  1. Their dollars count just as much as anyone. It doesn't matter if they don't attain your own arbitrary definition of fan. That's finally starting now, but that's why people have been upset with Rogers.
  2. I assume the Mets and Yankees would veto that.
  3. Yeah but that's offset by the huge population of Toronto, and southern Ontario generally. There are more than enough fans to make this a large market team, since it's the only team in the country.
  4. Yeah this team isn't relocating. They couldn't move it to a place that's better than where they are now.
  5. So Mottola is out, but Pete Walker returns?
  6. That's not surprising to me about Rasmus' homers. Went he hit one, you knew it right away.
  7. Well I wouldn't say that. Last year all first round series went the distance.
  8. Cleveland won their last 10 regular season games to get to this point. Would be tough to lose now.
  9. Better crank up the random number generator....
  10. Looks like we're gonna be having a Texas-Tampa game 163 tomorrow. Play-in game to get to the play-in game.
  11. This. The problem with Rivera is the problem with closers, which is the problem with relief pitchers generally. They just don't pitch enough to accrue that much value individually. And like you said, they're all pretty much failed starters. Even if Rivera is the greatest reliever ever, where does that put him among all pitchers ever? Pretty far down the list, actually. Let alone adding in position players. Here's a thought experiment: if Rivera is really among the greatest players ever, and "the closer" is really so important, then the Dodgers are being pretty stupid wasting Clayton Kershaw as a starter, no? He's the best pitcher on that team, everyone would agree. They should give up his 7-8+ innings each start and put him in the pen where he throws 1 inning at a time. But of course that would be stupid. By that same logic the Jays were wasting Halladay all those years as a starter throwing 230 innings, when they could have had him as the closer throwing like 65 innings a year.
  12. Yeah, Cano's not getting that. Interesting to see what NY does this off season.
  13. He sounds like Buck Martinez.
