Hey gang! Dlew here for another ALCS edition of the gems of the game thread. I ventured over to BlueJaysMessageBoard.com and read 1,409 posts so you don't have to! With nothing further, let's get to the posts!
We won't lose to chris young
ha!
Let's rough ridin' destroy young
oh we'll suck it all right. suck it right off!
Dickey will pitch a gem today and frustrate the Royals. Dickey has been doing it to teams since the All Star break.
this is gonna be a delight.
GAMETIME!
Holy eff I hate Escobar so much.
Holy eff I'm sick of him.
I can't take anymore of Escobar.
Homerun!
That's why Dickey is gone after the season!!!
Bad start but at least it is very early in the game.
Zorilla is incredible. There shouldn't be a team that doesn't talk to him in the off season
K so Royals lead the series 3-1.
This gon get ugly
rough ridin' Dickey letting us down
eff off Dickey you bum.
eff you RA
Dickey rough ridin' sucks. I am sick of this crap
eff Dickey, rough ridin' Same crap show. 1 game he is decent, the other he gets his ass handed to him.
Loses games on his own.
If Dickey can shut them down the rest of the way well be ok
Gonna need 10 runs to win this one!!!!!
Get it starter early offense!!!!!!
Come on Blue Jays!!!!!!!!!
Gonna need more than that dumbass!
Losing to rough ridin' chris young in the playoffs would actually be heartbreaking
Bats better have come to play today. If we can start hot and get a few back in the early innings we could still do this
Its like all of our holes have been exposed against KC
I'll say
He's throwing belt high straight fastballs.. rough ridin' hammer them
This could be a 11-10 game the way these 2 scrubs pitch
I saw this coming after yesterday's game. KC offence is just relentless.
fuckn bumtista
Those balls aren't even up. Just right down the middle.
All meatballs
Wtf all those are Ritht down the middle
3 K's...wow
Hes throwing garbage how did we K 3 times
Royals baseball!
bunch of low IQ meatheads on this team
Top of the second!
pull this clown
Get him the eff out of the game.
Relax people.
It's not the first time ever RA blew up in the first inning, he usually settles down for the rest of the game.
Not trying to jinx him though.
LOL: i take that back.
KC is just on everything right now (have been the whole series).
I'm glad I paid face value for this shitshow
Hahaha in your face you idiot loser!!!
everyone settle down...these Jays can do this. You know this...be the fans you've been all year...believe!
in your face!
Go eff yourself Dickey
if this was in Vancouver they'd be throwing flaming tires at him.
weird canadian rivalry
When is marijuana going to be legal, I need it now to get over it.
About as rough a start as it gets. KB is just an erratic f-ing pitch. Hope we can get to Young before we face their pen. This one isn't over. Hold em Aussie!
i think that's the game changer right there. The Jays are going to coming up hitting.
Our offense has to change their approach while there is still time. We can score against Young as long as we're patient and use the whole field.
Just chip away.
Escobar is a moron.
He's also the series MVP sooooo
At the same time, as bad as Dickey was, this KC lineup is just on a tear right now. There's no room for error against them pitching wise. Going to be difficult to win any series with an entire team hitting like this.
They are a much better team
Wow, some of you (A lot of you) are pathetic...is this a Jays forum? A good chunk of you are a bunch of quitters and haters.
Pathetic!
Chris Young will destroy us today. He has in the past.
He actually hasn't, but whatever.
CY Young
Don't worry, we got this.... relax
I hate to admit it, but KC is a better team. Doesn't mean the Jays can't come back and win the series
Yep. All you have to do is win 3 straight against a "better team." Easy.
I think they're a good team, but honestly I don't think they're the better team. Ever since that comeback in Houston, they have been both getting a lot of breaks and just hitting out the ass.
Holy crap I got a speeding ticket for this !!! Lol FML
ha ha!
Liam is going to coast for four innings of shutout ball, and the Jays will chip away. We needed five runs or more to win the game anyway, right? Go Jays...we got this one...
Jays score!
Clawing our way back
Were not going to see Chris Young a third time. Yost will probably go 2 innings with all his top relievers
Youngsie still has some time, young man.
-run lead? We got this!!! Blue Jays battlin' back!!!
Let's Go Blue Jays!!!
Go jays Go!!!
FYSMC Kansas Die royals Die !!!
seriously...enough about Perez. They talk about each of those players as though they are the home team, the ones that they are rooting for. Let's take that away from them. Go Jays!
Perez this. And perez that. The man with the glove and the man with the bat.
lets go bats. get another run or two here and we in this
It's so frustrating watching this offense get baffled by guys like this.
Giant lanky monsters?
Didn't someone say Yost is a terrible manager....doesn't look like that to me
Well if they can find a way to come back. Royals bullpen is going to be pretty mumped for tomorrow.
3 runs is still well within reach for this offence, no matter how tough their pen is. We already got to their pen once during the regular season IIRC, it's just a matter if keeping it at the 3 run margin here on...
guys it doesn't always happen when u want it to; doesn't mean it won't happen....four innings to go, plenty of time for a couple of rallies.
The Blue Jays were the best offensive team in the MLB in 2015, they can get hits against anyone. Also, the Kansas City bullpen can give up walks and the Royals fielders can make mistakes. Anything can happen.
October 20, 1993 they came back from 5 down
October 20, 2015 ?
They'll get their asses kicked by double digits.
What a horrible bunch of people to watch a game with, eff you guys, lol… Go Jays !!! We are not out of this. Think positive!
Don't even put him on the WS roster.
eff I hate escobar so much
30 Manager spots in all of baseball, and this rough ridin' hick gets ours. First time all year im actually getting visibly upset
Royals are so clinical at cashing baserunners
I hope one of the players or coaches suggest the royals are stealing signs and have someone in the outfield bleachers
I would just bean someone and get a fight started.
No, lose with at least some dignity. Don't become KC.
t least this blowout win by Kansas City should motivate the Blue Jays to redeem themselves tomorrow.
In any case, this planet earth is relatively less than a speck of dust in the galaxy, which is relatively less than a speck of dust in the universe. So even if the Kansas City Royals win, it just doesn't matter in the overall scheme of things.
I wonder if this post is ban worthy? Does it matter, since the season is almost over.
Northof49, are you going to tell me that this post has nothing to do with learning about Sabermetrics? Do I care?
Startin' to get pretty dark...
I would be willing to entertain the idea that some of the jays personnel involved in this game have been paid off. MLB doesn't want the Jays in the world series. They never did. and it's showing.
Royals have a better roster and a better manager.
Jays certainly don't deserve to win this series.
This was a rough ridin' 3 run game after 6 innings.
The Royals have played better this series, and they've been luckier. That's how it goes. Put these same 2 teams together in another best of 7, and it could easily go the Jays way. C'est la vie. Now, excuse me while I go cry my eyes out, drink a bottle of whiskey, and kill myself.
Flukey series.
POSTGAME
Kansas City is pretty rough ridin' good. Their seven-run, late-inning rally to win game 4 of the ALDS, when facing elimination, and the way they took advantage of the misplay by Goins in game 2 – particularly with three LH hitters in a row getting RBI hits off a tough lefty in Price – indicate a team that is…pretty rough ridin' good.
This is the best team in baseball, and you know what? The best teams don't always win.
Congrats on having the best team in baseball tho. Although the NLDS runners up might have something to say about that.
That's all folks! I'll see you tomorrow, where hopefully our Boys in Blue can win the pennant! Goodnight and Go Royals!
