The Nemesis
Semper Tyrannus
It's playoff time!
Round 1 is a best-of-3 series vs the AL #1 seed Tampa Bay Rays. All 3 games are happening at Tropicana Field with Tampa Bay as the home team. The current schedule is:
Game 1: Tuesday, 5pm ET/ 2pm PT - Matt Shoemaker vs Blake Snell
Game 2: Wednesday, 4pm ET/ 1pm PT - Hyun-Jin Ryu vs Tyler Glasnow
Game 3: Thursday, time TBD (If necessary) - Taijuan Walker vs Charlie Morton
The specific lineup for the series hasnot been announced yet, but the Jays do have their 40-man playoff player pool selected. This group had to be named so that players involved would enter a more stringent quarantine from now on, and are only allowed to be in their hotels or at the ballpark
(I broke it up into rough positional groups):
Pitchers
Chase Anderson
Robbie Ray
Tanner Roark
Hyun-Jin Ryu
Matt Shoemaker
Taijuan Walker
Anthony Bass
Ryan Borucki
AJ Cole
Rafael Dolis
Wilmer Font
Thomas Hatch
Anthony Kay
Julian Merryweather
Patrick Murphy
Thomas Pannone
Nate Pearson
Sean Reid-Foley
Jordan Romano
Ross Stripling
Shun Yamaguchi
TJ Zeuch
Infielders/Catchers
Danny Jansen
Caleb Joseph
Alejandro Kirk
Reese McGuire
Vladimir Guerrero Jr
Rowdy Tellez
Cavan Biggio
Jonathan Villar
Joe Panik
Bo Bichette
Santiago Espinal
Travis Shaw
Brandon Drury
Outfielders
Jonathan Davis
Randal Grichuk
Lourdes Gurriel Jr
Teoscar Hernandez
Josh Palacios
From this list the Jays will select 28 players to comprise the active roster for the playoff series. They can, if they wish, change the makeup of the 28-man active roster by swapping in players from this 40-man pool between playoff series (if they advance) but they cannot add anyone to the pool from here on out. If a player isn't on this list they will not play in the playoffs no matter how far the Jays go. Some of the players (Tellez & Merryweather for example) are already injured and may not be available for the first series, in which case they will only be able to be added to the active roster if the Jays advance.
Several more players (Pannone, Drury, Joseph, and Palacios) are not on the 40-man regular roster (not the same thing as the 40-man playoff player pool) at the moment and would have to be added to the 40-man standard roster in order to then be placed on the 28-man playoff active roster. At the moment the team has 1 open 40-man spot thanks to Ken Giles being on the IL.
I almost forgot, there aren't playoff avatars, but I do still have the regular season set:
Relief Pitchers
Infielders
Outfielders
Variants
