Exactly how I felt at the end of yesterday's game...YES!!!!!

Today's pitchers are Toronto's Josh Johnson going up against Texas' Justin Grimm. Josh threw 7 innings against the Giants, in his first start back from the DL. The Jays need him to go deep again, since they used everyone in the bullpen yesterday and no one wants to see Thad Weber pitch a bunch of innings.
