    How does the most marginal player that ever existed get so much time? Is he even on the post season roster?
    It's us vs the rest of the country

    He isn't the first marginal player in Toronto sports history to be popular. Heck, Tie Domi was one of the most popular Leaf for years as was Brad Marsh. Matt Bonner somehow became really popular for the Raptors as well.

    I think the article I posted explains partly why he "gets so much time." He's on the 40 man roster but not active.

    90% of the Leaf players in the last 48 years have been marginal.

    LOL..the 40 man roster, but not active. So technically, he's 1 of 15 minor league players that are part of the entourage. Another thing that bugs me about baseball, is the way they change their rules (active roster size) for the last part of the season. Even when I was big into baseball, I never got that.

    If Rogers didn't own the Jays, no one would know about this "Ham and Egger".

    Domi never rode the pine like Suzuki. Anyhow , it could be argued he had the toughest job in sports i.e. avoiding fists to the face, and he did it on a nightly basis.

    Hopefully we can take care of this tomorrow. We'll see. Toronto's bats are never out of anything, but that pitching staff is not intimidating.

    KC is too deep, Toronto has no bullpen left.
    Series will end today.

    Classy.

    Why are the Blue Jays the pseudo "Canada's Team?"

    True.

    Though you are probably right, I'm hoping you're wrong. The odds are defiantly against them.

    Love that good old CFL Alive and Well...line. We used to say NFL Can Go To Hell.

    Jays look like a Beat Down team. Every time I write them off they win but I'd like to get to see another Argo game this year which is a real home date. I need to start a Rogers Sucks chant.

    It sounds like he is in actual pain saying it. English is the hardest language to learn.

    The Jays are like cockroaches as they won't die. Of course, "cockroach" is an apt description of their owner too.
