GameThread Game #161: Rays at Blue Jays

A (slightly hungover) Rays team will be going for the series win today. Let’s hope we can somehow use that to our advantage.

Even though it’s all been settled by now that Buck and Pat are aware of our BINGO card and intentionally trolling us, we will go for it again today.

Here are today’s lineups. Bo Bichette is done for the season, and Vlad Jr has been scratched with a sore knee. Teoscarnandez will lead off and play center, Anthony Alford gets a start in left (:D!!!) and Smoak will DH.

Today's Lineups
