The schedule, I would suggest, was probably a little more favorable this year, although I'd be lying if I said I went back and looked at the first 30 games of last year because I got here late.

But...

The record, nonetheless, is the same.

Interesting.

We're going to be joined by John Schneider tomorrow.

Thank goodness.

Because I'm interested in, and I'm going to call up David Singh's game story on sportsnet.ca because I think you know where I'm going with this.

I found this really interesting.

Now, maybe this is something that has always been done, and it's like anything else, right?

Until somebody...

writes about it, you kind of almost forget about it.

But this is, I think it's David's.

Yes, it's David Singh's article on sportsnet.ca.

I'm just going to read the intro.

The Toronto Blue Jays held their State of the Squad on Wednesday morning for the first time this season.

The meeting, which includes the coaching staff and various front office personnel,

typically occurs biweekly but was held off for a bit given the heavy roster churn the club has undergone over the season's opening month.

And essentially what this is is, well, it's, yeah, the state of the squad Wednesday's meeting, according to John Schneider, was talking about offense, you know, correcting poor base running, swinging, you know, making, showing, trying to cut down on their chase rate.

Things of that nature.

You know, John talked about what we're looking at right now is the at-bat profile and quality.
