If you have been sleeping through most of this yawn-season, you might not actually recognize some names arriving in Dunedin to try to make the Opening Day 25-man cut. As you all know, the only 2015/16 leftovers are Marcus Stroman, Aaron Sanchez, Kevin Pillar, Joe Biagini, Ryan Tepera, Justin Smoak, Devon Travis, and Mr. ‘left…
It’s Family Day weekend in most parts of Canada, and the thicc-est member of the Blue Jays family has arrived today. The 80-bat king of the sons is ready to murder some grapefruit balls, as every fan continues to gush and take hard swigs from the bottle of Vlad.
Imagine a baseball organization that went out and spent money just because they could? Wouldn’t that be some cool shit? Imagine being a fan of a team that doesn’t give a shit about the luxury tax? Wouldn’t that be some cooler shit? Imagine the two best 26-year-old free agents not being signed by the time…
As the ice pelts our faces and winter hurricanes throw their big winter middle fingers at every person living in cold regions on this planet, (most of) the best baseball players are heading south to Florida to rip and flippin’ roar on the diamonds – trying to impress their skip for a roster spot.
There is nothing better than winter days, snowstorms, and the cold air eating your face. I mean, what Canadian doesn’t love to wake up in the early morning to the beautiful dark sky? And what Canadian doesn’t love to leave work to the beautiful dark sky, too? It sincerely is the most wonderful time of…
Reader discretion: This is a satirical post that may offend some readers. There is graphic content in this text of explicit sexual nature and risible thought. Jays fans have been banging the ‘sign Bryce Harper you cowards’ drum all offseason. And now some fans are even banging the ‘sign Manny Machado you cowards’ drum, too….
(I decided to take a month off because of the long season ahead and because I needed to get away from the noise for a bit, to be honest. But, it’s time to get back in the mix again. Here’s an offseason fictional tale for you on this January day.) *** A neon Coors Light…
When I was a kid, I grew up on Roehampton Avenue in St. Catharines. A small street in the North End of Niagara’s capital city, or something like that. It was only a couple of blocks from Facer St., which is still home to St. Joseph’s Bakery where you will find the best slice of…
It wasn’t that long ago when Aaron Sanchez was a part of a three-headed pitching monster in Lansing, as Sanchez, Nicolino, and Syndergaard dominated Low-A ball in the Midwest League back in 2012. And while the three-headed monster was making noise in Michigan’s capital like some 2K12 ‘Ho Hey’ folk rock band, Marcus Stroman, who…
There really isn’t much offseason stuff happening when it comes to the Jays as of right now. And all of this is totally fine because we’re only in the first week of December and soon the Winter Meeting will begin…
…SO as you all know by now the Blue Jays are apparently interested in Dallas Keuchel according to Jon Heyman, who has to keep the hot stove burning as big free agents continue to sit on the shelf like a bad Phil Collins album.
It’s fun to stare off into nowhere land and dream about being somewhere else. Maybe somewhere tropical, or somewhere that’s just far enough away from it all. It’s fun not to think about work and what has to be done. It’s fun to do anything other than some mundane office task, or whatever kind of…
