How about them Blue Jays. They just keep on winning games, espcially when the doctor’s on the mound. Roy Halladay is now 7-1 with a 2.95 era after tuesdays game against the New York Yankees. The Jays Ace went the distance picking up his 41st career complete game. He also was up against former Blue Jay starter A.J Burnett. Who basically took the greedy way out of the Jays oraganization. Signing a 78 million dollar contract with one of Blue Jays biggest rivals The New York Yankee’s. I guess tonights game had a little bad karma for A.J Burnett considering he only had three strikeouts with 7 innings and 2/3rds pitched. He allowed 5 runs on seven hits. Three of those hits came from blue jay Scott Rolen, who in his career was hitless against A.J. Burnett. It was a big game for Scott Rolen as he broke his slump against Burnett and he batted in the Jays game winning runs to win the game. Maybe it wasnt bad karma, maybe it was simply the jays dominating any team that stands in there way as they lead the majors with the most wins. A lot of credit can go to guys like Roy Halladay an inspirational leader of example for the Jays pitching staff. Adam Lind who’s is hitting with power. Marco Scutaro Who’s hitting consistant in the lead off spot. Barajas who has been playing like an all star catcher. Arran Hill who is having a career year leading the majors with 56 hits. There are a lot more players stepping it up this year but i think Cito Gaston deserves most of the credit. His hitting expertise has excelled the Blue Jays roster to one of the, if not the best hitting teams in MLB so far. Jays fans look like they have interesting season ahead of them. Hopfully they can keep up this type of play and get another chance at the world series.
