Price is gonna get 12 outs in 12 pitches. Everything will be fine.

That right there is the reason. Who do you want to go in in the seventh in game 5 if they need a lefty? David Price or Aaron Loup?

Given the performances of both thusfar against the Rangers? I'd say Loup.

It would be kind of funny if all he did was throw one pitch and get the Win

To all the people doubting burning an ace starter on a relief appearance with a 6 run lead, may I remind you the Jays are a Toronto sports franchise.

would you rather have Price start game 5 and have Loup face Choo/Fielder/Moreland?

You want to go with Stroman in game 5 fine, why are you using Price innings with a 6 run lead, that's the question

On the other hand, if Keuchel had been available for relief innings today with a 4 run lead that would have been fine :sigh:

well great we'll have Loup start game 5 then since he's the better pitcher

The guy for the Globe says this is the Jays having already decided that they wanted Stroman in Game 5 and using Price here spares his feelings about not getting the start.

Because Price is still available for game 5, so you bring him in for the Rangers' big lefties.
