Now that Stro is in I'm relishing ...Liriano should be chucking against BAL Gibbons is playing a hunch over facts in the wildcard game? WTF BAL has struggled against lefty's badly compared to righty's ,TOR is more evened out...Stro has been good recently and maybe he pulls this off but logically Liriano in my opinion should be on mound against this hard hitting Orioles team

Tillman 16-6 with a 3.77 ERA and a 1.28 WHIP in 172 innings in 30 starts Tillman 0-1 and winless last 3 starts with BAL losing 2 Tillman 2-0 and unbeaten last 3 roadies (2 unders) with BAL winning 3 Tillman 1-0 with a 3.63 ERA in 4 starts vs TOR tis yr (2 starts @ TOR with a a 2.38 ERA ) Tillman 0-4 with a 11.72 ERA in 4 starts vs TOR last yr Tillman 5-10 with a 5.44 ERA in 24 career starts over 137.1 innings vs TOR Tillman 0-3 with a 9.00 ERA with 7 homers last 6 starts at the Rogers Centre Tillman 2-6 with a 7.01 ERA in 13 career starts overall in Toronto TOR hitting .299 vs Tillman
Stroman 9-10 with a 4.37 ERA and a 1.29 WHIP in 204 innings in 32 starts Stroman 0-5 with a 3.41 ERA and winless in 6 Sept starts Stroman 0-5 and winless last 8 starts (4 roadies) with TOR losing 5 Stroman 0-2 and winless last 4 home starts (3 unders) with TOR losing 2 Stroman UNDER 5-0 last 5 starts (3 @ home) Stroman 1-2 with a 7.04 ERA in3 starts in 23 innings tis yr vs BAL Stroman 2-3 with a5.27 career ERA vs BAL
UNDER 7-0 last 7 meetings
TOR 10-9 vs BAL tis yr TOR 6-0 last 6 vs the AL East
BAL10-5 last 15 roadies BAL'closer Zack Britton is 47-of-47 in save opportunities this season Britton has allowed only 4 earned runs all season long. Britton' ERA of 0.54 is the lowest of any pitcher in baseball history who has thrown more than 65 innings in a season.
As PM3000 mentioned,I dont understand in Gibby's thinking here with Stroman either.,,Gibby believes Stroman has more post seeson experience and he believes in Stroman' ground ball % should win this for dem even with BAL having 5 switch hitters but not all of dem are great at it.Only concern here once again is if TOR gets a lead and they try to avoid Britton who's been lites out as a closer for BAL. BAL' pen is 3rd best while TOR is 22nd and that may be the diffrence in this game.Tillman since coming back of the DL surely hasnt been himself and hasnt got past the 5th in his last 3 starts and that may also play in TOR' favor.
TOR need to score here,thats the jist of it. They managed just 2 runs in the last 2 home games vs BAL and both were losess. If they can get to the 7th or 8th with a lead,they may have a shot here but thats alot to ask for and thats why im taking the total here.

Ok this might seeem like a terrible breakdown for some of you but in my mind its a possibility
At the end of the day MLB is a business and ratings is there concern right?
Whats keeping me from jumping out the window with Baltimore on this one is that everyone wants to see Toronto vs Texas because of there recent history.
Is it possible that MLB will try to do anything it can to get the jays to arlington?

Am I absolutely insane to be so sure that after seeing the recent trends that both teams have 30!!! scenarios(i.e. under is 6-0 in Orioles last 6 games following a day off etc etc) that the smart bet is to take the over? I guess thats the pessimistic nothing is ever that easy type of fan and gambler I'm taking Baltimore ML and the over lets go O's (and a little lets go Jays for the runs)

Toronto covers. They have a hotter pitcher right now and they're at home. Great matchup great opportunity to win money on Tillman but not enough to pick away playoff team.

Tough match up tonight...hard to choose but I do like the under since pitching will be tight. Hopefully no blowouts! Under 9.5 alternative libe safe. Good luck Jay's!
