100% this. I'm not blaming the runner already on first. It's difficult to anticipate (and quickly respond to) a teammate doing the wrong thingTiberius wrote: ↑ You make the assumption that Merrifield wouldn't have simply stepped off the bag, caught the ball from Vladdy, tagged the runner at first (who had to go to second), and then put his foot on the bag to get the hitter.
The whole play is great to think about after the fact, but in the moment, there isn't time for players to dissect the variables. Only Vladdy and Merrifield seemed to have thought ahead.
The real answer to the puzzle was that the hitter should have run hard down the line. If he does, Vladdy's only option is to catch the ball, or drop it and get a force at second... (so you catch it and don't risk an errors in the throw, etc.)

As much as I'd like Atkins gone it's unlikely - even if they miss the play-offs

I will be surprised if we take 3 out of 4 given how aggressive they were last series..

I think the only tie breaker (against teams still in the playoff hunt) the Jays would win is against the Astros.DHWestview wrote: ↑ Mariners lead by 1 game, but its more like 2 games since a tie would almost certainly go to Seattle.
First tiebreaker is head to head record, and the teams went 3-3.
Next tiebreaker is intra-divisional record. TOR 11-23, SEA 22-11. So tie goes to Mariners.

Thanks the schedule past the pesky O's SHOULD be in their favour assuming they don't cough up the wins to the A's, Nationals and Royals...they HAVE to win all 3 of these series the way Seattle has been playing...DHWestview wrote: ↑ Its only a 3-game series, but 2 out of 3 would make me very happy

What team would want him in his current condition?
Probably hanging out at some Korean Fried Chicken place in Koreatown North in North York that his good friend Ryu pointed him to.

The deal was necessary at the time incase Bo's injury was more serious. It had to be made.CrazyJo82 wrote: ↑ DeJong has a new home... what a bad deadline trade.
