He's a beast, he definately deserves it. Halladay to 20 wins is what the Jays need to shoot for this year as there playoff dreams get slimmer and slimmer.
Wow!! theres a toronto blue jays thread on here!?!?!? awesome!! Been a jays fan since i was a kid in my ball days. Nice to see theres some other Jays fans around! I'm trying to get some tickets for the tigers home opener from stubhub or ebay to go across the river to see the jays! hopefully halladay shuts the tigers down bigtime! However, ticket prices are insane because now all of a sudden it seems everyone thinks the tigers are amazing, theyre a good team, yeah... but like.. $150 for a ticket... come on!!
Things look good for the Jays this year though. I like the addition of Thomas.. I wish we had a better catcher. Im not so comfortable with Zaun back there, while he's a good catcher... he's just not that good of a hitter I dont think. Im surprised though the Jays are leanin towards giving Towers the last starting spot over toma ohka. Towers stunk everytime he took the mound last year, at least ohka has had a good pre-season.
anyways... go jays!!
actually the jays are leaning towards giving that 5th spot to towers over john thomson - tomo ohka is a lock for that 4th spot w/ victor z starting out in the bullpen
Thats not what I heard on... i think it was TSN or Sportsnet this morning. They were saying the plan is to release thomson... and that yesterdays performance by ohka should help him lock up that final spot... Then i read something today, on... i think yahoo sports saying that it was going to be towers. oh well, all I know is Towers better damn well perform this year
you've got it a little mixed up - towers will more than likely lock up that final spot - but that's because he beat out thomson, not ohka - releasing thomson or not - it still shakes out halladay, burnett, chacin, ohka, and towers no matter how you slice it
Fair enough, I stand corrected. Like i said though... as for Towers, I just hope he has a good year, he was terrible last year.
Any word on how the bullpen is going to shake out? Hopefully thats not going to be a weakspot for us
The Blue Jays I think can make the playoffs but we our thin in depth when it comes to pitching and I think a big deal for a good 3rd pitcher so it moves Chacin to 4th which he would dominate a lot of pitchers if he had to line up against 4th and 5th pitchers in rotation!
