I think it's stupid that they're not even gonna give him a chance to turn it around...instead they're penny pinching already and second guessing themselves less than a month in...pathetic.

Well the Jays are being the typical shit the bed Jays again.. can't say I'm surprised but I am disappointed.. their hitting with runners on has been absolutely atrocious. They were 1-16 or something tonight with runners on.. that is absolutely inexcusable. This is gonna be an extremely long frustrating season I think. I know its still early but they are in a lot of trouble right now. Vernon Wells has been playing like shit too after a pretty decent start.. Also, I knew getting rid of Reed Johnson was going to be a bad move, he's hitting .309 with the cubs while Shannon Stewart is hitting a whopping .212 with less at bats. Again, I know its still early, and there's still a ton of games to be played but its frustrating seeing them get swept by the Rays and losing the last 2 to the Royals.. seems like the same old year after year.. I like the players they have but they've pretty much all been underachieving

No doubt they're off to a good start, but as you've pointed out it's only a month into the season and it remains to be seen whether their numbers will still look like that come September. This is after all the perennially bottom-feeding Tampa Rays we're talking about.

Right -- but you were talking about the Jays' recent scoring woes against the Rays staff, and recently, the Rays staff has been getting it done.
Perhaps they won't be getting it done when the Jays see them next....and perhaps, the Jays won't have the same trouble hitting with RISP vs. the Rays. :wink:

Well the Jays' struggles at the plate continued tonight - though I'll certainly give credit where it's due here, Lester pitched a great game for Boston, one-hitting the Jays through eight innings.
Speaking of great pitching performances, Roy Halladay turned in his 4th consecutive complete game tonight (no one else in MLB has more than one CG this season). Remarkably, he's taken the loss in the last 3 of those games. :nooooo
