I am back and I am pissed

Let's start off with how the Jays finished their season, shall we.

Horrible, limped home with no pride, no passion, going through the motions, if Farrell had not been sought by the Red Sox, I'd have fired his ass.

The Escobar thing was bungled by all the coaches and senior staff, and on his watch. Then Omar Vizquel takes a swipe at Farrell, and questioned his leadership skills and maybe his man hood, so John see how you make out in Beantown when the scribes watch you dot every I and cross every T.

Making matters worse, was this merry go round after the season, dealing Farrell plus a pitcher no less for Mike Aviles, who could have played second, but was instantly peddled with Yan Gomes ( and what did he do to piss off the team ) to Cleveland for Esmail Rogers, who is no as good as the kid we sent to Boston.

AA states this Rogers guy ( gee one wonders why Rogers gets a bad rap ) with no apparent track record is added either to the bullpen or the rotation ( he's failed miserably at either end ) because Carlos Villaneuva was dismissed as a starter candidate in early September by who...John Freaking Farrell, same guy who's high tailed to Boston.

So we pissed off Carlos, and what is our rotation looking like.

Okay ...Brandon Morrow is fine, so long as he stays healthy and does not blow his arm out
After that, we have an injured Rickey Romeo, ( I will save some print space for that later )
and who else ??

Happ is gone, and was he worth the trouble of 20 man super deal with Houston, I think not. There was a reason Philly gave him up, and we have learned it.
McGowan, don't make me laugh.
Hutch & Drabek are wounded for 2013....so nope.

I hear the crickets out there, c'mon people who is part of our rotation ???

Esmail Rogers ?   Brad Lincoln ? Henderson Al;avarez ?

Now we hear that Brandon Lyon and Jason Fraser are too expensive so we'll part company with them.

Sounds like another rebuild of the bullpen, but let's keep 40 something Darren Oliver.

Okay, then Farrell takes Lovello and Butterield with him, and we are starting an America's Got Talent roadshow looking for the next manager, and the name that crops up is Mike Hargrove.

On July 1, 2007, Hargrove resigned his position as manager of the Mariners, saying in a prepared statement that his "passion has begun to fade" and it would not be "fair to myself or the team" to continue. The departure was unusual, since the Mariners had been playing quite well at the time.

This is the guy ?

This team just spent money, and the balloons were sent tot he ceiling as Micey Izturis is now th enew Mike McCoy / Vizquel. $ 9 million over 3 years for adefensive replacement.
Then, in a move only found in a Harold Robbins novel, we sent cash, bags of to KC for Jeremy Jeffires, a twice suspended ( for drug use ) fireballer.  He has huge upside Alex is quoted, which likely is not in reference to his drug use.

If I was KC I would have sold him to the Rockies, cause at least in 81 home games he smoke up in the pen legally.

Am I bitter, you damn right I am, this organisation has become a joke, and they are making the Leafs and Raptors quite happy to take the heat off them.  By the by folks, Leafs still undeated this year.




Who is one 1st ?
The first baseman
No I mean who is on first ?
Yes he is.





You know I understand that old comedy routine better than I understand what the Jays are all about.

More to come.
