Olerud363 Old-Timey Member Posted November 2, 2014 Posted November 2, 2014 http://sports.nationalpost.com/2014/11/02/blue-jays-adam-lind-timeline-the-hills-and-valleys-of-a-career-in-toronto/?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=twitter There is actually a pretty serious accusation in here. Something about Lind's Mom asking for an MRI on his foot. OK fine, the Jays training staff messed up. But here's the really slimy part. AA asked Lind to backtrack on that because the training staff was embarassed. Is any of this true?? Did Lind's Mom ask for the MRI?? And if so did AA make Lind lie to protect the training staff>?>? If so AA should resign. Beeston too. That's outright dishonesty. It's worst then dishonesty because they are forcing someone else to lie. If that's what Rogers stands for... wow. Scary stuff. That has to be a violation of Roger's coorporate ethics. Making an employee (Lind) lie to protect other employees (the training staff). Even though those ethics are "wink wink" "made to be broken" coorporations ussually want guys like Beeston and AA to be savy about it.
Olerud363 Old-Timey Member Posted November 2, 2014 Author Posted November 2, 2014 A few months late... I hadn't heard about it. Just wondering if it is true.
dineke Old-Timey Member Posted November 2, 2014 Posted November 2, 2014 Has the Blue Jays made the playoffs yet?
Olerud363 Old-Timey Member Posted November 2, 2014 Author Posted November 2, 2014 A few months late... If true it borders on the ridiculous. Beeston - "Cito says Lind doesn't need to get an MRI. He just needs to quit wining and pull that ball." Sietzer (privately to Gibby) - "Lind can hardly walk, we need him to get that MRI." Savy Gibby - I have an idea. Savy Gibby (On the phone with Beeston) - "Didn't Cito once say "Always listen to your Mother" Beeston - "That Cito knows what he's talking about. Every boy, no matter how big, needs his Mom." Savy Gibby - "Lind's Mom says he needs to get an MRI"
guylaroche5 Verified Member Posted November 2, 2014 Posted November 2, 2014 you're only like 3 months late
Candy Maldonado Old-Timey Member Posted November 2, 2014 Posted November 2, 2014 Never heard Lind backtrack.
ElNik2013 Old-Timey Member Posted November 2, 2014 Posted November 2, 2014 Rogers is pretty happy with AA and Beeston. Attendance and ratings have increased (I think) since they've been in charge. We'll see what happens.
Olerud363 Old-Timey Member Posted November 2, 2014 Author Posted November 2, 2014 you're only like 3 months late Guilty for sure. I totally missed that story. Must of been busy with other crap....

Boxcar Old-Timey Member Posted November 3, 2014 Posted November 3, 2014 He also misses a month with a broken foot, caused by a foul ball. The injury is originally diagnosed as a bruise. Lind keeps playing in pain, then asks for an MRI, which he says his mother suggested. The MRI reveals the fracture. The team’s management and training staff are embarrassed by Lind’s reference to his mother’s role. GM Alex Anthopoulos tries to smooth over the controversy by saying Lind’s mom was not involved, and Lind backtracks. looooooooool
