Well it must be August, and we are well out of the race here in Toronto, that's a mouth full, we've been out quite a long time, but like Charlie, we refused as Blue Jays Nation to face reality. Perhaps the wave of injuries to positional players, Jose, JP, Lawrie, Rasmus, and Lind was enough to seek medical help, or admit we are done.
In August, if you ain't in contention, it is time for gimmicks. Dog Day, Thunder Stixx Day, more bobbleheads, free ice cream, sausage races ( careful there, it has proven dangerous ) just to name a few attempts. Now singers and movie stars, hell the Cubs have been trotting out Will Ferrel and Bill Murray for years. Obama couldn't resurrect the Cubbies.
Charlie has seen better days... his attempt was a bit off, like the actor. But no blow ups, but Sheen took shots at Canada Customs, ( can't say I blame him there ).
Time for the Jays to start selling hope rather than ice cream and actors, so the Ninja proclaims we have an All Star bullpen and starting 9, which I ask you , is that a stretch ( sit down Micheal ) . I think I agree more with Greg Zaun ( part lunatic himself ) when he disagrees with AA, by saying it is a good line up, but it wilts when they face a Verlander, Sabathia or Hernandez. I am forced to agree the point.
Real pitchers in action against the Tampa Bay Rays tosses Mariners first team perfect game.
