I guess it's my own fault for making a stupid typo in the first place. You win this round.

He no longer has any sources in the organization. He is fear mongering, as Jeff Blair dabbled with earlier in spring training.
From what I've seen, he's been taking ground balls since the beginning of March, and has been swinging off a tee for the last two weeks. I've heard June 1, and continue to trust that timeline.
Mind you, this was the same station that said, definitively, Marcus Stroman was done for all of 2015. Then Marcus Stroman may come back for the playoffs as a reliever. Then Marcus Stroman may come back for September but only as a reliever. Then were surprised to hear that he had been on a throwing program since early June, and would be starting in September. Not only are they short on sources (even shorter now that their buddies have left town), but they're research is putrid.
Get instagram there, you old curmudgeon.

Also, my pick for first homerun had to be Pillar. (a Derek Jeter tip of the cap to Bert)

Zach Phillips cleared waivers, I would have liked Atkins to take a flier on him. Could have been a decent LHP out of the pen.

I was so happy about the Jays flying under the radar in the off-season, with good but modest expectations from experts this season with other teams making headlines.
And then Stark makes this prediction:

McCown just mentioned Travis again. This time, saying (inexplicably) "if he's healthy today, where does he play?" (The remainder of the round table is silent....inexplicably)
Me: "Uh..second base?"
Bob, continuing: "I think he's on the bench!"
Me: "(Expletive) this dude...he's starting at 2nd and leading off"
Bob: "the only way he gets a chance is if Tulowitzki gets hurt"
Me: "what the..."
Bob: ...
(I turn the radio off in disgust, only to turn it back on 3 minutes later...almost like watching a car crash and not being able to turn away)
Perkins (old moronic writer on the round table): "I talked to somebody in the organization about Donaldson...I worry about him...they said they didn't know how he reacts when things go poorly.."
Bob: "like a prolonged slump"
Rest of the round table: "yeah...good point"
Me (turning off the radio): "these guys are drunk"

There aren't enough unnecessary pauses in your McCown transcripts.
Otherwise, yeah, I don't get how he became nearly as big of a deal as he is. He's a grade-a moron. He probably hasn't ever heard of the food chain either. I wonder if he got his education at Bovine University.

Watching this makes me hope (as unlikely as it is) that Montreal gets a team back. I find the Jays (and to a certain extent the Raps) being labelled Canada's team a bit awkward. Expo's were the first team, and I would love to see a Montreal team in the NL again. And this is coming from a diehard Jays, who knows that Expo's returning would hurt Toronto's ability to broadcast nationally. Come on Bell, Rogers own a team, get yourself one and TSN some none Curling or Lumberjack content.

Pedro having some control issues with that pitch.
Clearly a terrible sign for short pitchers everywhere. And quietly in the concourse, Zaun gives a fist pump.
