Would be nice to win a series vs the Rays for once.

Don't like the pitching match ups..

Heh, Matt Moore will eat us alive, as he's the very definition of a Jays Killer -- young, very talented, and struggling badly.

We'll probably lose all 3, but then win the next 4 and then lose another 3.. We're so up and down..

Nature of the beast; here is Tampa's season thus far, split into sections:

4-1.
1-5.
14-2.
1-6.
5-2.

We could use one of those...

Hoping for 2 of 3, Expecting 1 of 3, Dreading 0 of 3. I see Matt Moore lighting us up also, as already mentioned, seems like it always happens, uber talent struggling badly finds his game in time for the Jays (or the Jays make him find it).

It'll be a little tougher for Moore now that Lind isn't here to 0-4 it

Game 3 will be the most difficult. Even if Ricky pitches his best. We need to get to Hellickson or we'll loose this series.

Suddenly I feel like we've got a got chance. Normally when Kwame comes out bashing the team before the series, we do alright!

I know, it's like the schedule maker always forgets about Canada. Remember that one Canada Day they didn't have a home game or no game. :cry:

2 of 3 is do-able, I only say because of past seasons where I expect the Jays to get crushed at Tropicana but then do surprisingly well.
