The Toronto Blue Jays continued pre-season action today, clobbering the New York Yankees 9-1 with the help of young but nearly forgotten starter Shaun Marcum, who came back to pitch for the first time since 2008.
Marcum pitched two scoreless innings, allowing only one walk and striking out two, showing that the Blue Jays may have more help for the bullpen this year than has been expected since Marcum and Dustin McGowan were announced to be missing out on the entirety of the 2009 regular campaign.

The Jays are 3-1 in Grapefruit League play so far, but we all know the real deal doesn't start until the regular season... Or for fans who remember the Blue Bird's collapse last year in May after being number one in Major League Standings for all of April, not until October.
