Ahoy hoy, everyone. While normally I would wait until Wednesday to put out a call for questions for this week’s mail bag, the rumour mill isn’t giving us much to work with at the moment, and the big baseball news stories of the day — the league nakedly trying to score P.R. points against the union by pretending to care about health and safety, the Rockies being an absolute disaster, and yet another man in the industry being outed as a known sex pest — are depressing and, sadly, not going away any time soon.
Plus, I missed last week’s mail bag, and some rather interesting Blue Jays developments have taken place since the previous one. So let’s have at it a day early, shall we? Submit your questions in the comments on this post!
Obligatory addendum:
Keep in mind, however, that the ability to post comments is for paid subscribers only.
Yes, this is a way to hopefully entice some people to upgrade to a paid membership. And yes, I’m sorry to have to do it like this, because I am very aware of the state of the world and how difficult finances are for a lot of people right now. As someone who lost his job in October and is now running this site as his only source of income, believe me, I know! Just please be sure that you know that I genuinely love and appreciate everyone who has signed up or has been reading regularly so far, paid or otherwise. (Though I feel that I must point out here that I learned over the last few years that limiting the comments to paying customers only makes for a much more respectful and inviting forum than the alternative — perhaps something else to consider if you’re on the fence about a paid subscription. Join us!)
Will the Jay's pitch themselves out of the playoffs ?
Hey Andrew, do you think the Jays will start the season with Biggio and Vladdy playing 3rd base? Or do you think the front office is waiting to see if a potential 3rd base option will have their price drop when spring training starts and they don’t have a contract?
