There's a chance for the Jays to have their complete lineup for what I believe would be the first time in 2 seasons tonight. Between Travis, Bautista, Tulowitzki all being hurt at seperate times it hasn't happened yet. If Martin is good to go, we could see the A lineup tonight.

I was at the game yesterday and man was it a briskly played game! I'm not sure if it was the heat, the pace of the game, or just the relief in not getting swept, but quietest sell-out I've ever been to.

I am headed to next Saturday's game against Baltimore and I expect that will be much more raucous. Then I have tickets against Houston in a couple weeks as well.

Time to make some moves Shapiro, need to give this team that same feeling as last year, that management and ownership are behind them. It doesn't need to be splashy like last year, but they need to show that they are in it. A good starter or a big bat (preferably a starter, but the cost is such that it will probably be a bat), plus depth moves.

Kind of a cool piece of trivia, the Padres are playing the Jays in Toronto for the first time ever tonight. It's the last inter-league matchup that hasn't happened yet in MLB.

Nice to see, back to the type of lineup they had at the end of last year. Not an easy out and really no breaks anywhere.

Yeah it's almost like they went out and added at the deadline without having to give up any assets or spend any money.

Right TAO?

Hehe

I went 2 or 3 years ago to see the Jays play in San Diego. Amazing ball park.

Apparently Buck is on vacation and returns Friday.

Devlin is absolutely terrible.

It's one of my favourites, but a step below Milwaukee, and about four below San Francisco.

Amusingly, when I went last year, I arrived to my seat to find a personalized letter offering me a discounted price for season tickets for this year. It was a nice touch, but I had to decline...
