I do not think this series is going to go well for the FLOPS. We have not played the Jays well this season at all-we are 3-7 against them. The problem is that they can actually hit a baseball and score runs. Their OPS is 2nd in the AL; we are 4th-but that is deceiving because the FLOPS have tailed off significantly. The only way we will win a game is if our pitching is stellar. Otherwise we will get swept.
According to Merloni they have a 98% chance of making the playoffs. Per fangraphs.
Im not buying it. I’d say it’s closer to 25%. I think they’ll win maybe one game in Toronto and then Detroit will finish them off.
Giolito has been a pleasant surprise. Show me a post I wrote where I called Bello or Gio a bum.
Try to pay attention!
If someone is a bum-and we have plenty in this team-I’ll so label him, If not I won’t.
