SPORTS

Well, the Blue Jays defeated the sad sack Baltimore Orioles last night by a score of 9-5. As the trade deadline approaches, it will be interesting to see what moves the Jays will make. I have to say, I've been disappointed in the bullpen in recent games, particularly Kevin Gregg, Scott Downs and Jason Frasor. I don't think Gregg has been playing with the command, discipline and authority necessary in a really good closer. We will see what General Manager Anthopoulos comes up with.

If the Jays trade Jose Bautista, I will be disappointed. He is such a versatile player and has been a home run king this season.
