Now, it's way early in the baseball season, but holy smokes, the Toronto Blue Jays have now won all four series they've played so far.
If this keeps up, they'll be in the thick of things in the American League East and wild card race.
Bob McCown (FAN 590) predicted 90 wins for the Blue Jays, which was likely said in jest. But I guess Jays fans can only hope, right?
Of course, the Jays haven't faced anyone from the East yet this season, having faced the Tigers, Indians, Twins, and now A's thus far. But still, those same Indians, who started out 0-5, sure made headlines this weekend during their series against the Yankees in the opening of new Yankee Stadium.

(For those of you who missed it, Cleveland pounded New York 10-2 to open the new stadium on Thursday, before humiliating the Bombers 22-4 on Saturday night.)
And didn't the Twins just sweep the reeling L.A. Angels, the team picked to dominate the weak AL West, this weekend as well?
Even Detroit has come around somewhat, going 5-2 (pending its game Sunday in Seattle) since dropping three of four at Rogers Centre to start the season.
Anyways, who knows, if the Blue Jays can continue winning, they could be in the thick of things for a while this season.
And besides, they've got Cito Gaston back managing the team to start the season...
We'll have to see how they manage without Jesse Litsch, who is likely out 6-8 weeks. Brian Tallet did okay taking Litsch's spot in the rotation Saturday, but we'll see...
