2013: What a Roller Coaster!!

[oakville69]

It has been quite a ride on the roller coaster ride this year. Last October, the Jays former manager, John Farrell gets traded at his request to the Red Sox.

 

November comes along with the Marlins trade, then Melky gets signed. Dickey is the Christmas present.

 

Playoffs looked virtually guaranteed. April 2nd 2013 comes around, & the Jays flop at the home opener. April & early May are horrible., with a record of 10-21.

 

Since then, the Jays are 25-15 with Esmail Rogers & Chien Min Wang in the rotation.

 

The Jays have 10 games coming up against the AL East. How will they do?

 

What I find strange is that I went through the 5 stages of emotions in dealing with the Jays this year a few weeks ago & accepted the likelyhood of no playoffs this year.

 

I watched the recent games with a serene attitude. Now the Jays are back in the thick of a playoff race & I am getting nervous again.

 

The scary thing is that almost every loss from now till September 29th could mean the difference between playoffs or no playoffs.

 

It looks like we have some competitive baseball to play at least through July.

Obviously I'd want this streak to continue forever, but obviously that's not realistic... They just have take 2 of 3/3 of 4 in most series', and play great against the AL EAST... Easier said than done, but with Reyes coming back, and the best bullpen we've had in years, it's not that impossible to think it could happen
