The two they won was because Blanton went the distance and Hamels left after the Phillies were leading 9-1 in the ninth. Contreras, Schwimmer, Qualls and Bastardo (who is really living up to his name) don't belong on the roster.


The Jays bullpen is also frustrating the hell out of me. They signed Cordero and Santos to stabilize the 8th and 9th innings respectively, but Santos is on the DL and Cordero can't buy an out. Farrell finally decided to put Janssen in as closer after Cordero gave up a walk-off grand slam to Brandon Inge. It's too bad because Romero, Morrow, Drabek and Alvarez have all been solid starters for the Blue Jays.
