In my head, I keep a picture of a pretty little miss, someday Mister, I'm gonna lead a better life than this.

There were four close games at the top of the system last night. Ricky Romero had the Bisons in the lead but he let it slip away. Kevin Pillar got the lead back with his first AAA home run but the bullpen gave up the lead and lost it. Similarly in New Hampshire a lead in the seventh turned into a two run loss courtesy of the bullpen. Dunedin had a four run lead until an error made it a one run lead but they held on for the win. Lansing out hit Great Lakes 11-4 but again the bullpen let four runs score without a hit and the Lugnuts lost by a run.

Vancouver took an early lead and won. Bluefield had their hitting shoes on and had such a big lead that the bullpen didn't blow it. The GCL Jays were the opposite down early and by a lot.

I'm waiting in line, would you say if I was wasting my time?

There were a couple of wild wins on the farm Friday. Bluefield led 9-1 after two innings but the lead disappeared by the middle of the eighth. The Jays were able to push across a run in the bottom of the eighth to win. The GCL Jays trailed 3-0 but came back to lead 5-4 in the ninth. The save was duly blown but the Jays rallied to win in the tenth. Buffalo scored five runs in the ninth to make a one run lead a six run win. Dunedin won a close game, New Hampshire and Vancouver were well beaten and Lansing were all wet.

Kick 'em when they're up, kick 'em when they're down, kick 'em when they're up, kick 'em all around

Some rough games on the farm tonight. Our High-A affiliate lost 6-2 and went 1-11 with RISP. Brett Lawrie went 2-3 and Kyle Drabek pitched two innings. Our GCL team lost 9-0. Our Low-A affiliate lost 8-1 and Roberto Osuna was outpitched by another prospect. Our AAA affiliate lost, but managed to put up a gallant fight at the end. Bluefield eked out a win and New Hampshire came from behind to win on a night where Sean Nolin was OK. Vancouver won in the late one.

I'm sure I played this game before, pay a little bit now then later more.

"The Blue Jays have reached .500! Remove the stone of shame!"

"Woo-who!"

"Attach the stone of triumph!"

"D'oh!"

Kevin Pillar had a career night with 4 doubles for Buffalo.  New Hampshire won both games of a double header, while the younger Blue Jays prospects continue to excel in Bluefield and the GCL.

We've come too far to give up who we are, so let's raise the bar and our cups to the stars.

A 2-5 Tuesday on the farm with one game cut short due to Mother Nature.

Me with the floorshow, kickin' with your torso, boys getting high and the girls even more so.

Three one-run losses, including one in extra innings, contributed to a 2-6 Monday on the farm.

I'm not man or machine, I'm just something in between.

Today the farm teams went 3-3, with Buffalo winning a 14 inning sleeper 1-0.  Bluefield was involved in a shootout with Pulaski which involved 30 hits.  Lansing scored 14 runs, and Dunedin lost by double-digits.
