One more game left in the season. Or maybe 21 games left in the season. It's impossible to tell.

Jose Berrios returns home to face Sonny Gray.

Can the Jays bats (and feet) wake up?

LETS FIND OUT.

I’d be surprised if Sonny Gray didn’t throw a complete game shutout. This franchise has never hit him.

Twins win 2-1 today. We'll get to Gray in the 8th for a single run.

the lefties need to step up, only KK had hits, the rest put up goose eggs. Also Biggio doesn't deserve to be 5th after yesterday's performance, just staring at pitches.

Looks like Schneider has decided to go down with the ship running back that same godawful lineup for the past 5 games now. I like Biggios resurgence as much as the next guy but there is no way in hell he should be batting 5th right now. Don't see how Schneider keeps his job if we lay another goose egg today.

The FO are likely the ones setting the lineup.

Everyone needs to step up. 1 run in a playoff game is inexcusable.

The FO are likely the ones setting the lineup.

John Schneider said last month he has direct input in the lineup, when a reporter asked him why Davis Schneider was stapled to the bench for a week after the Jays acquired Paul DeJong. Cannot always pass the buck to the front office for the lineup. Win or lose, Schneider will be back next year. Shapiro will talk about how the Jays battled adversity all year, and still made the playoffs in the difficult AL East in his season ending news conference. He will talk about how Ross Atkins and Schneider did a phenomenal job, and that they are missing a few pieces to go to the next level. Very identical to what he said after the Seattle Choke Job last year.

Lmao what adversity? We were one of the healthiest teams all year. We should have had 100 wins easily comparatively speaking when decimated teams like the Rays had 98.

Our only hope is that Ed has had enough and forces Shapiro's hand in firing Atkins and the coaching staff. Ed is finally putting up the money and the team is not competing.
