It can’t get any worse for the Toronto Blue Jays. Actually, it just did.
The loss of B.J. Ryan officially makes the Jays the most disappointing team in baseball. After losing Thursday night 8-0 to Boston they have lost nine in a row. On a team this talented, only Roy Halladay is pulling his weight and he’s gotten knocked around in his last two starts, including Thursday night.
But no one has talked about this epic slide. It’s incredible. This is a team that could have won this division after finishing second last year. If they played anywhere but Toronto, they’d be something for Skip Bayless to yell about. They paid Vernon Wells $126 million and he’s hitting only .279!
The only thing the Jays have going for them is young hitters. A few trades for pitching can right the ship. But at this point, it could be a lost cause. Bummer, eh?

Such a pitty for Toronto, but I guess you have to love your team even if they suck (ie Tigers between 1990s through last year). How about some love for Detroit. NBA and NHL loking good and their baseball team is finally winning some games. Look at the Brewers who are this years Tigers. Wish it would work out that way in Tampa except we have no fucking pitchers except for Scott Kazmir and James Shields who recently just descended upon from the heavens to help the city of Tampa.
Sorry if you are a fan of the following tems: Nationals, Royals, Rockies, Blue Jays, any team in the NL Central besides the Brewers and the Yankees. Lets give it up to the Yankees who just lost to the Rangers yeahhh! Texas!
