This guy is the life line of the Jays. He keeps them in games and without him I think the Jays would immediately drop and be the new bottom feeders of the AL East.<BR/><BR/>This whole AJ thing is kind of crazy. If this guy leaves the Jay's rotation that had the potential of being the powerhouse of the entire bigs (Doc, AJ, McGowan, and Marcum) will just turn out to be one ace and the rest AAAA players.<BR/><BR/>I hope the new CEO/President will give JP or the next GM a green light to sign AJ.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2432386330226362504.post-5593131200080508752008-09-29T23:10:00.000-04:002008-09-29T23:10:00.000-04:00Ack: My bad.

And I'm way behind on the podcasts.<BR/><BR/>MacBook: I think Doc likes the anonymity of Toronto, and I think he truly believes in the direction the team is going. At least that's what he says. I think he realizes what an extraordinary mission it is to make the playoffs in the AL East, and he wants the satisfaction to actually do it. He seems like the type of guy who wants to do the impossible. I mean, it's easy to go elsewhere and try and get that ring, but it seems like he really wants to do in Toronto and understands that as long as the team puts itself in a competitive spot, he's OK with what goes down. All he wants is a chance, and he sees JP and the team trying to give him that chance, so he's happy. <BR/><BR/>I think the losing does weigh on him. I think it already is. But I just pray that we can get over the hump while he's still a dominant pitcher in this league. The guy is incredible. To lose him would be a severe, severe blow. Hopefully we can re-up AJ and Doc this summer and show that we're ready to take on the empires, and the Rays, again.Navin Vaswani (@eyebleaf)https://www.blogger.com/profile/08445618400360263938noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2432386330226362504.post-15069164082544818062008-09-29T21:53:00.000-04:002008-09-29T21:53:00.000-04:00I wonder if one day Roy is going to wake up and ju...I wonder if one day Roy is going to wake up and just want out of Toronto because there is almost no chance of them passing the Red Sox, Yanks, and now the Rays in the near future.<BR/><BR/>If he is this dominating in the AL East just imagine him pitching in the NL or even moving to another AL East team mentioned above. Run support would be great.<BR/><BR/>I know the Doc has class and is trying to win with the Jays and not jumping ship but after a while, I wonder if the losing seasons and failed attempts to overcome the Yanks, Sox, and now Rays will start to weigh on him.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2432386330226362504.post-37447379044021291022008-09-26T16:47:00.000-04:002008-09-26T16:47:00.000-04:00just because I don't want to steal credit where cr...just because I don't want to steal credit where credit is due - it was the DJF maniacs who came up with the "Doc is a fucking cyborg" theme. I just incorporated a little of my own bullshit.<BR/><BR/>I'd like to say when I grow up I will be like Doc. Except for the fact I've got a year on him. Then again, he is from the future....The Ackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12374953233006854310noreply@blogger.com
