After weeks of speculation, and three days after the team released details of the proposal they submitted to the federal government, the Blue Jays confirmed on Friday evening that they’ve been given a National Interest Exemption that will allow them to host visiting clubs in Toronto beginning July 30. They’re coming home.
Oh man this is great. I live in Australia and I'm still stoked that they are going home. I'm not sure how many fans will be allowed to attend, but I think it will be joyous and loud.
This is great. And feels sensible in terms of protocols provided everyone follows the rule. Would be curious who, if anyone, is not vaccinated on the Jays given their willingness to confine themselves to a hotel room for each home stand would be more of an issue than someone doing so for three days as a visitor. Super glad they're back even though I doubt I'll get from Ottawa to a game this season. Any step towards normalcy feels great.

Pure. Delight. I look forward to the challenge of getting tickets to that weekend. And enjoying the coverage from Mr Stoeten.

Starting to tear up a bit just thinking about it. Stupid but there you go.
