    Yep. The Toronto juggernaut is leaving a trail of pinstripes
    in its wake.
    Once Jays loaded up at the plate, on the mound and
    strengthened their defense...........it looks like nothing
    is going to stop them.

    Well they have the swagger right now for sure. I mean obviously they know they can outscore anybody so adding an ace was certainly a big key for them.

    You'd think the Yanx were playing in Hypothermia Alaska.....

    Something is amiss with the Team, to have everyone go cold.....Price is a premium Pitcher, no doubt, but the Yanx have owned him in the last couple of years, so.......I just don't get it......!!!

    Maybe no pre-game rah rahs, or Kumbayas.......???

    Playing the Jays in Toronto could be a Jays sweep, after watching this series in NY.....

    Jays record thus far at Home: 36-21
    On the Road: 23-31

    I gotta' feeling the Jays Away record is going to break even, before the year is over....

    and, what we'd all give to see the Yanx sweep the Jays in Toronto.....

    Steinbrenner: Brian, the team has lost two in a row to Toronto
    Cashman: sure you're right Hal
    Steinbrenner: that's Mr. Steinbrenner, we've had this conversation before
    Cashman: Yes sir Mr. Steinbrenner
    Steinbrenner: so how do you assess the situation
    Cashman: it's Girardis fault he didn't tell the men how important these game were
    Steinbrenner: just letting you know Domrowski is out there
    Cashman: Yes Sir

    Game Summary: Utterly Pathetic.........

    If this lackadaisical style of play by the Yanx becomes the norm, for the rest of the season, they'll be fighting Baltimore or Tampa for 3rd or 4th place........

    If the season ended today, we'd have, the Yanx, Royals, Astros win their Divisions, with the Angels winning the 1st Wild Card, the Jays, the 2nd wild card, and the winner b/t Anaheim and Toronto go on to the ALDS.....

    Unfortunately, they now just lost their third straight series to Toronto this season. That will need to change with still three more to go the rest of the way. They very much need to win tomorrow because you cannot let them come in here sweeping you at home.

    "The Plan" was written on a paper Napkin over Lunch in ST..........

    PS: I'd take Dombrowski in a heart beat over Trashman.....

    Why Hank remains Loyal to Trashman, and has not replaced Him with Dombrowski, may just be Hanks own Chernobyl........!!

    As several here have said: "Obviously Trashman has some dirt on Hank, Pictures....???" Probably.......

    I wonder how many MLB fans recall how and why Dave Stewart was ran out of Los Angeles, a day after a fiasco Stewart was caught up in, ........any takers, guesses........??? Seriously, its not a joke either, (as too the reason Stewart left L.A. in a expedient hurry)......

    Well, like I said last night. What's over is over. Dwelling on it is not going to change the outcome. They need to get tomorrow's game and put this mess behind them. Ellsbury is in a horrific slump and really needs to get it going. Has been terrible at the plate since getting back.

    So , let me get this straight Cashman , the hack, is responsible for the lackluster performance of the players, but the coach who is paid 5 mill a year, a former player , has no responsibility whatsoever , I AM such an idiot, I should no better since I have claimed to play this game.

    YOU keep playing it over and over and over. Sooner or later
    Girardi will be blamed if this team does not make the playoffs.
    But everyone, except you, really knows who the culprit
    is! The voice of freedom has spoken. lol

    Who's to blame when the Yankees do nothing to improve while the Blue Jays load their team up for the stretch run. They add Tulo and Price and the Yankees add somebody who immediately goes on the DL requiring the recall of Garrett Jones. Who do we blame for this? Even Kansas City geared up for another big run.

    Lol, so every other post by all of YOU bashes the hell out of a mouth piece, a hack , who never played the game as far as I know, a guy who looks like he should be a caddy on the PGA tour.

    Nobody can be this ignorant to think that this guy can pull any string without ownership permission .

    You of all posters caged, Very disappointed!
