NLDS: Reds-Giants

The money spent by the Blue Jays to retain Dustin McGowan may not be about the injury-prone pitcher, but about the loss of Chris Carpenter, who Toronto let walk under similar circumstances and came to regret it.

Toronto had a chance to take the early lead against the New York Yankees, but a deflating mental mistake by the Blue Jays’ on-field leader displayed the team's lack of focus.
