It's yet another first place team providing the opposition.
On the one hand, winning one of four at the Trop really isn't all that terrible.
The homestand started out just great, but soon went all to hell. What this team needs is a road trip! Bring it on! Let's go to...
The homestand (4-3 so far) wraps up with three games against the second place Baltimore Orioles.
The defending AL East champs come to town. Those bad men from New York.
So... when do the Jays get to play somebody who's not a contender, anyway?
The road trip concludes, with a visit to the home of the defending NL champs.
This nasty road trip continues, with a first place team up next on the schedule. That would be the... Pittsburgh Pirates?
Road trip! Beginning in quaint little Fenway Park.
We all remember, with horror, what happened the last time Seattle came to town. We must even endure a rematch of the Game One starters from last year's brief and painful post-season. Let us not speak of it further.
You can't really complain about a 3-3 road trip, especially when you were visiting the defneding WS champs, who won 106 games last season, and the defending division champs, who won 99 games themselves.
Why, it's those damn Yankees.
Back on the road, as the Jays do play 16 of their first 22 games away from home.
