Jeff Blair gets things going in the Globe and Mail today with a column questioning Cito Gaston. "Cito should have done better" is the headline. JP Riccardi has been the target of the scribes up to now but Blair is the first one to take on Gaston. Blair does credit the blogosphere for discussing this over the last few weeks.
With the Jays touch and go to win 70 games this is likely the first of many such columns.
The Jays lost 6-3 yesterday in a somewhat listless contest. Scott Richmond looks to be headed to the bullpen for 2009 unless he can show more consistency.
With Aaron Hill gone for a few days for the birth of his first child, Johnny Mac and Joe Inglett will get some second base reps which will not help the drive for 70 wins.
Las Vegas finished their season yesterday so we should hear of additional call-ups today. David Purcey, Jeremy Accardo, Brian Dopirak and possibly Kyle Phillips appear to have the best chance.
