I’m on the hunt I’m after you
Smell like I sound, I’m lost in a crowd

The Jays have completed 2/27ths of the season and have a .250 record. What's the over/under on when the Jays hit the .500 mark for the season?

  1. Fordin Notes on Delgado's horrible slump, and the trade that sent Scott Cassidy to the Red Sox for a PTBNL.

  2. Househunting prevented me from seeing yesterday's game, but it doesn't sound like it was a fun one, as reported in Mr. Fordin's "Jays can't avoid Oriole sweep". Related Stories: Millson's "Baltimore completes sweep", Allan Ryan's "Jays not so great for starters: Loss to Orioles ties futility mark for first 11 games", Allan Ryan's second article "Shhh! Blue Jay bats sound asleep", AP's "Orioles destroy Jays", CP's "O's keep Jays winless at home", and Joe Christensen of the Baltimore Sun's "O's finish off Jays, 7-0".

  3. Here's a weird one involving a former Expo: "Walker finds dead body".


When the hockey playoffs are on, don't expect more than game recaps from the local fishwrap.

Stats Du Jour

I mentioned earlier that the Jays have completed 2/27ths of their season. I've pro-rated the Jays players stats by 27/2 to see what the players end of season stats would look like if they continued at their respective paces. For the starting pitchers, I pro-rated them to each make 30 starts instead.

Some Nintendo looking stats we've got here. If you gave Delgado 100 more steals, he'd look like the speedy leadoff hitter for the Moscow Bears in "World Class Baseball". Roy Halladay is channeling Bert Blyleven circa 1986.

What's your take?
