And we know what we want
And the future is certain
Give us time to work it out
John Farrell and the last-place Red Sox are coming to town.
The Jays need a run of six or seven in a row or nine of ten to get back into it. Will it start tonight?
Friday: Drew Smyly vs. Marcus Stroman
Saturday: Jeremy Hellickson vs. Mark Buehrle
Sunday: Chris Archer vs. Drew Hutchison
Drew Hutchison vs Felix Hernandez tonight, J.A. Happ vs Chris Young on Tuesday, and R.A. Dickey, vs Hisashi Iwakuma on Wednesday before the Jays get Thursday off. All RHP vs the Jays.

Brett Lawrie - celebrating a home run with Anthony Gose against the New York Yankees September 30, 2012 - returns to the lineup after breaking his right index finger June 22.
I fear the Yankees.
The Jays have designated Sergio Santos for assigment. Rob Rassmussen has been recalled. Santos has an ERA of close to eight this season and a WHIP over two. Santos has only four, three up, three down innings this year and only one of them has come after April.
I guess if you don't have money to sign players, the release of a non-performer "sends a message" to the team to win now. This maybe explains why AA was looking at Aaron Sanchez as an option for the major league bullpen, he is a Santos replacement.
Brad Mills is back with the Blue Jays. He will be wearing #38, a decrease of 21 after wearing #59 in his first stint.
