    How bout those Blue Jays!

    Here's a crazy stat and if only the hitting was better they'd be getting a lot more pub in the media but Jays starters in the last 7 games have allowed 2 runs or less. That's just out of this world!

    Nice to see the bats come alive a bit. They're slowly but surely rounding into form.

      Sheesh, Eckstein nearly booted the game away

      It's amazing how the bats are starting to come alive now and the pitching is just so dominant. Now let's see if this team can go on an extended winning streak. It may just be the thing to propel them up the standings a bit.

        Yeah, hopefully the Red Sox start losing again otherwise winning all these game won't really help us. Still 4.5 back despite 4 wins in a row.

          That was a bit of a weird game as Rolen made an uncharacteristically bad baserunning play and WOW! Stewart still has some tread left on his tires with that triple he hit.

          The one great thing about this little run? ESPN has really been pimping the Jays rotation lately. You gotta like it when the Jays are feelin' the love.

            The bats are ALIIIIIIVE!

            Too bad AJ sucked.

            On the negative side, the injury bug is back with a vengeance claiming not one but both of our SS. "sigh"

              Eckstein and McDonald down for the count? It's like a nightmare come true.

              On the upside, Scutaro isn't terrible, I don't think...

                He's a pretty good utility guy in the field but I don't particularly like his bat. If either Eckstein or McDonald can come back within a few days then it'll be a good stop-gap. They're both getting re-evaluated today.

                  Fortunately looks like neither is seriously hurt. And, whaddya know Scutaro with (so far) the big hit.

                    After a bump in the groove....the beat goes on

                    Nice to see the Jays beat a team by more then 2 runs. The great thing is that Baltimore and NYY also lost. Too bad the Tigers don't feel like helping us out.

                      So after hearing yesterday how neither SS would go on the DL, now both have??? Inglett recalled and "A second player will be added to the roster Friday and the Blue Jays are looking outside the organization for a right-handed bat."

                        After watching the Rays/Jays game last night, you guys have some freaking stallions on the mound this year. Should be fun to see the season long race between the Rays and Jays.

                          The Jays should've won tonight's game. There's no way they should've been losing 3-0 in the ninth. Some guys are clicking with the bats but others are slumping BAADLY (Rios i'm looking at you bub) They should've won 4-3 or something like that instead of losing in 13.

                          Oh well....Wonder who they'll bring in tomorrow. I heard Jason Michaels' name "blech"

                            Jason Micheals was traded after he was DFA'd. Looks right now like Brad Wilkerson according to both Sportsnet and Jeff Blair in the Globe.

                            Here's what I want to know. How do you not even get the stupid ball in play in the 10th there? Forget getting a hit, not even in play? Its rediculous. The team probably averages almost 10 hits a game but as soon as someone sets foot on either 2nd or 3rd its like they become little leaguers again.

                              Blame Denbo. That's what i'm doing

                              Where's Mickey Brantley when you need him?

                              BTW Wilkerson of 8 years ago would be better then the Wilkerson of now. The guy is getting a ton of walks (so his OBP is healthy) but he can't hit worth a damn. That's something we DON'T need right now.
