http://ghostrunneronfirst.com/ - Blue Jays Detritus from OPS to OMG!
Though it's been a while since any Jays news moved me (apparently I've been writing for the AV Club under the pseudonym "Jason Heller"); a recent twitter back-and-forth between yours truly and the class of the Blue Jays blogosphere focussed on hats and logos and shook me from my doldrums. The ...

.nobr br { display: none }Projections are a weird thing. The grinding mathematical efficiency of the whole thing leaves a bad taste in many people's mouths. The wide range of offensive projections run the gamut and give hope to those searching for it, provided they search long enough. Jeff ...

The trade rumor horseshit is cutting me both ways right now. I have no interest in peddling half-truths yet the Jays rumours all revolve around Roy Halladay and it makes me sad. I guess we'd better get as many of these (well-received, thanks to everyone for their feedback) Halladay pitch ...

The Gold Gloves are a joke and I'm
an idiot for getting worked up about them. The
Jays were pretty much the worst defensive team in baseball this year so I (we?) don't even have a horse in the race. But fuck Torii Hunter. Jeter I can deal with (he had ...

Things just ain't right inside my thoughthole these days; thankfully I'm well aware and able to trace the source. November despair mixed with general Blue Jays malaise is leading me down a dangerous path though I'm going without a fight. The heavily-rumored (way to keep it close to the vest AA!) ...

It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say over the past few weeks I've come close to losing my religion. Closer than you think and closer than I'm ready to admit. The offseason lends itself to this kind of hyperbole and horseshit, but I've had enough. Mix in a mild existential criss and I'm ready to ...

If, for some inexplicable reason, you mention "star-six-nine"
to someone, you stand to get one of a
couple distinct reactions. For people of a certain age— born in the 90s or later— you are likely to receive a quizzical look. People over ...

Heat-Seeking Missiles. Bloodhounds. Foxes.
The Jays baseball operations brass sit around a sterile office deep inside Fortress Rogers. Tim Hortons cups are strewn across the bland table, a large board full of player names and positions holds a prominent role on the wall. Tony LeCava: ...and the value of those two draft picks certainly ...

Paul Beeston has been named the full-time President and CEO of the Toronto Blue Jays. Praise be unto the Beest. Interesting tidbits about Paul Beeston: he spent the last year looking for a successor, which is why the Jays did nothing but shed salary under his stewardship. He righted the ...

A good post at Batters Box got me thinking about the Jays continued failings in late innings, close games, or other such settings for inevitable heartbreak. The tenants of Blue Jays baseball under JP were clear, the bulk of which I agree with. Except one: the value of utility players. The Jays ...
