ALCS PITCHERS ANNOUNCED
Toronto Blue Jays
1.Marco Estrada (Postseason Stats: 8.1 IP, 4 H, 1 ER, 0 BB, 6 K)
2.J.A. Happ (Postseason Stats: 5.0 IP, 9 H, 1 ER, 1 BB, 5 K)
3.Aaron Sanchez (Postseason Stats: 5.2 IP, 6 ER, 4 BB, 5 K)
4.Marcus Stroman (Postseason Stats: 6.0 IP, 4 H, 2 ER, 0 BB, 6 K)
Cleveland Indians
1.Corey Kluber (Postseason stats: 7.0 IP, 3 H, 0 ER, 3 BB, 7 K)
2.Trevor Bauer (Postseason stats: 4.2 IP, 6 H, 3 ER, 0 BB, 6 K)
3.Josh Tomlin (Postseason stats: 5.0 IP, 4 H, 2 ER, 1 BB, 4 K)
4.Mike Clevinger (Postseason stats: N/A) ?
The Cleveland Indians, coming into 2016, were seen as having one of the best rotations in all of baseball. Now, with the injuries to Carlos Carrasco and Danny Salazar, the rotation has gone from one of the best to one that is just pretty good. However, with Corey Kluber being the only real source of consistent excellence, the rotation is one bad outing from Bauer or one too many home runs given up by Tomlin away from imploding. However, if the ALDS was any indication, the rotation for Cleveland should be nails going forward.

Game 4 was 'written in pencil' which means subject to change. If they are behind (hopefully not) they could pitch Kluber .

On a related note.......a rookie for the Toronto Maple Leafs just scored 4 goals in his very first ever NHL game.
Sidney Crosby has never had 4 goal game.
Wayne Gretsky only had one in his entire career.
Point is: I would root for Toronto to win the NHL......but leave winning baseball to us here stateside.

I followed Lemieux who had about 11 regular season plus the great one Gretzky had 9 regular season 4 goal games plus 2 playoff.On a related note.......a rookie for the Toronto Maple Leafs just scored 4 goals in his very first ever NHL game.

Gretzky most three-or-more goal games, career: 50 -- 37 three-goal (hat trick) games; nine four-goal games; four five-goal games
And 5 goal games have been done 60 times by 44 different players but Lemieux was the ONLY one to do it 5 different ways....and I saw it on TV in 1988!
But Syd the Kid? Too much concussion time for him to challenge the two above, Lemieux was the best all around in my opinion.

Now the Indians will need a few hat tricks from guys that need to get hot....Napoli?

That is counter to what I heard on the radio today....they said Gretsky had ONE 4 goal game in his career....but, in double checking I see that must be wrong....because I see that Gretsky had 4 game in which he scored at least 5 goals
Gretzky most three-or-more goal games, career: 50 -- 37 three-goal (hat trick) games; nine four-goal games; four five-goal games
And 5 goal games have been done 60 times by 44 different players but Lemieux was the ONLY one to do it 5 different ways....and I saw it on TV in 1988!
It says on Wiki that a guy named Joe Malone is the only person to have 5 goals in a game 5 times. It says Lemieux and Gretsky each did it 4 times.
But Syd the Kid? Too much concussion time for him to challenge the two above, Lemieux was the best all around in my opinion.
Again, the radio says that Crosby has never had 4 in a game. He is not on the list I see of guys that scored 5 goals...so perhaps that is so.
FYI....only 1 American....Mark Pavelich has ever scored 5 goals in a game.
4 Swedes, 2 Russians, 2 Slovakians, 1 Finn, 1 American, all the rest Canadians.

My happy ass will be downtown on Saturday with a 90% chance on the forecast of being hammered drunk.
Fuck Toronto, we'll go through them again on the way to another championship.

Early on the Blue Jays kept getting two runners on base so to shut them out was great. Same again tonight please
-
Can someone explain something to an uneducated Englishman please
In the first inning the Blue Jays had a double play but when the fielder at second caught the ball he wasn't standing on the bag so why was the runner out? He then threw it to first where the fielder was on the bag and both runners were out

You merely need to tap the base while holding the ball. Happens fast. A toe drag as your in the process of throwing is all it takes.Can someone explain something to an uneducated Englishman please
