But they play tight, clean, good baseball.

And over the years, that's what's made them so good.

And sometimes, guys, I don't like it when either the Blue Jays themselves or fans talking about the team say, oh, it's the Rays magic, the trop is cursed.

If that was the case, the Rays would win every single World Series.

The Blue Jays are the problem.

Not the Rays being a super team in this situation.

And for years and years, the Blue Jays would be the team against the Rays to make that first mistake.

And sometimes that starts to feel like dark magic and like the world is against you.

But last year, the Blue Jays flipped that.

They were the team that played airtight baseball.

You made the other team blink first.

Now it's kind of reverted.

You're seeing the Rays play Rays baseball.

They're really well coached.

They're really well put together.

And they just don't shoot themselves in the foot, which is something the Blue Jays have been doing again.

No, it hasn't.

This is not the version of Vladdy that the Blue Jays need.

If Vladdy was on an all-star team right now, if the rest of the Blue Jays were just hitting crazy right now, sure.

Sure, get on base at a 400 clip, you're hitting 305.
