Vargas with a GREAT outing. 5 shutout innings. Bravo.

Lester Holt behind the plate.

Jeff Zimmerman of RR posted today that Strahm's spin rate was way down and his velocity has declined and speculated he might be hurt again.

Strahm looked fine there, although even I could probably get a swing and miss from Byron Buxton.

Speaking of swinging and missing (Alex Gordon)

Looks like Soria next inning

Showcasing him for an offseason trade........

Mr Unlucky gives up a broken bat blooper to lead off

Soria keeps the season alive!

Soria dealing

A scoreless inning!

I thought they had him in real time but I think he's safe

Let's see if Hos can get one in the air

Jesus

Cuban Breakfast picked him up

I see Siberian Hootie is back at it tonight.

I wonder who's closing tonight

Seems like it is going to be very difficult to pass up on bringing back Kendrys's bat next year. Gonna have to pay him.

Look, I did not STEAL your money. If anything I MADE you money. You should be thanking me. But whatever. I'm done with this place.

This bitch is busted open! Boom!~

Gordo finally delivers some insurance

I guess all he had to do was shave

Think how exciting this would be if we didn't need 10 miracles to happen to get in the playoffs.
Thanks, Soria
& Ned

Orioles take the lead over the Jays

AIDS.

BJs have 3 outs to save our season.

Hud: I don't remember the Wader ordering a Jam Sandwich but thats what that was.

ROFL

Our season is down to the Jays' last out

No kidding, Ned straight pissed away the playoffs with his stubbornness.

Orioles win. The dream is over

Pretty fitting that Ozuna blew the save and Navarro was the last out against the O's. At least they're consistent in these situations. :)

ROFL

At least we're guaranteed not to have a losing season

LaCanfora going wild on Twitter.

welp - given the 30 year abortion we suffered through.....this is 4 successful seasons in a row gentlemen!

Get us a #1 or #2 starter and a bullpen piece.......accidentally forget to invite Soria to camp......and I think we got another run in us next year!

We lost Moose, Hoch, Cain, Davis and Gordo for extended parts of this season.

To have made it to the last week is pretty satisfying, all things considered.

Time to re-watch last year's run. :)

Plus a couple of starters from the opening-day rotation.
Plus, if not for injury, Holland would have been here. Soria was essentially his replacement.

Ironically losing Cain was our downfall and he had the most capable replacement.

Considering everything that happened this season it's actually been a decent year.

Cain & Davis really hurt because having to use Dyson & Soria was not replacement level. Cuthbert did a pretty good job at 3rd this year replacing Moose.
