Trans Blue Jays are fucking unstoppable

I thought Kershaw was left off the Dodgers ALDS roster? I must have dreamed he was politely removed?

Absolute beauty by an absolute beauty.

Nazem Kadri wins the season opener for the Calgary Flames vs the Oilers with a beautiful Shootout goal.

MEANWHILE, in NHL news, my Flames have done a terrific job to come back against the evil Oilers, but here is a *very* questionable call against the veteran Weegar in OT and he is INCENSED.

I'd like to report two murders.

Very notable that John checked with exactly one person if he wanted to say something first: Vlad. Heart and soul of the Blue Jays.

Two Yankees fans stare at their phones amid 11 empty rows of garbage-strewn bleachers at Yankee Stadium, following a Blue Jays series victory.

Cards on the table, last year I was calling for John Schneider's removal.

He managed the hell out of this game and series, maximized every asset, every pitcher available, and put his players in a position to succeed.

John Schneider is now my Manager of the Year.

Friends, your ALDS champions, the Toronto Blue Jays.

Vlad showing off some Gold Glove defense at first to retire Grisham, and we have 2 outs in the bottom of the 9th.

Where was Jasson Dominguez all series? Yankees finally bring him in and he delivers with an extra base hit in the 9th.

Yankee fans leaving the stadium early have clearly a) amassed way too much money to care about the value of their ALDS seats, and b) not watched enough Jeff Hoffman performances.

Blue Jays bringing in their r̶e̶l̶i̶a̶b̶l̶e̶ closer, Jeff Hoffman, with two men on base. Every Jays fan refills their drink.

Jazz Chisholm bat flips his walk after enabling two unearned runs. Interesting choice.

Vlad visibly trying to bring down the temperature, refusing to stoop to their level after the vicious HBP.

Blue Jays hero and honorary Canadian Ernie Clement gets absolutely drilled and is STEAMED. "What the f*** was that" asks the normally chill infielder, a valid question.

Just a defensive replacement? Nay nay! Myles Straw drives in Kirk to extend the lead to 5-1 and picks up his first postseason RBI.

3-time Gold Glove Award Winner Andres Gimenez makes a difficult catch in foul territory to bail out Brendon Little and avoid a potential bases loaded situation with Aaron Judge.

The Yankee fans appear to be loudly booing their own player, Anthony Volpe, following that strikeout. Wild.

Brendon Little enters the game and does exactly what every Blue Jays expects him to do. What do Walker and Schneider know that we don't?

#BlueJays #LightsUpLetsGo

Jays switch to full Defense mode in the bottom of the 7th.

Folks, I don't want to jinx it, but it's the seventh inning stretch and Rogers hasn't yet broadcast their Dancin' Gran commercial, the absence of which I credit for our good fortune.
