    You actually think happ on 2 days rest is the Jays best option??

    Your posts are hilarious, let me find that one thread where you said an NHL team with home ice advantage had never been swept before in NHL history. That was also gold.

    It's baffling. Toronto is looking ahead to the ALDS and it's going to bite them in the ass.

    What are you talking about? Savvy managers jiggle their starting rotations around all the time to put themselves in the best possible position to win. John Gibbons made a colossal mistake by not resting his best pitcher for the most important game of their season.

    And my comment about NHL playoffs was 100% true. It's not my fault you don't understand the definition of a "sweep."

    As Mickey just mentioned, Happ just pitched on Saturday.

    Gibbons couldn't rest any pitchers, Jays did not clinch wild card spot until final day of season.

    Take the more clutch team, easily Jays. Dont know how many times Ive seen those "bats" of Baltimore muster only 1 run. Lost count. Donaldson will prob explode like he usually does in these situations.

    Get your facts straight troll. They could have dropped their last game of the season. They would have picked up the 2nd wild card spot if they lost.

    Not if Tigers would have won, they couldn't assume anything.

    Again you can't be serious?

    As LT just said if the tigers won out the jays would have had to play an extra game just to make it to this one.

    So you are saying they should have rested happ and Sanchez for a game that they may not have even gotten to if the tigers won out and then beat the Jays in their tiebreaker game??

    I hear that. These Orioles in this spot with this value is feeling a little suspect to me.

    I'm not done looking at the markets but the more I dig, the more I am suspicious.

    Unfortunately, the way to bet it isn't always the winner.

    Not an easy decision, paying -141 when alot of things point to Balty especially looking at how each have pitched against the opponent this season. Seems Jays overpriced, guessing some has to do with playing in that stadium that is going to be deafening. Both have had a shaky game in the postseason previously, nerves amplified. Havent placed bet yet, thinking about it, I just cant pay that price for Jays, bookie has done his job, at a stalemate.

    Think the total is suspicious to me. Up and down both line ups have shelled the starter for each team over a pretty big sample for mlb yet under 8 1/2 is being juiced.

    Stroman has been good the last 3rd of the season and when he is pitching good he keeps the ball down. Among best in baseball at getting ground balls which isn't good for Os who are all about that HR.

    Then again as the total implies if the game is low scoring the advantage goes to balt who may have best bullpen. Def have best closer

    So there are good reasons to bet the over, under, balt, and tor

    If having to choose I guess I'll roll with the Os bullpen

    Both teams will have short leash on the starting pitchers. Its troubling to me that everyone seems to be on Orioles.

    Toronto's bat are too strong. They could win a high scoring game just by Bautista & Donaldson alone!!! O's have no shot and Tillman is below average journeyman vs the young and up and comer Stroman

    I once new a guy who stood below a blue jay and an oriole on a wire.

    In the end, he all he got was some bird shit on his head.

    That's the moral of this story.
