| fair play to him |
Hey: hey: at least it's over, right? Sure, the Blue Jays have been swept at home in a four-game September-series for the first time ever. And, yes, the Blue Jays minus-twenty-six run differential against the Rangers is their worst run differential in a four-game series in team history. And sure, beloved children's entertainer Raffi was indeed driven to dark reflections in reply to Hazel Mae tweets late into the night (it was much earlier in BC, I suppose). Only a fool would deny any of this. But maybe the weirdest thing about any of these strange and legitimately awful occurrences (in the baseball sense) is that they have somehow not ended the Blue Jays playoff hopes. With fifteen games to go, the Blue Jays find themselves a game-and-a-half behind the Mariners for WC3, two-and-a-half behind the Rangers for WC2 (having lost the season-series against both teams, you can effectively add a game with regard to each team). Got to admit I didn't see it coming! And yet, the Rangers and Mariners have seven games left against one another, which means there are seven days where the Blue Jays can game a full game on somebody with a win. You can't rule out that they might! At least a handful of times! It would seem that, gift-and-the-curse style(e), we are still in it, and it is likely to come down to the final weekend of the season. So I guess we'll just see. Red Sox in town for three!
