-Estrada-Stroman I believe.

 

[DougieSmash]

Texas. They are on mission.

 

[Muston Atthews]

Texas. They are on mission.

I think that ball Edwin hit is still on a mission to Maryland.

 

[TheBeastCoast]

I think that ball Edwin hit is still on a mission to Mayland.

It may land tonight.

Never mind...that might be some reporters choices for starters haven't seen them listed anywhere else.

A good luck omen for the Blue Jays?

 

[Marc the Habs Fan]

So much for the matchups I was anticipating. Estrada-Happ-Sanchez-Stroman for the Jays, in that order.
