So the postseason ended sooner than we hoped it would. Sometimes you give it all you’ve got, but you just come up short. And though we wanted it for our boys, though we hoped and cheered for that next win, it just wasn’t in the cards this time around. And that’s ok. Being sports fans means we’ve got to be ok with the losses; they make the wins that much sweeter. But that being said, it’s critical we take a…
What ever would the Toronto Blue Jays do without their fearless parrot smashing balls out of the park on an almost daily basis? Well, for one thing, they might not have made it nearly this far into the postseason without last week’s absolutely earth shattering 11th inning walk off home run. Slugger and first baseman Edwin Encarnacion comes through for our Jays time and time again. It’s hard to narrow down just six reasons Edwing deserves to be showered in…

This year, luckily for Ross Atkins, he inherited an already talented squad and just had to fill some holes. How’d he do? Pretty darn well for a rookie GM. The first trade Atkins made a week prior…
