TORONTO — Following the Blue Jays’ 6-4 loss to the Tampa Bay Rays on Tuesday night, Toronto starter Marco Estrada spoke about how tough it was having a bad start at this time of year because the Jays have recently climbed back into the wild-card hunt.
And my cat can speak Tagalog.
To a man, the players are still spewing that “it ain’t over until it’s over” mantra.
To be realistic, it is over.
Sure Toronto was only four games out of a wild-card spot heading into Wednesday’s games against the Tampa Bay Rays, but the odds of reaching the post-season are miniscule at best.
