Some of those guys had the Blue Jays winning the AL East, LMAO at everyone picking Washington to win the NL East..

Well, didn't everyone say the Nationals were World Series bound?

It's brings stability to my life to know that Rod Black is still a terrible announcer.

 

[LeafSteel]

Can any of these guys play hockey?

The Leafs may be wise to give them an invite.

All the broadcasting talent he ever had was in that mustache. Once that went, so did his ability to call a game.

1:42 - Dat bat flip.

1:16 - Did the Jays really have that logo for ~12 years? I thought that showed up with the black unis.

"4 home runs! Never before has a blue jay done that, until................now."

"HOLY COW!"

Honestly, Black was good at calling the action, but as soon as he tried to offer filler, he was cringy.

 

[The Nemesis]

Oh wow. Ouch. Though iirc it's Kevin Millar, so that explains a lot.

 

[Just Rude]

Good Lord. My daughter would have had better picks by choosing teams by her favourite colours.

 

[TootooTrain]

He's not the only person to project Seattle going far. Was the popular opinion at the time.

The Sox? Yea that's poor.

 

[weems]

If Stroman comes back at even 80% of what he was before, this is the best team in baseball.

Things I miss from that era, notable in the video:

Delgado
The blue version of that uni with the red trim
Lou Pinella
the rays using an actual ray as their logo instead of the "it means ray of light" fake out bs. Also the full name "devil rays" and even the rainbow gradient wordmark
Vernon wells when he was good and not overpaid.

Things I don't miss:
That turf
Rod black calling games
Eric hinske
Carlos Tosca
the t-hugging anthro bird logo ( though I like it in a so bad it's good way.)

 

[The Nemesis]

The Sox? Yea that's poor.

Also had the angels win their division, tigers win theirs, and white Sox as the other wild card. Yeesh

The Sox? Yea that's poor.

Never understood the Chi Sox or Bo Sox hype. They got names, but they still had huge question marks.

I thought the Indians were going to win the central so my picks wouldn't have been much better. Nobody expected the Astros to be this good this fast.

 

[napoleon in rags]

Just means they're too dependent on the homer, double and walk

If they start leading in singles and triples as well, they'll really be in trouble.

 

[Eyedea]

Imagine if the Jays weren't top 5 in grounding into double plays too.

 

[HellasLEAF]

15-1 lol

 

[Cloned]

Imagine if the Jays weren't top 5 in grounding into double plays too.

If Tulo was hitting the way he's capable of hitting this game would have been 20-1. Edwin would have had another AB and probably hit the HR cycle.

So EE ab = auto HR. I like the sounds of that

Well that's the one thing the jays and leafs have in common. They both can't play hockey lol
