The Vancouver Canadians hope to get a split in Eugene Tuesday.

Now more than ever, Jobu. We express our gratitude for an 8-2 road trip. All things are possible with your aid.

I can't remember a year when we've talked so much about the fourth outfielder. For the life of me I don't see that there's a whole lot of difference between Raimel Tapia and Ezequiel Carrera, who didn't seem to inspire nearly as much excitement. So I thought I'd wander through the years and see what we've had here all along.

The A level seasons ended on Sunday and both Blue Jay affiliates are into the playoffs. Dunedin made it by having their game on Sunday rained out. Buffalo were also rained out. New Hampshire won while Vancouver lost.

Today is the last day of the season for the A level teams. Vancouver are in the playoffs but Dunedin won't know their fate until tomorrow. Win and they are in, lose and they need help. Dunedin took care of business on Saturday with a big win. Buffalo, New Hampshire and Vancouver lost.

Buffalo won the first game of their doubleheader. And here ends the good news, all other games ended with an L. It was especially tough for Dunedin who are still battling for a playoff spot. Vancouver lost but had a ninth inning lead. PK Morris and Trenton Wallace had good games. LJ Talley had three hits as it was a good day for the initialed class.

In our time of trial, it is Jobu who comes to our aid.

It hasn't been a good year for New Hampshire and Thursday's game was not great in all aspects. But Addison Barger had four hits and Cam Eden hit a three run home run in the eleventh inning for the win. Buffalo had some big hits and good pitching from four pitchers who have pitched in the majors for a win. Dunedin had a walk off win, just like New Hampshire. Vancouver played a day after clinching a playoff spot and lost.

The Baltimore series thread is up to 350 plus comments. Mercy! Skip past the stuff on the silverware if you like, and feel free to discuss the State of Things here! Better for everyone...

Buffalo ran up a huge lead and held on for a win and Vancouver clinched a playoff spot in decisive fashion. New Hampshire was swept in a doubleheader and Dunedin fell in extra innings.

Dunedin had a come-from-ahead loss and Vancouver was never ahead. Buffalo and New Hampshire did not lose because they were rained out.

Dunedin won both ends of a doubleheader over Tampa to stay in the playoff spot. With one week to go in the season they lead and have a magic number of six. Buffalo, New Hampshire and Vancouver all lost.

Vancouver are in the playoff hunt and they walked off their playoff rivals on Saturday to get their magic number down to two with seven games left. They could clinch a playoff spot today. Elsewhere the affiliates all lost. Dunedin's lead in their playoff hunt dropped to a half game after a three day shortened game.

After suffering a tough loss on Thursday, Buffalo bounced back to win big on Friday. Gabriel Moreno had three hits. Vancouver also had a big win and moved closer to a playoff spot. New Hampshire lost in extras. Dunedin played a little more than on Thursday but were again rained out.
