As far as gut-punch playoff losses go, this one hurt more than most for the Toronto Blue Jays.
Instead of planning for a decisive Game 3 on Sunday at Rogers Centre, the Blue Jays were left to ruminate on a crushing defeat that ended their post-season.Two key moments stood out in Saturday's collapse.
Springer was taken off the field on a golf cart while Bichette stayed in the game. Manager John Schneider said Springer was"doing OK" but didn't provide injury specifics. Seattle became the third team in MLB history to come back from a seven-run deficit to win a post-season game. The Blue Jays could only attempt to find positive takeaways.
General manager Ross Atkins tinkered at the trade deadline but didn't push all in. The Mariners went big by giving up some top prospects to land Castillo from the Cincinnati Reds and the move paid off.
