See you next spring Dunedin! Good riddance. Justin and Patrick are back to bring you up to speed after a depressing week of games. The Blue Jays seem to blow a lead in the 9th or give up a handful of extra inning runs in every game lately. The good news? Ryu has been dominant, Vladdy is playing MVP caliber baseball, and Teoscar Hernandez is a legit slugger. The bad news?

The Blue Jays are heading back to Dunedin with a series win against the Rays at the Trop. A rare feat. Matz, Ray and Ryu all gave the Jays much needed stability and the bullpen combined for only 1 earned run allowed over 3 games! Ryu left his start with a minor glute strain. It doesn't sound like he expects to miss much, if any, time. Semien and Grichuk had a nice series, and Espinal was the hero on Sunday.

Now at 3-4 on the year, and with Springer likely out another week with a tight hammy, this
