The Blue Jays have tons of blown saves this year = suck at closing games.

Or Fransisco Cordero isn't a good closer..........maybe that's it. And I'd love to hear what the Jays as a team could've done different yesterday to close out the game or maybe it was just that the they had a tired AAA pitcher on the mound?

Bah, thought the team would be better than this....looks like another season of "maybe next year."

Francisco Cordero plays for the Blue Jays, so I dont get your point at all.

The Blue Jays could of not blown the save....?

The entire Blue Jays team really had no power over blowing the save or not, it really came down to one AAA tired pitcher is my point. The Blue Jays asa team don't do anything different from the 11th inning when it's tied to the 12th when they have a lead. When a team has the lead, are the relief pitchers suddenly suppose to pitch better or become better pitchers?

If a player plays for the Blue Jays, im going to refer to that player as the "Blue Jays"

Im just frusterated at the amount of games the Blue Jays have let slip away so far this year. Not to mention the blowouts on Friday and Sunday.

Will be curious to see if the Jays make a Roster move today.

With Kelly Johnson already out of action. Now with Escobar leaving the game yesterday... Will the Jays recall Mike McCoy or Adeiny Hechavarria

If I had to guess they will send Jesse Chavez down and call up one of McCoy or Hechavarria.
