Yes, we've had a pretty easy schedule for April, allowing us to win every series so far. But did you know since Cito took over last June we have the best record in the AL east by 3.5 games?

Suck it Yankees!

That is all.

MAY 12 UPDATE
The time is here!!! A.J. Burnet will face Roy Halladay - the man who helped him become the pitcher he is today for the first time since selling out to the Yankees.

I am going to get so much joy if he gets destroyed tonight!

Go Jays!

Well the hitting has been fantastic but there is no way that the pitching will be good enough for the whole season unless some trades are made or something.

Indeed, the Jays look great this year. I, too, hope they crush AJ and the Yanks tonight. I'm a Red Sox fan, so I'm anxious (and terrified) to play Toronto, but for now, crush the Yankees!!!

As a White Sox fan living in Chicago but originally from Toronto, I'm only too happy to have two teams to cheer for :)

not a chance in hell the Jays pitching holds up all year. There's only so many times you can trot out a shitty AAA pitcher and have him dominate.

It worked for Tampa last year.

No, no it didn't. Their bullpen massively overachieved, but their starting rotation was/is solid enough. The Jays have been calling up 6+ ERA guys from the minors because of all the injuries and having them dominate, not gonna last.

I totally dismissed the Jays at the beginning of the season, thinking they might even finish last. Certainly starting off a lot better than I thought they would. Nice win over the Yanks tonight.

Swept by Baltimore, you have to love it. Jays on the way to 4th place. Why don't children learn that posting brag threads about bad baseball teams in May never works out well?
