Okay.

This team defines what a good team is. Did you see that folks? The Jays went into Yankee stadium and spanked them 6-0.

I'm feeling awfully good right now....And you know what? I'm gonna feel even better when they go for the sweep tomorrow. I'm feeling high fellas from winning. Now I could see how you guys felt last year when you went on that winning skid and came within a game of winning the World Series. That's just an awfully good feeling, eh? I empathize with you. I know I will this year

You know what's interesting guys? When a lot of critics, like yourselves, heh say we have pitching issues but guess what? Since the all-star break, the Toronto Bluejays have a 14-6 record with team 2.71 Era which is best in the majors.

Fellas, I can't help myself but when you're this good, all I gotta say is:

JUST.

BRING.

IT.

Mayor Sly said tonight on the news he still hasn't received our Canadian beer from the fleabag Toronto mayor. Sore losers much?

Different mayor now.

New guy isn't a crack smoker, just a welching d-bag. But in all fairness, he's French-Canadien so it's to be expected . . . . . .

Holy crap wonder if this has happened ever before. Maybe its stuck in customs. This is something CP need to remedy. Pile the mayors email with welching joke call him out. Also Toronto convention and visitors center.

John Tory's not "French-Canadien". Do you even know what you're talking about? Are you referring to the new Canadian Prime Minister?

It seems to me that Alex Anthopoulos did a nice job of building the Blue Jays into a damn good team. I'm glad to see him leave because I think it weakens the Blue Jays. I want the whole American League to be as weak as possible for the next two years while the window for the Royals is still open.

**srvy** · 10-30-2015, 10:17 AM

Congrats to @Royals & @MayorSlyJames in hard fought series. Beer in the mail.

Mailed on the 24th I think SLY is a little impatient for the beer. Also apparently has to much faith in the USPS.

Price, Red Sox agree to 7-year, $217M deal

BOSTON -- The Red Sox continued their Hot Stove hot streak on Tuesday, agreeing to terms with lefty David Price on a seven-year, $217 million contract, a source told MLB.com.

It is the largest contract ever awarded to a pitcher, narrowly edging out the $215 million extension Clayton Kershaw signed with the Dodgers and the $210 million pact Max Scherzer signed with the Nationals. The average annual value of $31 million per season ties the Tigers' Miguel Cabrera for the largest deal in history, regardless of position.

The agreement, which has not been confirmed by the club, was first reported by The Boston Globe.

The marquee move is the second major one made by Red Sox president of baseball operations Dave Dombrowski, who acquired premier closer Craig Kimbrel from the Padres in exchange for four prospects a couple of weeks ago.

After finishing in last place the last two seasons, the Red Sox have demonstrated during the early portion of the offseason how driven they are to become a major contender again.

Boston's deal with the 30-year-old Price is pending a physical.

Assuming the deal becomes official, Dombrowski would reunite with Price, the man he acquired in July 2014 while with the Tigers, only to trade him to the Blue Jays a year later when Detroit fell out of contention. Roughly a week after trading Price, Dombrowski parted ways with the Tigers.

The Red Sox hired Dombrowski on Aug. 18, and the veteran executive indicated several times that he would be assertive in rebuilding the pitching staff.

He's now done that by snagging two of the premier arms in the game.

Because Price was traded during the 2015 season, the Blue Jays weren't permitted to extend him a qualifying offer, and that means the Red Sox won't lose a Draft pick because of the signing.

According to Ken Rosenthal of FOXSports.com, Price's contract includes an opt-out clause after the 2018 season.

Good for Price, bad for Red Sox fans. I know its the price of doing business but honestly, way too much.
