Objectively speaking I would say that the Yankees are the second best team in the AL East. We’re looking like a ~85 win team at the moment (with the Rays) while the Jays look like a 90 win team. We should contend for the Wild Card at least.

Choose the sword, and you will join me
Choose the ball, and you join your mother… in death
You don’t understand my words, but you must choose
So… come boy, choose life or death

Da Jays are stockin’ up on penis refrahnces to confuse pedophile prosecutahs. This way ya can talk about Johnsons and Dickeys and get away with it.
(Pauses for effect. Breathes into microphone. Fumbles with touch-screen phone system, which to him might as well be in Farsi).
An’ ya can affawd tah trade a catchin’ prospect fah Dickey, ’cause they can find a catchah in the minors. Literally. Dickey just needs one tah handle his patented knuckleball, a combination strikeout pitch and westahn-grip handjob.
Me, I nevah leave my kids alone with Canadians. That monahpoly money they got up there is too enticin’. It’s biz-ah. It’s just awd. I don’t want my son takin’ a ten-inchah for a two-ney.
Here’s the MInkman.

I still hit harder than the Blue Jays lineup and I’m a hundred and twelve years old.
No matter what they Jays do there will still be 25,000 empty seats in that building. Didn’t we see this in 2011 with our friends at Fenway. What’s the over/under on when Jose Reyes pulls his hamstring, strains a groin or pulls a buttock muscle doing one of his pussy handshakes after a triple in April? Why everyone thinks he is this all time immortal is beyond me. Wasn’t he on a team that gagged up September leads twice & then pulled himself after one AB so he could win a battle title. This is the guy you are pinning your hopes on? Josh Johnson will probably be hurt by May. Fuck you Toronto, the only sport you give a shit about is locked out.
With the offseason additions made by Theo Epstein clone Alex Anthropolus The 2012 Toronto Blue Jays will supplant the 2011 Boston Red Sox as the greatest team in baseball history. With the addition of star SS Jose Reyes the blue Jays have a player who is almost as good as Jed Lowrie once was. Josh Johnson is like 2007 Josh Beckett without the surly game day swagger that made Beckett the best postseason pitcher of all time, excluding 2008-2009. The Jays will be good but they still will miss the leadership of John Farrell, who commanded respect from his Blue Jay team until they fell out of contention. Make no mistake like the 2011 Sox the Jays are here to stay.

If championships were won in December, the Red Sox would have indeed fielded the greatest team ever in the 2011 season.

Jays are a dirty team. For the first time in a long time we aren’t the legit favorite to win the east.
Should be a great year.

3 pitchers going from the NL to AL, 1 oft-injured shortstop, 1 guy recovering from steroid use, and a partridge and a pear tree.

Do we get to win this time?
Duh December 19, 2012 11:35
Prove it on the field. We’ve all seen teams have great off-seasons. You still have to win games and that is not going to happen in December.
