Hey @colinmurray1.bsky.social, since when @torontobluejays.bsky.social became a decent team. I swear when I last looked they were well below 500. Worked out they are something like 22-10 in last 32 games?🤔

Can @colinmurray1.bsky.social explain if @torontobluejays.bsky.social 8-6 to start the season (2nd in AL east) is good, bad or indifferent?🤔
