(Instert Yu Darvish Pun Here)

Yeah, we lost out on Yu Darvish, but put yourself in the shoes of Texas Rangers fans. They lost two straight World Series. Toronto only lost out on a free agent signing. Last I checked there's a pretty big fish that still hasn't been signed.

As a side note, my first thought after the Jays lost out on Yu to the Rangers was that they were riding the hype just to create buzz about the team for next year amongst the casual fans (like a certain team in Miami was thought to be doing...)

My next thought was that the Jays had to stay silent, otherwise every time rumours run (see John Farrell) rampant they'd have to address it. This would have created a bad precedent when they've been pretty gung-ho on staying silent about the internal goings-on with the team.

There's still a lot of off season left to go and I still think that the young team that the Jays will field this year will have some learning to do. Either way it's gonna be an exciting season.

I miss baseball.
