Reflections on the Blue Jays so far in 2010
Hi. Long time no talk. My fault, we’ll try to be a bit more regular here. So what’s happening with the Blue Jays? Well we are 4 games above .500 in August, which, considering all the ‘experts’ had us losing 100+ games isn’t all that bad. You’d think people that are that wrong wouldn’t be […]
