Well, it's been over half a week since the Jays last faced the Royals - what have teams learned in all that time? Facing off against a MiLB pitcher in Game 1, so you know it's going to be a challenge for our bats.

Will we finally score more than 6 runs in a game? Will we keep our sweepless streak alive? Tune in to find out!

Good part about Jansen being back is the extra rest days seem to be helping Kirk's bat.

Guys on the bench wearing the same glasses, I saw the camera pan but missed the explanation. Some kind of tribute to Jansen?

Where would this team be without J. Turner. huge night so far with the 2 HRs. Too bad we can't get any players on base for him to score.

Schneider is an everyday player. Sure would be nice if the braintrust realized it.

Jays have no RPs available to hold this lead (unless you count Swanson and Mayza right now, which I don't). Fully expecting a loss
