So you're looking for the thrill
And you know just what it takes
And where to go

Two 1-0 losses in three days. Are you in the half full crowd who will focus on the terrific pitching or in the half empty crowd who focus on the silent bats? At any rate, it would be nice to win one of the pitching duels in the near future.

  1. Details of the game can be found in Spencer Fordin's "Jays on short end of close one", Mark Feinsand's "Sierra walks off with win", Mike Rutsey's "Jays fail yet again", Ronald Blum's "Jays lose heartbreaker", Larry Millson's "Homer spoils great pitching", Allan Ryan's "A tough end to a bad trip", and Richard Griffin's "N.Y. trip is a sign of the Times".

  2. Fordin Notes on Tosca's reaction to the lack of offense, the roster moves we discussed yesterday, and Ted Lilly's homecoming in Yankee Stadium. As for the roster moves, expect more of them, as J.P. is quoted as saying:

      He was pitching pretty well down there, and he's deserving of at least a look... We're going to start looking at more guys, getting them up here.

    Any predictions on who will be coming up to the big club?

  3. Tonight's 7:05pm EST start at the Dome is another homecoming, as the Rays are sending the 7-7 lefty Mark Hendrickson to the hill. The Jays counter with the 8-6 Miguel "I haven't been traded for Justin Morneau making Aaron Gleeman very happy" Batista. I'm looking forward to this one and wish I could go. Anyone going up to 518 with NFH for this one?

  4. Mike Rutsey reports on a rumour that has been floating around for the past few days in "Red Sox interested in Adams". Unlike many of the others, this rumour has been confirmed by J.P., so it looks like there's a good chance Adams will be wearing another uniform soon.

  5. In Jeff Blair's "No site picked, union boss says", we find out that MLB denies the rumour that they've told Expos players that they'll be playing in Washington D.C. next year. They did, however, tell the veteran players they'd be playing for the Yankees, Red Sox, and Twins next week.


What's on the minds of the Bauxites?
