That does not sound good.

On the whole BJ thing, I still totally respect the guy and am more than impressed with the performances he has put out (especially after getting into trouble), and its even more impressive coming off of his surgery.

I just really enjoyed those dominant closes. It was one of my favorite parts of a Jays game. Watching the heart of another teams order stare down 9 strikes in a row. Just golden.

Get Burnett that type of support....the other guys are fine with 3-4 runs a game.

Jays are 19-9 so far in May. 107 runs scored, and only 64 runs against.

That's 2.29 runs against per game, thats extremely impressive considering that doesn't take away the un-earned runs. thats the TOTAL!

6 shutouts in the month. I don't remember the Jays ever having a pitching month like this, its just mind-blowing.

Did I hear right? 5 singles in that inning? I'm kind of multitasking here. Nice to see the offense figuring things out.

Overbay with his second homer of the night makes it 8-4 in the 7th.

This club is just a blast to watch right now, man they are doing everything right now and appear to be a dominant club. It's awesome to see the offense turn around - and come on - they had to at some point - while the pitching remains strong. Bullpen has not allowed a run in 20 innings! I think SNet said they had outscored teams 52-15 in this run they're on.

some of the numbers that this team is putting up right now are unreal. i love how they immediately responded after the angels tied it up, that's what the good teams do. nice.

Apparently, he's also started at 5 different positions since coming to the Jays.

Obviously he's played 2nd base, since that's where he was in for Hill yesterday. He's also been at 3rd and shortstop. What are the other two positions?

Ah, thanks. I figured first might have been one of the positions but I couldn't think of which other one.

All we need him to do is catch a game and throw some pitches and it'll be all good. Perhaps we should have him play a different position each inning just for kicks.
