2015 Toronto Blue Jays thread

[Kin]

Shoot.

 

[Peter D.]

What in the blue...

I guess that means both Norris and Sanchez can pitch in the rotation........nice things.  Toronto fans are not allowed to have them.

Sprinkler nozzle?

In case you're wondering if this team is actually cursed, AA is about to address the media with "significant announcement" - rumours that it's very bad news.

Welp.  See ya later guys.  I'm out.  Bye.  Night.

‏@BlueJays 

Marcus Stroman as suffered a torn left ACL and will be out for the 2015 season.

 

[Derk]

Really? For crying out loud.

 

[GhostofPotvin29]

At least there's still the Raptors, right? Right?

*Looks at their 2015 record*

 

[pmrules]

That's soooo Toronto.

This city is cursed. 

I'm not a big twitter guy, but I've been following Marcus throughout the off season - this kid was ready and excited to make an impact this year.  You can see it in virtually every tweet.

 

[Andy007]

Wow. They needed pitching even with him in the rotation. This is going to be a looooong year (again).

Because...why not?

Remove his sneeze meniscus?

Baseball the only sport where players get hurt watching highlights.

 

[Captain Canuck]

Fear not AA has signed us Randy Wolf who is 38 1/2 and had Tommy John surgery TWICE! Who needs Stroman?

Meet the "Van Man & Shaggy" a.k.a. Blue Jays pitching prospect Daniel Norris...unorthodox indeed:

Still got some room in the OK Blue Jays Yahoo head to head pool which draft next Sunday. Hit me up if interested.

 

[Bill_Berg]

Delabar sent to the minors. Presumably to allow room for Osuna and Castro, both young guys. Delabar is a former allstar, but the Jays don't have to put him on waivers. Interesting move. There's a lot of weight being put on young arms this year.

Sounds like Delabar just got squeezed out due to his convenient contract and less than convincing recent performance. I expect he'll be at the top of the call up list when an arm eventually goes down. Also a chance for Drabek to make a mark, or pack his bags.

Ya, I expect Delabar to be back up with the Jays pretty soon too.

So with Delabar being sent down (only one BB in 7 innings and 9 K's, seems like a weird demotion) and Kyle Drabek lost on waivers, I guess that means that both of Osuna and Castro are making the team? And if that's true, is this organization the worst in baseball, or professional sports?
