How does a team go from world-beater to doormat in one short week? Well, apparently it wasn't all that hard, in the case of the Toronto Blue Jays. In the one game over the past 7 days where ace Roy Halladay was pitching a gem (7 innings of shut out ball) the rest of the club managed to score no runs themselves... and lost the game 1-0 when Atlanta picked up a run off the relief staff in the 8th. The rest of the games were generally lousy performances that were the exact opposite of how they performed to post a 27-14 record to start the season.
Are we now seeing the real team, or is this just a blip? I'll reserve judgment for another week or two. But Cito better be tearing some strips off some players right about now.
