Unlike the soon-to-be-golfing New York Rangers, the Toronto Blue Jays are giving me lots to cheer about right now. They've done something quite impressive: they've won each of their first six series this season! In each case, they won either 2 or 3 games (in series that were either 3 or 4 games in length, respectively), leaving them with a current record of 14-6. I've long said that MLB teams should go into each new season with the hard-and-fast goal of winning every series they play in, and focus their attention on that rather than worrying about how they're doing over the 162-game season. After all, if you win the vast majority of your 3- and 4-game series, then you'll almost certainly make it to the postseason.
It's still too early to make any predictions about how Toronto will fare the rest of the way, but at least they've put together a good run in the month of April.
