<p>Time flies! The Blue Jays acquired Troy Tulowitzki two years ago today. Even though Tulo isn&#8217;t the player he once was, it was a <em>where were you when? </em>kind of moment for Jays fans and it represents the beginning of a massive shift in the organization&#8217;s direction. Anyways, Arden Zwelling wrote an interesting thing revisiting the Tulo trade that&#8217;s worth a read.</p>

<p>The Jays seem to be on their way to a Francisco Liriano trade. The Royals are the team interested, and while he isn&#8217;t going to net much — rumour is that they&#8217;re looking to re-acquire Rule 5 guy Glenn Sparkman — it&#8217;s better than nothing for an impending free agent.</p>

<p>Who the hell is Parker Bridwell? Some guy with an ERA and record that look very good and underlying numbers that suggests it&#8217;s going to collapse sooner rather than later. He&#8217;s only striking out 5.8 batters per nine innings, which is never a good recipe for success.</p>

Keep the good times rolling! The jays are coming off a sweep of the miserable A's and they'll have an excellent opportunity to continue their unlikely climb up the standings against another not-so-good team, the L.A. Angels.
