Blue Jays are gone, Manoah can suck it. Striking out Bobby and Franchy doesn’t warrant fist pumps brah

Damn, you just hate to see a division rival get eliminated in one of the alltime bad playoff losses.

Wow, the Yankees are the only AL East team left standing. What a choke by the Blue Jays.
Is it too much to hope for a Seattle/Cleveland ALCS?

Many people are asking - is it time for Toronto to have a firesale and start all over?

And just like that the Red Sox had a better year than Tampa and Toronto because Tampa and Toronto didn't win the World Series and the Red Sox have a better draft pick.

I am enjoying wild card weekend as a fan without a dog in the fight
I am thinking that I will not be too excited in the future if the Red Sox qualify for this round and will not feel like they accomplished much of anything if they get eliminated here. Top two seed or LCS are the minimum thresholds for a good season IMO.

I really really don’t like Alex Manoah and I’m very happy he’s done playing baseball for 2022, just like Dalbec and Cordero ☺️

And the Rays, ladies and gentlemen…. may we never be like them. Has anyone with any common sense ever suggested the Red Sox are going to be like the Rays? The RS payroll was $234 million this year. Tampa's was $118 million. I'm not seeing the resemblance. No one with an actual brain is making that comparison (they are just complaining to complain….the grumpy old man syndrome). Lol

Top two seed or LCS are the minimum thresholds for a good season IMO. That's almost exactly how I have always felt. Maybe it comes from the Sox never winning a World Series for so many years. Watching them lose to the Cardinals, the Reds and the Mets. It's one reason I loved Larry Bird so much. The only win is winning the World Series. Everyone else lost. After the Sox finally won I was set for life but I still feel the only goal is winning it all. The seasons where they don't win are interesting as steps towards winning it all again.

I’ve been happy with all the first round winners. I nay pay for it when the Yankees have weaker competition, but for now… happy.

Probably shows how out of the loop I am, but apart from playing for the Blue Jays, what has Alex Manoah done?
