The Jays look to continue with hot offense. They'll need it. They are missing Reed Johnson, Troy Glaus and possibly Gregg Zaun. With the loss of BJ Ryan, the Yankees have 9 innings to beat us rather than the usual 8, so either Burnett is going to have a great outing or our offense is going to have to out-slug theirs. My prediction for tonights game is that Burnett will have a decent, but not stellar outing, so as long as our offense doesn't struggle, we'll be OK. What are your thoughts on the game?

Well we can certainly out-pitch them and I have really liked the look of Burnett's last couple of outings. Hill is swinging a hot bat and maybe, just maybe, Thomas has started to wake up.. An important series really. The Yanks could fall a long way back, and the Jays need it to stay within striking distance of Boston.

So you think we'll be chasing the BoSox more than the Yanjkees for the Division title? I think Thomas has woken up, and today he can/will make it official.

Unfortunately postponed due to rain, too bad I was looking forward to it...not to mention I wanted to see how Burnett did perform.

Any word on if he will be pitching today?
