How aboot those Blue Jays, eh?
Turns out there may be more at work up in the Great White North than the baseball gods.
http://finance.yahoo.com/news/mystery-blue-jays-sudden-home-192324537.html
The Toronto Blue Jays are one of the biggest surprises in baseball this season with the second-best record in the American League, thanks in large part to an offense that is hitting tons of home runs in an era when home runs are down.
But what is curious about the Blue Jays is that the offensive increase in production has come with almost the same lineup as last year....
A team playing indoors can also make slight adjustments to the air conditioning that could have a huge impact on how far baseballs travel.
There is no evidence that the Blue Jays have adjusted the air conditioning. But by keeping the roof shut it appears that the Blue Jays have transformed their ballpark into Coors Field East.
