| Roster Maneuvering Brought To You By The Rule V Draft |
| How does it feel to be Les Walrond? Imagine going from a World Series winning organization to a waiver pick up of the Toronto Blue Jays, and now being sold into indentured servitude to a Japanese baseball sweatshop. Enjoy pitching on three days rest while trained assassins keep their nun

| Bleaching Your Teeth, Smiling Flash, Talking Trash Under Your Breath |
| The biggest Jay news today was that J.P. Ricciardi told reporters that he was not averse to the idea of going 5 years on A.J. Burnett. That is potentially news because it's not clear that the Yankees or the Red Sox are willing to go to 5 years. Ricciardi stressed

| No Manny, Says JP |
| Here's what Ricciardi told Jayson Stark of ESPN : "We won't be involved with Manny. That keeps coming up, but it's not true. I think one reason is that Manny has always liked it in Toronto. He's hit more home runs here than anybody. And he likes the city, because

| George Steinbrenner Loses Control |
| No, I'm not writing about fine motor skills. Those were likely lost a long time ago. I'm writing about some unexpected events that transpired today when baseball owners unanimously approved Steinbrenner's youngest son Hal as the controlling owner of the New York Yankees. What does this mean? Absolutely nothing. The

| Baseball Faced Speculation |
| As left handed relievers continue to be the only free agents signing contracts, my thoughts wander to a particular southpaw who comes out of the Blue Jays bullpen to a little musical number that I like to call Duality by Slipknot. Since even before P.R. Ricciardi's proclamation that the budgie

| No Free Agents For the Jays |
| Hmmm. So J.P. Ricciardi is at it again. The master of excuses, misdirection, and lowered expectations has kindly informed the baseball world that A.J. Burnett is the Jays' one and only free agent target, and that if A.J. goes elsewhere: "I don't think there's anybody else out there that, for

| Typical Rumblings From Blue Jays Way |
| A lot of Jays fans, after all these years of glorious underachievement, have come to the conclusion that JP Ricciardi is some kind of fucking moron. I don't think P.R. Ricciardi, as Parkes aptly calls him, is at all a fucking moron. In fact, I figure that when he's not
