Toronto Bue Jays---Hot Stove Preview

Thu, 19 Nov 2009 15:58:06 +0000

The Blue Jays should get the Roy Halladay mess cleaned up before the time bomb explodes. The lesson learned by the plight of the Twins with Johan Santana should provide enough reason as to the danger of waiting. All things being equal, the Blue Jays aren't that bad.
