I promise you, clickbait does not generate subscriptions. I’m also fairly certain we’re not thin-skinned enough that we still need to be talking about this.
‘It’s sarcasm, Canada!’: Jason Kelce apologizes for dissing Blue Jays — by singing a made-up version of our anthem

“True maple syrup and poutine for our face,” Kelce sang, trying to make good for his criticism of the Blue Jays-Dodgers World Series.

My favourite part of the Clase/Ortiz indictment is the eight-leg parlay lost when — after getting the first seven pitches successfully called balls — a batter swung at the eighth ball.

They win a set of matryoshka dolls with Tommy Lasorda’s face on them.
Congratulations to the Cleveland Guardians, the playoff team who lost to the team that lost to the team that lost to the team that lost to the champions

Fair bit of hard contact off Scherzer but not much damage per se.

I will say this about Marlins Man: He doesn’t leave early and as far as I can tell, he’s only deployed his visor in rally mode during the Jays’ big innings.

Frank Isbell was 1 for 16 before popping off for 4 doubles in Game 5 of the 1906 World Series, setting the mark for extra-base hits in a single WS game, which Ohtani just tied. (The White Sox won Games 5 and 6 to win the series.)

My J.J. McCarthy take from before the 2024 draft was that, as a Michigan QB, his CEILING was Elvis Grbac.

Thinking about the George Springer contract and how underwater it was at the start of the season. FanGraphs says he added $41.6M of value in the regular season, which got him to within about $8M of the payout value of the first five years of the deal. Last night’s HR was worth at least that haha

This is a conversation we all had separately, by ourselves, all season long.

We always see pitching dominate in the postseason but when the pitching is off (like Kirby’s command tonight) it’s imperative to take advantage. The benefit of a low-strikeout team like the Blue Jays is that they are able to do that better than a high-K team.

Vladdy never loses any speed on his “slides” because he’s airborne for most of it.

FOX just announced Tigers-Mariners start time will be closer to 7:30 pm.
I told a friend this morning that Tigers-Mariners might start around 6 pm and nothing has happened to prove me wrong.

McKinstry’s helmet had come down over his eyes and it’s fair to wonder if he missed third base with his right hand because of that. The same thing happened to Wenceel Perez earlier in the year when he whiffed touching home plate on a head-first slide because his helmet was over his eyes. #Tigers
