Given Halladay's departure and the inevitable slow public realization that the Jays are going to be one of the worst teams in the league this year, I'd set the over under at 10,500.
Here are some potential bad games on the schedule:
Wed, April 21st 12:30pm vs. KC
Tue, May 18th, 12:30pm vs. SEA
Mon/Tue/Wed, July 26-28 vs. BAL
Tue/Wed/Thurs, September 7-9 vs TEX
Thurs, Sep 23rd, 12:30pm vs. SEA
5 games already have been between 10,000 and 11,000. Season low so far is 10,314 on Monday April 19th against the Royals. 9,000 doesn't look entirely unreasonable right now.
