Go Jays. - Pecafan Fan
So much fail.
As I said after the first game of the season... this team will become VERY easy to hate.
The only person I feel sorry for is Jay Happ. The guy busted his ass to make the team, has been their best pitcher since and has this collection of unmotivated, over-entitled Aholes on his team.
I can honestly say I am cheering for them to lose now. I just don't find much likable about any of the players.

I don't follow baseball, but the hype over the Jays coming into the season was so exasperating that I've been following their record... and so far, it is less than impressive.

Reyes: Hasn't been healthy since leaving NY, how can you not find an adequate back-up when picking up this fragile player...
Cabrera: Good pick-up.
Bautista: Needs to get over himself.
Encarnacion: Who knew that after one good season, he might struggle again.
Lawrie: Worth cheering for.
Arencibia: Worth cheering for.
Rasmus: Worth cheering for.
Lind: heading to AA after this season.
Bonifacio: The hype around this guy this summer was incomprehensible. It was complete rubbish and now people are starting to see it my way.
Richardey: Hadn't done anything before NY, Wonder if he'll ever do anything before returning to New York.
Buerhle: Will figure it out. But this guy is an inning-eater, not someone that will throw shut-outs.
Johnson: Will probably only start going in the second half.
Morrow: Will probably only start going in the second half.
Happ: Worth cheering for.
Bullpen: Awesome.
Gibbons: By far the worse selection possible. The Jays team he had last time lacked intensity and purpose and surprise, surprise, same thing can be said about this team. At what point do people start pointing to the common denominator here. No emotion, no give a poop factor. Sad really that you'd saddle such high hopes on such a douche.

Are you serious about Rasmus.....you wanna talk about over-hyped.
Lind is an inning killer. He's awful.
EE...actually 1.5 good seasons but your point stands.
I think the team plays better once it starts to warm up. Way to many Dominicans or Mexicans or whatever they are, on the team to play well in this cold weather. However it may be too late by then.
After listening to Cooke answer questions about the Feb. 13 incident in which his skate sliced 70% of the way through Erik Karlsson's Achilles tendon, I went to speak with other players in the room about different matters. Like every other reporter there. On the way out, I found Cooke waiting to have a word in private with me.
He wanted to tell me I have no balls. At first I think he said "small balls." But by the time he had finished, and knew Penguins GM Ray Shero was listening, he had decided I had none. Oh, and I believe he also mumbled something about me having no penis before disappearing into the players-only room, which I found interesting.
I will not take this opportunity to, ahem, brag about my manhood.
