Dan Shulman just announced on the Jays broadcast that, though he's unavailable because he calls games for ESPN Radio, MLB has allowed Sportsnet to use their own broadcasters for the Jays' first round-playoff games. Buck Martinez and Joe Siddall will have the call. Great news.

The Jays basically traded Marcus Stroman and most of the money they would have spent on a Stroman extension for Ryu, Simeon Woods Richardson and Anthony Kay. Not bad. Not bad at all.

Genuinely hard to overstate how pathetic it is celebrate the chickenshit team that waited until the eighth inning of their last scheduled matchup of the season to try to get even because of a months-old game in which they humiliated themselves out of the playoffs. Lol

Didn’t feel great this morning so backed out of Xmas Eve dinner. Felt bad about the idea of cancelling but knew I really shouldn’t risk it. Managed to get my hands on a rapid test through an amazing friend with access to them and it came up positive. My advice: don’t risk it!

Teams across baseball, sources say, can eat shit.
To be clear: This is not just a Red Sox thing. Teams across baseball, sources say, are concerned with the ramifications of unvaccinated players not being allowed to play in Toronto. If the rules don't change, they could offer a significant competitive advantage for the Blue Jays.

The Jays have $64M in commitments next season. Put another way, they’re at $135M this year, $38M of which is Ray/Semien/Roark. Ryu and Grichuk off the books after ‘23, when Teo extension would kick in. Bo and Vlad not really pricey until 25/26. Ray and Semien deals very doable.

We could stop the pandemic. Our leaders don’t want to. “You’re on your own” has been a goal of conservatives for decades. This is that ideology functioning as designed, letting people go broke or die for the sake of business. And people will vote for it again. Total insanity.
