Navarro is a starter for many other teams in this league. Lucky to have his switch hitting bat, with some power and precision. Can he really be as bad as Martin in game 2? Then theres No need to mess with the Estrada-Dioneer karma.
Jays are two plays away from leading this series 2-0. Theres razor thin difference these games between winner and loser, statistics aside
You and others here and those ive met at the do e worry too much about casual fans. Theyre the ones who make the current spending possible to continue in the future. This board is so f***ed at times....everyone becomes a fan of a team at some point. There isnt a Canadian NFL fan who wouldnt be considered Band wagon jumper at some point. I started watching Jay games in 83 at age 11, they were just starting to build momentum. As far as im concerned everyone who came afterwards coukd be considered a bandwagon or fairweather fan, so what. Good for them, the more the merrier. No one was born with inbred baseball knowledge that puts them higher on some kind fandum heirarchy.
Not including post season, estimated Jays will make $20M in profits after losing $18M in 2014. Those 2015 esitmates include additional payroll costs of aquired players, offset by increased revenues in ticket sales, advertising and 25,000 jerseys sold in last 60 days.

Sorry if this was posted elsewhere, didnt see it
The beer guy kept bringing out 3 cases of 24 and sat in aisle dealing out. Did that about 10 times easy before 7th. The fours guy behind us said they spent $120 each on beer. Oh man the drinkers really are there for a party, makes for a loud atmosphere. When the 6-4 run scored it was completely silent for 2 seconds.
Only 1 out generated by jay hitters on 3-0 counts, martin in B4, score was 3-3, 2 out, bases empty, ground out 2B-1B.
Pillars GIDP RBI in bottom 2 was 2-0 count. Trailing 3-2, runners 1st/3rd, 0 outs, texas conceeds run to kill rally.
Cecil says it was just muscle, should heal in time for spring training. No surgery. Felt the pop on the first step then doesnt remember making tag. Heal up, hope he picks up where he left off.
The carpet is the only true home field advantage. Jays have 81 games on it, Rangers just a handful. An open dome is an equal for both trams, not an advantage for Toronto.
Totally agree, was stunned Navarro wasnt at the plate for Goins, but roght now Stroman is the best arm avail. If you burn him out to win the alds, so be it. It win time baby
