We're a little past the halfway point through the baseball season and as a seasoned Blue Jays fan it has been going as well as can be expected. A team that flirts with a .500 winning percentage while sitting comfortably in 4th place in the always competitive AL East division. The Jays have shown that they at least have consistency when it comes to their regular season standing. Their consistent positioning in the standings has been abetted this year with something else that has sparked the interest of Jays and MLB fans alike. And that is the fact the Toronto Blue Jays are leading the league in home runs with 140 (as of July 20/10) . If this is the first time you've have heard this news let me let it settle in :The Toronto Blue Jays lead the majors in home runs! For those who have been bombarded with the Canadian sports media fascination of the Canadian Long Bomb explosion this year, you might also know that this statistical lead has not really parlayed into any major movement in the division.
