You guys remember in Spring Training when there was discussion on whether or not Daric Barton and/or spring training hero Caleb Gindl should make the team? Both have been terrible in AAA.

Expect most of the ALCS games to be moved to Fox Sports 1 if the Jays make it to the ALCS.

[BlueJayWay]

The bottom of the ninth peaked at over 3 million viewers for Tulo's AB. Wish that could have been a walk off.

What does a leafs game on sportsnet get??

Not entirely sure, but I think a typical number I've seen is about a million. I think the Saturday night CBC games are like 1.5

“Before I came here, this was a place where I never wanted to play,’’ Buehrle said. “There was no chance of me signing in Toronto. You come here as a visitor, and you have the customs, trying to figure out your phone bills, the money exchange, the temperature readings.

 

“But now that I’ve played here, it’s been so great. It’s just such a great place to live and play. They make it so comfortable for you.’’

[HERPDERP]

If the new guys weren’t making their presence felt on the field, it was in the clubhouse. Just a few days after Tulowitzki’s arrival, Blue Jays third base coach Luis Rivera found a custom, personally engraved watch in his locker. It was from Tulowitzki, showing his appreciation for Rivera giving up his uniform number (2) to him.

Those honest comments from Mark B are some real blunt insights into why its so hard to sign FAs here at an elemental level.

I haven't heard anything. I imagine they'll wait to see how his arm responds before announcing a timeline.

[GD]

He's fine, he threw another session yesterday or today.

[DuckDuckGose]

He threw today and he's scheduled for Aug 21st. I was more thinking after the 21st.
