Toronto Blue Jays midseason review
The Toronto Blue Jays were supposedly in rebuilding mode, but you wouldn’t know it from their hot start in the first half.
The team traded away pitcher Roy Halladay for a host of prospects in the offseason, looking to improve their farm system.
Instead, the team has gotten outstanding starting pitcher and surprising explosiveness from their offense.
Outfielder Vernon Wells is finally 100 percent healthy and has bounced back this year in a big way.
The team has also gotten a surprising jolt from third baseman Jose Bautista, one of the league leaders in home runs.
