    Will The Blue Jays ever over-take the Yankees, Red Sox and Rays?

    Ive grown to accept the fact that the Jays are in baseballs toughest divison and have realized that complaiining about it isnt gonna do anything. Do you think the Jays will ever win there divisoon?

    The Jays really aren't that bad. The problem is that, as you said, they are in baseball's toughest division. The Yankees are baseball playing robots and the Rays have a huge hot streak going right now, so they'll have to find some way to overcome both an exciting young team and the "default" World Series winners.

    They may even have a shot next year. Call me optimistic, but our AL east record is competitive (largely due to going 12-0 against the O's) and we are developing in every aspect. It should be interesting.

    Jays do have a chance, maybe in the next couple years. This year their offence and defence has been great, but their relief pitching has lost them a lot of games. Starting pitching has been decent, due to all the new pitchers/rookies in the rotation, but relief has been terrible. Kevin Gregg and Scott Downs have failed as closers and the only pitcher I can feel sort of confident on the mound relieving is Shawn Camp.

    they wont anytime soon. The Red Sox are picking up Top Prospects like Jarrod Saltalamacchia (dont know how i remembered it lol). Also, if they can keep Beltre, Mccdonald, Kalish, and Varritech, they'll be pretty hard to beat. The Jays need to sign some people like maybe V-Mart, since hes a free agent after this year, and maybe delgado if he can come back from his injury from the pawtucket red sox. they cant this year, but in a year or too, maybe.

    It will happen someday soon. I will say that the Jays should have kept Roy Halladay around to guide the youth in the rotation. Could you imagine how dominant the Jays pitching would be? Add their explosive offense and you're talking about a 4-team race in the AL East.

    They have to build a team that will be able to win at least 105 games in that division, when they do that, they'll go all the way, and dominate.
