I was busy working during the game today, and despite having the game on in the background I missed Jose playing 3B and Josh playing SS.

I'm glad I didn't get sucked back in this time.

Blue Jays notifications are so depressing these days after that incredible two year ride.

2015 - "Blue Jays are closing in on trade for Troy Tulowitzki"
"Blue Jays may be interested in David Price"
"Blue Jays have traded for David Price"

2017 - "Blue Jays management could possibly be interested in extending Marco Estrada an offer this off season".

Lopez, that was bush-league

A sweep undoes a lot of progress the Jays had made

If Refsnyder isn't losing games by himself it's Lopez.

Dumb as #### by Lopez. What a garbage way to get swept. Totally undoes the 3 of 4 games they won off the Rays.

Clearly isn't their year. Glad they made it interesting for some stretches, but I believe they should have a better record, even with all the injuries. Just far too many excusable losses this session.

Pretty frustrating. Lost every game by one run against the defending WS champs.

Well, at least its a day game today so I can listen at work to make the day go by faster. Regardless of how they are playing, I still enjoy listening to the radio broadcasts of the game. Not sure why, as I mostly hate the radio for other sports, but I love it for baseball.

I may have to eat my words...was not a bunch of fun listening to a shut-out. Still there were exciting moments, but it seems like this team has finally thrown in the towel now. I wonder if it'd be different without the 10th inning meltdown in Chicago?

June 24...never forget

Today was the first time in a while that I turned it off early; you could just tell they weren't going to score

I mean, JD hits what looks to be a 2 RBI double that looks to be fair and is initially called fair, but upon further review just misses foul by a few inches.

Then next at-bat Smoak hits a high pop up with the bases loaded that looks for the world like it is going to drop in but is robbed by the best defensive centre fielder in MLB.

And earlier Pearce smokes a line drive up the gap but that went for naught as Mr. gold glove centre fielder snuffed that out.

Fcuk this year. It's just not meant to be.
