Yes, the Yankees do get a lot of breaks esp in their building. That was a bad call on Rasmus.

Overall, I am happy with how the young and inexperienced Jays split the games with BoSox and Yankees. They have alot of depth in all positions. Wonder where Hechavarria will play once he is ready-my guess is 2nd base or outfield. As well, Rasmus will move over to left field to make room for the next Carl Crawford-that guy is Gose. Rasmus, (loved how he chased down the ball today and the Jays turned a double) getting Cano out was fast.

Can't wait till next year. The rotation will be even better and seasoned. Hope Drabek gets it together sooner. Nice moving story about McGowan. Man, he has some awesome stuff-velocity with late movements. I remembered how 4-5 years, he was going to be a huge part of the rotation next to Halladay. You have to admire his tenacity and determination to go through all that heartache of injuries-one after another.
