Start Your Engines (And Heaters)
2008-02-28 15:17:00
With the wind chill in Toronto today, the temperature feels like -25 degrees Celsius. The outside of my house this morning has all the convivial appeal of a meat locker with the frozen bloody corpses of anyone I ever cared about dangling from meat hooks.Oh, and the Toronto Blue Jays begin their exhibition schedule this afternoon against the Detroit Tigers. Obviously, this couldn't come at a better time. Even our distaste for cold weather has been frozen over as temperatures continue to drop faster than Scott Spezio's fantasy value.Jesse Litsch will start the game for the Jays in Lakeland against Detroit left hander and goggle wearer Nate Robertson.According to the Globe and Mail's Robert MacLeod, the rest of the lucky travel squad includes:Pitchers: Josh Banks, Shaun Camp, Lance Carter, Gustavo Chacin, Mike Gosling, Jean Machi, David Purcey and James Vermilyea.Catcher: Rod Barajas, Curtis Thigpen, John Schneider.Infielders: Russ Adams, Chip Cannon, Joe Inglett, Pedro Lopez, Jo...

Yee-Haw! The Jays Is On TBS!
2008-02-27 21:00:00
The brain trust at TBS (pictured above) have released the first part of the schedule for their inauguaral season of Sunday Afternoon Baseball. Apparently they've taken Chris Berman's advice to heart and have decided to load up early on deux-deux-deuxs, because it turns out they'll be kicking things off at Rogers Centre. Frankly, I can't really blame them. I imagine it would require many suitcases full of codeine for a man to endure the prospect of spending every Sunday for six months with Chip Caray. Or Skip Carey. Whoever the fuck it is. Jesus... either one of them.Adding immensely to the entertainment that afternoon will be the fact that this is "one of them games whar they's sold tickets to t'other team." Yes, the date in question is April 6th, and Jays ' opponents will be the Boston Red Sox. If everything goes the way I expect, the stands will be full of Massholes in the grip of their first Berman-inspired dance with "Canadian Aspirin."Oh man! This has so much potential to...

Halladay Admires Sundin
2008-02-27 20:50:00
I can't decide whether I think it's more completely fucked that the Toronto Sun has managed to take an article about the Jays best player and make it about Mats Sundin, or if it's mostly completely fucking typical. Whatever the case, they did it anyway. And it actually should be of some comfort to Jays fans-- particularly the hysterical ones-- to know how much Roy admires Sundin's decision to stay with the Leafs. So, I guess... good on the Sun?Well, let's not go nuts."It's just a matter of pride and wanting to be a part of an organization and a city that you're comfortable with. You want to feel like you've earned it, not had it handed to you."The longer you're with a team, the more you want to win with that team and do something special," Halladay said. "It becomes every player's goal after a period of time. It's definitely understandable and there's something special about being with a team that long and accomplishing something."It says something about yourself and tha...

The Doctor

As we're all aware, Roy Halladay is either a robot or a wizard.According to the Toronto Star's Cathal Kelly, via our friend at Mop Up Duty, Halladay will often go out of his way to convince fans and teammates he has a human heart.Take the other day for instance, Halladay invited a young kid who is stricken with a deadly form of leukemia to Spring Training. He played catch with the youngster, grabbed him duffel bags of swag and even gave him an emotional hug before he left with his parents.Unfortunately for Halladay, his actions only confirm the rumours of his inhumanity. Regular humans quite simply can't balance outrageous success and good works the way that Halladay does.In addition to his work with leukemia victims, prior to last season, Halladay had won the previous three Blue Jays Roberto Clemente awards for his dedication and commitment to less fortunate children in the local community.Halladay was also recently scheduled to participate in a local family planning charity e...

MLB Trade Rumors Shows Love for the A-Dog!
2008-02-26 18:46:00
I don't even know if this is true or not, but in a report on Orlando Hudson's contract status, one of the most invaluable sites out there (i.e. they're so valuable, they're invaluable), MLB Trade Rumors , suggests that "perhaps only Aaron Hill can rival Hudson's second base defense." Swoon!In other news, I just ripped off a "joke" (and I use the term loosely) from a move from 1986. El Guapo would be proud.

It's All Starting Now Baby Blue
2008-02-26 16:26:00
According to Jordan Bastian at the bottom of his latest mailbag column, the Toronto Blue Jays home opener against the Boston Red Sox will mark the official debut of the retro baby blue uniforms.The classy new kits will be worn during every Friday home game, suitably integrated into the Flashback Fridays promotion.While the beauty of the uniforms stimulates areas of my body that I never thought could be affected by clothing, the Tao of Stieb's hard on for aesthetics at the ballpark has led to some excellent coverage of the Jays uniforms for the coming season.For those planning on attending the home opener, I'd like to remind you to please refrain from heckling the opposing players. These guys are Major League ballplayers. They know ridicule is nothing to be afraid of. Bottles full of your own piss on the other hand . . .Of course, I'm only kidding. There, that should save any potential legal problems.

LF Competition Over Before It Starts?
2008-02-26 07:22:00
I'd like to think that I'm not the type of guy who would take a small tidbit of information from another blog and then extrapolate from it a wild rumour that will ultimately wind up having to be repeatedly denied by the player involved, Jays management, and re-contextualized so often by the blogger who originally published it that he wants to punch me in the ear.I'd like to think I'm not that type of guy, but apparently I am.Why, you ask? Because I'm about to point out that our friend Dave Rouleau has finally made it down to Dunedin to continue-- straight from the source!-- his excellent work at Baseball Digest Daily, and one of the first things he observed upon landing (er... parking) in the land of 3:30 dinners and white pants hiked up to the tits was Shannon Stewart limping his way out of a hotel elevator.Limping, you say? Perhaps that is simply the reality of everyday life for a guy who has struggled through foot injuries in recent years. Or maybe the guy is damaged goods a...

Market for Johnson "Non-Existent", Speculation on Lind
2008-02-25 22:20:00
Well, here we go, I'm parroting something that you could just as easily read on the Globe's blog, but what the hell...Jeff Blair is reporting that, according to an unnamed front-office source, the market for Reed is "non-existent". Well stop the fucking presses! The guy who had major back surgery and then came back to post a 235/302/309 second half? And you mean they're not knocking down JP's door?Now, I don't say that to knock Blair, because it's obviously something worth reporting. It's just completely unsurprising.What's more interesting, though, is that Blair suggests the added insurance of Stewart might put Lind on the table. "Might", he says.Considering how quickly Travis Snider has risen through the ranks (he's already a Reggie Cleveland All-Star, along with catching prospect Curtis Thigpen and my personal favourite, Mario Balotelli of Inter Milan), maybe there's some merit to the idea. But I would tend to think that it's better not to sell low on Lindy.Oh, and spe...

Like Father Like Son
2008-02-25 20:01:00
Blue Jays GM J.P. Ricciardi recently taught his nine year old son, Mariano, a very valuable lesson: It's not worth gambling a mere $100 on a hockey game when you can risk a minor league contract on a quality left fielder.Shaun "North of Steeles" Marcum wagered with young Mariano that if the Tampa Bay Lightning beat the Boston Bruins on Saturday night, he would have to approach his dad on Marcum's behalf for a five year contract. If the Bruins won, Marcum would owe the young punter $100.The Bruins beat the Lighting 5-3 on Saturday and Marcum made good with an installment plan, and the first of two $50 payments to Mariano. Unfortunately, spoil sport Assistant GM Bart Given brought the friendly bet to Ricciardi's attention, and Mariano was promptly ordered to pay Marcum back.A few hours later, it was announced that Shannon Stewart had signed a minor league contract with the Toronto Blue Jays. The deal will give Stewart $1.5 million plus playing time incentives if he makes the te...

February Laments and Random Stuff
2008-02-25 04:22:00
After getting geared up for spring training over the course of the past couple of months, right now I'm finding myself hit with a very distinct, Boxing Day day sort of malaise. Maybe this is only something that my fellow bloggers can relate to, but after struggling all winter to quench the thirst for Jays knowledge, suddenly mid-February hits and we're being swept away in a pointless torrent.The Jays are sequestered down in Florida where only a handful of dedicated, affluent fans can see them. The rest of us rely on the newspapers and other media types, who are each covering the same fairly basic details of camp. The pace at which the ol' hacks have been blogging and filing stories has been frenetic, which is a good thing, and they're doing a fine job down there, it's just... it makes it a whole lot harder for us to find anything useful to say.Sadly, nobody had the balls to pony up the coin to send us down to Dunedin on some sort of gonzo mission.During the winter, all the act...

Weekend Jays Randomness
2008-01-20 00:13:00
(How can you laugh) When you know I'm Downs?According to Jonathan Hale of Baseball Digest Daily, Scott Downs broke his lengthy media silence on Friday, speaking at a conference call in the wake of signing what he called a "life changing" contract. I'd be lying if I said I wasn't happy for the guy. Downs has been a reliable, hard-working, and healthy part of the Jays for the past two seasons. In '07 not only did he lead the American League in appearances, but his pitching was fantastic. Still, I'm a little puzzled by all this-- which isn't to say that I wouldn't have made the deal had I been in Ricciardi's shoes, rather, I'm surprised that JP actually did it.In defense of the deal Ricciardi poked around his closet and found this snazzy little cliche: "Sometimes you prefer the animal you have, instead of trying to recreate that," also noting that the market for relievers is going "through the roof."Put that way, the contract makes a little more sense. It just seems odd that t...

JP Has Downs Syndrome!
2008-01-18 07:33:00
If you're a regular reader of this site you probably recognize that it's rare when I'm wrong-- and if you're like me, you'll be saddened to learn that I'm actually going to have to own up to something tonight that didn't quite go the way I saw it. On Thursday the Jays avoided arbitration with five players, notably signing Scott Downs to a three year deal worth $10 m.I realize that saying this is kind of "typical Hall-of-Fame-voter fuckface" of me, but I just don't FEEL like Scott Downs is a great reliever. I see all those nice numbers and everything, but I can't shake the feeling that underneath that emo haircut and that 2.17 ERA is a truly shitty pitcher yearning to break free.In fact, I was so sure of my instincts about Downs that when I saw in October that he'd been rated a Type A free agent, I wrote that "if he has another stellar year and maintains his status, you can bank on the Jays GM-- JP or otherwise-- letting Downs walk and taking a couple of picks."Like just ab...

Six Down One To Go
2008-01-18 06:52:00
In case you haven't heard, during J.P. Ricciardi's tenure as Toronto Blue Jays GM, no eligible player has ever gone to arbitration for a new contract. Also, Matt Stairs is from New Brunswick and Frank Thomas hit his five hundredth home run last season.The much-mentioned streak is well on its way to continuing after Gustavo Chacin, Scott Downs, Jason Frasor, Marco Scutaro and Brian Tallet all joined Reed Johnson in signing contracts prior to arbitration. The only eligible player remaining is Alex Rios, who is currently negotiating a long-term deal with the Jays.While overall, news of the signings are every bit as shocking as a Britney Spears drug addled mental lapse, I was surprised to learn that left handed reliever Scott Downs was offered a multi year deal worth $10 million over three seasons.Downs, 31, was used more than unintelligible language by John Gibbons last season, appearing 81 times for the Jays. That's a lot, and although Downs has pitched well the last two seasons...

Doin' The Troy Glaus
2008-01-18 06:09:00
Many thanks go out to our new found friends at Ghostrunner on First for finding this delightful video that explains what Troy Glaus meant to the typical Toronto sports fan.If that's doin' the Troy Glaus , I'm going to go ahead and claim that doin' the Scott Rolen is getting sick in your own scorn or else just making fun of people who believe it to be SO OUTRAGEOUS that they're awake at 2:50 a.m. Although that achievement pretty much takes care of itself.Update: It just got a whole lot better. After looking up the genetic cul de sac who submitted this video to YouTube, I found that his handle is "dnolan420." Of course this makes perfect sense because coming from a handle with "420" in it, this clip is everything I would expect and less.In an unrelated note, when I post videos of my threesomes (which I call doin' the Alex Rios), I post them under the handle Dr_Shocker_69.

How Will The Kids React?
2008-01-17 16:41:00
As reported by The Tao Of Stieb way back in October, the Syracuse Chiefs marriage to the Toronto Blue Jays is on the rocks.There's a new bona fide suitor in Upstate New York, and backed by a senator, the New York Mets seem to have more in common and be a better fit for the Jays Minor League affiliate of 31 years.When not complaining about Mr. Smith's filibusters, Democratic Senator Charles Schumer is doing his best to convince Mets officials that Syracuse would be an ideal location for their farm club.The Mets current Triple A affiliate is located in New Orleans, but that contract expires at the end of 2008, just as the Jays contract with Syracuse comes to an end.While in all honesty, I couldn't possibly care less where the Jays locate their farm teams, I do like to drunkenly talk with friends about weekend road trips that will never happen. At least these imaginary journeys to Syracuse and New Hampshire exist in the realm of possibility, whereas the journey to New Orleans is s...

Coroner Finds Cause

As Stoeten mentioned when Joe Kennedy's death was first made public, we tend to be fairly big dickheads about a lot of stuff. So, it's probably best to keep posts related to death short and not so sweet.A coroner's report that was released yesterday in Hillsborough County found that Kennedy's death, at the age of 28, was related to a pre-existing, undiscovered heart condition.The former Jays pitcher collapsed and died in late November, and our thoughts continue to be with his family.

Where Do I Get My Firty-Free Scott Rolen Jersey?
2008-01-16 21:48:00
While Stoeten's excellent review of the Rolen press conference made anything I could possibly imagine saying redundant (or oxymoronic as Stoeten would put it), I still have one thought on the whole affair that I wanted to talk about.If there were any worries that the Jays were getting the exact same player they were giving up in the Rolen-Glaus deal, those fears were laid to rest as soon as Rolen spoke for the first time as a Blue Jay. Rolen exhibited more personality and charisma in his first forty-five minutes with the Toronto media than Troy Glaus did in his entire time here.Between cracking jokes about J.P. Ricciardi's choice of clothing and self-deprecating comments on his recent injuries, Rolen offered fans an excellent anecdote for the reasoning behind his new jersey number with the Jays.The story goes that Rolen and his wife sat their three year old daughter Raine down with a list of possible numbers on a piece of paper. As the new third baseman tells it, she chose numbe...

JP Ricciardi is Smarter Than You
2008-01-16 05:21:00
Hey, look at me, I like to pretend I enjoy baseball. I can't be bothered to learn why the dumb manager would bring in a left-handed pitcher to face David Ortiz when there was already a perfectly good guy on the mound, but I do like to cheer when my team scores runs. I also get mad when the dumb manager makes my team give them up. I like to go to games and talk about the things I see the way the guys on TV do. When a runner steals a base, it makes me angry. Even if he doesn't score. I boo my favourite players when they make mistakes, because favourite players shouldn't be human. I also think lying is bad. Sometimes people lie and it makes me feel sad, even when I know it's for my own good. I don't like liars, because they don't have heart and grit and that's what makes people win. I'm also fugly and boring as shit (or possibly attractive in a mildly retarded frat boy (redundant?) kind of way, and dumb as shit.

Glaus Asked to be Traded
2008-01-15 20:18:00
MLB Trade Rumors is citing a Buster Olney piece from ESPN that says Troy Glaus requested a trade "several months ago".The Olney article is one of ESPN's fancy "Insider" things, which is exactly the kind of bullshit that makes me a reader of CNNSI and Fox Sports. The report says "Ricciardi made no promises, and set about finding good value for Glaus. Glaus had wanted to play for St. Louis for years, and Scott Rolen's rift with Tony La Russa created an opportunity."The primary motivation for the request, though, was that Glaus wanted to get away from the Rogers Centre's field turf, which he was famously sold on by Reed Johnson prior to waiving his no-trade clause to come here in the first place.That all sounds fair enough to me, and maybe big respect should go Glaus's way for doing this quietly, but probably not. It seems just as likely that we hadn't heard of his request because nobody wanted it to turn into a circus, and because Glaus and his people knew that any lost leverage...

Why You're Wrong About the Cards Winning the Glaus for Rolen Deal (and I'm
2008-01-15 04:51:00
By now we're all aware that the Jays trade of Troy Glaus to the St. Louis Cardinals for Scott Rolen has been made official. A lot of people are still a bit confused over this one, so let's try to sort through this mess once and for all.Thing is, even though the majority seem to think this one is a wash, I've seen a noticeable minority of people calling this trade a win for the Cards and I just don't think that adds up.First of all, some of those who don't like how the Jays have fared are doing so only because they somehow believe that Rolen is a bigger health risk, which is horseshit. At this point stuff like that is entirely unknowable.Still others don't like the deal because they hate JP Ricciardi and find that his deceptions confuse them and hurt their little feelings. These people, as usual, can just be ignored.Among people with valid opinions, so far there has been a lot of focus on the fact that Glaus is supposedly the better hitter. For example, the excellent Cards blog...

Memories Of The Son Of Karen
2008-01-14 06:06:00
Try as I might, I can't shed a tear for Troy Glaus' departure from Toronto.Glaus and Scott Rolen are expected to pass their respective physicals today to seal the deal on a swap of third basemen between our beloved Blue Jays and the St. Louis Cardinals.There's no question that ol' Troy Boy met all of the expectations that were put on him when he first came to Toronto. It would be difficult or else erroneous to feel anything resembling disappointment in the giant third baseman's performance. Yet, I still can't feel the slightest bit sorry to see him go.I wish I could point to the loss of Orlando Hudson or Glaus' lack of interaction with the media for my lack of emotion, but I still think the O-Dawg deal was a good one and B.J. Ryan, Mr. Prepared Statement himself, remains one of my favourite Jays.So, what's a blogger to do?

The Jays Finally Did Something (Pending Physicals)
2008-01-12 22:05:00
So much for a Saturday of soccer. I was sitting around the house, surprisingly feeling none too hung over, suffering through a game between Manchester United and Newcastle-- neither of whom I give two shits about-- waiting for PSV against Feyenoord to start. But then something happened...I couldn't take another second of that fucking pouting, diving woman Cristiano Ronaldo. Apparently I forgot how fucking annoying it is to watch that little bitch cry his way over the field. (Sorry Portugese friends, I know he's really amazingly good but what a piece of shit!)At half time I decided to make an early trip to the beer store, which I figured would take up a good portion of the second half as well. Around that point soccer becomes pretty much completely irrelevant to this story, and I don't really know why I started my thoughts on the Jays finally making a big move by mentioning it, except that I really wanted to call Ronaldo a woman-- because, y'know, that's real original.Anywho, f...

Troy Rolen For Scott Glaus?
2008-01-12 19:17:00
Normally, when I use terms like swap and third base in the same sentence, I'd be referring to my Friday night, not men in their early thirties. However, Kenny Ken Ken (Rosenthal) is reporting that the Toronto Blue Jays and the St. Louis Cardinals are close to swapping third basemen.I'm not sure if I read it on a ridiculous message board (is there any other kind), but I remember hearing about this proposed deal earlier in the offseason. Back then my first reaction was "Why? Aren't those guys the same players?"From a St. Louis perspective I understand how this deal might be appealing. Tony LaRussa and Scott Rolen get along about as well as Tony LaRussa and a drunk tank, which is to say not very well. Rolen is also coming off shoulder surgery and a dramatic loss of power last season.Glaus for his part, looked lethargic in the field last year, suffering through heel and foot injuries that resulted in season ending surgery in September.

Now, normally I wouldn't pay this rag any mind but it's been kind of difficult not to notice their Clemens-friendly headlines over the past couple of days-- Wednesday's "Rocket clean in T.O." and today, "Ex Jays defend Rocket".Even though the position they've taken is completely unsurprising, considering they seem to come out on the fucking douche bag side of everything, this is pretty friggin' ridiculous. For one thing, since when was "fellow union members stick up for each other" or "chiropractor says some bullshit" news?Yeah, it's really fucking compelling stuff that ballplayers wouldn't break ranks and talk shit about their disgraced former teammate. After how cooperative they were with Senator Mitchell's investigators, I figured they were ready to start dishing all sorts of dirt on each other.

The Sporting News Employs Morons
2008-01-10 19:51:00
Some keen baseball eye named Gerry Fraley had an interesting piece in the Sporting News on Tuesday, ranking the rotations in the American League.The Jays placed fourth, which should seem pretty reasonable unless you're some kind of delusional Rays fan (they came 10th, big guy). The Indians, Red Sox and Angels topped the list, and then things got interesting. And by interesting, I mean fucking retarded."Justifying" the Jays' 4th place position on the list, Fraley wrote: "Halladay, Burnett and McGowan are ground-ball machines and will be big winners if new SS David Eckstein improves a mediocre infield defense."Well thanks for paying attention, Ger, you fucking dipshit. I'll say it anyway, even though I certainly don't have to remind anyone around here, but last year's infield defense pretty much gave us all boners-- even Joanna from Hum and Chuck.How does this moron have a job?
