Jays caught a break. Sucks to be Cleveland.

Morrow deserved that break, the Indians got super lucky in that extended inning with JPA's error.

Best thing about this series so far, the jays look like they are playing the only team in the league hitting worse than themselves.

Great start by Morrow and a ton of positives with the amount of ground balls he induced and getting a double player for the first time in about a season. Only hit allowed was off of JPA's unfortunate error. Very promising going forward.

The bats have to much talent not to come around eventually. Glad we have the 2-3-4 leading us off in the 9th.

Oh ya they'll hit this year. Wonder if it's the cold weather or something because they were tearing the cover off it in spring trainng.

No complaints at all with the bullpen so far. They've been perfect. Heart of the order coming up in the top of the 9th.

Can we all agree now that AA was right again? Kelly Johnson > Aaron Hill. Excellent defender, solid 2-spot guy, and terrific patience on the plate. I hope he keeps this up.

I don't blame Arizona for making the trade, but Johnson is superior to Hill in almost every way. He's perfect for that #2 spot when he's on and can hit for power.

The bullpen has still been the best part of this Jays team the first two games, Grantland featured a great article about how ludicrous the save statistic is and seems to be only used by casual baseball fans with arrogant opinions.
