Season starts tomorrow. have tickets for the game on Sunday against the red sox. Johnson has been really impressive this off season.
not the best start for Johnson Friday night
hell of a pitching match Sunday, are you going to be heckling Farrell ?
Definitley pleased with Cecil hitting 93 and 94 mph out of the pen, in fact, we have alot of heat coming out of the pen
Also, loving the Loop cheers from the crowd, hope that catches on

been away for a while and I am trying to understand how this team can be this bad so far. No hitting or pitching. they need to get back to basic baseball. do they know that homeruns are not the only way to score and that hitting is important.

Things happen in the game. Nothing you
can do. I don't go and say,
"I'm gonna beat this guy up."
* poor fundamentals - this team makes too many errors and just plays poor fundamental ball ... we don't move runners over and are very poor situational hitters (hence the dps)
* too many hrs and k's ... this team has to lead the league in strikeouts ... watching cano on the weekend hit was like watching a true pro ... in this league - you have to take what the pitcher and defense gives you ...
* mentally weak ... there is no fire to this team ... although most any team should be able to manage - the loss of reyes is the key here ... the guy we have at Short is an A-ball player at best ... we lost arguably our best overall players and our lack of depth there is showing big time ...
having said all that - the talent is there and really when you look at the 4 game sweep against the yanks - each game was winnable and they blew it because of poor fundamentals ... that's fixable ...
also - i think the manager has not helped out as much ... batting kawasaki second!? ...

you sound like me with the tigers last year ... the big difference ... we play in the central division, you can suck till September and then play good ball and win the division the jays are in the east ... fall too far back and may be impossible to make up enough ground.
I also didn't like that bowing or whatever kawasaki did after that nice catch ... maybe if it was a catch to win the game ... but not when you almost 10 games back.

Nice little streak going. pitching has not been good but last 3 games have been good hitting wise.
if they win tonight, it will be the first series they have won this season.
team still plays really poor fundamental ball ...
first and third nobody out and you get a strike out and a double play ... just brutal ... it's definitely all in their head ... the talent is there ... but they need to get tougher mentally and start doing the right things ...
Nice to see the team string together three straight wins. Hopefully they can keep this momentum going and be the team we all know they can be going forward. The next game I'm attending is on Tuesday and I'd love to catch another win.
I'll be at the game tonight to catch Nolin's debut. Hopefully he'll have a good outing and show us some quality stuff, but Tillman's going to be a tough guy to beat tonight. I've seen 2 wins in the five games I've attended so far, and would love to get to .500 tonight.
as the fundamentals improve so have the wins ... like dickey says ... if they can get to .500 by the all star break ... they can make a run ... hopefully reyes comes back soon and we can get johnson back into the rotation ...

Two key pieces. If they can get to .500 without them, they'll have a fighting chance at a playoff berth with them.
team has started to play better ball ... more importantly the fundamentals have been there ... i know you guys haven't posted to not jinx the team but what the heck ...
hopefully, we get reyes back for trip to tampa and morrow soon after ... lawrie can stay injured as far as i'm concerned ...
i also like the fact everyone is playing ... no one is sitting too long ...

I found my Pearl Jam / Blue Jays 2011 white t-shirt the other day. It's never been washed or worn. If anyone is interested in it, $35 (cost) plus shipping. It's a Large.

I guess he's thinking back to back
At least you guys won the offseason World Series

Melky is hitting the ball well and so is Lind.
