Good win for the Jays but I can't help thinking about the yankees blowing it to the sox earlier. Could be 1 game back!

Um... we won 3 (4?) of them last year, depending on if you count the game in Pittsburgh as the actual playoffs or a glorified Game 163.

He's talking about the last time we won the division.

Which, we got swept both of the last two times.

And yet somehow La Stella at 3B is still the weakest position by a mile.

Has Lackey had a start where he hasn't given up a HR? I cannot for the life of me remember one where he didn't.

He's given up 21 homers in 27 starts. He didn't give up a homer 2 starts ago.
