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

[Dr Pepper]

This is going to be a great series. Might go the distance, too.

Still think the Jays come out on top again.

 

[solventless710]

Rangers in 5.

 

[Quid Pro Clowe]

Texas will lose in game 5 because that's what they do.

 

[Belieber]

If the Jays can split in Texas they are in great shape with Sanchez starting game 3.

Get the split and get out.

 

[BuppY]

Are Jays going with the following order as per their rotation?

G1 Estrada
G2 Happy

G3 Sanchez
G4 Stroman

G5 Estrada

 

[Marc the Habs Fan]

Yes for G1-G4.

Happ would probably start a Game 5.

 

[Voight]

If the Blue Jays can't make it out of the AL, Texas would be my pick.

 

[darko]

Jays in 4.

Steal one in Texas and finish the job at home.

 

[PG Canuck]

All Jays need to do is steal one in Texas and they are sitting in a good spot. Just one win out of two at bare minimum...hoping for two though just because..

Rangers in 4

Hey, Texas pulled it off last year, Jays can do the same this year.

 

[Marc the Habs Fan]

Rangers in 5.

Just don't see the Jays suddenly finding their offensive game.

 

[Halladay]

I dont trust Cole this year, he has been too wild and he has pitched much better on the road. Too bad the Rangers dont have another quality starter after Darvish, if they did I would pitch Hamels game 3.

This is gonna be a fun series. Rangers took their shots in what they thought was the last matchup of the season. It's time for revenge, 3-0 sweep.

Hope Bautista hits a homerun gives a massive batflip and taps his cheek to Odor as he round 2nd. Let the taunting begin, if they're not gonna let it go keep giving it to 'em.

No fights, but won't feel bad about any taunts that get tossed around

Honestly, I hope it's "eyes on the prize".

The Blue Jays have been there, done that.

It's time to set their sights higher than just beating their rivals.

Texas is just an obstacle to the true goal here.

 

[No Fun Shogun]

Rangers in five.

 

[bombers15]

Going to be a great series. Love the Jays' rotation. The pen is an issue, but hopefully some guys like Liriano can eat up those innings.

 

[542365]

Jays in 5.

[Muston Atthews]

Texas has a potent line up man. Didn't even realize

 

[MMC]

 

[MMC]

Saunders out, Upton in.

 

[Quid Pro Clowe]

Odor is certainly potent.

 

[DucksFanDFW]

Rangers in 4. Hopefully the extracurricular stuff is all on Toronto's part and the Rangers just focus on winning games.

Rangers in 4. Hopefully the extracurricular stuff is all on Toronto's part and the Rangers just focus on winning games.

Because that is definitely how it played out early this year
