Am I the only one who thinks Toronto wins fairly easily tonight?

Small on Baltimore, you think O's gonna wilt in that stadium huh? I listened to some interviews, Jays talking about if Stroman keeps the ball low alot, manager saying he's perfect for this spot. Is it wishful thinking?

Stroman is a ground ball pitcher. BVP's are a little worrisome but it's a small sample size. Playoff baseball is a different animal that usually brings out the best in everyone. I read somewhere that Liriano is available so Stroman may be on a short leash. I think home field is being undervalued here. As a Yankees fan, I hate the Blue Jays and their seemingly obnoxious fans that came out of the wood work since the trade deadline last year but that place gets loud, roof closed or not.

Tillman's BVP's are also worrisome with a much bigger sample. If he falters, who are the Oriole's going to bring in? Ubaldo? Tillman's average IP vs Toronto this year is 5 1/3 in 4 starts.

See what I mean about these fans? Who the hell throws shit at the guy trying to make the catch?! Adam Jones wants to strangle that guy!
